| Sumario: | The relationship between emotional intelligence (EI), anxiety, depression and stress has been analysed through the application of self-reported questionnaires. The objective of this work is to expand the research on the subject, in general population, applying a tool based in mixed theoretical model of Emotional Self-efficacy. A sample of 623 Spanish adults of both sexes participated in the study. The Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire - Short Form (TEIQue-SF), the Goldberg Anxiety and Depression Scale (GADS), and the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scales (DASS-21) were administered online. The results obtained support the existence of a negative relationship between trait EI and the variables analysed. Reporting data indicating an explained variance for the global trait EI of 29.7 to 32.9% for anxiety, 27.7 to 29.1 for depression and 37.2 to 47.3% for stress, confirming the greater importance of the factors of well-being and self-control in the total effect. The demographic factors of gender, and income have a significant but low or very low influence in the incremental validity of global TEI. These results are consistent with previous studies, based on other population samples and/or with skills-based tools, opening a path for news interventions in this matter. |
