I think both EQ and IQ have their own importance and people having a perfect balance of both is usually rare. But I think it is this disbalance that makes us different from others. People with very high IQ may tend to think always logically but their decisions may lack emotions. High EQ people may be good at understanding others feelings but at times may be driven away by emotions which is not always the right thing to do.

So I think a disbalance up to a certain extent is normal but it should not be large.

Hello everyone,

It is the character that brings you huge success and I think characters are mostly driven by emotions.

Emotional quotient (EQ) and intelligence quotient (IQ) are undoubtedly very important aspects of a person's life and can make a large difference between a normal life and a successful life.

To be successful you may want to have a great IQ but, that success will not last long if your EQ is not appropriate.

But if you have a good EQ and a little less IQ then the chances of you becoming successful and carry on with that successful career increases way more than that would be in a case discussed above.

Hey there,

Let's straightaway break them to get the literal meaning.

Quotient is the result/reaction of something.
When we appear for competitive exams we are given various formats of tests to assess.
What reaction our brain puts to it, how well it.
Gets you to its solution and henceforth.
This procedure takes time for each individual,
Which is usually judged as a parameter. That's Our IQ.
When we are fallen apart, Broken, Lonely or depressed, our body releases various energies - anger, disappointment, Envy, Self-harm. How well we deal with it and how least it affects our normal routine life has relied upon our EQ.

We all read that we need both in a balanced amount, but I personally wanted to add this up too. Character and Competence are two important aspects. Yet there is no use of competence without a good character. It would gradually lead to Chaos.

Eq is far more important than the iq.

90%of the success depends on eq.

Analysis of the problems simply finding facts that is iq will not solve the crisis. Emotional thinking is required.

Good morning to all.

EQ &IQ both are important because book without cover is the uncomplete production. That means if you have technically knowledge person but you doesn't respect or response to others. IQ based on how intelligence you are EQ is how responsible person you are so both are important to our lives.

Thank you.

Hello Guys,

There is purely IQ because EQ is nothing but IQ. If a person shows EQ so because of his IQ as IQ teaches about EQ. When a team leader handles his team with EQ so at that time that leader uses his IQ to utilise his EQ/Utility. In other hand, when people show their EQ without using IQ so those people show their stupidity somewhere at that place. For an example: suppose there are two people one is an agent and second is a client and client shows his EQ before the agent for taking more and more concession and agent gives without using his IQ, then what will happen? that agent will bear that loss because of his lack of IQ.

Thank you.

EQ and IQ both are important at there places. A person with high IQ and without EQ can't able to handle the difference between their professional and personal life. But for me EQ is more important because the person with EQ can handle toughest situation in their life. If we take the example of housewife or our mother she takes decision from her heart if she also started using her Brain so there will never be Peace in home. For maintaining peace in home many times she ignore people behavior. So EQ is more important.

Hi guys,

First of all, I would like to say that the topic about which we discuss I think everyone has the same point of view but the way of explanation is not good somebody's views good that's like most like this was an example of IQ and the way of expressing your views its come from our hearts that emotion so this one thing is EQ, therefore, we can say that IQ& EQ both complimentary of each other.

Thanks.

Understanding Emotional and Intelligence Quotient.

According to some theories of brain function, a high EQ means someone is self-confident, self-aware, and able to handle difficult emotional experiences. It is often tied directly to the degree of success a person may have in the workplace and in personal relationships. People with high EQ can often better recognize and control their own emotions, and recognize emotional states in others to adjust their behavior accordingly.

A person's IQ, on the other hand, measures concepts like logical reasoning, word comprehension, and math skills rather than creative potential or emotional abilities. People with a high IQ may be able to learn certain subjects very quickly and make connections between ideas that others miss. They often have great academic success, although they may struggle to find classes that challenge them. The ability to acquire knowledge does not necessarily mean people can recognize and manage their own emotional states, however.

Correlations Between EQ and IQ.

There is a great deal of disagreement about any potential link between these two quotients; it is not clear if one indicates or has an impact on the other. Emotional intelligence is often more difficult to measure than IQ, and the methods used are fairly different, so it's not easy to compare them on equal terms. There are also many individuals with very high IQs who seem to be limited in terms of social skills and emotional recognition. Such examples suggest that they are different aspects of the human mind and should be considered separately.

Measuring EQ and IQ.

People have been measuring IQ for much longer than EQ. The first modern IQ test was developed in the early 20th century; although some aspects of emotional intelligence have been considered since that time, EQ tests really were not developed until the 1990s. Many modifications on these tests have been made since then, and there are competing models for how to most accurately measure these quotients.

An IQ test usually involves a set of standardized questions for which the test taker receives a score. This score is compared against the average scores of others within the same age range to determine a person's intellectual potential. These types of tests may have a cultural or language bias, however, and they do not indicate everything about a person's mind and functionality. For example, IQ measurements on most children with autism are typically very high, yet these children can have difficulties communicating with others.

An EQ exam is often more difficult to design and administer because it deals with information that is difficult to present as a numerical value. While an IQ exam may have one definitive answer for each question, EQ tests are usually more subjective and require a great deal of work to score properly. Short EQ tests can also be problematic as people may realize they are being tested on their emotional capabilities and adjust their answers accordingly. People might not answer questions truthfully, so results may become skewed by what the test taker believe the test giver wants to hear, rather than giving true responses to questions.

Using Emotional and Intelligence Quotient.

Once a person's EQ and IQ are determined, they can be used by employers and educators in a variety of ways. Many companies use EQ testing to gauge how well applicants will work with others on a team and their ability to deal with stress and emotional extremes. Teachers and counselors at schools can administer IQ tests to see if students are having difficulties in class due to being too advanced or behind when compared to their peers. EQ tests are often used in education to help identify those students who may need special assistance in learning to manage their emotions or to better communicate with others.
