EL Skills

As you have seen this week, EI directly informs your practice as a forensic professional in psycholegal settings. You want to develop the skills, qualities, and attributes that EI-informed interviewers possess. Cultivating your EI skills also benefits you personally and can have a profound positive impact on your relationships and your sense of well-being. Thankfully, there are a number of helpful inventories and an ever-growing body of research about Emotional Intelligence on which you can rely. Review the Learning Resources for this Assignment, paying special attention to those addressing how to use PowerPoint and how to create narrated PowerPoint presentations. Identify at least four recent (within the past 5 years), peer reviewed articles about Emotional Intelligence. Consider the skills, qualities, and attributes that an EI-informed interviewer possesses. Consider ways that the skills, qualities, and attributes of an EI-informed interviewer can be applied in forensic psychology settings. Use the PowerPoint presentation template, found in the Learning Resources for this Assignment, to create your presentation. Assignment (8–12 slides, not including title and reference slides, plus narration or speaker notes) Based on your understanding of Emotional Intelligence, create a PowerPoint presentation (with narration or detailed speaker notes) in which you address the following: Title (1 slide) Include title and your name. EI and Interviewing (4-6 slides) Define EI Explain the skills, qualities, and attributes that EI-informed interviewers possess. Provide at least 3 examples of ways in which EI is applied in forensic psychology settings. EI and Your Future (2–3 slides) Describe at least 3 ways that you might apply the skills, qualities, and attributes of EI-informed interviewers in your future work as a forensic psychology professional? Continuous Improvement (2–3 slides) Describe at least 3 ways that you can continuously improve your EI skills and become competent as an IE-informed interviewer.

Make sure that your PowerPoint presentation reflects graduate-level writing and presentation standards, with professional-looking graphics and appropriate type style. Use this week’s Learning Resources, as well as the peer-reviewed articles you identified to support your Assignment. Use proper APA format and style for all references and citations. Note: If you choose not to provide narration for your presentation, instead include detailed speaker notes, as follows: Under each slide, in the notes section, write detailed speaker notes for each slide to complement the slide content. Your speaker notes should be clear, in-depth, and function as augmentation to the slide material. Your speaker notes should be written with sufficient depth to allow someone else to deliver the presentation.
