Marital Satisfaction of College of Education Tutors within the Greater Accra Region: The Influence of Emotional Intelligence and Other Factors
Cogent Education, v11 n1 Article 2389324 2024
This study sought to determine how tutors within the College of Education (CoE) scope at Ada, and in Accra, both townships in the Greater Accra Region, react to emotional intelligence and marital satisfaction. An expressive survey research design was used in the study to gather data from 96 married tutors, utilising structured questionnaires and simple random selection. The study's goals were to identify the variables that affect tutors' marital satisfaction, the gender differences in tutors' emotional intelligence, and the relationship between emotional intelligence and tutors' marital contentment. Means, standard deviation, independent sample t-test, and Pearson's correlation, among others, were used to evaluate the data. The primary finding of the study revealed that demographic specifications, such as gender, ethnicity and religion, are not linked with marital satisfaction, while age, education and income are associated with marital satisfaction. Generally, this study sheds light on the relationship between emotional intelligence and marital gratification of tutors within the colleges of education at Ada and in Accra. The findings, in fact, could be helpful for educators, and other stakeholders, in enhancing the emotional intelligence and marital gratification of tutors, which could, in turn, contribute to improved academic outcomes and overall job performance.
