Abstract
While trying to interpret the intricate mechanism working behind an individuals willingness to help others, we often lose our way right into the heart of myriads of psychological concepts of significance like disposition, emotion, intelligence and many such. It is observed that the internal motivation to engage in a helping behavior does not occur in an isolated way, rather it occurs as an important conjunction of certain significant factors. In this connection there happens to be the semblance of emotional intelligence and pro-social behavior in academic and later professional success which has been found unaccounted in literature, and hence usage of the variables to find out the
connecting patterns has encouraged the doctoral scholars to investigate the predictors, including personality traits of postgraduate students and research scholars of premier institutions of national importance spearheading technical education in Eastern India.
