Episode description

This week we're joined by researcher (and fellow Single Minded listener) Zoe Callis to talk about emotional intelligence (EQ) and the role it plays in romantic relationships. This episode covers: 

  • What's the difference between IQ and EQ?
  • What are the qualities of someone with high EQ vs low EQ?
  • Is it possible to improve your EQ? 
  • Do we rank high IQ and high EQ as attractive qualities? 

The research paper Zoe conducted isn't publicly available, but you can reach out to her direct for more info. Zoe Callis: https://research-repository.uwa.edu.au/en/persons/zoe-callis
