dc.description.abstractThis study was conducted to assess the relationship between peer support and emotional intelligence as descriptive and correlation. Sample of the study consisted of 417 nursing students available and enrolled to Manisa Celal Bayar University Faculty of Health in academic year 2014-2015 and accepted to participate in the research. Data was collected using Peer Support Scale Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale and Student Identification Form containing students' socio-demographical characteristics. The average age of the sample was 20.7 +/- 1.4 (18-29) years and most of them were female (73.4%) and they lived in student residence. It was found that mean score of Revised Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale was 145.1 +/- 16.4 (98-200), and mean score of Peer Support Scale was 37.6 +/- 9.5. There was no significant correlation between Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale and Peer Support Scale scores (p>0.05). It shown that female' Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale scores, and optimism/mood regulation, appraisal of emotions and the utilizations of emotions scores were higher than male, however, male' Peer Support Scale scores, and academic assistance and emotional assistance scores were higher than female. We can recommend that providing of appropriate academic assistance to the first class students and more supporting of female students in order to take academic and emotional assistance.
