Bu çalışmada, duygusal zeka ve işe bağlılık arasındaki ilişkide kariyer uyumluluğunun aracı rolünü, yol analizi yaklaşımıyla test etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu çalışma için korelasyonel bir tasarım seçilmiştir. Çalışmaya toplam 252 gönüllü öğretmen (YaşRanjı: 22-57, YaşOrt. 36.14, YaşSs 8.44) katılmıştır. Veri toplama araçları olarak Duygusal Zeka Ölçeği, Kariyer Uyumluluğu Ölçeği ve Utrecht İş Bağlılığı Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada ilkin ön analizler yapılmış; daha sonra bu çalışmada gözlemlenen değişkenler arasındaki ilişkilerin yönünü ve yordama düzeyleri ortaya çıkarılması amaçlandığı için veriler yol analizi yaklaşımı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Ayrıca, kariyer uyumluluğunun duygusal zeka ve işe bağlılık arasındaki ilişkide anlamlı bir aracı rol oynayıp oynamadığını incelemek için 1000 yeniden örneklemeli bir bootstrap analizi yapılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre kariyer uyumluluğu, duygusal zeka ve işe bağlılık arasındaki ilişkiye anlamlı bir şekilde aracılık etmektedir. Ek olarak duygusal zeka ve uyumluluğu, işe bağlılıktaki varyansın %74’ünü açıklamaktadır. Araştırma bulguları, mevcut literatür ışığında tartışılmış ve gelecekteki araştırmalar için bazı öneriler geliştirilmiştir.
