EQ-i 2.0 Administration Overview
The EQ-i 2.0 is an online self-assessment designed to measure emotional intelligence across key areas such as self-perception, interpersonal skills, decision-making, and stress management.
1. Invitation and Access
Participants receive an email invitation with a secure link to the assessment platform (usually through Multi-Health Systems, or MHS Assessments). Each link is unique and confidential.
2. Completing the Assessment
The assessment is completed online and takes about 20–30 minutes.
It consists of 133 short statements, with participants indicating how often each statement applies to them using a 5-point scale (from “Never/Rarely” to “Always/Almost Always”).
There are no right or wrong answers — responses reflect typical behaviors and emotional tendencies.
3. Environment
Participants can complete the assessment at their own pace in a quiet, distraction-free environment.
It can be done on a computer, tablet, or mobile device.
4. Scoring and Reporting
Once completed, results are automatically scored by MHS’s system.
Certified practitioners then interpret the results and generate a personalized report, which may include:
An overall Emotional Intelligence (EI) score
Scores across five composite areas and 15 subscales
Developmental insights and strategies for improvement
5. Debriefing
A confidential feedback session is typically scheduled with a certified EQ-i 2.0 practitioner to review the results, discuss strengths and development areas, and create an action plan for applying EI insights in personal or professional contexts
