Resumen

La Inteligencia Emocional (IE) es un concepto que ha sido dis-cutido durante décadas en Psicología pero no ha recibido apoyo empírico hasta hace pocos años, a pesar de ello parece que en las últimas décadas es-te concepto está suscitando mucho interés entre las diversas áreas de la Psi-cología. Con este creciente interés, el concepto de percepción de la Inteli-gencia Emocional está recibiendo mayor atención. Debido a interés mos-trado en este concepto, este artículo tiene como objetivo explorar dos as-pectos importantes del mismo: la medida de la percepción de la IE y las implicaciones que la percepción de la IE puede tener en adolescentes con un trastorno de Ansiedad Social (TAS). Este estudio explora un cuestiona-rio muy utilizado para evaluar el PEI, llamado Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS). La versión española reducida de dicho cuestionario (TMMS-24) y una serie de cuestionarios muy utilizados para evaluar el TAS fueron admi-nistrados a 425 adolescentes españoles. Los resultados del estudio corrobo-raron que el TMMS-24 posee buenas propiedades psicométricas en adoles-centes y que el componente de regulación emocional parece que está invo-lucrado en la ansiedad social.
