Emotional Intelligence
Recently, researchers in neurosciences and psychology have found that emotions are
widely related to cognition; they exert influences in various behavioral and cognitive processes, such as attention, long-term memorizing, and decision-making. The notion of
emotional intelligence has attracted increasing attention due to its capabilities to improve
people's performance. There are a number of questions to address, including: What is
emotional intelligence? What is the impact of emotional intelligence on individual and
social learning? How do the different emotional aspects interact with one another, and
with related states such as motivation and engagement? This special track focuses on the
possibilities and potential offered by emotional intelligence in computer systems.
