Table A.58. Multiple Regression Results for EQ-i 2.0 and EQ 360 2.0 Predicting Social Adjustment Scale–Self-Report Total Scores

The following table summarizes the extent to which the EQ-i 2.0 and EQ 360 2.0 are independently related to Social Adjustment Scale–Self-Report (SAS–SR) scores. Significant (p < .05) beta (β) values demonstrate independent associations with SAS–SR scores. Significant (p < .05) ƒ2 values, as found for the EQ 360 2.0 Total EI score and many composite scales and subscales suggest the EQ 360 2.0 provides added value over the EQ-i 2.0 in relation to SAS–SR scores.
