Questionário de inteligência emocional do professor: adaptação e validação do “Emotional Skills and Competence Questionnaire”

Emotional intelligence is a growing area of interest in education. Up to now, however, little research attention has been paid to the question of teacher emotional intelligence, probably owing to the lack of assessment tools. The aim of the study reported here was to adapt and validate the Emotional Skills and Competence Questionnaire (ESCQ) for Portuguese teachers. ESCQ is a self-report instrument for measuring emotional intelligence, based on the theoretical model of Mayer and Salovey (1997). A sample of 958 school teachers was supplied with the following survey instruments: the Emotional Skills and Competence Questionnaire for Teachers (ESCQ-T), and the Rahim Organizational Conflict Inventory-II – Portuguese Version in School Context (ROCI-II-PViSC). The statistical analysis included structural equation modelling using SPSS/AMOS 25 to adapt and validate the ESCQ-T, an instrument for assessing teacher emotional intelligence. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis showed a good fit with the original factor structure. The ESCQ-T also showed a robust reliability coefficient and good psychometric validity and reliability. The study demonstrates that the Portuguese version of the ESCQ-T is a valid instrument for assessing teacher emotional intelligence and may be used in future studies and in relation to educational practice.A inteligência emocional tem motivado um interesse progressivo no domínio da educação. No entanto, não tem sido suficientemente investigada em professores. Como tal, este estudo teve por objetivo adaptar e validar o Emotional Skills and Competence Questionnaire (ESCQ) para professores portugueses. O ESCQ constitui um instrumento de autorrelato da inteligência emocional, tendo por base o modelo teórico de Mayer e Salovey (1997). A amostra foi constituída por 958 professores dos ensinos básicos e secundário. Foram administrados os seguintes questionários: Questionário de Inteligência Emocional do Professor (QIEP), e o Rahim Organizational Conflict Inventory-II– Portuguese Version in School Context (ROCI-II-PViSC). A análise estatística incluiu a técnica de modelação de equações estruturais, tendo por suporte o SPSS/AMOS 25. Desta adaptação e validação resultou o QIEP, um instrumento de avaliação da inteligência emocional para professores. Os resultados da análise fatorial confirmatória demonstram o ajustamento da estrutura fatorial original. O QIEP apresentou um coeficiente de confiabilidade robusto e as diversas características psicométricas evidenciaram a adequada validade e fiabilidade do instrumento. Em conclusão, os resultados deste estudo fornecem evidências de que o QIEP pode ser usado como instrumento para avaliar a inteligência emocional dos professores, no contexto português, podendo ser usado em futuros estudos e práticas educativas

School Conflicts: Causes and Management Strategies in Classroom Relationships

Conflicts cannot cease to exist, as they are intrinsic to human beings, forming an integral part of their moral and emotional growth. Likewise, they exist in all schools. The school is inserted in a space where the conflict manifests itself daily and assumes relevance, being the result of the multiple interpersonal relationships that occur in the school context. Thus, conflict is part of school life, which implies that teachers must have the skills to manage conflict constructively. Recognizing the diversity of school conflicts, this chapter aimed to present its causes, highlighting the main ones in the classroom, in the teacher-student relationship. It is important to conflict face and resolve it with skills to manage it properly and constructively, establishing cooperative relationships, and producing integrative solutions. Harmony and appreciation should coexist in a classroom environment and conflict should not interfere, negatively, in the teaching and learning process. This bibliography review underscore the need for during the teachers’ initial training the conflict management skills development

The relationship between emotional intelligence ability and teacher efficacy

Emotional intelligence and self-efficacy are considered two of the most fundamental teachers’ characteristics to create positive effects on students. Recent research on teacher efficacy has turned from a focus on mastery of content area and lesson plan development to the identification of teacher beliefs and the emotional self-regulation required for teaching and student learning. The purpose of this research was examined whether emotional intelligence abilities influence teacher efficacy. The relationship between teacher gender, length of teaching experience and academic formation with emotional intelligence abilities is also analyzed. The sample comprised 634 Portuguese school teachers. Data sources included the Emotional Skills and Competence Questionnaire for Teachers, and the Teacher Efficacy in Classroom Management and Discipline Scale. The findings, using structural equation modeling, showed that school teachers with greater skills at perceiving, understanding, expressing, classifying, managing and regulating emotions demonstrated greater levels of teacher efficacy. Therefore teachers’ emotional intelligence abilities positively influence teacher efficacy. Having teachers who are apt to perceive and manage emotions will be salutary for the personal development of students, as well as for structuring a positive and self-regulating learning environment. So the results support the teachers’ emotional intelligence ability to job performance, and add to literature suggesting that to succeed in the complex and demanding school setting, teachers must develop the necessary emotional skills for enhancing their efficacy. This research contributes to the importance of being created in the teachers’ academic training, the emotional education discipline.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Teachers’ Emotion Regulation: Implications for Classroom Conflict Management

It has been postulated that emotions play essential roles in conflict situations and that excessive expression of emotions or inappropriate display can reduce the capacity to manage conflict. However, there is a lack of research that relates teachers’ emotion-regulation ability to managing conflict. To bridge this gap, this pilot study aimed to examine the relationships between teachers’ emotion-regulation ability and conflict management strategies used in the classroom. The sample consisted of 878 teachers (61% women) working in Portuguese schools, which completed an application of Mayer and Salovey’s emotional intelligence model and Rahim’s model of conflict management. Using the structural equation modeling, findings revealed that the teachers who tend to show a greater ability to regulate emotions use mainly integrating and compromising strategies to manage classroom conflicts more frequently than other strategies. In conclusion, it is necessary to create a curriculum in the pre-service teachers’ education programs that includes emotional education, so that they can acquire emotional regulation skills, due to their importance in classroom conflict management
