본 연구는 유아의 정서지능이 영성지능에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여, G광역시 소재 유아교육기관에서 만3-5세 유아를 담당하는 교사 304명을 대상으로 한 설문지를 분석하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 유아의 배경변인에 따른 정서지능과 영성지능의 차이를 살펴본 결과, 유아의 성별에서는 남아보다 여아가, 종교유무에서는 종교를 갖지 않은 유아보다 종교를 가진 유아가 전체 정서지능과 영성지능 모두에서 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 유아의 연령에서는 정서지능은 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았으나, 영성지능에서는 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 둘째, 유아의 정서지능과 영성지능 간의 상관관계가 있는지를 살펴본 결과, 전체 정서지능과 전체 영성지능 간에 높은 정적상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 정서지능과 영성지능의 모든 하위변인들 간에 유의한 정적상관관계가 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 셋째, 유아의 정서지능의 하위변인이 영성지능의 하위변인에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 영성지능의 하위변인에서는 삶의 에너지에 자기정서인식과 타인정서조절이, 타인과 사물과의 관계성 및 긍정적 미래관에는 자기정서조절과 타인정서인식, 타인정서조절이, 통합적 에너지는 정서지능의 모든 하위변인이 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다.
