Emotional Intelligence, General Wellbeing and Acceptance Action among Young Adults: A Correlational Study

Emotional intelligence helps navigate challenges effectively, while general wellbeing reflects overall life satisfaction. By cultivating emotional intelligence, individuals can better navigate their internal experiences and interpersonal interactions, contributing to improved general wellbeing. Further, Acceptance and action encourages individuals to accept their internal experiences and take committed action aligned with their values. This study investigates the intricate interplay between emotional intelligence, general wellbeing, and acceptance action among young adults aged 18 to 35 years. Results reveal positive correlations between emotional intelligence and general wellbeing (r= 0.63, p<.01), there is slightly negative correlation between general wellbeing and acceptance action (r= -0.068, p<.01). However, there is a negative correlation surfaced between emotional intelligence and acceptance action (r= -0.61, p<.01). These findings highlight the necessity of comprehending these dynamics to foster mental health and resilience in young adults. Future research should delve into the underlying mechanisms driving these relationships and develop targeted interventions to promote psychological wellbeing and adaptive coping strategies in this population.
