“At a time when the topic of emotional intelligence (EI) is gaining greater and greater relevance in the study of psychological well-being, this book presents a welcome addition to the literature in the field. . . . Due to the sheer comprehensiveness of the aspects of EI for which it reports on assessment methodology, this is an invaluable book for social scientists and students seeking information about assessment methodology for use for a n EI research project, or simply wanting learn what has been published to date in the field of EI. . . . It admirably fulfills a great need for an assessment resource in this rapidly growing field.” – Dr. Manuel Martinez-Pons

Reviews
“I found this to be an engaging and rigorous treatment of an intriguing topic. I suspect it will be the authority on the measurement of emotional intelligence for the foreseeable future. The authors’ handling of this complex substantive domain is methodical and sensible. The narrative is highly readable. This volume represents an excellent comprehensive catalog of viable measures addressed to the content domain of emotional intelligence. Each measure is succinctly and clearly described, with an accompanying compendium of data relevant to reliability and validity.” – Richard W. J. Neufeld
