Objective: to analyze the effects of a Mindfulness-based intervention on nurse leaders' emotional intelligence and resilience. Method: a pilot study of a randomized crossover clinical trial. The sample (n=32) was randomized into Group A (n=18) and Group B (n=14) and evaluated at the pre-test, post-test and follow-up moments. The outcomes were assessed using the Emotional Intelligence Measure, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Questionnaire and the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire, and analyzed using Generalized Linear Mixed Models. Results: a total of 32 nurses with a mean age of 42.6 years old were evaluated. The analyses showed significant interactions between the effects of the group x moment factors on the Self-motivation (p=0.005), Sociability (p<0.001), Self-control (p=0.013), and Total (p=0.002) emotional intelligence skill scores; as well as on the Observe (p=0.042), Describe (p=0.008), Non-judgment (p<0.001), Act with awareness (p=0.004) and Total (p<0.001) mindfulness facets. Post-test: there was a statistically significant increase in the Sociability (p=0.009) and Self-control (p=0.015) emotional intelligence skills; as well as in the Non-judgment (p=0.022) and Total (p=0.002) mindfulness facets. Follow-up: a significant increase was observed in the Non-judgment (p=0.024) and Total (p=0.026) mindfulness facets. The "resilience" variable did not present statistical significance in the "group x moment" factor, both in the post-test and during follow-up. Conclusion: the Mindfulness-based intervention used proved to be effective in increasing nurse leaders' emotional intelligence and dispositional mindfulness skills.

Relaciones entre atención, claridad y reparación emocional con respuestas rumiativas en universitarios de Lima

El factor de atención emocional ha sido reportado con frecuencia negativamente asociado con indicadores de salud mental; al contrario de los resultados obtenidos con los factores de claridad y de reparación emocional. Los objetivos del estudio fueron examinar las relaciones entre atención, claridad y reparación emocional con los factores de respuestas rumiativas y determinar si la relación entre la atención emocional y rumiación varía de acuerdo con los niveles de atención, claridad y reparación emocional en estudiantes universitarios de Lima, Perú. Para ello, primero se realizó un estudio de la estructura factorial y la confiabilidad de la TMMS-24 y de la Escala de Respuestas Rumiativas, en 320 estudiantes de una universidad pública de Lima, Perú. Segundo, se llevó a cabo un estudio correlacional mediante la aplicación de ambos instrumentos a 529 estudiantes de la misma universidad. En la muestra total se obtuvo que ambos factores de rumiación correlacionaron positivamente con atención emocional, pero solo reproche correlacionó con claridad y con reparación, siendo tal correlación negativa. Para determinar si la relación positiva entre atención y rumiación varía con los niveles de atención, claridad y reparación, se compararon las correlaciones entre atención y rumiación correspondientes a los grupos de baja, media y alta atención, claridad y reparación. Estas comparaciones mostraron que la relación entre atención y los factores de rumiación variaban solo en función del nivel de reparación. Los resultados indican diferencias importantes en la manera en que se relaciona cada factor de rumiación con la atención emocional, por un lado, y con la claridad y la reparación emocional, por el otro.

The emotional attention factor has been often reported as negatively associated with mental health indicators, contrary to the results attained with the emotional clarity and repair factors. The objectives of this study were to examine relationships between emotional attention, clarity and repair and factors of ruminative responses and to determine whether the relation between emotional attention and rumination could vary according to the levels of emotional attention, clarity and repair in university students from Lima, Peru. For this, in first place, a study was carried out to determine the factor structure and the internal consistency of the TMMS-24 and the Ruminative Responses Scale in 320 undergraduates of a public university in Lima, Peru. After this psychometric study, it was carried out a correlation study in 529 undergraduates from the same university. In the whole sample, both rumination factors positively correlated with emotional attention, but only brooding correlated with clarity and repair, negatively. In order to determine whether the positive relation between attention and rumination varies with the levels of attention, clarity and repair, the attention-rumination correlations were compared between groups of low, medium and high attention, clarity and repair. These comparisons shown that the relationship between attention and rumination factors varied only as a function of the level of repair. These results indicate important differences in the way that each rumination factor is related with emotional attention, on the one hand, and with emotional clarity and repair, on the other.

Objectives: Trait emotional intelligence (TEI) is a key personality construct by which an individual recognizes, understands, expresses and regulates emotions in self and others to adapt to environments or achieve one’s goals. TEI skills are modifiable and have a potential to significantly influence psychological health (PH) of a person. The aims of current work were to evaluate relationship between TEI and PH of medical students and to explore the incremental validity of TEI to predict psychological distress beyond sociodemographic and educational factors in them. Materials and Methods: One hundred and thirty-two medical students (mean age 18.02 years) participated in this cross-sectional study. TEI and PH were assessed using TEI questionnaire short form (TEIQue-sf) and depression, anxiety and stress scale (DASS-21), respectively. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was carried out to determine if scores on TEIQue-sf added significantly to the prediction of psychological symptoms in medical students. Results: There was a significant negative association (r = ?0.57, P < 0.001) between TEIQue-sf and DASS-21 scores. Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that after controlling for sociodemographic and educational variables, TEIQue-sf scores explained a statistically significant increment of variance (P < 0.001) in DASS-21 scores. TEI emerged as best predictor of psychological distress of medical students followed by educational factors. However, sociodemographic profile as an attribute failed to demonstrate significant capacity to predict PH of our participants. Conclusion: Our results indicate that TEI is a robust and unique predictor of better PH and plays a positive role in promoting psychological well-being

