the sections I had questions on is the ones that it starts to get into teens getting depression and i know it sounds stupid but i just ask to my self how do teens get depression and how does the emotional intelligence work.

# data[].attributes.body
What still confuses me is that researchers say that people EQ is way more important than their IQ.I understand that your EQ is what affects you when you have an outburst or temper tantrum.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the things that I understand really well is that you have to have a really good bond with someone which means you can trust them with all most anything and therefore you should be able to read that person which means you can tell if they're off. That is one of the things that I highlighted.

# data[].attributes.body
What still confuses me is how is EQ determined? is it a test the same way as IQ is? This confused me the most out of anything as i don't think that Emotional awareness/intelligence can be tested as easily as IQ the reason for this is because emotions and awareness of your emotions aren't a percentile or scale like intelligence

What i understand well is that EQ is important as it determines success levels, relationships, attitude, and mental state

# data[].attributes.body
I still wonder what EQ means I know it means Emotional Quotient but what does that mean fully mean? I also wonder how do they test it? It would have to be some kind of psychological test cause unlike an IQ test its entirely mental. And finally in what situations in a workplace makes it more important than IQ?

# data[].attributes.body
I personally am confused on how you figure out your EQ score.I understand what an Eq can do to contribute to your mental health and mental awareness and how important Eq is as a whole.

sometime i don't fully understand the text at first i have to read it over and over again to think deeper into the text to fully understand the meaning of the text on how people control their emotions.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how the author tried to mix depression and teens EQ,because he tries to tell us the reader what depression does to you then he goes back to the emotional intelligence and it just keeps going back and forth

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder how people can learn and master how to control their emotions so well. It's very hard for me personally to do that. I do understand how being able to emotionally connect with people is more important than just having regular academic type smarts.

# data[].attributes.body
The author I think is trying to persuade you to having emotions with people there wanting you to be able to trust people become friends with them which I honestly think at the age that all of us are at right now friendship might be the only thing that we have and might be keeping us from going crazy.

I questioned how i take the EQ test and how accurate are these test? How can people say our emotions are more importatnt than our IQ but teachers,parents anyone. Are so hard on us for grades we receive. But i understand how our EQ can affect and improve relashinoships we have with people. For example when you lash out on your friend they may get mad and walk away. But if you control how you feel about something, they could be more understanding.

# data[].attributes.headline
What confuses me is how does someone test for their EQ level? And are the results for the test the same as the ones for IQ where the higher the number the better? What I understand really well is that it is a powerful skill to be able to recognize and discern the feelings of others, making a connection and gaining trust.

I think I really understood the parts that I highlighted, because one part that I highlighted was talking about emotional learning among today's modern adolescents, and I can see how much now they are trying to talk and teach about emotions now. I also highlighted parts that say why the emotional learning is really important now, and how it could be better or used more than IQ now in situations.

# data[].attributes.body
A paragraph that really stood out to me is paragraph 8. I think its important how they included that because its talking about something a powerful skill that will help you your ENTIRE life. And i agree with the statement because not many people have conflict resolution. and it's very hard talking someone that doesn't understand that because they don't understand things the way you do.

# data[].attributes.body
I really liked paragraph two because it just said how teens EQ is way smarter than their actual IQ and it just stands out to me because my mind is blown after reading that

# data[].attributes.body
One thing I do not understand about the text is why is there no mention of the uses of Iq when they compare how Eq is more useful than Iq. I understand that Eq is more powerful if not just as useful as Iq because you can use Eq to get along with others and have self management and eliminate or manage stress.

# data[].attributes.body
One question I still want to know is exactly how EQ can control you so much. It can cause you to have stress, anxiety, and other bad things that can happen to your mental health if your EQ isn't good. Something I understand well is how EQ can help with your daily life. It helps in conversations with people and controlling your emotions. It can help you make friends and get jobs. Most importantly, it can help tone down the stress, anxiety and depression in your life and helps with your physical well being.

# data[].attributes.body
The text states since the people of today are going to get jobs, they need to be in top mental shape. Having the ability to discern and solve issues can help others relax and make work easier. The higher Emotional Quotient, or EQ, the more happy and fulfilling a job can be. This can also allow for greater bonds and overall trust between a group of 2 and above. This great skill also helps deal with anxiety and depression and communication to keep your future job positive.

# data[].attributes.body
The author is trying to inform the reader on the benefits of having a high Eq and the sections arent very large so they're easy to read through but the paragraphs are packed with information.

# data[].attributes.body
I didn't know that you had to understand your feelings to be able to have a good job. I also didn't realize that EQ is more important than IQ. Now I understand more about how much your emotions affect you in everything. Emotions can also help you connect with people.

