The research hypothesized positive correlations between psychological capital and psychological well-being, as well as components of psychological capital (hope, self-efficacy, resilience, and optimism) and psychological well-being. This was a quantitative study with a correlational design. The data was collected through purposive sampling from 80 bank employees (40 males and 40 females) aged between 25-30 years, representing various hierarchical levels within the banking sector. The data was analyzed through the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Results indicated gender discrepancies in both psychological capital and psychological well-being among bank employees. Additionally, psychological capital demonstrated a positive correlation with psychological well-being. Components of psychological capital, efficacy, resilience, and optimism showed positive correlations with psychological well-being, while hope displayed a negative correlation. These findings underscored the importance of psychological capital in fostering psychological well-being among bank employees.</em></p> Priyanka Gautam Samriddhi Jha Copyright (c) 2025 EPH - International Journal of Educational Research 2025-02-28 2025-02-28 9 1 10 15 10.53555/ephijer.v9i1.135 http://ephijer.com/index.php/er/article/view/133 <p>Emotional intelligence is an essential component of all fundamental nursing education programs and the nursing profession as a whole. Its implementation in nursing is critical because it provides nurses with the skills they need to manage stress, negotiate emotions, and develop connections with patients, families, and other healthcare providers.
