187 The empirical study was conducted on a sample of 103 university students aged 19–20 years. A complex of psychodiagnostic methods was applied to obtain an integrated profile of emotional intelligence development [7]. Table 1 . Indicators of Emotional Intelligence (according to N. Hall’s methodology) Scale Mean score Emotional awareness 12.47 Emotion regulation 9.12 Self-motivation 10.08 Empathy 14.25 Recognition of others’ emotions 13.11 Integral emotional intelligence score 60.03 The analysis of the obtained results indicates that the integral level of emotional intelligence corresponds to a moderate level of development. The highest values were observed on the empathy scale (14.25), which reflects a well-developed ability to understand and share the emotional experiences of others. High scores were also recorded for emotional awareness (12.47) and recognition of others’ emotions (13.11), indicating a sufficiently developed cognitive component of emotional intelligence. At the same time, the relatively lower score for emotion regulation (9.12) suggests insufficient stability of emotional self-regulation. The results reveal an imbalance between emotional understanding and emotional regulation. Although respondents demonstrate a high level of emotional awareness, they do not always effectively manage their emotional reactions, which may complicate behavior in conflict situations. Further analysis addressed aggressiveness, conflict proneness, and conflict resistance. The findings indicate a moderate level of overall conflict proneness, suggesting an average tendency toward interpersonal confrontation. The level of conflict resistance is also moderate, reflecting the presence of basic self-regulation
