The Role of Emotional Intelligence in Social Media Usage and interpersonal interactions: A Survey-Based Analysis.

This study explores the relationship between Social Media usage and Emotional Intelligence (EI) among individuals aged 11 to 58. By employing a Survey-Based approach, we examine how different social media platforms influence emotional well-being and the extent to which EI moderates these effects. The results suggest that while social media can significantly affect emotions, interpersonal interactions have an even greater impact. The findings underscore the importance of emotional regulation and conscious social media consumption. Future research directions and implications for enhancing EI are discussed.
