EQ test

Emotional intelligence in four areas: noticing feelings, understanding where they come from, handling your own, and handling them with other people. Part knowledge, part how you usually act.

What it measures

  • Perceiving — Noticing emotions in words, faces and situations.
  • Understanding — Knowing what causes emotions and how they change.
  • Managing yourself — Handling your own emotions so they help rather than hijack.
  • Handling others — Responding to other people’s emotions well.

How solid these are

EQ research has two traditions: ability tests with right answers, and self-report scales. This test uses both. The “right” answers for situations follow what emotion researchers and most people agree on, and are recalibrated from everyone who takes the test.
