2EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCEAnswer 1:Empathy can be understood as the ability to comprehend or feel the experience or thepoint of view of another person. It can be inclusive of cognitive, emotional or somaticempathy. It is an important component of the emotional experience, and social interaction adforms the basis to understand and predict feelings, motivations and actions of others(Bernhardt & Singer, 2012). Emotional Intelligence (EI) is the ability to identify self emotions from others, and theability to perceive, regulate and communicate them (Zeidner, Matthews & Roberts, 2012). EIincludes the ability to detect emotions (from physical cues), understanding the cause andeffect relationship of emotions, and to facilitate or regulate thought or emotions of self orothers.Neuro imaging studies using fMRI scans have shown that mirror neurons play acentral role in the process of empathy (Corradini & Antonietti, 2013). Interference in theactivity of the mirror neuron systems can result in impaired Empathy and EI. These neuronshave also been implicated for their role in morality (Lamm & Majdandžić, 2015). Forexample in case of Autism spectrum disorder, explained by the “broken mirror” hypothesis(Hamilton, 2013). The hypothesis links certain mental dysfunctions to interferences in theneural activities in mirror-related frontal areas of the brain (Herbert et al., 2015). This shows an important correlation between Empathy and EI from a neurobiologicalperspective (Simonetti, 2014).
