WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale (SEIS) Test

emotional intelligence

This self-report measure assesses perceived emotional intelligence, including typical ways of attending to, understanding, and managing emotions. The Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale (SEIS) presents 33 items rated on a 5-point agreement scale and is typically completed in about 15 minutes.

Scores are commonly used to describe an individual’s self-perceived emotional skills and to support screening or research applications; results should be interpreted in the context of other clinical information and potential response biases inherent to self-report. The measure is attributed to Cooper, J. T., Dornheim, L., Golden, C. J., Haggerty, D. J., Hall, L. E., Malouff, J. M., and Schutte, N. S.

Administration involves endorsing statements based on how well each describes the respondent, with higher ratings generally reflecting greater perceived emotional intelligence. The Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale (SEIS) is not a diagnostic instrument and should not be used as a sole basis for clinical decision-making.
