Abstract
The aim of this study was to translate, validate, and confirm the psychometric properties of the WLEIS. This scale was developed in 2002 by Wong and Law. The Scale, which has 16 items on the 7-point Likert scale, was used. Initially, a sample of (n = 30) students was used to measure the reliability of the translated instrument. The reliability of this scale was (r =.91) suggested that it would be an appropriate scale to apply with Pakistani adolescents. In addition, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was used to evaluate the factor structure on a sample of 300 adolescents. According to the confirmatory factor analysis, the translated scale was a valid indicator that can be applied in Pakistan. The validity and reliability of Wong and Law emotional intelligence scale were examined by looking at the Cronbach's alpha value (α), composite reliability (CR) and average variance extracted (AVE). The Cronbach's Alpha value for the four WLEIS components was .88, .89, .80, and .89; the composite reliability, it was .88, .90, .86, and .87; and the AVE, it was .65, .70, .62, and .63, respectively. The Wong & Law Emotional Intelligence Scale has also been proven to be accurate and valid in Pakistan. Key Words: Emotional Intelligence, Reliability, Validity, Adolescents
