Item INTELIGENCIA EMOCIONAL Y ADAPTACIÓN SOCIAL EN ADOLESCENTES(2025-03-05) Jácome Carvajal, Joselyn Paola; Rodríguez Pérez, Mayra Lucía; Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Psicología ClínicaAdolescence is a stage of multiple biopsychosocial challenges. Emotional intelligence is considered as the ability to recognize and understand one's own emotions and those of others. Likewise, social adaptation implies the ability to form positive relationships, comply with social norms and expectations. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between emotional intelligence and social adaptation in adolescents aged 12 to 18 years. A quantitative approach with a non-experimental design and correlational scope was used. The Bar-On Emotional Intelligence Inventory: youth version was used to assess emotional intelligence, and the Self-Applied Social Adaptation Scale (SASS) was used to assess social adaptation. The results indicated that in both variables the adequate level predominated: 64.4% in emotional intelligence and 88.1% in social adaptation, there is no statistically significant difference between the mean of males M=78.1 and females M=79.1 (U=1135, p>0.05) and there is no significant correlation between the two variables in this group of adolescents (Rho=0.127, p>0.05). This suggests that the levels of emotional intelligence remain independent in the face of social adaptation, which implies that they are not directly related in this study.
