Scientific Background & Psychometric Validity
Based on the foundational four-branch emotional intelligence framework of John Mayer and Peter Salovey, the WLEIS operationalizes EQ into actionable behavioral competencies.

The instrument evaluates your ability to perceive, integrate, understand, and regulate emotional states productively.
