juniper, your Emotional IQ is 126.

This number is the result of a formula based on how many questions you answered correctly on Emode's Emotional IQ test. But your Emotional IQ score is much more than just a number: it's an indicator of success.

Research has shown that people with high emotional intelligence scores — not necessarily those with the highest IQ scores — tend to be the most valued and productive employees and have the longest and happiest romantic relationships.

your Emotional IQ is 133.

So, where are you most emotionally smart? Your test results show that your strongest suit is perception — your ability to pick up on what others are feeling.

Scored high on the Machiavellian test. Me too but I'm a class A personality and waiting for the victim(s) to fall into the trap I've set stresses me out

Well, I guess it must be the Scorp rising Oxy, it's the only water in my chart.

So, where are you most emotionally smart? Your test results show that your strongest suit is emotional management — how much you let your emotions affect the world around you.

This is not to say, however, that emotions never contribute to your decisions. At times the emotions you are having are appropriate guides for your actions. And with your keen sense of emotional management, you'll know when and where to base decisions upon them.

Research indicates that if people who are strong emotional managers can work to increase their overall emotional IQ score, they can prepare themselves to handle any interpersonal exchange with amazing skill — especially by learning to be empathetic of others and by being able to express what it is they are feeling or trying to say.

your Emotional IQ is 119.

This number is the result of a formula based on how many questions you answered correctly on Emode's Emotional IQ test. But your Emotional IQ score is much more than just a number: it's an indicator of success.

Research has shown that people with high emotional intelligence scores — not necessarily those with the highest IQ scores — tend to be the most valued and productive employees and have the longest and happiest romantic relationships.

So, where are you most emotionally smart? Your test results show that your strongest suit is perception — your ability to pick up on what others are feeling.

Because of this, you are unusually good at reading people's verbal and non-verbal cues. You're especially aware of the subtleties of people's actions, and can feel out the vibe of a situation better than many. That gives you and edge many wish they had. People with high perception skills like yours, however, tend to rely on them to the exclusion of others. As a result, they sometimes have underdeveloped abilities in other realms of critical emotional intelligence like managing emotions, empathy, and being expressive.

To truly excel in life and know how to relate to different people, you need to balance out the different kinds of emotional intelligence.

Research indicates that if people who are strong in perception can work to increase their overall emotional IQ score, they can prepare themselves to handle any interpersonal exchange with amazing skill — especially by learning to be empathetic and by being able to express what it is they are feeling or trying to say.

I waffled on a few too and have to wonder how much current mood has on the result?

My emotional IQ...one more thing to manipulate me with! One more program to sell me that will 'fix' me, thanks to Emode! Too scary for this triple Aries with Cap moon...how much compassion/empathy can I possibly have???

And it is very very cool to meet another Aries sun/Cap moon!!!!!!!! We may be twisted but we're cool! (teasing! I think you're awesome, from reading your posts!)

1scorp, I think they may give extra points to men, knowing how emotionally unintelligent we are

JW, your Emotional IQ is 132.

I agree that the "test" and results are inconclusive and disappointing. I was also taken aback that Emode has a dating section that appears at the bottom of the results page, with guys' (in my case) photos, descriptions and emails. What the..? I'm partnered, and did NOT sign up for any dating service.

So my reckoning is that some of these Emode tests are rife with pointless questions -- not just "control" questions -- because they're gathering and organizing information on you, in order to trigger your mouse finger and generate $ale$.

I mean hey-- I'm not paranoid -- it's a profit-oriented site designed and run by psychologists!

And by the way...if measuring our compassion/empathy...where are the questions concerning our attitudes towards the creatures of the world?? 'Cause that kind of emotional IQ is _very_ important to me!

I'm surprised it's that high ... since my Scorpio moon is anything but rational. I never think before I react to something. My emotions totally over-run all logical thinking.

Good question Trillan!! There`s a book on emotional IQ? I take it it was boorish?

Heidi, I`m not surprised. Your love for Spanky & four leggeds show much compassion and emapthy ; thats all part of the emotional make-up.

So, where are you most emotionally smart? Your test results show that your strongest suit is empathy — your ability to see things from someone else's point of view.
