Abstract
Self-monitoring refers to the ability to regulate behaviour to accommodate social situations. Individuals high on self-monitoring are highly responsive to social cues and can behave differently in different situations. Low self- monitors are more likely to control expressive behaviours incongruent with their own beliefs, attitudes and dispositions regardless of social situations. Emotional intelligence is the ability to be aware of and use emotions productively for reasoning and problem-solving. Those who are high on emotional intelligence are able to use and integrate their moods and emotions effectively. Researches in the Indian context, on self-monitoring and emotional intelligence among the retail stock market investors, are scarce. The objective of the study is to examine the relationship between self-monitoring and emotional intelligence dimensions. This study analyses the similarities and differences that self-monitoring and emotional intelligence could impose on short-term and long-term stock market investors. Moreover, the impact of ‘levels of self-monitoring’ on emotional intelligence dimensions is analyzed and discussed. It is hypothesized that the retail stock market investors investing in a short term and long term orientation and their low and high self-monitoring levels would remain to be homogenous on their emotional intelligence scores. Short-term and long-term investors and the levels of self-monitoring failed to differentiate on the emotional Intelligence competence of the investors. The short term and long term investors and the levels of self-monitoring differ on all five dimensions of the emotional intelligence scale.
