The article presents the results of an empirical study on the relationship between emotional intelligence and self-attitude in adults. The relevance of the topic is due to the growing importance of understanding one’s inner attitude toward the self in adulthood, where the ability to recognize, express, and regulate emotions becomes a key resource for psychological resilience. The research utilized D.V. Lyusin’s Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (EmIn) and the Multidimensional Questionnaire of Self-Attitude (MIS) by S.R. Pantileev. Statistical analysis included the Mann–Whitney U-test and correlation analysis. The results revealed statistically significant differences in certain self-attitude parameters between the groups, as well as positive and negative correlations between components of emotional intelligence and self-attitude scales (within the total sample).
