I am having questionnaire for Emotional Intelligence, Emotional creativity. and The Impact of event scale to be used to measure trauma symptoms.What do you think of putting them together in my research?
If you use them individually you can have all 3 measures as independent variables in a regression analysis where trauma symptoms are the dependent variable.It may though be a better idea to use emotional intelligence (EI) and gender and age groups as independent variables in a separate model. Then you continue with Emotional creativity. and The Impact of event scale. You have to try out what model is significant.
