An assessment of students' emotional intelligence, learning outcomes, and academic efficacy: A correlational study in higher education.

The purpose of this empirical study is to investigate the effects of Emotional Intelligence (EI) on learning outcomes (social, cognitive, self-growth outcomes and satisfaction with the university experience) of students in Chinese research universities. This study further examines the mediating role...
