Introduction-The earliest roots of emotional intelligence
can be traced to Darwin's work on the importance of emotional expression for
survival and second adaptation. In the 1900s, even though traditional
definitions of intelligence emphasized cognitive aspects such as memory and
problem-solving, several influential researchers in the intelligence field of
study had begun to recognize the importance of the non-cognitive aspects. For
instance, as early as 1920, E.L. Thorndike used the term social intelligence to
describe the skill of understanding and managing other people.
The
first use of the term "Emotional Intelligence" is usually attributed
to Wayne Payne's doctoral thesis, A Study of Emotion : Developing Emotional
Intelligence from 1985. However, prior to this, the term "emotional
intelligence" had appeared in Leuner (1966). Greenspan (1989) also put
forward an EI model, followed by Salovey and Mayer (1990), and Goleman (1995).