# data[].attributes.body
I notice that the 1-4 paragraphs is what EQ is and how important this is and the 5-9 is showing how a good EQ helps your day to day. I think this choice is a good one since it first off helps you understand the information right off the bat then tells you what to do with this information and how to better yourself with it.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm very confused about how in the world u find your EQ score and how your EQ is more important than your IQ. One thing I understand really well is EQ is your emotional part and so that's why people have a bad temper and attitude problem.

# data[].attributes.body
The paragraph I´m choosing is number 7 because it relates to what I was saying is that developing a good and quality friendship is just sometimes the only thing we need besides family. I used to have a bunch of friends then I moved from them Then I couldn´t trust anybody till I got to know them better which in my opinion trust is key in a god friendship/ relationship.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that the way the reason the structure of the article is important is because, the author formats it in a list of advantages of EQ this makes it come off as more factual due to the fact that it covers multiple topics in the list format but can provide evidence for each fact in different paragraphs not all crammed into one

# data[].attributes.body
I see it in the whole text.It starts off with saying one thing interesting and then backing it up with more interesting facts.it helps us more understand more about what they said or mean when they say that.

# data[].attributes.body
As A read this text once again, I can only focus on a few points made in this dreadful text. "It can also help get rid of anxiety, help you deal with mood swings and avoid depression." That is the claim that boggles me. How could improving your EQ affect your anxiety, let alone get rid of it. It could just be me being over thinking things, but this seems like complete balderdash. The rest of the text is fine I suppose, and I have no trouble understanding it.

# data[].attributes.body
when i first read this i understood some things but most i didnt really understand. i understood when it was talking about how people get stressed and how emotional intelligence can help get rid of that. but it didnt really tell us how just told us its good thats what i didnt really get.

# data[].attributes.body
I saw that the author wrote the story in small paragraphs, which I kind of like more because I think more people would like to read more if the paragraphs were smaller and not as large. It could also be broken like that because it is a blog.

In the text the author structures the text as an informational text and describes different uses of Eq. The text talks about how Eq is the idea of self management and through this idea you can control stress and detect situations and yours and others actions, this allows you to take control of your situation.

# data[].attributes.headline
Paragraph 7 really stood out to me because I relate to it a lot. Developing a quality relationship is a skill everyone should definitly have and by better understanding your emotions, you would be able to better control yourself and your emotions. A Quality relationship is something everyone should have with someone because that relationship would either help you mentally or just be there for you in general.

When I first read the text I had a hard time understanding what EQ was and how to improve it so that I can have a healthier mental health.After reading the text it helped me understand what EQ was.I have social anxiety so reading this text also helped me learn more about mental health and how important having good mental health and how to manage stress and anxiety.

I say paragraph 2 stands out most to me. It talks about how Researchers say that our EQ is way more important than our IQ.I always thought our IQ was really important more than a lot of things.It says"Many psychologists are agreeing that a person’s level of emotional intelligence, their EQ, is in many cases, more important than their IQ."(paragraph 2)

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph three really stood out to me. this is because it teaches a really big idea and condenses it down to a paragraph while still teaching it really well and thoroughly. Even in the sentence "Your level of emotional intelligence is your ability to understand and recognize your own emotions and reactions" sums it up in a quick but thorough manner.

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph 4 stood out to me. It proved that EQ is important in your everyday life. It gave several examples, it can help being able to build relationships, relate to other peoples situations, working in a team, and fixing problems.

# data[].attributes.body
something I understand very well is how the author feels about what they wrote. I think it's a perfect example of how emotional intelligence affects us humans. And not everyone understands the way us human have certain emotions, reactions, conflict resolution, etc. Something that still kind of confuses me how your feelings can help you get a good job? I understand what its trying to say or mean but im still confused.

# data[].attributes.body
The author chose to give us a bunch of paragraphs about different skills in EQ, I think that this is a great way to organize all the information given in the text because it kind of splits it up a little bit and makes it easier to read and comprehend.

# data[].attributes.body
The author I think is trying to get people  to having emotions with people there needing you to be able to trust people become friends with them which I honestly think at the age that all of us are at right now friendship might be the only thing that we might need. Also the author is trying to tell us that many psychologist are calming having good eq sometime is better than having a good iq

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph 3 was eye catching to me because it explains how Emotional Intelligence is the ability of being able to recognize yours and others actions and mood. Through knowing and being able to recognize these themes you can control your mood, emotions, and responses.

# data[].attributes.body
It confuses me how I can tell my EQ, and how my EQ is determind. Also how accurate the test may be. How is our EQ is more important than our IQ. But our bong with peers aalso matters in the world. If we yell and dont control our emotions we could lead that friend to be mad and walk away. But if we control our emotions our peers could be more considerate.

# data[].attributes.body
I think paragraph five stood out to me the most because it talks about the main benefits of high Eq and it was explained very well it says in the text that "it can also help get rid of anxiety, help you deal with mood swings and avoid depression.

