Abstract
The present study is an attempt to study the ethical intelligence of the students of state universities in Tehran. A total of 369 students from Amirkabir, Tarbiat Modaress, Tarbiat Moallem, Shahid Beheshti and Sharief Technical Universities were randomly selected. The required data was collected with the help of MCI questionnaire to examine 10 factors and 40 variables. The present research is a descriptive survey using single sample t test, Friedman test, and Spearman test of correlation to analyze the data. The findings of the study indicate that moral competencies such as consistently with principles, values and beliefs, telling the truth, standing up for what is right, keeping promises, taking responsibility for personal choices, admitting mistakes and failures, embracing responsibility for serving others, actively caring about others, ability to forgive one’s own mistakes and ability to forgive others’ mistakes were above average. Friedman’s test results show that there is a significant difference between moral intelligence factors. Furthermore, the results of correlation test demonstrate a significant positive relationship between age and level of education with ethical intelligence.
