Sistematización de experiencias: La inteligencia emocional y su influencia en el desarrollo psicosocial en adolescentes de 14 a 15 años de la unidad educativa “San Jose María Escrivá” en el periodo de octubre 2023 a marzo 2024”

Abstract

The systematic documentation of experiences conducted between October 2023 and March 2024 at the "San Josemaría Escrivá" Educational Unit explored the connection between emotional intelligence and the psychosocial development of youth aged 14 to 15. It underscores the fundamental role of emotional intelligence in fostering positive outcomes, interpersonal interactions, resilience, and a healthy self-concept among students. Findings showed that students with higher emotional intelligence demonstrated greater self-awareness, self-regulation, and empathy, which are crucial for effectively navigating social relationships and academic pressures. Additionally, the research highlights the true likeness within the realm of emotional intelligence and academic utility. Students equipped with strong emotional skills are better equipped to manage stress, maintain focus, and seek assistance when needed, emphasizing the importance of incorporating emotional intelligence education into the school curriculum. Several viable steps are recommended to enhance the progress of emotional intelligence among students. These include integrating emotional intelligence modules into existing curricula, providing specialized training to educators on fostering emotional intelligence skills, establishing support services for students facing emotional challenges, encouraging parental involvement in promoting emotional well-being, continuously evaluating the effectiveness of emotional intelligence initiatives, and fostering a positive school culture that values emotional awareness and empathy.
