المستخلص Introduction Special Education IS one of the academic fields that has confronted several challenges in its way to development and progress; but now it has a prominent position among the different academic and Educational fields. -1I!!!!l!!!!-1B!!!!!!l_!I!!!I!!!!lI!I!II!!!!!!II __ ~.Summary ~. •• _ •• !!!! Working in the field of Special Education is one of the highly humane and difficult works that requires great efforts from those working in the field, especially the teacher. The special Education teacher encounters difficulties, problems and different pressures more than the teacher of normal students, and this in turn affects the special education teacher’s job satisfaction. So, we find some teachers satisfied with their job, enthusiastic and well-adjusted with their job; whereas, other teachers are dissatisfied with their job and have negative attitudes towards it and a feeling of frustration, failure and inability to fulfill work requirements; so, these teachers tend to change their job or even abandon it forever, and this in turn result in loss of work force in this field. Researchers have been interested in special education teacher’s occupational adjustment and factors affecting it. So, many studies aimed atinvestigating occupational adjustment and job satisfaction of special education teachers; but none of these studies- within the researcher’s knowledge- investigated directly the possible relationship between· Emotional Intelligence and occupational adjustment of special education teachers and this what motivated the current researcher to do this study. ----------~41l6i.l’Po !!!l!!!!!!!!!!!IIII!!!!!!I!!lIll!!llll 1!!! 1!!l!l!lII!!!!I!!I!!!!!!!I!!I!!!!!!!!!ll!!!_!I!!!l!!!!!!!!!l!!!I!!!!--~Summary ~ _ •• _~ _ Research Questions The problem of the current study can be determined in the following questions: 1-Is there a significant correlation between Emotional Intelligence and occupational adjustment among special education teachers? 2- What’s the difference in Emotional Intelligence and its subscales among special education teachers according to gender and years of experience and the interaction between them? 3- What is the difference in occupational adjustment and its subscales among special education teachers according to gender and years of experience and interaction between them? 4- Is it possible for emotional Intelligence and its subscales to predict occupational adjustment among special education teachers?
