Description
Summary:Lecturers are synonym with the group of people that have a good academic achievement background. Lecturers are the backbone and play the most important roles in every university. They have huge responsibilities as an educator and facilitator and at the same time being the role model for all the students. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of the emotional intelligence (EI) and workplace deviant behavior (WDB) besides identifying the differences of demographic factors with emotional intelligence and workplace deviant behavior. Data were collected from 73 lecturers by using simple random sampling. A questionnaire consisting of two measures was administered to the respondents. The study shows that lecturers in KUKUM do have a high level of emotional intelligence. The findings have proved that there is a negative significant relationship between EI and WDB among the lecturers in KUKUM. Demographic factors were not found to have any difference to EI and WDB.
