Abstract	There is growing interest in the relationship between trait emotional intelligence (TEI) and (language) teacher attitudes, as research has shown that these two factors impact student outcomes. This study explores the relationship between 334 Croatian English as a Foreign Language (EFL teachers’ TEI and their attitudes toward their students, teaching practices and profession. Quantitative data were collected via online questionnaires measuring TEI and attitudes. Spearman correlation and linear regression revealed significant positive correlations between higher overall TEI scores and positive attitudes about self-efficacy, job satisfaction and teacher-student relationships. Furthermore, distinct patterns of association were observed between the four TEI factors (well-being, emotionality, self-control and sociability) and specific attitudes. The results highlight the crucial role of emotional intelligence in shaping EFL teacher attitudes, offering implications for (future) teacher training and professional development initiatives.
Abstract (croatian)	Sve je veći interes za odnos između emocionalne inteligencije (TEI) i stavova nastavnika (jezika) jer istraživanja pokazuju kako ova dva faktora utječu na ishode učenika. Ovo istraživanje istražuje odnos između TEI i stavova prema učenicima, nastavnim praksama i struci kod 334 hrvatskih nastavnika engleskoga kao stranoga jezika. Kvantitativni podaci prikupljeni su putem internetskih upitnika koji mjere TEI i stavove. Spearmanova korelacija i linearna regresija pokazale su značajne pozitivne korelacije između većih rezultata na upitniku koji mjeri TEI i pozitivnih stavova o samoučinkovitosti, zadovoljstvu poslom i odnosima s učenicima. Također su primijećeni različiti obrasci povezanosti između četiri faktora TEI (dobrobit, emocionalnost, samokontrola i društvenost) i pojedinih stavova. Rezultati naglašavaju važnu ulogu emocionalne inteligencije u oblikovanju stavova nastavnika engleskoga kao stranoga jezika i nude implikacije za obuku (budućih) nastavnika i inicijative profesionalnog razvoja.
