I think many of the university professors who are doing the research have missed the point. I think they can't see why emotional intelligence is really important to humanity. I also believe they don't fully understand how a abusive environment can affect someone's emotional responses later in life. I used to read all their articles and try to translate them to more simple English so others around the world could get some practical value from them, but now I find this is too hard to do. It takes too much time. They write in what I call Phidish, the language of PhD's. They don't write for the average person. Some professors are also making money as consultants and some of these same professors have shown me little interest or no in helping prevent teen suicide, a topic which is very close to my heart after the many years I have volunteered my services. Many professors are also simply too insulated from direct work and contact with children. Most also stay one place and don't have the cross-cultural and wide range of experience I have gained myself through traveling and many kinds of work with people of all levels in society. I have lost a lot of faith in the academic world. I suggest that f you want to help people, or learn something useful for your own life, read my note to psych. students.

One update I do have is this page on a recent article about the MSCEIT test and my comments about it
