Marc A. Brackett is the Director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, a Senior Research Scientist in Psychology, and a Faculty Fellow in the Edward Zigler Center in Child Development and Social Policy at Yale University.

Biography

Brackett earned his Ph.D. in psychology from the University of New Hampshire in 2003, where he was supervised by emotional intelligence scholar John D. Mayer.[1] He was a postdoctoral fellow at Yale University with Mayer's collaborator, Peter Salovey.

Academic career

Brackett's research focuses on the role of emotional intelligence in learning, decision making, relationship quality, and mental health; the measurement of emotional intelligence, best practices for bringing emotional intelligence into large organizations, and the influences of emotional intelligence training on student and educator effectiveness, bullying prevention, and school climate.[2]

He is the author, co-author, and editor of over 100 scholarly publications and the developer of two university courses on Emotional Intelligence—one for undergraduates at Yale University and one for educators at Teachers College, Columbia University (co-developed with Robin Stern).


RULER

Brackett is the co-creator of RULER, an evidence-based, CASEL (Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning) SELect Program. The acronym RULER refers to the five key emotion skills of Recognizing, Understanding, Labeling, Expressing, and Regulating emotions. RULER intends to increase personal wellbeing, effective teaching and leadership, academic achievement, and classroom emotional climate change.[3][4] An essential aspect of RULER is that it involves training for educational leaders, teachers, support staff, students and families. To date, the program has reached over 500,000 students and hundreds of schools have used the program.[2]

Recognition

Much of this research is being extended to different cultures, including England, Spain, Italy, Australia, and China.[5] In 2011, his work on Social emotional learning (SEL) earned him the Joseph E. Zins Award. He received the 2004/2007 award for Excellence in Research, MENSA Education and Research Foundation.

He serves on numerous Research Advisory Boards, including the Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning (CASEL), Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation, and the Greater Good Science Center.[5]

Currently, he is a consultant to Facebook on a large-scale research project designed to both prevent and decrease online bullying. [citation needed]
