Abstract

This research examines the interrelation between Emotional Intelligence (EI) and socialization styles and their combined influence on secondary school students' academic achievement. Quantitative research was conducted with a structured questionnaire used to collect data. The sample comprised both male and female students from both government and private secondary schools. Simple random sampling was employed to collect diverse data across school type, gender, and academic achievement levels. The study was descriptive in nature and employed a quantitative approach. The targeted population was secondary school students, grades 9 and 10, due to their critical academic and social development stage. Analysis of the data was conducted through descriptive statistics and Chi-Square tests to examine the relationship between the variables.
