However, the no test is completely reliable. Reliability simply refers to the correlation between a person’s test score at two different times. The test-retest correlation for IQ tests is about .87, which means it’s difficult to ever get a correlation higher than .87 in reality. If you were to take multiple groups of people and give them IQ tests at two different times, the correlation between the scores at the two times would be around .87 – sometimes higher, sometimes lower.
Anyway, when the unreliability of both the Emotional Intelligence score and the Big 5 / IQ composite were controlled for, the correlation rose to .806. To the extent intelligence is generalized, we would also expect emotional intelligence to be partly a function of general intelligence.
