Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的) intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person’s makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.

We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.

Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run  far  ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect  of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.

Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives ( 视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.

大众化在某些情况下改变了情感的本意(情感的) 智慧。许多人现在误解了情商，认为情商几乎是一个人组成中所有需要的东西，而这些东西不能用智商测试来衡量，比如性格、动机、信心、心理稳定性、乐观主义和“人际交往技巧”。研究表明，情商技巧可能有助于这些品质的形成，但他们中的大多数人远远超出了基于技能的情商。

我们更倾向于将情商描述为一组特定的技能，可以用于好的或坏的目的。准确理解他人感受的能力可能会被医生用来发现如何最好地帮助她的病人，而骗子可能会用它来控制潜在的受害者。情感上的聪明并不一定能使人成为有道德的人。

尽管有关情绪智力的流行观点远远超出了研究所能合理支持的范围，但宣传的总体效果是利大于弊。这种普及最积极的方面是一个新的和迫切需要强调的方面(重视) 由雇主、教育工作者和其他对促进社会福利感兴趣的人研究情感。情绪智力的普及有助于公众和研究人员重新评估情绪的功能，以及情绪如何在日常生活中适应地为人们服务。

尽管情商的持续流行是可取的，但我们希望这种关注将激发人们对情感科学和学术研究的更大兴趣。我们希望在未来几十年里，科学的进步将提供新的视角（视角) 研究人们如何管理自己的生活。情商，关注大脑和心脏，也许能为我们指明正确的方向。
