Validation of the Arabic version of the Brief Emotional Intelligence Scale
Findings suggest that the Arabic BEIS-10 is a valid and reliable self-report measure for the assessment of EI in Arab settings. Considering its simple and brief administration, this version of the scale might be of better convenience in Arab settings beset by shortage of resources and financial turmoil. It also has practical implications as it enables research on EI in diverse cultural contexts, and enhances educational and workplace programs by tailoring emotional intelligence training to local needs.
