Medicine is a profession in which emotional and moral intelligence play an effective role in improving the quality of medical care for patients, mental health, and increasing job satisfaction. The aim of the present study was to investigate emotional and moral intelligence among different physicians. This study was conducted as a descriptive study. The statistical population consisted of all physicians in Mashhad in 2019. Among them, 213 physicians were selected by convenience sampling method and completed questionnaires. The data collection tools were the Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i) and the Moral Intelligent Questionnaire. Data were analyzed by Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and independent t-test. The results showed that among physicians, female physicians, married, over 60 years old, and with a work experience of 30 years and more had more emotional intelligence.
