Abstract

Auditors are often associated with work stress. One of the stresses that auditors often experience in carrying out their work is role stress. Excessive stress faced by auditors while working and which is often not immediately anticipated properly, as well as working conditions that are less conducive can also affect the auditor's performance. An individual who has low psychological well-being (including decreased self-confidence, depression, anxiety, irritability, helplessness) and low physical wellbeing or health will not only have an impact on the individual himself, but also on the institution. This research uses a moderator variable, namely emotional quotient. An auditor needs to have a mechanism that is able to minimize and overcome the pressure that occurs in order to be able to maintain performance, namely by having emotional intelligence. The self-motivation of each individual will grow if it is affiliated with emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is expected in auditors in order to have high performance and get a good career in their career path. This research was conducted at BPK RI with 100 respondents, with a research period from March-April 2018. The data analysis technique used in this research was Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The results of this research are: 1) Emotional quotient is not proven to strengthen the influence of role stress on job performance; 2) Emotional quotient strengthens the influence of psychological well-being on job performance; 3) Emotional quotient is not proven to strengthen the influence of a healthy lifestyle on job performance.
