چکیده
The present research aimed to examine how emotional quotient mediates the link between work gratification and career life quality for employees at Sistan and Baluchestan University in Zahedan, Iran. The statistical population for this study comprised all staff at Sistan and Baluchestan University, and a sample of 155 employees was selected using convenience sampling. Participants completed the Work Gratification Questionnaire created by Brayfield & Rothe (1951), the Emotional Quotient Questionnaire by Chadha (2001), and the Career Quality of Life Scale established by Van Laar, Edwards, & Easton (2007). The results showed that work gratification significantly and positively influenced all dimensions of quality of work life. Emotional quotient did not notably affect the components of career quality of life. Work gratification did not exert an indirect influence through emotional intelligence on the career quality of life. Emotional quotient did not significantly influence the relationship between work gratification and career quality of life for staff in the University of Sistan and Baluchestan.
