Emotional intelligence (EI) is crucial for pharmacists, impacting professional identity. Integrating EI into pharmacy education requires further discussion and curriculum development to meet future accreditation standards.
Area of Science:
- Pharmacy Education
- Healthcare Professional Development
- Emotional Intelligence Research
Background:
- Emotional intelligence (EI) encompasses self-perception, expression, relationships, decision-making, and stress management.
- These EI components are integral to the formation of professional identity in healthcare professionals.
- Limited research exists on effectively integrating EI into pharmacy education and practice.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze core EI concepts and their role in professional identity formation.
- To investigate methods for incorporating EI into pharmacy education.
- To identify gaps in current pharmacy curricula regarding EI.
Main Methods:
- A literature review was conducted across PubMed, Google Scholar, ProQuest, and ERIC.
- Search terms included "emotional intelligence," "professional identity formation," and "pharmacy curriculum."
- Twenty articles focusing on EI in pharmacy education were included.
Main Results:
- Commonly taught EI elements in pharmacy education include self-awareness, empathy, and interdisciplinary relationships.
- Assessment tools are predominantly subjective, qualitative, or semiquantitative (surveys, questionnaires).
- The literature shows scarcity in analyzing EI's role in pharmacy practice and education.
Conclusions:
- Comprehensive EI integration into pharmacy curricula is challenging.
- Further discussion is needed on incorporating EI for professional identity development.
- Addressing EI gaps is essential for meeting Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education 2025 standards.
