ABSTRACT
The present study proposes to see if there is any association between Emotional Intelligence and perceived parental care and overprotection styles. Emotional intelligence is the ability to identify and manage one’s own emotions as well as the emotions of others. Perceived parental styles are the perception of styles of parental behavior by children or adolescents. A sample of 112 undergraduate college students was taken. The students completed 2 Self Measure Questionnaires. The results showed that there was positive correlation between Paternal care and Emotional Intelligence and negative correlation between Paternal overprotection and Emotional Intelligence. There was no correlation between maternal care, maternal overprotection and Emotional Intelligence.
