What is emotional intelligence?

Emotional intelligence (EQ) is the ability to notice, understand, and manage emotions, both your own and other people’s. It shapes how you handle stress, communicate, lead, and build relationships. This test follows the widely used five-part model popularized by psychologist Daniel Goleman.

Self-awarenessKnowing what you feel and why
Self-regulationManaging impulses and moods
MotivationStaying driven through setbacks
EmpathyUnderstanding how others feel
Social skillsWorking with and influencing people

You’ll see two kinds of questions: statements to rate, and short scenarios where you pick what you’d most likely do. Answer honestly rather than how you’d like to be.

This is an original self-reflection tool based on Goleman’s five-component model of emotional intelligence. It is not a clinical or scientifically validated psychometric test, and it is not a diagnosis or professional advice. Your answers stay in your browser and are not stored or sent anywhere.
