%0 Journal Article %T Social Networking on Web 2.0: From Emotional Intelligence to Cyber Emotional Intelligence %A Adel Ben Youssef %A Hamida Ben Youssef %J International Scientific Journal of Management Information Systems %D 2011 %I University of Novi Sad %X The aim of this article is twofold. First, we characterize the social interactions in the Web 2.0 and the forms of intelligence used by people in that context. Second, we propose cyber emotional entelligence as an alternative construct for the explanation of Internet-based social interactions. We stress the differences between the notion of emotional intelligence as developed by Salovey and Mayer and Cyber Emotional Intelligence that we propose. It appears that at each stage people do not have the same ability to express and manage their emotions. %K emotional intelligence %K social networks %K Cyber Emotional Intelligence %U http://www.ef.uns.ac.rs/mis/archive-pdf/2011%20-%20No2/04_Adel%20Ben%20Youssef,%20Hamida%20Ben%20Youssef.pdf
