Abstract

This study was aimed at exploring the relationship between emotional intelligence and coping skills. The sample consisted of 691 (331 females; 360 males) undergraduate students who study different departments of the Faculties of Education and Technical Education, and department of physical education and sports teaching of School of Physical Education and Sports at Mugla Sıtkı Kocman University. Emotional intelligence levels and coping styles of undergraduate students were measured using the Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory (Bar-On, 1997) and The Inventory of Styles of Coping with Stress (Ozbay & Sahin, 1997). Pearson product-moment correlation analysis and structural equation modeling were employed to analyze data. Emotional intelligence was found to be significantly correlated with coping skills.
