Fifty-one voluntarily child-free women and 62 mothers (control group) completed …

Higher emotional intelligence (EI) may play a similar role. However, few studies have explored their association. Objective: In this study, we tested a correlation model to determine how SC, EI, and subjective well-being (SWB) interact and affect disordered ea…
