The researchers adapted the Arabic version of the Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory: short (EQ-I:s). There were 72 nursing students who actively participated in the study giving an 86% response rate. The results revealed that the level of emotional intelligence of the nursing students was high (m = 3.97, SD = 0.78), on the other hand, the result of the Pearson r test indicates that there is no significant correlation between the fourth year nursing students’ emotional intelligence level and student gender (p = 0.796, r = 0.031), civil status (p = 0.497, r = 0.081), and age (p = 0.711, r = 0.044). The stress management of the nursing students received the lowest , while age, gender, and civil status have no influence to their emotional intelligence.
