Goleman is associated with which of the following?

Concept — Emotional intelligence is the ability to perceive, understand, regulate and express emotions — one's own and those of other people — and to use that emotional information to guide thinking, decisions and behaviour. It is treated as an ability domain separate from the general reasoning capacity that an IQ test measures.

Application — The term was introduced into academic psychology by Peter Salovey and John Mayer in 1990, and it reached a worldwide audience through Daniel Goleman's 1995 book “Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ”. The five-component model set out in that book is the version reproduced in teacher-eligibility syllabi.

1. Self-awareness — recognising one's own emotions as they arise, and knowing their effect.

2. Self-regulation — managing and redirecting disruptive impulses and moods.

3. Motivation — using emotion to pursue goals with energy and persistence.

4. Empathy — sensing and understanding what other people are feeling.

5. Social skills — managing relationships, building rapport and working with groups.

Cross-check — Each of the other constructs offered here carries its own separate attribution in the psychology literature, which is what makes this association unambiguous.

Goleman later wrote a book titled “Social Intelligence” (2006), but that construct itself goes back to Thorndike; in psychology and in exam syllabi Goleman's defining association remains emotional intelligence.

Answer: Emotional intelligence.
