Abstract This study assesses the effect of an intervention adapted from the Full Emotional Intelligence Program (PINEP, for its initials in Spanish) in adults who have suffered the loss of a loved one. The intervention lasted twelve sessions, two and a half hours per week. The sample consisted of 17 adults ranging in age from 26 to 71 years (M= 50.59; SD = 14.44). Participants who completed the intervention showed an increased tolerance to distress by developing mindfulness skills, and a decrease in state anxiety, trait anxiety, and depression. Therefore, PINEP, as an emotional management program promotes acceptance as a psychological strategy, in the face of emotional vulnerability and psychological suffering.

Mindfulness to regulate emotions: The Mindfulness and Emotional Intelligence Program (PINEP) and its adaptation to a virtual learning platform.

The present study examines the effect of the Mindfulness and Emotional Intelligence Program (PINEP), adapted to the virtual learning platform Moodle where participants receive Mindfulness training in 12 sessions lasting an hour and a half. The sample consists of 89 people, assigned randomly to a control group on the waiting list and to an experimental group that undertakes the training. The results indicate that the participants who completed PINEP showed improvement in the variables of health, empathy and mindfulness, in comparison with the participants of the group on the waiting list.
