The purpose of this study is to analyze trends in emotional intelligence research conducted in Korea. For this purpose, we collected papers using major online sites and in-tegrated papers by excluding duplicate papers. The integrated data went through a pre-processing process based on data cleaning, and keywords were extracted. The frequency of appearance of papers for each keyword was checked, and the degree centrality, betwe-enness centrality, closeness centrality, and eigenvector centrality of the keyword network were examined. As a result of the study, ‘control’, ‘infants’, ‘education’, and ‘ability’ were keywords that frequently appeared in emotional intelligence studies. In addition, ‘control’, ‘education’, and ‘ability’ were found to be the main keywords from the early to the late pe-riod, but there was some difference in the centrality ranking. ‘Positive’ appeared as a key-word with a notable change in centrality ranking. In this study, we identify keywords that frequently appear in emotional intelligence research through keyword network analysis and identify changes in core keywords depending on the research period. This study will serve as helpful data for conducting follow-up research on emotional intelligence.
