TISOCCO, Franco; BRUNO, Flavia Eugenia y STOVER, Juliana Beatriz. Emotional intelligence, psychological symptomatology and academic achievement of Buenos Aires Psychology students. Acad. (Asunción) [online]. 2019, vol.6, n.2, pp.111-123. ISSN 2414-8938. https://doi.org/10.30545/academo.2019.jul-dic.2.
The objective of the study was to analyze Emotional Intelligence (EI), Academic Achievement (AA), and Psychological Symptomatology (PS) within university-level students in Buenos Aires. The sample was comprised of 299 students (81.6% Female, 18.4% Male; Mage=25.32, SDage=7.05). Data collection was carried out with a socio-demographic and academic survey, the Emotional-Quotient Inventory, and the Symptom-Checklist-90-R. Results did not exhibit statistically significant differences with regards to gender in EI, but analysis did reveal said differences regarding several PS subscales (p<.01; p<.05). Some EI dimensions exhibited low correlations with AA variables. Additionally, low correlations were observed between PS subscales and said AA variables. Results are discussed in light of current international and local reports. In conclusion, more locally devised research is needed to further enlighten the relationship between AA and both EI and SP. Moreover, a revision of local operationalization criteria regarding AA turns imperative.
