| Summary: | The study of emotional intelligence (EI) is a rising trend frequently highlighted in psychology and leadership literature. EI influences performance in the workplace, academics, and personal-socio relationships. Therefore, synthesising and systematic study to understand the topic of interest and related network connections of EI are crucial to broadening the research field towards integrated efforts. The bibliometric analysis evaluates the global research trends in EI based on publication, co-authorship, affiliated countries, and author keywords. This analysis uses the Scopus database to generate data. A total of 5,783 articles published between 1966-2023 were retrieved. The result shows cumulative publications increased from three-digits between 2002and 2010 to four-digits between 2011and 2023. The USA, Spain, and the United Kingdom have the highest number of publications or co-occurrences on EI, with trait EI, leadership, personality, and adolescence as the highest-used author keywords besides EI. However, based on the current trend from 2019 to 2023, resilience, prosocial behaviour, sustainability, and Covid-19 are high on the average citations and co-occurrences. In conclusion, the bibliometric analysis provides an overview of the current trend in the EI research field based on the keywords used in the Scopus list of published articles. |
