INVESTIGATING THE EFFECTS OF TEACHER CANDIDATES' EXPECTATIONLESSNESS AND EXPECTATION LEVELS ON EMOTİONAL INTELLIGENCE
Emotional intelligence can be regarded as more important than IQ because emotional intelligence individuals have to be self-fulfilling and have balanced character. The levels of expectation and resilience of individuals can change by exhibiting a structure that is sensitive to variables when the individual is confronted with obstruction to reaching a goal. The problem of this research is how the emotional intelligence abilities can affect the expectationlessness and irreversibility levels that can affect the ways in which the prospective teachers, who play an important role in education, meet or cope with the problems they encounter. The students' study group constitutes a total of 213 teacher candidates, 166 female and 47 male students studying at Düzce University Faculty of Education Preschool Teaching Department. The 'Emotional Intelligence Scale', developed by Petrides & Furnham (2000, 2001), Snyder (2000), was developed by the researchers in order to evaluate the emotional intelligence, expectations and resilience levels of the students with 'Personal Information Form' 'Expectation Scale' developed by Yilmaz et al. (1991) and 'Yilmazlık Scale' developed by Gürgan (2006) were used. The research shows that the teacher candidates' emotional intelligence has a full effect on their expectationlessness and expectationlessness levels. At this point, it would be appropriate to apply treatment procedures to strengthen emotional intelligence of individuals who are especially exposed to psychologically depressing and shaky situations, in order to strengthen their expectationlessness, resilience and non-repudiation skills.
