ENSince a family plays a significant role in the development of a personality in the childhood, it is very important to find out, what are the exact social and psychological family factors that are the most essential for the development of emotional intelligence (EI). In the study, data from 1,430 subjects was collected in various regions of Lithuania. The average subject age was 19.7 years (SD=3.29). 43.2 per cent men and 55.5 per cent women (1.3 per cent of participants have not specified their gender) participated in the research. The majority of subjects were high school (56.7 per cent) and university (35.2 per cent) students. EI-DARL methodology (Antiniene & Lekaviciene, 2014) was used to assess EI. It was established that EI level is statistically significantly related to some family factors: psychological climate in the family, strength of subject relations with their mother/ father, subjective perception of family financial status, etc. [From the publication]
