Resumo

Persons affected by psychological trauma as a result of the full-scale war in Ukraine need the skills to effectively cope with stress and negative emotions. Developed emotional intelligence (EI) is effective for this purpose. The aim of the research is to identify the impact of EI on strategies for coping with psychological trauma. Methods: BASIC Ph test, Emotional Intelligence Test, The Coping Strategy Indicator (CSI). Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics, Kruskal–Wallis test, and regression analysis. Ukrainian immigrants were found to have high self-motivation and empathy, medium recognition of emotions and emotional awareness. The EI was proven to explain 73% of affective and cognitive strategies for coping with trauma, while explaining 82% of problem-solving coping strategies. The results are valuable in view of the prolonged state of war, which is a constant traumatic factor. Elaboration for the EI development strategies can expand the range of psychological assistance to Ukrainian internal migrants in coping with psychological trauma. Research prospects include determining the impact of individual personal characteristics of immigrants on their EI and coping strategy.
