The interplay between frequent verbal self-talk, emotional intelligence, and creativity has been underexplored in the scientific literature. However, understanding the specific relationship between these constructs is crucial for comprehending human cognition and behavior across a variety of domains. This study aims to investigate the relationship between frequent verbal self-talk, emotional intelligence, and creativity. A quantitative survey methodology was employed to collect data from young adults aged between 18 and 35. The survey instrument assessed the frequency of verbal self-talk, emotional intelligence, and creativity using established scales. Correlational statistics and hierarchical regression analyses were conducted to examine the associations between these constructs. The findings reveal a significant positive association between frequent verbal self-talk and emotional intelligence, as well as between emotional intelligence and creativity. Furthermore, emotional intelligence was found to mediate the relationship between verbal self-talk and creativity. The study emphasizes the importance of emotional intelligence in facilitating the creative potential of verbal self-talk. Developing positive self-dialogue habits and promoting emotional intelligence can enhance creative thinking and problem-solving abilities.
