This construct influences the performance of students. It is a matter of common observation that some persons are less intelligent and they succeed in life better than those who are highly intelligent. Here the construct of emotional intelligence arises.

This change depends on the society and culture. Everyday experiences create this ability by using reflective thinking for improving learning (Sternberg, 2003) . Banks (2012) determined that intelligence is apsychobiological ability to process data that can be used in a social background so that problems may be resolved. Emotional intelligence means being intelligent about feelings and sentiments. Emotions play an important role in our everyday life. It plays part in the interactions and success in day to day life. Drigas, and Papoutsi (2018) assert that an individual control his/her own feelings and emotions, to differentiate between their emotions, and apply the data in her/his thoughts and taking actions. Goleman (1998) has introduced the term emotional intelligence. He asserts that the understanding of one’sown emotional state and of others for controlling and understanding several relationships and activities with others is emotional intelligence.  \nFernandez, Berrocal, Cabello, Castillo and Extremera (2012) assert that the effects of emotional intelligence on day to day life are significant. Similarly, Mohzan, Hassan and Hall (2013) assert the effect of emotional intelligence on professional development is also important. It is worth mentioning that emotional intelligence improves to a great extent the learning of individuals in terms of individual career, growth and development. Fida, Ghaffar, Zaman and Satti (2018) are of the view that emotional intelligence helps emotional firmness and learners at the university level or higher degree institutions are expected to be more firm and enthusiastically gifted. University education provides a platform to the young students to enter successfully into the job market. Predictably, a few emotional states are considered to be involved with gender i.e. females are considered to be emotionally more communicative whereas males to be emotionally calm and firm (Shehzad & Mahmood, 2013) .
