본 연구는 정서지능 교육 프로그램이 초등학교 아동의 갈등해결전략과 또래관계에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위해 실시되었다. 서울시 소재 S초등학교 5학년 한 반을 실험집단으로 하고, 정서지능 검사와 갈등해결전략 검사 및 또래관계 검사를 사전검사로 실시하여 실험집단과 동질성이 확보된 한 개 반을 통제집단으로 선정하였다. 실험집단 대상에게는 일주일에 세 번, 회기 당 50~60분씩 총 10회기에 걸쳐 실험처치 하였으며 통제집단은 무처치하였다. 실험처치 후집단 간 정서지능검사, 갈등해결전략검사, 또래관계 검사의 사전, 사후 검사를 비교 분석하였고, 실험집단의 각 회기별 소감문, 연구자의 관찰기록, 프로그램 평가 설문 등을 분석하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 정서지능 교육 프로그램을 실시한 실험집단은 통제집단에 비해 전체 정서지능이 유의미하게 향상되지는 않았지만 정서지능의 하위변인인 정서인식 및 표현, 사고 촉진, 정서 활용, 정서조절이 유의미하게 증가하였다. 둘째, 정서지능 교육 프로그램을 실시한 실험집단은 통제집단에 비해 갈등해결전략 중 양보전략과 회피전략이 유의미하게 감소되었다. 셋째, 정서지능 교육 프로그램을 실시한 실험집단은 통제집단에 비해 또래관계 능력이 유의미하게 향상되었으며 또래관계의 하위변인인 만족감, 의사소통, 친근감, 신뢰감이 유의미하게 향상되었다.
