This research was implemented with aim to determine the effectiveness of philosophy for children program with research community style in emotional intelligence of high school children. For this purpose, one of the high schools from area 2 of education organization in Tehran, was selected. Current research method was the Quasi- Experimental version of pre-test–post-test with control group. After substitution of students in test and control groups, Bar-On’s emotional intelligence questionnaire was completed to survey the effectiveness of program in pre- and post-tests. Control group was kept away from the administration process during research community and for the test group, 1.5 hour weekly sessions were held in 16 weeks. The group was held in research community style and Story of Harry Stottlemeier’s Discovery was used as the dialog stimulus. Data were analyzed using one variable covariance. Data processing revealed that all amounts of 5 emotional intelligence components (after adjustments of pre-test effect), were increased significantly, after independent variable administration. Based on this finding and with respect to the point that students being in a research community could result in directing them to scrutiny and effort for self-assessment and self- evaluation in thinking and emotional skills, we suggest the education of philosophy in children in schools.
