The aim of research was to assess the predictive power of selected personality factors that are related to emotions in the decision-making process of paramedics. The focus of this study lies in emotional intelligence according to the model of Cooper and Sawaf (1997), styles of decision-making according to the Theory of Cognitive and Experiential Self (Epstein, 2003), Stroop's resilience and Big Five personality traits as possible predictors of decision-making of paramedics. 92 paramedics participated in the study which employed the Iowa Gambling Task, EQTM map, Stroop test, Rational-Experiential Inventory and NEO-FFI. The authors determined gender specifications of the predictors of decision-making of paramedics. In paramedics (men), it was possible to predict appropriate decision-making based on emotional stability, extraversion and quick reactions in the Stroop test. Appropriate decision-making of female paramedics could be predicted based on two zones of emotional intelligence (low emotional awareness and positive current conditions) and on quick reactions in the Stroop test. The obtained results are interpreted with respect to specific gender expectations within the paramedic profession and the ability to resist negative emotions in the decision-making process.

The aim of the research was to verify the correlation between emotional intelligence and decision-making in the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) conducted on a non-clinical sample. Our research is based on neuropsychological results that show the functional link between the cortex areas processing emotions and managing decision-making. The somatic marker hypothesis describes a decisional process through marker arising during bioregulation. The bioregulative processes have the form of emotions and feelings, whereas it is assumed that the somatic marker hypothesis overlaps with emotional intelligence. The research sample of 174 female students was administered the electronic form of the Iowa Gambling Task and the Emotional Intelligence Test (EQTM). A positive relation was found between emotion awareness and the number of advantageous card choices in the IGT. At the same time a negative relation was found between the present situation as an EQTM zone and the number of advantageous choices in the IGT. The results interpretation follows the use of emotions as information in the decision-making process in complex situations and uncertainty.
