MSCEIT®2 Emotional Intelligence Test (Assessment with Certified Practitioner Debrief)

Sale Price: $395.00 Original Price: $695.00

If you have taken the EQ-i 2.0®, you know how you show up. The MSCEIT® 2 tells you what you can actually do.

Description: The Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test™ Second Edition is a performance-based measure of emotional intelligence, built on the ability model by the three researchers who defined the field. A self-report asks how you see yourself. The MSCEIT 2 hands you emotionally charged problems and scores how well you solve them. You cannot talk your way to a high score. Neither can a candidate.

The branch that matters most is the first one. If a leader misreads the room at the start, everything downstream is a well-executed response to the wrong signal. That is what this instrument measures, and it is why a leader can be strong on paper and still land badly in the room.

94 items, about 30 minutes, online.

What it measures:

  • Perceiving Emotions: Reading emotion accurately in other people and in the room around you.

  • Connecting Emotions: Using emotional experience to sharpen thinking and decision making.

  • Understanding Emotions: Knowing what causes emotions, how they evolve, and where they lead.

  • Managing Emotions: Staying open to your own emotions and other people's, and handling them in a way that supports good choices.

You receive a score for each domain and a Total EI score.

Which one do you need? Choose based on the decision in front of you. The EQ-i 2.0 is the right tool when you want a leader to understand their own pattern and change it. The MSCEIT 2 is the right tool when you need to know what someone can actually do with emotion, independent of how they describe themselves. Many people benefit from both. They answer different questions.

Ideal For: Anyone who has completed an EQ-i 2.0 and wants the other half of the picture. Leaders working on how they read a room before they respond to it. HR teams that need an instrument defensible enough to inform a hiring decision. Coaches who want something a client cannot game.

Selection Use: Candidates give written consent before they begin, every candidate receives their own one-hour debrief at no cost to them, and results are never the sole basis for a hiring decision. Consent language you can adapt is provided with your purchase.

Not available off the shelf. MHS requires certification to administer the MSCEIT 2. You are buying access through a certified practitioner, not a link.

Includes: The assessment, your own report, and a one-hour debrief with a certified practitioner over Zoom.
