 Abstract:

This study aims to investigate the relationship between demographic profile and EI of teaching staff in a college in Najran Saudi Arabia. This study used descriptive-correlational design, and total enumeration sampling was utilized with 61 respondents. Statistical tools used in this study were frequency, percentage, Pearson-r, and Spearman-rho. Results revealed that: Pearson-r revealed the relationship between age and EI results the score of (r= -0.21, n=61, p=0.11) and the relationship between years of experience and EI results revealed a score of (r= -0.13, n=61, p=0.31); and Spearman-rho revealed a score of (rs= -0.28, n=61, p=0.03) and (rs2= 0.08). The researcher concludes that: the teaching staff level of EI is average; the teaching staff age and years of experience have no relationship with their EI; there is a weak negative relationship between the teaching staff academic rank and their EI.
