Joseph, Jin, Newman and O'Boyle, Journal of Applied Psychology 100(2), 2015, 298-342. Meta-analysis of mixed (self-report) emotional intelligence: strong overlap with self-efficacy, self-rated performance, conscientiousness, emotional stability, extraversion and general mental ability; smaller link with supervisor-rated performance than earlier reviews; negligible relationship to performance once covariates were controlled; conclusion that mixed measures capture a blend of self-perception and ability.
