Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Ritual dances act as a primitive force for improving psyco-social attributes as emotional intelligence and inter personal skills. The purpose of this study was to find out how the ritual dance participation affects the emotional intelligence level of school students positively or not. The study further examined whether gender difference affects emotional intelligence level while participating in rituals. The data was collected from one thousand school students of IX standard. Mangal’s Emotional Intelligence Inventory (MEII) was used as a research tool for collecting the data and compared the ritual dance participating students with non participants on their emotional intelligence by using statistical technique (‘t’ ratio). The study has covered sub scales as Intra personal awareness, intra personal management, Inter personal awareness and inter personal management and confirmed the positive difference. The analysis revealed that sports participants have better emotional intelligence over those students who did not participate in rituals. The result of the study strongly support the need of ritual dance participation to improve the psychological attributes at school level.
