Q

Emotional intelligence (EI)

A

Individual differences in emotion regulation
–> People high in EI have the ability to use ER in a flexible manner, consistent with one’s goals (adaptive)
3 levels:
1. Knowledge: What you know
2. Abilities: What you can do
3. Trait: What you really do

Q

Motivational processes

A
  • optimistic dispositions –> increased engagement
  • Activation of approach behavior
  • More effort and attention
  • High self-motivation
  • High self-control
  • Delay momentary gratification
    coping
  • proximity to goal-related stimuli
17
Q

Interpersonal processes

A

Regulation of interpersonal relationships in academic setting

  • emotion expression for social communication
  • emotion perception for coordinating social interactions
18
Q

Empirical relations between TEI and Achievement

A
  • -> Modest to moderate validity for TEI in prediction of achievment
  • -> TEI has small, but important positive effect on academic achievement
  • -> Link is indirect
19
Q

4 components of EI

A
  1. recognizing emotional states in self and others emotional awareness & recognition
  2. using emotions to guide thought and behavior
  3. understanding how emotions shape one’s own behavior & behavior of others
  4. regulating one’s own emotions and the emotions of others
20
Q
  1. Recognizing emotional states in self and others
A
  1. Emotion awareness: Conscious recognition of own feelings = Anterior Insula, ACC, vmPFC
  2. Emotion recognition: Recognizing others emotional feelings = Amygdala (Tagging function to vmPFC), Insula, ACC
    Simulation hypothesis: The same brain regions activate when seeing emotion in someone else and having the emotion oneself
21
Q
  1. Using emotions to facilitate thought and behavior
A
  1. Empathy and prosocial behavior = vlPFC, insula and temporoparietal junction
    - Emotion contagion = vlPFC and Insula
    - Self-other control = Temporoparietal junction
  2. Emotional memory = Amygdala
22
Q
  1. Understanding how emotions shape behavior
A

Theory of Mind (ToM): Ability to infer that the thoughts and behaviors of others are influences by underlying feelings = vmPFC

23
Q
  1. Emotion regulation
A

Modulating ongoing emotional response in accordance with individual or social goals = vlPFC, vmPFC and Amygdala

24
Q

Core emotion network

A

Amygdala, vmPFC, anterior insula, ACC
