Table A.53. Correlations among EQ 360 2.0 Subscales (Normative Sample)

The following table illustrates the correlations among the EQ 360 2.0 subscales in the EQ 360 2.0 normative sample. Correlations range from 0.00 to 1.00, with higher values suggesting the scales share a relevant common psychological characteristic (i.e., emotional intelligence).  Shaded cells portray correlations of subscales within their respective composite scales. Moderate correlations support the multidimensional factor structure of the EQ 360 2.0.
