Revision with unchanged content. Emotional Intelligence (EI) was proposed as an intelligence to explain differences in emotional and non-emotional information processing in the 1990s. The lack of adequate objective measures for ability-EI, though, resulted in concentrating on trait-EI. Here, an innovative approach employing Mental Speed (MS) tackled the criterion problem for emotional test items. Thus, the relationship between MS, EI and academic intelligence was investigated. Emotional and non-emotional tests following a simple reaction time and the Posner paradigm were constructed and administered along with Raven´s APM to 121 students at Hiroshima Univ., Japan (59 Japanese nationals, 62 international students). Results indicated two separate factors, one for emotional and one for non-emotional information processing. This overall picture was confirmed in different subgroups and in a retest with 48 participants. Due to the concise but well-rounded introduction into three different psychological concepts - EI, MS and Academic Intelligence - this book makes an interesting reading not only for researchers but also for students of psychology, education or other social sciences and the interested public.
