- Abstract
The aim of the study was to examine the long-term effects of the prevention program "Emotion Training with students". Immediately and after a period of six months after the end of the training, students were expected to report an increase in emotion awareness, empathy, and emotion regulation strategies, as well as a decrease in self-reported depressive symptomatology. Data were collected from 149 adolescents (age: 10 – 13 years, m = 11.69, SD = 0.73, 51.7 % female) at three different measuring times (pre, post and six-month follow-up) which were analyzed with ANOVA for repeated measurements. The results showed an increase in emotional awareness between pre- and posttest which remain stable six months after. Students did not report any change in depressive symptoms immediately after training's completion, however symptoms were reported to decrease significantly six months after. Empathy and emotion regulation strategies only improved between pre- and posttest. The results indicate that the Emotion Training with Students solely has long term positive effects on emotion awareness. Improvements in depressive symptomatology show up in the long term.
