- Description: Emotional intelligence is a factor that may significantly determine the ease or difficulty experienced throughout one’s navigation of life. This study aimed to investigate the influence of various parental factors, the parent-child relationship, and parenting styles on the development of adolescent emotional intelligence. A systematic review was conducted of journal articles focusing on the parental influence on adolescent emotional intelligence. The articles were obtained from database searches and from perusing the intext references within the articles. Appropriate studies were identified using predetermined inclusion criteria and only those who met the inclusion criteria were included in the systematic review. This review found that parents significantly influence the development of their children’s emotional intelligence and that children’s emotional intelligence can be influenced by intervention strategies. The study further highlights the need for intervention aimed at either parents or their children. Interventions aimed at parents intend to improve the parentchild relationship and parenting style while interventions aimed at children can be implemented into the school curriculum, to enhance their emotional skills. Parental intervention can prevent lower levels of emotional intelligence in children, whereas interventions directed at children can increase their emotional intelligence. , Thesis (MSoc Sci -- Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, 2024

- Description: Psychobiographies offer the illuminating experience of uncovering the story of an individual’s life through the lens of a psychological theory. Psychobiographies offer the chance to gain a deeper understanding of what makes that individual unique. This study aimed to explore and describe the emotional intelligence of Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu according to Goleman’s (1998) theory of Emotional Intelligence. Tutu was chosen as a subject for this study because of his extraordinary life and accomplishments, and because he is regarded as a prominent figure of moral leadership in South Africa. A qualitative psychobiographical research method was utilised. Data was collected from both primary and secondary sources to enhance internal validity, and was then analysed according to Miles and Huberman’s (1994) approach. The findings suggest that Tutu applied all of the twenty five emotional intelligence capacities during his life, and that at times, some were used more extensively than others. This study is groundbreaking in that it is the first psychobiography on Desmond Tutu, and it is the first psychobiography undertaken at the University of Fort Hare. Psychobiographies offer an opportunity to evaluate the psychological theory which is applied. It was found that Goleman’s (1998) theory of Emotional Intelligence is supported by this study.
