Background: language deficits may contribute to behavior problems by interfering with the
understanding and communication of requests and needs to others, and by interfering with
emotional and behavioral regulation. Aim of the study: was to evaluate the effect of
emotional-social intelligence on aggressive behavior of children with hearing impairment.
Subjects & methods: Research design: A quasi experimental design was used in this
study. Setting &Subjects: A total number of pupils is 246 pupils. There was a potential of 54
pupils with hearing impairment were chosen from EL-Amal institutions at Sharkia Governorate
who had higher aggressive behavior, Tools of data collection: Three tools were used; the
first tool was an interview questionnaire covered the demographic characteristics of children,
and their past health history. The second tool was aggressive behavior assessment, and the
third tool was emotional- socio assessment questionnaire. Results: Regarding overall mean
aggressive behavior among children before intervention was 63.1±24.1which was reduced
after intervention to 35.9±13.9 and increased during follow up period to reach 44.1±6.9.
However, there was a highly statistically significant difference in the mean score of aggressive
behavior. Moreover, pre-post intervention, the total mean of social intelligence was 4.9±1.8
changed to 11.0± 2.1, and the total mean of emotional intelligence was 2.8±0.9 changed to
6.8±1.4. Conclusion: This study results provided evidence that the emotional- socio
intelligence played a significant role on reducing aggressive behavior among the hearing
impaired children. Recommendations: provision of Newborn hearing screening, health
education of the public clarifying the adverse effects of interrelated marriage, Genetic
counseling, premarital, and antenatal screening, emotional-social intelligence based
curriculums and Training intervention programs about how to adapt with hearing impairment.
