Emotional Intelligence Test PRO: 36 scenarios, 12 sub-skills and your personal plan
An in-depth emotional intelligence test built on the Salovey-Mayer-Caruso four-ability model, the same model the MSCEIT is based on. In 10 minutes you know not just your score, but what to do each of the next 7 days.
Four abilities, twelve parts
Emotional intelligence isn't one trait but four abilities that build on each other: noticing an emotion, using it, understanding it and regulating it. The PRO test splits each into three parts, so you see not only which area gets stuck, but where exactly within it.
- 01Perceiving
How accurately you notice emotions in yourself and others from tone, body language and context.
- Your own emotions
- Other people's emotions
- Body language and tone
- 02Using
Whether you can put an emotional state to use for a specific task, not just endure it.
- Mood and task
- Emotion in decisions
- Energy and creativity
- 03Understanding
Whether you understand why an emotion arose, separating it from a person's character.
- Causes
- Mixed emotions
- How emotions change
- 04Managing
What strategies you use to regulate your own and others' emotions.
- Early strategies
- Regulation in the moment
- Others' emotions in relationships
This is what your result looks like: profile, parts, relationships, plan
Below is a real excerpt of a report with sample answers. Yours is built from your own 36 answers.
You read emotions very precisely, often before others do. The hardest part for you is what comes after: regulating an emotion at the right time, before it peaks.
Each segment is one sub-skill. The longer it is, the stronger.
You usually act only once an emotion is already strong. Earlier strategies are the easiest to learn and work best.
In the heat of the moment you tend to either explode or clamp down. Breath is the fastest tool you're not using yet.
When others are upset, you tend to argue, fix or step away, rather than stay with them.
You feel the tension first and answer too fast
In a couple and in the family you're the first to notice something is wrong. But in a conflict you reply straight away, while the emotion is at its strongest. Your rule: notice the tension, pause, then speak.
You sense the team's mood before anyone else
It's a rare strength for a leader and a team member. The risk: you carry other people's tension with you. Plan hard conversations in advance, not on the spot.
- Day 1Before a hard conversation: three physiological sighsPhysiological sigh
Two inhales through the nose, one long exhale through the mouth. The fastest way to lower tension.
- Day 2Plan one tense situation in advanceno tool needed
Choose the place, the time and your first sentence before the emotion rises.
- Day 3Name your emotion three times a dayEmotion Wheel
Not "bad", but the exact word and intensity: irritation, anger or rage.

The same model the MSCEIT is built on, for €9
Emotional intelligence was first defined as a scientific concept in 1990 by psychologists Peter Salovey and John D. Mayer. Together with David Caruso they later developed their four-ability model into the most researched emotional intelligence test, the MSCEIT.
The PRO test is built on the same four-ability model. Its 36 scenarios are written for this site and tied to real emotion-regulation strategies: choosing the situation, redirecting attention, reappraisal and adjusting the response.
