ABSTRACT

This paper explores among college students the complex interactions among emotional intelligence (EI), socioeconomic level (SES), and the acquisition of physical education (PE) ideas. From the Physical Education Department at CCS University, Meerut, we enlisted one hundred participants—50 men and 50 women. We obtained notable positive associations between EI and SES and PE concept acquisition using Singh and Bhargava's Emotional Intelligence Scale and Shrivastava's Socio-Economic Status Scale. We also noted gender variations; male students showed better PE idea acquisition than their female peers.

Keywords: Emotional Intelligence, Socioeconomic Status, Gender, Academic performance, Educational Psychology, and Cognitive.
