Data are analysed in descriptive statistics and inferential Pearson correlation (r) from SPSS 20.0. The results show that there is a strong positive colleration between the emotional intelligence of teachers with Negotiator discipline style (r =.687, p ˂.01), while, medium colleration exists between emotional intelligence with Supporter discipline style (r =.530, p ˂.01), Compromiser (r =.480, p˂.01), Abdicator (r =.397, p˂.01), and emotional intelligence show weak colleration with Enforcer discipline style (r =.243, p ˂.01).
