ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
After almost a year of hard work, commitment, patience, and
frustrations, the researchers can now appreciate the fruit of their
labor. In spite of the fact that each of them had their own
shortcomings to address apart from the need to fulfill the demands
set by making the thesis, they were still able to overcome these
tribulations and therefore, were able to set their minds and hearts
toward a common goal; hence, the fulfillment of the research.
This roller-coaster ride had led the researchers to shaping
and molding themselves as persons. The ups and downs of the
process of making this paper made them strong enough to have a firm
stand for the things they knew were right yet humble enough to
accept criticisms and open enough to be corrected for their mistakes.
Nevertheless, this journey wouldn't be possible without the help
of these great people who unconditionally gave their time and effort to
impart to them their knowledge and expertise in making an ideal
thesis. The following are the people who served as the foundation of
this paper:
To the parents of the researchers, for giving them enough
resources, accommodations, and funds, for the general welfare and
fulfillment of the study. Most of all, the researchers would want to

send their deepest thanks and appreciation for their unconditional
love;
To MJSD, the researchers' nursing level coordinator and
statistician for giving them his personal insights with the study. His
organize and timely manner of doing things relative to their paper
made the process smoother and less difficult;
To RMP, the researchers' former adviser for imparting with
them all of his expertise in making a good paper and for sharing with
them all his experiences in communicating his previous researches.
Truly, his contributions had led the paper to its success;
To CVDR, the researchers' adviser for giving with them all his
technical knowledge and expertise to the construction of the general
paper and the making of the final chapters of the thesis;
To JAAR, the researchers' NURES II professor for giving her
prudent and constructive criticisms in light with her knowledge and
credible experience in making a paper. Truly, her intellectual
appraisal of the researchers' paper played a big part for them to be
focused on the things that matter most;
To ALPO, guidance head officer of Our Lady of Fatima
University for giving us the permission to utilize and disseminate the
BarOn EQi tool;

To MVA, guidance counselor of Our Lady of Fatima University
for patiently explaining the technicalities of the BarOn EQi tool;
To MB, the university's pychometrist and his co-workers, for
accommodating the researchers to their office and teaching them the
whole process of computing for the BarOn EQi data;
To all the other anonymous persons in the academe who helped
the researchers in every way they could in order to accomplish the
paper, our sweetest thanks!
Of course, apart from the academe persons, the researchers
wanted to extend their full and deepest gratitude to their friends,
classmates, and former classmates who gave their scholarly insights
relative to the construction and final touches of the whole paper.
To VC, a friend of the principal author for sharing her
intellectual evaluation of the paper. Her best intentions and
constructive criticisms in terms of the grammatical organization had
lessen the burden of the researchers;
To PD, a friend of the principal author for giving her honest
opinion on the lacking and dull areas of the paper. Her brutal yet
true appraisal motivated the researchers to further the
accomplishment of the paper;
To MF, EJ, and A the principal author's siblings for helping the
researchers in the agonizing process of data tallying;

Yet, none of these things would be fulfilled without the divine
guidance, grace, and love of the Almighty God. All of the happy
moments and accomplishments along with the tribulations and
frustrations that the researchers had experienced were all willed by
Him.
As stated in the book of Ecclesiastes, there is a time for
everything... As true as it is, the time has come for the researchers to
rejoice for the fulfillment of the research.
The time has also come to give all the praises and glory back to
Him who made everything in accordance to His will.
To this very moment, the researchers truly believe that one of
their purposes in life was fulfilled as to the accomplishment of the
study.

Abstract
In light with determination of several variables that can
potentially and actually affect the nurses clinical performance the
researchers arrived at testing the impact of EQ relative to competency
of the nurses' performance in their workplace. Moreover, for practical
and economic reasons, the study was also conducted to determine the
relationship of a person's EQ to their color preference. The study used
a quantitative approach. Results were extracted from the responses of
30 Filipino nurses in the selected tertiary hospital. Thence, the study
quantified two different sets of variables: (1) EQ to color preference
and (2) EQ to clinical performance. The whole endeavor arrived at a
conclusion that EQ is not a favorable tool in determining the
competency of nurses in their workplace. Similarly, results reveal that
no strong evidence links the EQ to color preference. Hence, it is
conclusive that no single factor can be a determinant of the other.
Keywords:Emotional Quotient (EQ), Color Preference, Clinical
Performance
