Background: The relationship between emotional intelligence (EI) and risk-taking behaviour
(RTB) has garnered significant interest in psychological and behavioural research. This study
explores how emotional intelligence influences risk-taking behaviour in uncertain situations.
Aims and Objectives: The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between emotional
intelligence and risk-taking behaviour in young adults. Specifically, the study seeks to understand
how emotional intelligence might influence decision-making under conditions of risk.
Methodology: A sample of 105 young adults, aged 18 to 29, from urban Jaipur, India, participated
in a correlational study. Emotional intelligence was measured using the Brief Emotional
Intelligence Scale (BEIS-10), and risk-taking behaviour was assessed using the Domain-Specific
Risk-Taking Scale for Adults (DSRTS).
