This research study explores the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI) and self-concept among Muslim women in Jharkhand, a region marked by cultural diversity and socio-economic challenges. Emotional intelligence, encompassing self-awareness, self-regulation, empathy, motivation, and social skills, plays a pivotal role in shaping individuals' psychological well-being and social interactions. Self-concept, which includes self-esteem, self-image, and identity, is equally crucial in determining how individuals perceive themselves and their place in society. The study adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative data collection to provide a comprehensive understanding of these constructs among Muslim women in Jharkhand. The sample includes women from various socio-economic backgrounds, ensuring representation across different age groups, education levels, and urban-rural settings. Standardized questionnaires are used to measure emotional intelligence and self-concept, while in-depth interviews and focus group discussions offer deeper insights into personal experiences and perceptions. Preliminary findings suggest a complex interplay between emotional intelligence and self-concept, influenced by socio-cultural and economic factors. The study identifies significant correlations between these constructs, highlighting the role of emotional intelligence in enhancing self-concept and, consequently, overall well-being. Additionally, the research reveals specific challenges faced by Muslim women in Jharkhand, including socio-economic constraints and cultural expectations, which impact their emotional intelligence and self-concept. The study's findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the psychological and social dynamics of Muslim women in Jharkhand, offering valuable insights for policymakers, educators, and social workers. The research emphasizes the need for targeted interventions to enhance emotional intelligence and self-concept, ultimately fostering the empowerment and social inclusion of Muslim women in the region.
