So does this mean I'm emotionally dead or just brain dead, or that I'm just dead and don't know it?

It doesnt seem to work if you have scripts enabled.....

I disabled them again and it works fine....

It messed up on me. Said my emotional IQ was 0 (I'm not that cold dammit!) - but then I looked at the answer portion and it didn't record any of my answers. Just not working for me

I had trouble with the test as well, at least in getting my score. I had to work my "results" out by hand. I scored 145, which ain't bad at all, dammit.

40 by hand. Though no answer ever actually fit even remotely close.

The test didn't work and now I'm an emotional wreck. Thanks, Dude.

I never gave myself the chance to work it out by hand. I was so damn depressed after scoring a zero

Same here. I'm too lazy to do it by hand.

Self-awareness at Work
How Reacting to Emotional Triggers Affects Professional Performance and your Level of Emotional Intelligence (EI)
© Joni Rose

Aug 7, 2006

One of the EI competencies is self-awareness. Being aware of how your emotions affect your performance will help you respond intelligently to emotional triggers.
Employers no longer just look for a set of industry related skills. They look for leadership potential and that includes a high level of emotional intelligence (EI). The competencies that make up EI include self-awareness, social awareness, self management and relationship management.

Being aware of your emotional triggers and why they trigger you is key to practicing emotional intelligence principles. Emotional triggers are events or personality types that cause an intense emotional response.

Common emotional triggers are:

Blatant incompetence
Poor executive leadership (no demonstration of values, inconsistent, poor decision making, unavailable or unapproachable)
Being overlooked for credit, accolades or promotions
Arrogance or inflated egos
Patronization or micro-management of subordinates
Back stabbing
Verbal attacks
Lack of communication
These are things that will frustrate and upset the best of us. The important point here is to see if they trigger intense, long-lasting reactions with ramifications that make it difficult to remain rational.

If one or more of these emotional triggers affects you, take some time to sole search or work with a counselor to uncover the root cause behind your powerful emotional responses to these triggers. A look back to your family of origin could reveal relationship issues with parents, authorities or other key figures that have manifested themselves in your professional life.

Once you identify why you are so triggered by, for example, blatant incompetence, you can then catch yourself responding with your gut instead of staying in your head and responding with intelligence and rationality to the work situation.

It is crucial to your professional development that you deal with these triggers head-on. They can cause major career derailment, severe stress and emotional burn out if not taken seriously.

The next three articles on self-awareness will ask questions to evaluate your level of self-awareness and offer suggestions for ways of improving your EI.

It didnt answer to me either.

Make sure you all DISABLE SCRIPTS when you take the test (Or it doesnt work)

Im lucky i found an archived copy of the test :)

Ok - anyone else think about how this sounds?

ROFL

Yeah, well, you made me LMAO!

How do you disable scripts?

Here's another EQ test for those who are interested. This one is long (about 1/2 hour) and they are using it for research purposes if you consent. http://www.psychtests.com/tests/iq/emotional_iq_r2_access.html

I took it. As far as these tests go, it's pretty good.

My results: Results of the Emotional IQ Test


Your score = 129



What does your score mean?
Your Emotional IQ is excellent - much higher than average. This means that, in general, you are able to express your feelings clearly in appropriate situations. You effectively communicate, interact with others and deal with stress. These skills will certainly bring you long-term benefits such as stronger relationships, better health and personal happiness.

124 - Same description

112, which makes me average. Guess I have a lot to do before I become an emotional powerhouse

What does your score mean? Your Emotional IQ is in the average range. Essentially, you're able to recognize and deal with your own emotions and those of others in a reasonably effective manner. Since your score is in the mid-range, however, you are not taking full advantage of your potential. By learning and practicing new skills and more effective ways of dealing with people, you could increase your EIQ.




Yeah, I expected as much. I'm not very emotional, been called a cold hearted bitch on many occasions~for reasons known to me. I don't try to be cruel to others, just don't see why they get hung up on some of the issues they so.


I know I need to be more understanding with people. I'm not much of a people person.

I gots a 72! Not quite double that previous one though.

From what I can see, you're doing a pretty good job of ovcoming that obstacle.

It's different in real life though ride. A lot of my friends and family hate me because I speak the gods honest truth and they hate me for it. Many would like to see me hurt because of it. I can't seem to help it if they ask me my opinion of something. I pay a price for speaking my mind.

Sometimes I think it would be better to hold my tongue, but then I feel I'm not being honest about things.
I dunno. Maybe silence IS golden.

Dont ever believe that crap Imp. I had to go that route, and while it was good for everyone else, I questioned my own sanity. I'm not doing it anymore. I'll keep my mouth shut if it's in my own best interest, but dont press me and think I'll do it forever.
You have a gift, Imp, and never look at it as a burden. Open your mouth and be heard. If you dont, you'll just be another face in the crowd.

They don't like what I have to say.
On one hand, they ask me so I feel I have every right to tell them, that's when it goes wrong. Lately I've questioning my own sanity, but maybe it's best to be quiet.
On the other hand I don't want to be another face in the crowd and feel I have the right to speak my mind without a 'consequence' to be paid'. get my drift?:confused:

Theen what youre saying is you lack a tactful approach. Am I correct?

Kinda, yeah. I lay it on the line, tell the truth. But the truth hurts which makes others mad and lash out. In more ways then one.

My ex did that to me all the time. No tact whatsoever. Telling someone the truth really takes thought so you dont boil the blood of the person youre telling. Unless thats the response youre looking for.

Nah. I never intend to boil the blood of someone else, just happens that way. I don't mean to be tactless, just not good at candy coating things. It seems it would be better if I could learn to do so.

I have a bad habit of doing the same things. Oh well, I'm getting too old to change.

Silence isn't my forte either. If someone doesn't want to hear, they shouldn't ask. My friends tell me that after I have done the soft active listening stage I get what they would term "edgy, or harsh". What that means is I lose the gloves and get real.

I only do it when they keep saying the same crap over and over and avoiding the glaring reality in their face. Now that I'm getting old, I only do that with close friends who trust my love and judgement. If someone does not feel the love they will dismiss all advice no matter how correct and label it as an attack with a personal agenda. Thus it is wasted energy.

When it is important that someone truly hear what you say, you have to find the path to their heart first, so they are open. After that, well, it is up to them. I back down. Life is too short.

Advice and sometimes truth is useless if it falls on deaf ears.

This sounds mean maybe but it is also my experience that some people like to wallow. I don't have time to wallow in the pool of crap they have created.
