The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between Emotional Intelligence
(EI) and Responsibility Attitude among youth. It examines how a well-developed sense
of responsibility correlates with the ability to recognize, manage, and express emotions
effectively, fostering better decision-making and interpersonal relationships in their living.
To investigate the relationship, a sample of 200 college students was selected using
simple random sampling strategy. In the 200 sample, 100 were day scholars and the
remaining 100 were hostellers. Tools on Responsibility attitude scale and Emotional
intelligence scale were used to collect data. Pearson product moment correlation and
‘t’ test were used for analysis. The result showed that the variable responsibility attitude
has a significant positive correlation with emotional intelligence. In addition to this the
hostellers and day scholars show a significant difference in their responsibility attitude
