FEATURES OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE OF ADOLESCENTS WITH DIFFERENT LEVELS OF INTERNET ADDICTION

Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the study of emotional intelligence in modern psychological science. The study was carried out using the following methods: theoretical analysis of research works, empirical methods (,,Internet addiction test”, K. Yang, adaptation of V. A. Loskutov, ,,Test for emotional intelligence”, N. Kholl), mathematical methods statistics (the Mann-Whitney test for the analysis of the reliability of differences in the variables studied). Authors proved that the indicators of emotional intelligence of adolescents with different levels of Internet addiction are different. Adolescents with a high level of Internet addiction are dominated by a low level of emotional intelligence; adolescents with an average level of Internet addiction are dominated by a low level of emotional intelligence; in adolescents with a low level of Internet addiction, the average level of emotional intelligence predominates. The indicators of the total emotional intelligence, ,,emotional awareness”, ,,managing your emotions”, ,,self-motivation” and ,,managing the emotions of others” are significantly higher in adolescents with a low level of Internet addiction. Perhaps excessive use of the Internet, replacing interpersonal communication in real life, can have a negative impact on emotional competence.
