Jackson de Carvalho, PhD, MSW Email and Darron Garner, PhD, LCMSW
Abstract For over thirty years, scholars have highlighted the importance of emotional intelligence in individuals’ ability to adapt their behavior and navigate various situations that impact their lives. Emotional intelligence encompasses recognizing emotions, comprehending their meanings and interconnections, and applying this understanding to reasoning and problem-solving. Self-efficacy is the belief in one’s capacity to act and effectively manage life’s challenges. Academic achievement assesses the extent to which a student, teacher, or institution meets their educational objectives, reflecting the progress and milestones that pave the way for future opportunities. This study investigates the influence of emotional intelligence on teachers’ self-efficacy and academic success, positing that it affects their self-efficacy, subsequently impacting academic performance. Additionally, the research not only emphasizes the inspiring potential of emotional intelligence in fostering self-efficacy but also underscores the necessity of prioritizing teachers' emotional intelligence to enhance academic achievement. It outlines key strategies for increasing teachers’ emotional intelligence, ultimately leading to favorable outcomes.
