outcomes. To this end, we outlined a theoretical modelthat aims to clarify the underlying processes that explain the relationship between emotional intelligence and career-related outcomes.We relied upon a systematic review procedure to identify these processes and outcomes. Second, we performed a meta-analyticinvestigation to compare the overall effect sizes between emotional intelligence and career-related outcomes. Third, to better un-derstand the robustness of these relationships, we performed a set of moderation analyses to examine which variables may influencethe relationships between emotional intelligence and career-related outcomes. Based on the current findings, the final objective of thepresent research was to highlight the main limitations in the investigation of emotional intelligence in career sciences and develop afuture research agenda

he current research addresses this gap by proposing an integrated theoretical model andconducting a systematic review and meta-analysis of emotional intelligence and its associationswith career-related outcomes
