Mattingly, V., & Kraiger, K. (2019). Can emotional intelligence be trained? A meta-analytical

investigation. Human Resource Management Review, 29(2), 140-155.

The article mainly focuses on emotional intelligence (EI) and if it can be trained. It after

understanding the benefits of having an emotionally intelligent workforce. Through the

meta-analysis of more than 50 archival studies on training emotional intelligence, the

authors were able to establish the effective between natural emotional intelligence and

trained intelligence. The result for the research showed that there was a “moderate

positive effect,” for training EI. Finally the authors presented the implications of such a

practice and the provided insight on further research in EI training. The topic is very

instrumental in this scenario, because it helps to expand on EI especially, whereby a

workforce is lacking EI. For that reason it is safe to say that the research us sufficiently

comprehensive, despite the fact that it relied on secondary data sources. Both authors are

the members of the Colorado State University, Department of Psychology, seemingly

experts in Industrial Psychology, therefore fit to publish in this field of study.

elements of self-mastery but at the same time helps to master emotional intelligence to

the point of translating in into on-the-job capabilities. Like teamwork will required

relationship management and social awareness. This book is therefore sufficiently

comprehensive to the topic of discussion, and it can help to master EI especially in the

case for leaders or just creating an EI background in an organization. For that reason this

scholarly article will fit in the literature review, because it dives deep into EI, bringing

out new concepts that can be used to further the discussion of EI. The author is an expert

in behavioral sciences and has been able to publish various books on behavioral sciences,

mainly focusing on leadership, which makes him fit to publish in this field of emotional

intelligence.

Hodzic, S., Scharfen, J., Ripoll, P., Holling, H., & Zenasni, F. (2018). How efficient are

emotional intelligence trainings: A meta-analysis. Emotion Review, 10(2), 138-148.

This journal mainly focuses on efficiency of EI trainings, it is relevant because it can be

utilized to complement the first source that focused on whether EI training is possible.

After establishing that EI training can be achieved it is only logical to check the

efficiency of the trainings. That is why the authors performed a meta-analysis through

going through 24 studies that mainly focused on EI healthy adults. The results established

that the efficiency of EI training different on different scales, the EI model affected the

efficiency and the dimensions of the four branch model of EI also affected the efficiency.

At the end of the research, one conclusive statement made is that “EI training should be

considered effective interventions.” The depth of the article is sufficiently

comprehensive, there are no deviations and the article remains on establishing the

efficiency of EI trainings. This research will fit in the literature review because it talks

about that one aspect that is important about EI, and it establishing its efficiency. At the

same time it complements the first source which also focuses on EI training. It is obvious

that the reason for looking into EI, is establishing how it can be utilized by Organizations

so that at the end of the day employees can be effective in addition to the leaders.

Meaning that developing effective EI trainings, are a necessary part of the discussion.

Two of the authors (Sabina Hodzic & Franck Zenasni) are from LATI University

Department of psychology in German, Two of the authors (Jana Scharfen & Heinz

Holling) are part of the Institute of Psychology Germany and one of the authors is

affiliated with University of Valencia, Department of Psychology (Pilar Ripoll). These

The article talks about emotional intelligence (EI) and the improvements it has in the 21st

century. Understanding that EI has been very important and it continues to increase its

significance and correlation with different aspects of the workplace and life at large. The

authors points out that EI is the foundation for decision-making, problem solving, feeling,

thinking and learning, making it qualified for further improvement. In that case a new

concept is introduced by these two authors and that is emotional-cognitive base approach

to gaining EI. In other words, emotions and cognitive aspects have been combined to

come up with a dimension of EI that has nine levels which helps to expand on other

improvements of human efficiency. In summary the article looks further into EI and helps

people or rather organizations to further understand EI. The research can be described as

sufficiently comprehensive, it not too broad or too narrow. This research article will fit

into the literature review because it will expand, the understanding of the EI into other

dimensions. Like in this emotional-cognitive based approach, can be utilized to help

organizations to come with better emotional intelligence employees. The Author:

focuses on expanding the understanding of emotional intelligence. But, first it has

established that all three types of emotional intelligence are related to job satisfaction,

self-report and a mixture of the mentioned aspects. This a journal is relevant to the

literature review because at the end of the day, the following conclusion were made about

EI: Employees who exhibit a higher EI have high organizational commitment, high job

satisfaction and intentions of turnover are low. EI helps employees to reduce negative

feelings therefore improving Job satisfaction and finally a recommendation to

organizations: “to produce satisfied and productive workers, organizations should

incorporate EI in employee recruitment, training and development programmers.”

a review of 46 EI intervention studies so as to come up with different outcomes, which at

the end of the research the findings of each article helped to come up with the support for

EI programs and their efficacy. At the same time, recommendation have been and

contributions to future research have been made by the se authors. The article is

sufficiently comprehensive as it expands on the findings to come up with eye-opening

insights that can be utilized in the development of employees’ EI. The research will

contribute to the literature review as will help to touch on new areas of EI and anticipated

areas of EI which will be instrumental. All the authors who contributed to this research

The article is mainly based on the fact that it reviews major & popular measure of

Emotional Intelligence (EI) and at the same time make recommendations in regards to the

best way to use EI. Considering that the article target academic practitioners who are not

experts, makes it more suitable for the literature review. At the same time the article

mainly focuses on the three models of EI to make their recommendations. Therefore

coming up with the ability EI, trait EI and mixed models, recommendations. This article
