Statistical information of the test GalaEmo for the measurement of emotional intelligence.

The test has been standardized using a sample of 741 professional of various professional fields allover Greece and the World.

The test possesses good psychometric qualities.

More specifically, the internal consistency reliability (or alternatively known as the Kuder-Richardson formula) of the scale is: Cronbach a = 0,8979

Spit-half reliability:

Guttman Split - half = 0, 8378
Equal Length Spearman Brown = 0, 8448

The reliability of the sub-scales is also satisfactory.

• Subscale 1 : a= 0,72
• Subscale 2 : a= 0,69
• Subscale 3 : a= 0,70
• Subscale 4 : a= 0,62
• Subscale 5 : a= 0,68

The mean score of the sample was = 567, 30/875 and the standard deviation SD= 47,69.

Accordingly, the mean scores and standard deviations for the subscales are as follows:

• For the subscale of Self-consciousness(Subscale 1): = 119,51/175 SD = 14,51
• For the subscale of Self-regulation[/Self-control](Subscale 2): = 109,75/175 SD = 13,11
• For the subscale of Motives of behaviour (Subscale 3): = 112,51/175 SD = 10,23
• For the subscale of Empathy (Subscale 4): = 114,03/175 SD = 11,78
• And for the subscale of Social skills (Subscale 5): = 111,51/175 SD = 12,70

Finally, the scale has satisfactory face validity, as it has been designed according to Goleman's theory (1995) and high criterion validity (r= 0,85 ** , statistically significant at the 0,01 level) using a specific self-evaluated item as criterion.

At the moment a validity analysis is conducted using the original scale of Petrides & Furnham (2001, 2003) as a criterion.
