    (UAS, Dharwad, 2008) Arati.S.Angadi; V.S.Yadav
    This was an ex-post-facto study to analyse emotional intelligence and stress among working couples conducted on a sample of 310 working couples of Dharwad city. The age of the respondent ranged between 24 and 69 years. The couples (respondents) were selected based on the criteria that both of them should be working for atleast 5 years, either of the couples should be a primary school teachers, who had been married for atleast 5 years and having atleast one child. Emotional intelligence questionnaire developed by Dulewicz and Higgs (2001) was used to measure emotional intelligence. Stress scale developed by Bhagwatwar (2000) was used to measure stress. The results revealed that there was no significant relationship between demographic characteristics and emotional intelligence and stress. On the basis of overall results of emotional intelligence it can be concluded that among the couples about 11, 7 and 82 per cent of them had developed lower, average and higher level of emotional intelligence, respectively. It was also found that there was a significant relationship between the couples on stressors. There was no significant relationship between emotional intelligence and stress. Even then emotional resilience and interpersonal sensitivity were negatively related to stress among the couples. Contrarily, intuitiveness and stress were positively related. But selfawareness, conscientiousness and overall emotional intelligence were not related to stress among the couples.
