In the recent years, the widespread interest in the relationship between emotional intelligence and performance has led to the development of a substantial body of literature. In spite of this ongoing attention, the subject of emotional intelligence and performance is still in a contradictory and controversial phase. Thus, a need remains for the development and testing of hypotheses relating the different dimensions of the emotional intelligence to performance. The goal of this research was to extend prior work on individual competencies and performance and investigate the possible relationship between academic staff members’ competencies (self awareness and self management) and their educational performance and to determine the role of their working life quality as an intervening variable. The results based on 930 questionnaire responses collected from 72 universities in a field study indicate that the extent of educational performance is positively and significantly associated with their self awareness and self management. Besides, the quality of the university working life interferes with the relationship between these variables.

Introduction: A lack of sense of belonging to the university among students may contribute significantly to educational underachievement and adaptation challenges within higher education institutions. However, little is known about the antecedents of students' sense of belonging. This study aimed to determine the role of autonomy, competence, communication and individual interest in predicting students' sense of belonging to the university. Methods: This study employed a descriptive-correlational design. The research sample comprised all undergraduate students at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad during the first semester of the 2008-2019 academic year. A total of 450 students were chosen through stratified random sampling. Data were gathered using questionnaires on The Basic Needs Satisfaction in General Scale, Individual Interest, and Belonging to the University Scale. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 24, employing Pearson's correlation and multiple regression analysis. Results: The study uncovered significant reciprocal relationships between the fulfillment of needs for competence, autonomy, relatedness, individual interest, and the sense of university belonging. Furthermore, multiple regression analysis indicated that, except for individual interest, the factors of competence, autonomy, and communication significantly forecasted the students' sense of belonging to the university. Conclusion: The findings underscore the critical importance of meeting fundamental psychological needs in shaping students' sense of belonging to their university. These insights could serve as a foundation for devising effective strategies in the realm of higher education.
