Abstract

This study was conducted to compare the levels of emotional intelligence of first and fourth grade students at Aksaray University and Kırıkkale University. The research group consisted of 369 university students attending coaching and teaching departments in Aksaray University Physical Education and Sports High School and Kırıkkale University Sports Sciences Faculty. The Surveyed Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale was used in the study. In the analysis of the data, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, ANOVA and t-test were used on the SPSS package program. As a result of the research, no significant difference was found between students' gender, place of residence variables and emotional intelligence levels (p>0.05). Significant differences were observed between the sub dimensions of emotional intelligence and the department, the class, and situations whether they were professional athletes (p<0.05).
