The Salovey & Mayer Model of Four Emotional Intelligence Abilities

The video explores emotional intelligence as defined by Peter Salovi and John Mayer, focusing on four abilities: perceiving, understanding, managing, and using emotions. These abilities help individuals process emotional information and navigate social environments. The video contrasts Salovi and Mayer's model with Daniel Goleman's approach, highlighting the former's emphasis on emotional intelligence as a true form of intelligence and the latter's focus on practical skills. Salovi and Mayer's model is considered more robust academically, while Goleman's is more accessible for practical application.
