- Abstract
This research paper shows a descriptive correlational study is to identify the role of the social and emotional competences as a protective factor against anxious and depressive symptomatology in adolescents. Participants were 840 Mexican adolescents that completed the Emotional Quotient Inventory, Youth Version: EQ-I:YV by Bar-On, the Revised Children's Manifest Anxiety Scale, RCMAS by Reynolds and Richmond, and the Children's Depression Inventory, CDI by Kovacs. We found a negative relationship between variables. In the same way, it was observed that social and emotional competences had a predictive value of 14% on the anxious symptomatology and 39% on the depressive symptomatology. The results support the importance of developing programs emphasizing socio-emotional skills training to prevent early onset of affective disorders.
