本研究旨在探討坐禪產生之意識安定與情緒智力之關係研究。首先，本研究根據情緒智力與意識安定的理論架構，先設計情緒智力量表與意識安定量表為研究工具。以問卷調查的方式進行研究，有效回收185份樣本，以自省式問卷測量其坐禪前後的資料。吾人將資料收集分析後，結果發現：(1)人口變項與坐禪者禪修前EQ及意識安定的關係：為年齡較高者的自我情緒控制能力有較高的現象。擔任不同職務對認知他人情緒方面以中階主管分數最高，其次為高階主管；且高中階主管較具備同理心，而職務高者的總EQ有較高的傾向。(2)人口變項與坐禪者禪修後EQ的關係：不同工作類別對同理心方面，以從事製造者最好；不同工作類別對人際關係的管理，以從事商業者最好；有宗教信仰者其認知他人的情緒會比較高。(3)人口變項與禪修前後EQ差異值的關係：男性在對同理心、人際關係的管理上比女性好；而有宗教信仰者比較容易察覺自身情緒。(4)情緒智力與意識安定之相關分析，全量表則高達0.8以上，顯見意識安定愈高則EQ的分數也愈高。

This research aimed to investigate the effect of meditation on conscious stability and emotional quotient. It first designed the emotional quotient survey as a research tool based up the theoretical framework of emotional quotient and conscious stability. The questionnaire survey was conducted, and 185 copies of valid questionnaire were returned. The data before and after meditation were measured by self-reflection questionnaire. After collecting and analyzing the data, the conclusions are reached as the following: (1) The effect of demographic variables on emotional quotient and conscious stability before meditation: People who are older have stronger self-control of the emotion. Middle management is the most capable of recognizing the emotion of the other people while the top managers rank the second. Managers in top and middle levels are more considerate; people who are in higher positions tend to have higher emotional quotient. (2) Correlation between demographic variables and the emotional quotient after meditation: People who are in the manufacturing industry are more considerate, comparing with people in the other industries. Those who are in the business field have better interpersonal relationship, comparing with those who are in the other job categories while people with religious belief are more capable of recognizing the emotion of the other people. (3) Correlation between demographic variables and the differential value of emotional quotient before and after meditation: Males perform better in terms of sympathy and interpersonal relationship, comparing with females while people with religious belief are more capable of sensing personal emotion. (4) Correlation analysis of emotional quotient and conscious stability is over 0.8 throughout the entire questionnaire survey, indicating that people with more conscious stability have higher emotional quotient.
