Summary: | The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between emotional intelligence
and stress coping strategies among undergraduates in Kota Samarahan. Emotional intelligence
and stress coping strategies characteristic of the undergraduates in Kota Samarahan were also
explained. A 33-items in Schutte’s Self-Reported Inventory developed by Schutte et.al (1998)
and a 36-items in Adolescent Coping Scale questionnaires developed by Frydenberg and Lewis
(1993) were administrated to 94 undergraduates in Kota Samarahan. Data was tested using
Pearson Correlation. The findings showed significant relationship between emotional
intelligence and stress coping strategies. The respondents' emotional intelligence were
characterized balancely by emotions perception, managing self-relevant emotions, managing
others' emotions and utilizing emotions. Most respondent preferred reference to other's coping
and productive coping. This study suggests that emotional intelligence is emphasized in youth
