The paper aims at offering an analysis of the literature related to theories and concepts of self-efficacy, a central component of social cognitive theory, in the area of communication by focusing on the various factors affecting learners' self-efficacy:attitude, motivation, behaviour, anxiety, self-belief, intention, pedagogy, involvement and teacher efficacy. Self-efficacy questions in English as Second Language (ESL) are often representative of each of the four language domains: speaking, reading, writing, and listening. The relationship between self-efficacy and language learning has been studied by many researchers.

The paper reports on the selection and validation phase of an emotional intelligence scale. Nowadays, diverse psychometric instruments are commercialized and applied in order to select personnel or to evaluate knowledge, abilities and skills in business and educational settings (Drasgow et al., 2009). Since decisions about individuals are based on results of these tests, the validity and reliability of such instruments is of considerable importance (Kline, 2000). Statistical testing of reliability and validity of a psychological instrument helps to evaluate to which extent the predictions made on this instrument represents the latent construct aimed to be measured. The study uses the method of item analysis. It analyses the reliability and validity of a questionnaire that measures Emotional Intelligence skills of a random sample of 200 from a Multi-sector State Private University in India. The study provided that it has an acceptable reliability and validity, and the questionnaire can be used in exploring the emotional intelligence of people in higher education among sample of University population and beyond.Keywords

Communication is central to the development of all professional organizations. The 21st century has seen an unprecedented preoccupation with communication process. Self-help-books, therapy and advice column rebound with the messages that ineffective communication is the ischolar_main of all organization problems. Effective communication is the ultimate panacea of all problems. Hence in this paper, the researchers discuss the selection and validation phase of a communication measure adapted from HTC Consulting. The validated measure can be used by all higher educational organizations to raise the awareness among employees on how well they communicate. This will also help them to develop effective communication strategies, communication exchange, improve creativity, manage conflict, minimize miscommunication and create alternatives for solving problems when they are at the workplace. Indeed the questions asked in the assessment could be used over a lifetime in trying to understand the inner workings of organizations and improve communication.Keywords