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph 2 really stood out to me because, the author starts off by stating that IQ usually hailed as the most important factor in success is actually not as important a quote from the author "Experts are discovering that a person's EQ is not only a more efficient predictor of the quality of potential relationships , but also an effective measure of success and overall happiness."
i think that this is the most important part of the paragraph as it shows that you don't have to be Steven Hawking levels of intelligence to be successful in life.

# data[].attributes.body
The author gives us different reasons in almost paragraph but they all add up to the conclusion or the message he is trying to get us to understand.

# data[].attributes.body
i see the author is breaking it down and giving a lot of information about what they wrote. this is mainly in the whole text but i see a lot in paragraph 2 because she id giving details on some people who have talked about emotional intelligence. i personally like how the author put this text together their is a lot of info.

# data[].attributes.headline
The idea that it is a poweful skill to be able to recognize someones feeling and being able to understand their feelings. This conveys to me as a reader by how it that understanding someones feelings can have an impact on that person and that person might relate to you more or like you more. I saw this in paragraph 4.

# data[].attributes.body
The authro uses persuasive choices to get his point across. He states details that may mix with your emotions, or may make us rethink what we believe. Makes the text relate to everyday feelings, or what soemone goes through in their daily lifetime.

# data[].attributes.body
I think paragraph 5 really stood out because it talks about how a lot of young people are stressed and have a lot of pressure, and if you have a better EQ than it can help your mood and attitude change for the better and it can also help get rid of anxiety, help with mood swings, and help you avoid depression.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose paragraph 8 because it tells about having the skill of conflict resolution. I think that this is a great skill and it really stood out to me. In the text, it says that having this skill is really helpful in life and it takes being able to see both perspectives of the argument.

# data[].attributes.body
In paragraph four, the author states," Being able to build relationships, relate to other people in any given social situation, work as part of a team and negotiate any conflicts that may arise, are prominent core elements to social emotional intelligence." This paragraph when summarized means being able to communicate to others, solving social situations, and working together to solve issues. All of these skills can be used to make working at a company easier and less difficult.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how the author mixed sadness and teens because he tries to tell the reader what sadness does to you then he goes back to emotional intelligence. I think at the age that all of us are at right now friendship is the only thing that we have right now.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that is present throughout the text is evidence to back up the writers claim. (It has no counterpoint but that's not on topic) Meany times you can see statements such as "The skill of conflict resolution is one many people wish they had." And while this might not be solid evidence, it could still get the same affect as actual evidence.

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed the author had several different paragraphs, and each one talked about just one benefit of good EQ. In one paragraph it said how it can help with making friends. In another paragraph it said how it can help in fixing problems because you can see the other side of the argument. This helped me better understand the article because by putting it in different paragraphs, I was able to focus on just one benefit so I was able to take more away at the end.

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph 5 is the one that truly captures my attention. what this paragraph is is just telling the reader that your mental well being is all dependent on you and your EQ can fix all of it. It just really seems insensitive and is something that truly makes me upset.

# data[].attributes.body
paragraph 5 really stood out to me because it talks about stress and anxiety and that helps me because i stress a lot. in the article it says those who lack the skills to deal with these stresses have a higher chance of acting out due to lack of mental well being.

# data[].attributes.body
In the fifth paragraph, the author states,"Think about your mental well-being. Many of today’s young people deal with stress and pressure each day. Those who lack the skills to deal with these stresses have a higher chance of acting out due to a lack of mental well-being. Having emotional intelligence skills affects both your outlook and attitude. It can also help get rid of anxiety, help you deal with mood swings and avoid depression." One reason why I chose this paragraph from the article is I used to act out in class. Something that helped me solve that issue was limiting the amount of people I talked to at school so I could focus harder and letting it all out at home. Another reason I picked this paragraph was I used to have anxiety, so I started following a tight schedule so I didn't have to worry as much because everything would be the same every single day, so there would be basically nothing to be anxiou about.

# data[].attributes.body
The author made it show how emotions affect you in everyday life. Like how it could help you for a job or communicating with people. It helps the reader understand it better by giving examples of how it helps you.

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph 5 shows a lot. It tells us that many young readers deal with depresion and anxiety. In todays world its not that easy to just get rid of it. It takes time and thought. And the author telling us that our EQ can fix it all just makes me irrated.

# data[].attributes.headline
The other used facts in there text.An example is in paragraph 2 when the author said that psychologist said that EQ is more important than IQ.The author also gave advice to us readers to help us improve are social skills.The author also used patterns to show how stress can lead to anxiety.

Paragraph 2 because it talks about EQ and IQ. It states that EQ is more important than IQ. Which sounds strange because normally you would think IQ is more important. That's why that paragraph caught my eye.
