Abstract:
This study investigates the relationship between mental health and emotional intelligence among senior high school students in
a public school. Thus, the study employed a correlational design to measure the relationship between mental health and
emotional intelligence among 152 Grade 12 senior high school students in a public school. Hence, to measure the study’s
variables - Mental Health Inventory and Emotional Intelligence Scale (EIS) were utilized. Based on the inferential statistics,
the r coefficient of 0.32 indicates a low positive correlation between the variables and a p-value of 0.00, indicating a significant
relationship between the respondents' mental health and emotional intelligence. Implications and recommendations were
discussed in the study.
