| Summary: | The interest of this work focuses on the great importance of emotional intelligence has gained in recent years and as, according to Goleman (1996), the union of reason and emotion is fundamental to understanding the development of human intelligence. In addition, several studies show the importance of developing emotional competence in the educational context, and particularly in university students. Through the use of a quantitative method, and more particularly of a cross-sectional design, the objective our study was to evaluate the level of emotional intelligence (attention, clarity and emotional repair) in a sample of 358 students of the Grade of Elementary Master and Science Grades of the University of Extremadura using the test of self-TMMS 24 Fernández-Berrocal, Extremera and Ramos (2004). The results confirm that there were significant differences in emotional reparation level by sex, and in every one of the dimensions that make up emotional intelligence by the extent to which they are enrolled college students. |
