Study was administered among 24 young adults, both male and female of age between 20-28 years, out of these, 12 were from nuclear families and 12 were from joint families. For the assessment of personality traits, NEO-FFI-3 developed by McCrae and Costa (1986) was used. And The Schutte Self-Report Emotional Intelligence Scale (SSREI: Schutte et al, 1988) was used for assessment of Emotional Intelligence. The data collected was analyzed with the help of various statistical techniques like t-test and correlation using SPSS. The results indicated that there is no significant difference in mean scores of personality and emotional intelligence of young adults belonging to nuclear families and joint families. And Emotional Intelligence is found to be positively correlated with Extraversion, and Openness dimensions of personality and no correlation was found in emotional intelligence with Neuroticism, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness dimensions of personality.
