RESUMO
The ubiquitous nature of emotional intelligence, as a central theme in every aspect of our lives-be it at work, school, or home-coupled with the growing prevalence of digital interactions, makes it fundamental to develop our understanding of emotional intelligence in a digital world. However, the digital world represents more than just a contextual factor to consider, as interactions in digital environments require digital competence. The objective of this paper is to conceptualize "digital emotional intelligence" as the integration of both emotional intelligence and digital competence. The model we propose posits that trait emotional intelligence predicts attitudes toward digital competence, while digital ability emotional intelligence is predicted by digital competence skills and digital competence knowledge. Using a self-reported questionnaire on 503 respondents, a structural equation model highlights a positive relationship between trait emotional intelligence and attitudes toward digital competence.
RESUMO
The purpose of this research is to understand how organizational identification and fear of Covid-19 influence individuals' attitudes, trust, and intention to carpool. For this study, 299 participants completed an online questionnaire in which we assessed their organizational identification, fear of Covid-19, perceived risks, attitude, trust, and intention to carpool. Results show that the relationship between individuals and their organization is an effective lever to promote carpooling. Our results confirm that individuals' trust level and attitude strongly determine carpooling intention. The results highlight a negative relationship between perceived risks and attitude, as well as trust; Covid-19 is also identified as an antecedent to perceived risks. Organizations implementing carpooling solutions should focus on developing organizational identification and address fears associated with Covid-19.
