abstract = {Emotional intelligence (EI) constitutes a unique form of intelligence and, from
performance-based ability models, is conceptualized as the integration of several
abilities: use, manage, understand, and regulate emotions. The relation between
cognitive processes and EI has been less researched. Recent studies show that EI,
when measured by performance-based ability models, plays a relevant role in cognitive
processes when emotion is implicated in the tasks. The aim of this study was to examine
the execution on hot (emotional) and cool (neutral) cognitive tasks in two groups: one
high and one low on EI, in order to determine the role of EI on cognitive processes. The
results showed that high and low EI groups did not differ on cool task performance,
while the high EI group was better at carrying out the hot task. We discuss these results
in relation to recent literature that considers the role of EI in cognitive processes.},
