Abstract

The notions of Emotional Intelligence, Affect, and alcohol consumption hold profound importance within the realm of psychology. Acknowledging their significance, this study aims to investigate the Disparities in Emotional Intelligence and Positive-Negative Affectivity between individuals who consume alcohol and those who do not. A sample of 100 participants was meticulously chosen from the urban expanse of Delhi NCR. The findings of this study reveal a notable disparity in Emotional Intelligence between consumers of alcohol and non-consumers, while no discernible difference was observed in terms of Positive-Negative Affectivity. This underscores the intricate interplay between emotional facets and alcohol consumption. The implications of these results hold potential for a deeper understanding of psychological dynamics and their associations with alcohol utilization.
