dc.description.abstract |
This research was undertaken to analyse and evaluate the nature and quality of the
role of parents in terms of the development of emotional intelligence in their
adolescents. The results of this study indicate that emotional intelligence does appear
to be higher in adolescents who have been exposed to a caregiver whose
predominant style of parenting is that of an emotion coach. Parenting style therefore,
appears to be related to a nurturant interaction with open communication and
empathy. The adolescents who displayed less of the characteristics of emotional
intelligence and experienced a low self-concept, perceived their primary caregivers as
less empathetic, as communicating their emotions less effectively and as less able to
put strategies into place to deal with their emotions. The researcher recognised
limitations of the research and made recommendations on ways in which parents and
adolescents can create more suitable environments for the development of emotional
intelligence. |
