Emotional Intelligence, Resilience and Life Satisfaction in Sports Participants

Abstract

The present research investigation set out to assess how athletes emotional intelligence, resilience, and life satisfaction relate to one another. Considering demographics including gender, age, educational attainment, and family structure, there would be notable group disparities in life satisfaction, resilience, and emotional intelligence among athletes. 200 participants in all (95 men and 105 women) participated in the current study, and information had been obtained from several sports institutions in Faisalabad.  Since all of the data for this study was collected at one point in time, a cross-sectional correlation method of analysis was used. Psychological measures were used to get the data: 1) The Schutte Self Report Emotional Intelligence Test (SSEIT) was used to test Emotional Intelligence (EI). 2) The degree of resilience was assessed using the Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RS) 3) Sport participant’s life satisfaction has been measured using the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS).. The results of the present inquiry demonstrated that each of the variables had a significant connection with all of the other variables. The outcomes of the research revealed that implementing emotional intelligence and resilience training into athletic involvement might boost athletes' psychological wellness and their general sense of accomplishment in life.
