This study aims to develop a reliable and valid measurement instrument of
emotional intelligence based on mixed model. Mixed model of emotional
intelligence and literature on it were investigated, and then an item pool with
53 items was developed. 14 expert of emotional intelligence examined 53
items. In order to make the expert’s judgments standardized, Lawshe
Content Validity Ratio was used. As a result of the ratio analysis, 18 items
were discarded from initial draft of the scale. Data were collected from 492
children for the exploratory factor analysis (EFA). EFA results indicated the
scale includes unidimensionality. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA)
yielded good model fit indices. Results indicated that the scale is reliable
and valid instrument in measuring emotional intelligence