IMPACT OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE ON ACADEMIC STRESS: A QUALITATIVE STUDY

Modern technology has become an integral part of the daily lives of the new generation in the fast- changing 21st century. As a result of instant access to digital information and communication technologies via mobile phones and the internet, this generation is called the 'Digital Generation'. Without understanding real love and association with family and friends, they con?ne themselves to the digital world. People with high emotional intelligence (EI) feel a sense of association and belongingness. A person's emotional intelligence is their ability to comprehend and cope with dif?cult and complex situations in life. By overcoming stress, EI can enhance productivity. An analysis of the relationship between Emotional Intelligence and Academic Stress is presented in this paper

Effect of spirituality, exercise, music, and engagement with nature on intelligence, stress, and cognition

Background: Spirituality is recognition of a sense that there is something greater than myself. Physical exercise is any bodily activity that enhances physical fitness and overall health. Music is a universal language to express mind through tone and emotions. Nature is the physical world or the universe. Intelligence is the global capacity of the individual to act purposefully, to think rationally. Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand one’s own emotions and emotions of others. Adversity quotient deals with ability of a person to deal with adversities in life. Aims and Objectives: The present study was designed to study the effect of different interventions on intelligence, stress and cognitive functions. Materials and Methods: The present study was performed on 144 subjects in age group of 30–39 years. Their basal level of intelligence quotient (IQ), emotional quotient (EQ), resilience score (RS), acute stress score (ASS), perceived stress score (PSS), isometric handgrip (IHG), and stroop tests was recorded. The subjects were divided into four groups of 36 each. Four groups were allotted different interventions of spirituality practices, moderate intensity physical exercise, receptive music, and engagement with nature respectively for 1 month duration. Statistical analysis: ANOVA and post hoc tests along with student t-test were used for computing the results. Results: IQ, EQ, RS, ASS, IHG, PSS, and stroop subtests yielded mixed results with four interventions at different levels of significance. Conclusion: Although every intervention had different and positive impact on parameters, overall spiritual practices exhibited better response on parameters.

Influencia de la inteligencia emocional percibida, la ansiedad y el estrés sobre la presencia de síntomas depresivos en estudiantes de medicina chilenos/as

Introducción: La inteligencia emocional facilita la gestión de emociones displacenteras, no obstante, su rol respecto de síntomas depresivos en estudiantes de medicina está aún en estudio y no está claro el peso que la inteligencia emocional tiene sobre este tipo de sintomatología. Objetivo: Analizar la relación entre los factores de la inteligencia emocional percibida y la sintomatología depresiva, ansiosa y estrés, en estudiantes de primer y sexto año de medicina. Método: con un diseño transversal expostfacto y un análisis Rlog hacia atrás, se observó la asociación entre la inteligencia emocional con la depresión en los estudiantes. Resultados: el único factor de la inteligencia emocional que explicó la presencia de síntomas depresivos fue la regulación emocional (Exp B= ,258: IC= 95%; ,128-,519; p=,000). También se identificó que la ansiedad y el estrés explicaron una proporción importante de la varianza de los síntomas depresivos (R2 Nagelkerke=,426) y que la presencia de cada uno de ellos aumentaba la probabilidad de presentar esta sintomatología. Conclusiones: Los datos muestran la importancia de la regulación emocional, la ansiedad y el estrés como predictores en la intensidad de la sintomatología depresiva en estudiantes de medicina, así como la diferenciación por sexo en la presencia de síntomas depresivos.

Cross-Cultural Adaptation and Validation of the Emotional Intelligence Self-Perception Questionnaire / Adaptação e Validação Transcultural do Questionário de Autoperceção de Inteligência Emocional / Adaptación y Validación Transcultural del Cuestionario de Autopercepción de Inteligencia Emocional

Abstract The assessment of emotional intelligence is limited by the lack of psychometrically valid instruments. The present study aimed at cross-culturally adapting and validating the Emotional Intelligence Self-perception Questionnaire (EIQ-SP) in samples of Brazilian and Portuguese university students. Within this scope, in a sample of 1,074 students, reliability, construct-related validity, and criterion-related validity were analyzed. Additionally, metric invariance between the two samples and between genders was assessed. EIQ-SP showed appropriate psychometric qualities in its validation for use in Brazil, maintaining Mayer and Salovey's four-branch model. With a short application time, simple and objective language, its small number of questions makes it an attractive and valuable instrument to investigate Emotional Intelligence.

Resumo A avaliação da inteligência emocional apresenta-se limitada pela falta de instrumentos psicometricamente válidos. O presente estudo teve como objetivo adaptar e validar transculturalmente o Questionário de Autoperceção de Inteligência Emocional (QIE-AP) em amostras de estudantes universitários brasileiros e portugueses. Neste âmbito, em uma amostra de 1074 estudantes, foram analisadas a fiabilidade, a validade relacionada com o constructo e a validade relacionada com o critério. Adicionalmente, foi avaliada a invariância métrica entre as duas amostras e entre gêneros. O QIE-AP demonstrou qualidades psicométricas adequadas em sua validação para uso no Brasil, mantendo o modelo tetrafatorial de Mayer e Salovey. Com tempo de aplicação curto, linguagem simples e objetiva, seu número reduzido de questões o torna um instrumento atrativo e valioso na investigação da Inteligência Emocional.
