Abstract

Emocionalna inteligencija i stres su u današnje vrijeme dvije neizbježne teme s kojima
se suočavaju svi, pa tako i studenti kroz cjelokupno fakultetsko obrazovanje. U ne tako
dalekoj prošlosti se vjerovalo da uspjeh pojedinca ovisi isključivo o znanjima i vještinama
koje on posjeduje. S druge strane, danas je jasno kako su razumijevanje vlastitih emocija i
emocija drugih ljudi te uspješna upotreba i upravljanje emocijama presudni za uspjeh, ali i za
zadovoljstvo pojedinca. Emocionalno inteligentna osoba svjesna je svojih osjećaja, razumije
ih i kontrolira pa se, također, bolje suočava s problematičnim i stresnim situacijama koje čine
sastavni dio dana svakog pojedinca. Osim što loše utječe na zdravlje, stres se pokazao kao
glavni faktor koji negativno utječe na akademske rezultate.

Kako bi se utvrdila povezanost emocionalne inteligencije i percipirane razine stresa
kod studenata, provedeno je primarno empirijsko istraživanje na uzorku od 273 studenta
Ekonomskog fakulteta u Zagrebu, a putem online anketnog upitnika. Anketni se upitnik
sastoji od tri dijela. Prvi dio se odnosi na utvrđivanje razine emocionalne inteligencije, drugi
dio na utvrđivanje percipirane razine stresa kod studenata, a treći dio upitnika se odnosi na
demografske podatke ispitanika.

Rezultati istraživanja su pokazali kako studenti Ekonomskog fakulteta u Zagrebu
imaju iznadprosječno razvijenu emocionalnu inteligenciju. Također, vidljivo je kako najveći
dio ispitanika doživljava umjerene razine stresa. Što se tiče povezanosti emocionalne
inteligencije i razine percipiranog stresa, potvrđena je veza između navedene dvije varijable,
pri čemu se posebno snažna veza pokazala za dimenziju samoregulacije. Dakle, kako raste
emocionalna inteligencija, tako pada razina percipiranog stresa kod studenata.

Abstract (english)

Emotional intelligence and stress are two inevitable topics everyone faces with in
today`s world including students throughout their university education. In not so distant past it
has been believed that the success of an individual depends exclusively on possessed
knowledge and skills. On the other hand, it is clear today that understanding your own and
other people emotions is vital not only for success but also for an individual satisfaction.
Emotionally intelligent person is one which is aware of her own feelings, understands them
and controls them which is why she faces everyday problematic and stressful situations better.
Not only does it have a bad effect on health, stress turns out to be the main reason for worse
academic results.

In order to establish the connection between emotional intelligence and perceived
stress levels among students, a primary empirical research has been conducted on a sample of
273 students of Faculty of Business and Economics in Zagreb via online survey questionnaire.
The questionnaire is made out of three parts. First part refers to establishing the level of
emotional intelligence, second part on establishing perceived level of stress among students
and the third part of the questionnaire refers to demographic data of subjects.

The results of the experiment showed that students of Faculty of Business and
Economics in Zagreb have above average emotional intelligence. Also, it can be seen that the
major proportion of subjects experience average stress levels. As far as connection between
emotional intelligence and perceived stress levels go, there has been confirmed a connection
between those two variables. Therefore, if emotional intelligence increases, perceived stress
levels among students decreases.
