ABSTRACT
New efforts to understand the processes involved in ability-related emotional intelligence (ability EI) could reinvigorate this area of scholarship and research. It is proposed that participants with higher levels of ability EI are evaluation experts, which should be evident in the attitude domain. Study 1 (n = 148) probed for affective, cognitive, and behavioral reactions to a diverse set of attitude objects. In addition, attitude certainty ratings were collected. Higher levels of ability EI, but not self-reports of EI, were linked to attitudes that were more extreme, certain, and structurally integrated. In Study 2 (n = 602), participant employees completed standard personality and job satisfaction assessments. Higher levels of ability EI were predictive of greater polarization (as assessed in extremity-related terms) in both domains. The individual differences assessed by ability EI, these results suggest, also tend to support attitudes and opinions with stronger features.
