Abstract

Introduction: The development of emotional intelligence has a positive impact on the process of adaptation of migrants from Ukraine in the European Union and prevents the spread of addictions. Aim: The aim of this research was to study the relationship between migrants' emotional intelligence and the development of addictions in the context of adaptation to new conditions due to the hostilities. Methods: the study used such methods as testing and questionnaires, respectively, ASI and Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT). Results: It was found that individuals with a higher level of emotional intelligence have a lower tendency to form various types of addictions, while those with a lower level of EI are more vulnerable to these problems. This suggests that a high level of emotional intelligence contributes to better emotion management, the ability to adapt to stressful situations, and a better understanding of one's own needs and motivations. Conclusion: a high level of emotional intelligence makes it possible to prevent the formation of dependencies in the process of cross-cultural adaptation of migrants from Ukraine to new conditions against the background of a hostilities in Ukraine.
