Resumo(s)
Este estudo transversal e quantitativo investigou a associação entre a inteligência emocional (IE) e o equilíbrio entre o trabalho e a vida pessoal (WLB), além das diferenças entre mulheres e homens, no contexto português. A lacuna está na escassez de pesquisas em contexto português e dimensões desses construtos. Amostra com 92 participantes, sendo composta na maioria por mulheres (n = 62). Utilizou-se a escala de Schutte (SSEIT) para IE e de Hayman (2005) para WLB, com análises de correlação (Pearson) e comparação (Teste t). Não houve correlação global significativa entre IE e WLB, mas o enriquecimento do trabalho na vida pessoal (WPLE) correlacionou-se positivamente com o gerenciamento das próprias emoções (GPE) e das emoções dos outros (GEO). Em relação às diferenças, as mulheres apresentaram o GEO mais elevado que os homens, mas sem diferenças significativas no WLB global. Concluiu-se que habilidades emocionais (GPE/GEO) podem promover o enriquecimento trabalho-vida, mas não mitigam interferências mútuas. As organizações podem adotar estratégias combinadas (treinamentos em IE e políticas de flexibilidade). A ausência de diferenças de sexo no WLB sugere que contextos específicos (e.g., ausência de dependentes) podem neutralizar disparidades culturais. Recomenda-se ampliar a amostra e incluir variáveis contextuais em futuras pesquisas.
This cross-sectional, quantitative study investigated the association between emotional intelligence (EI) and work-life balance (WLB), as well as gender differences, in the Portuguese context. The gap lies in the scarcity of research in the Portuguese setting and the dimensions of these constructs. The sample consisted of 92 participants, mostly women (n = 62). The Schutte Self-Report Emotional Intelligence Test (SSEIT) was used to assess EI, and Hayman’s (2005) scale was used for WLB, with correlation (Pearson) and comparison (t-test) analyses. No significant overall correlation was found between EI and WLB, but work-to-personal life enrichment (WPLE) was positively correlated with managing one’s own emotions (MOE) and managing others’ emotions (MOO). Regarding gender differences, women scored higher than men in MOO, but no significant differences were found in overall WLB. It was concluded that emotional skills (MOE/MOO) may promote work-life enrichment but do not mitigate mutual interference. Organizations can adopt combined strategies (EI training and flexibility policies). The absence of gender differences in WLB suggests that specific contexts (e.g., absence of dependents) may neutralize cultural disparities. Future research should expand the sample and include contextual variables.
