Aim: To determine the effect of Emotional Intelligence on sporting performance
Research hypotheses:
There is a difference in EQ between sporting performers of different standards
There is a link between Emotional Intelligence (EQ) and success in sport (Rugby Football Union)
Experiment 1Experimental Hypothesis: Emotional
Intelligence (EQ) is higher in elite athletes than in non-elite athletes (RFU players)
Null Hypothesis: Any difference in Emotional Intelligence between elite and non-elite athletes is not significant and is due to chance
Elite Mean: Non-elite Mean:4

Graph to show the difference in EQ between elite and non-elite athletes
Experiment 2Experimental Hypothesis: There is a positive
correlation between Emotional Intelligence (EQ) and skill success rate in non-elite athletes (RFU players)
Null hypothesis: Any correlation between Emotional Intelligence and skill success rate in non-elite athletes is not significant and is due to chance
Results:
Implications & ConclusionsThere is a positive correlation between EQ
and performance in sportIncreasing EQ would have a positive effect on
performanceEQ may be the difference in quality of
performance between elite and non elite performers
Emotional Intelligence may be utilised by performers to maximise their sporting success
Reliability & Validity Issues

What did I learn?Emotional Intelligence is measured as a
quotient (EQ)
There are various theories of EI. E.g. Trait Theory
EI includes relation to others – socialisation
Links between EI; neuroscience; neurolinguistic programming; mindfulness; etc.
Was I pleased with my finished result?
Strengths Improvements
Hypotheses backed up by results
Larger sample size
Anomalous results could be explained
Use the full TEIQue test
Results coincided with theory and research
Increased Timescale (experiment 2)
If I was to do this again, what would I do differently?
Implement improvements on the previous slide
Look more deeply into the effects of social interaction during performance
