![]() Our Center’s research in “basic” science has included the role of self-awareness in teacher decision making, the benefits of emotion regulation skills for creativity and adolescent coping, and connections among school climate, teacher engagement, and student academic performance. Through both science and practice, we determine how emotional intelligence can make a difference in the lives of children and adults. We test and refine each element of our work, with the goal of leveraging emotions to create healthier and more equitable, innovative, and compassionate communities. We provide training to educational leaders, teachers, and school staff to support the systemic implementation of SEL (social and emotional learning) and foster those skills in all stakeholders in these communities, including in families and out-of-school time. Our goal is to design effective approaches for supporting school communities in understanding the value of emotions, teaching the skills of emotional intelligence, and building and sustaining positive emotional climates in homes, schools, and workplaces. Our research is conducted in collaboration with experts in education, psychology, policy, and technology. We do this work because the well-being and sustainability of our society depends on each of us using our emotions wisely.Īs a self-supporting unit within the Yale School of Medicine’s Child Study Center, our research and training is funded primarily through foundation and federal grants, corporate support, training revenue, and philanthropists. ![]() We conduct research and offer trainings that support people of all ages in developing emotional intelligence skills. ![]()
