After the initial theory of Gardner, some more intelligence theories have been developed and one of those is the emotional intelligence.
According to wikipedia:
Emotional intelligence (EI) is the ability to identify, assess, and control the emotions of oneself, of others, and of groups. Various models and definitions have been proposed of which the ability and trait EI models are the most widely accepted in the scientific literature. Criticisms have centered on whether the construct is a real intelligence and whether it has incremental validity over IQ and the Big Five personality dimensions.
So the Emotional Intelligence includes these four abilities:
- Perceiving emotions
- using emotions
- understanding emotions
- managing emotions
You can find an emotional intelligence test over here
