WTF is “emotional intelligence?”
I must have exceptional EQ then ;D.
I guess I have it then. All it takes is a tiny bit of education, not emotions needed. Simply educate yourself.
Emotional intelligence? Or is that another way of describing mental health? I tend to find those who believe what their politically-biased TV is telling them are easily lied to because they prefer to be. They are also lying to themselves.
I would say it is the ability to detach from emotion and use logic, but I was wrong once.
It’s like a participation award, for those who lost the IQ race.
Emotional intelligence=lack of emotional control often leading to pearl clutching.
Meanwhile, subjects who correctly identified fake news told researchers “comes across as more of a rant” and “fearmongering article with no data.”
So, critical thinking skills are passe, and probably racist.
Better to be an emotional thinker; back in the day they used to call this ‘hysterical’.
The Furies are on the loose.
I think you’re probably right; but I don’t think there’s any definitive ‘test’ to measure it:

>> In other words, participants with more education appear to have a better eye for spotting fake news.
They why do Ivy League graduates fall for Communism and militant Leftism?
This article seems to fit the category of “fake news”, by its own criteria. What are “trusted sources”? Trusted by whom? Why is an emotionally-charged report necessarily “fake”? I recall a lot of factual, but emotionally-charged reports during 9/11. And I’ve heard and read many obvious untruths presented with a tone of objectivity and authority.
What is this quality referred to as “emotional intelligence”, which a person can be “trained to enhance”? Apparently this sort of “intelligence” is not an aptitude, but something that is learned. What makes it “intelligent”?

LOL — same thoughts
They erroneous call real news about the fake man-made global climate scare “fake news”

In most majors, they are far more brainwashed than educated, and it began in prep school.
This article is complete BS and who ever posted should not be allowed to post any more articles.
Well if those stories are authored by the MSM then there is no thinking required. They are fake news.
My emotional intelligence is for shit. Probably around 88 (where 100 is average).
OTOH - i can spot fake news miles away.
