About EQ Score Estimate Calculator

The four Goleman domains are each scored out of 25 and added, so the total runs from 0 to 100 with equal weight on each domain. The domain breakdown is more actionable than the total, since self regulation and empathy respond to deliberate practice in quite different ways.

Formula
