The present research was undertaken to develop and validate
the social intelligence scale. Attributes of social intelligence
were elicited from 35 university students. After empirical
validation, 431 university students were asked to rate
themselves on the 98 item on a 4-point scale. Factor analysis
revealed five factors namely; Social Manipulation (SM), Social
Facilitation (SF), Social Empathy (SE), Extroversion (E), and
Social Adaptability (SA). SM and SA appeared to be the two
ends of social skills judged to be negative and positive. SM
comprising rather devious set of items used to exploit others
for selfish ends. SA represented honest and sincere interaction
with others resulting in mutual benefit. SF was positively
related to SE and SA whereas SM was not. Extroversion
correlated highly with all factors. Construct validity was
established with the help of Bar-On Emotional Quotient
Inventory (Bar-On, 1997) and test retest reliability was also
found to be satisfactory. The findings are discussed in terms of
the factor structure and function of SI in the context of the
culture.
