WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment

Adolescent Emotional Intelligence Test - Symptoms and Signs

This measure is designed to assess emotional functioning in adolescents; the Adolescent Emotional Intelligence Test provides a structured self-report profile of perceived emotional skills. It is intended to support clinical screening and case formulation when questions arise about emotion awareness and regulation.

The instrument includes 40 items and typically requires about 20 minutes to complete. Content domains commonly referenced include recognition and understanding of one’s emotions, emotion regulation, use of emotions in goal-directed activities, and emotional flexibility; it is attributed to Peter Salovey and John D. Mayer. Results from the Adolescent Emotional Intelligence Test should be interpreted in the context of developmental level, presenting concerns, and collateral information rather than used as a stand-alone diagnostic indicator.
