Teachers’ emotionally intelligent behaviors and students’ academic engagement
Student academic engagement is a key indicator of academic adjustment and motivation. Based on the Prosocial Classroom Model, teachers might play a crucial role in sustaining students’ engagement, not only through instructional practices but also through their emotional competencies. The present study examined how teachers’ emotionally intelligent behaviors (TEIB), as perceived by students, relate to students’ academic engagement, and whether thi…

The Social Perception of Teachers’ Emotional Intelligence and Problematic Internet Use among Spanish Adolescents
Objective: Problematic internet use (PIU) has become a significant concern among adolescents. Considering the classroom as a key social environment during adolescence, the way students perceive their teachers' emotionally intelligent behaviors may be particularly relevant for their academic and personal adjustment. While previous studies had examined individual predictors of PIU, the role of teachers' emotionally intelligent behaviors (TEIB) in m…
Financial Strain and Flourishing
Unemployment is known as a stressful period with adverse effects on individuals' well‐being and health, especially under economic pressure. Emotion regulation, a key component of emotional intelligence, was tested as a potential personal resource with implications in these links. This multisample study examined both the mediating and moderating roles of regulation of emotion (ROE) in the relationship between financial strain and flourishing. Two …
Examining the distinct usefulness of amor fati over resilient coping and grit in accounting for psychological adjustment in Spanish adults (¿importa el amor fati?)
All Resources Lead to Rome
This multi-study investigation examined what magnitude of personal resources people need to flourish in their personal life and at work. We specifically looked at the interplay between emotional intelligence (EI) and core self-evaluations (CSE) in relation to flourishing, happiness, and work engagement. Guided by job demands-resources theory, this investigation was conducted through two separate studies ( N s1 = 391; N s2 = 703) using path analys…
Negative Affectivity and Suicide Risk
The role of optimism and gratitude in the link between negative affectivity and suicide risk (viz., depressive symptoms and suicidal ideation) was examined in a sample of 1401 Spanish adolescents. Overall, the results of a set of hierarchical regression analyses supported the prediction of optimism and gratitude as predictors of suicide risk. Moreover, we analyzed whether the negative affectivity optimism/gratitude interaction term explains the u…

Beyond positive psychological processes
Daily exhaustion and engagement in Portuguese health science students
In this study, a quantitative diary design was used to examine within-person relationships among daily negative events, emotional intelligence facets, and levels of academic exhaustion and engagement. The research was conducted with a sample of 63 Portuguese health science students (48 females and Mage = 22.3 years) from medicine (n = 33) and psychology (n = 30) degrees who completed a daily survey for 2 weeks (550 diary entries). The results sho…
Knowing is half the battle
College students, particularly those in healthcare fields, face an elevated risk of suicidal ideation and depression. Therefore, it is essential to explore how both actual and perceived emotional resources may play a role in suicide prevention within this age group. This study examined (1) whether actual self-focused emotion-regulation ability diminishes suicidal ideation through a decrease in depressive symptoms, and (2) whether perceived self-e…
Examining optimism and flourishing as protective factors of suicidality across the adult lifespan
We examined optimism and flourishing as unique protective predictors of suicidality ( viz. , suicidal ideation and suicidal behaviors) in a cross-sectional study of young adults (18-35 years), middle-aged adults (36-55 years), and older adults (≥56 years). Young adults were found to have higher levels of suicidal ideation and suicidal behaviors compared to middle-aged and older adults. Controlling for depressive symptoms, the results of conductin…
Inteligencia emocional, afrontamiento resiliente y compromiso ocupacional del profesorado novel
Emotional intelligence (EI) and resilient coping (RC) have shown positive links with occupational commitment (OC). Considering the lack of research in this area, the present study examines the role of RC as a mediator and moderator in the relationship between EI and OC in a sample of 338 pre-service teachers (58.9% female; Mage= 26.85, SD= 5.66). Results showed that RC mediated (B= .20; CI= .02, .37), but did not moderate this relationship (B= -.…
Emotional Intelligence and Teachers’ Work Engagement
A growing number of studies have tested the relationship between personal resources (e.g. emotional intelligence) and indicators of occupational well-being, including work engagement. However, few have examined health-related factors moderating or mediating the pathway from emotional intelligence to work engagement. A better knowledge of this area would contribute substantially to the design of effective intervention strategies. The present study…
Understanding the role of emotion regulation strategies in cybervictimization and cyberaggression over time
Adolescents involved in experiences of cybervictimization and cyberbullying are at increased risk of psychological maladjustment and ill-being. However, not all adolescents involved in cyberbullying roles experience similar consequences and cognitive emotion regulation (CER) might be a key factor. Despite growing interest in the role CER strategies play in cyberbullying behaviours, little is known about the predictive utility of these strategies …
Depressive symptomatology is associated with problematic smartphone use severity in adolescents
Problematic smartphone use (PSU) has been widely studied, and recent research has examined the affective and cognitive process risk factors that underlie its development and maintenance. Based on the Interaction of Person–Affect–Cognition–Execution model for problematic internet use, the present study analyzed the mediating role of cognitive emotion regulation strategies in the link between depressive symptomatology and PSU severity in adolescent…
Suicide risk assessment and depressive symptoms among Spanish adolescent bully-victims
The aim of this study is to explore a model examining how emotional intelligence (EI), sex, depressive symptoms and suicidal thoughts and behaviours (STB) may interact. The sample included 380 Spanish adolescent bully-victims (61.6% boys; mean age = 14.38 years). The results indicated that EI is a significant negative predictor of decreased STB and that this relation is fully mediated by depressive symptoms. This effect was moderated by sex, such…

No obstante, hasta la fecha no se han llevado a cabo estudios integradores que …
The chain-mediating role of perceived stress and problematic smartphone use in the link between critical thinking and academic engagement among Spanish adolescents
Because problematic smartphone use (PSU) is rising among adolescents, it is vital to analyze the potential causes and psychosocial consequences affecting this target population. Current theoretical frameworks suggest that specific personal core characteristics might predispose individuals to experience increases in this problematic behavior over time. Additionally, PSU has been conceptualized as a maladaptive coping mechanism to manage negative e…
A 4-month prospective study of the relationship between emotional intelligence and suicide ideation in Spanish adolescents

Adolescence is a vulnerable developmental stage for deficits in emotion regulation, and these are linked to excessive smartphone use. The present study is the first to examine the links between the use of specific cognitive emoti…
