CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE OF YOUNG PEOPLE WITH DIFFERENT ACCENTUATIONS OF CHARACTER
Abstract
The purpose of the work is to show the results of a theoretical and empirical study of the features of the emotional intelligence of young people with different accents and styles of humor.
Methodology. 88 young men of late adolescence took part in the study - students of Kyiv secondary schools. Methods: 1) theoretical analysis and generalization of scientific literature on research issues; 2) diagnostic standardized methods: diagnostic test of character accentuation types (A.E. Lychko); emotional self-awareness test (O.I. Vlasova); questionnaire of emotional intelligence (D.V. Lusin); empathy questionnaire (Mehrabiana); questionnaire "Styles of humor" (Martin; 3) Descriptive statistics and the Pearson correlation coefficient were used to analyze the relationships between the results of the empirical study.
The results. The researchers found that the most developed interpersonal emotional intelligence is characteristic of young people with a labile accentuation type, who are characterized by low self-awareness and high mood variability. High intrapersonal emotional intelligence is significantly associated with the astheno-neurotic type of accentuation, which is characterized by increased mental and physical fatigue and irritability in everyday life. This type of accentuation of the character turned out to be predominant among the researched (22%).
Regarding the use of humor by the researched people, it was found that young men with demonstrative and hyperthymic types of character accentuations prefer an aggressive style of humor, which is destructive in content and directed at others. This significantly distinguishes them from young men of the age-standard development, for whom the most characteristic is a self-supporting style of humorous attitude to life events, which has a constructive meaning and productively affects the personality of the young man and his environment.
