Abstract

This study aims at determining the level of emotional intelligence and of the ability to solve problems, and their relation for a sample of students at ISTPSA at the University of Biskra. The authors used the correlational descriptive and the comparative descriptive methods. In addition, they applied emotional intelligence and problem-solving scales on a simple sample of sixty-four students. Findings show that the informants’ emotional intelligence is low unlike the problem-solving skills that are high. Besides, there is an average positive statistical relation between emotional intelligence and problem-solving. Finally, there are no statistically significant differences regarding emotional intelligence and the problem solving due to the educational level.
