By INDRA ADI BUDIMAN

Chancellor of Majalengka University
 Background
Self-regulation is an integral part
of the individual self that consistently
regulates and manages individual thoughts,
emotions, behavior and environment

Self-regulation in this study

is placed as a moderator variable
that might strengthen or weaken
the relationship between emotional intelligence
and quality of life of students
Emotional Intelligence
. Emotional intelligence is a composite construct,
including different emotional reasoning abilities,
such as the ability to receive,
understand, and regulate emotions that have
a major influence on one's life satisfaction.
 Quality of Life
Quality of life is a very important aspect because it covers all areas of life including health,
hope, work, family, environment and other life situations

.
Quality of life is a person's perception
of the conditions of cultural life
and the value system
in which the individual is associated
with goals, expectations and concerns. (WHO)

All University Students Participants:

1. Students who have a high level of emotional intelligence show a better quality of
life
2. Quality of life is a variable that can increase the life satisfaction of each student
3. Individuals who have high emotional intelligence are individuals who have the
ability for themselves, adapt to their environment, manage the pressures and
problems they face and regulate their moods by always assessing their best side.
4. Humans are gregarious and social creatures, so emotional intelligence helps build
closer relationships

Quality of Life:
Non-Sport University Students Participants:

1. Caused by a lack of movement in physical activity, the

higher a person's age, the quality of life will decrease,
because of a declining physical condition.

activities causes psychosomatic health problems such
as symptoms of panic, anxiety, stress and bad moods
3. The main causes that affect quality of life are
psychological factors or mental-emotional disorders
and risky behaviors such as smoking, lack of physical
activity, drinking alcohol or not eating enough fiber.
