Abstract

The aim was to identify the relationship between the relation to work and social intelligence according to its individual factors. The subject of the research was the mayors of municipalities in Slovakia. The survey was attended by 787 mayors from a total of 2,753 (28.5%). To obtain the empirical data, a standardized social intelligence questionnaire based on MESI’s psychometric approach was used, and the questionnaire finds a relationship with Job Satisfaction Instrument (JSI). The results of the research were processed using the SPSS 21 statistical software. To test the nature of relationships and dependencies between variables and to test the tightness of the relationship between the studied variables, a correlation analysis was used using the Pearson correlation coefficient, which expresses the degree of tightness of the linear relationship between the two (interval) variables. Research has found that the higher the rate of social irritability the mayor has, the more positive is his relationship to the job.
