| 總結: | Emotional intelligence (IE) and depression demonstrate a close relationship, where those diagnosed with depression pay an inordinate amount of attention to their thoughts, are unclear about their emotions and do not know how to regulate them properly (Mestre, & Fernández-Berrocal, 2009). Depression can be considered as a lack of mood regulation disorder. Thus, the main objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a psychological intervention aimed at building emotional regulation abilities and explore its effect on depressive symptomatology. A technical orientation integration workshop was used, which included Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy techniques, congruent with the objectives and strategies of the Salovey and Mayer four branches model (Sosa- Correa et al, 2015). The sample included 12 university students, ages ranging from 19 to 34 (M = 22.5 and SD = 4.54), who had previously reported depression symptoms. To measure the effects of the workshop, two instruments were used, the Self-Informed Emotional Intelligence Scale (EAIE, Sosa-Correa, 2008) and the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II, Beck; Steer, & Brown, 2009) and sessions were evaluated. Results show that the workshop had a significant positive effect, increasing 8 of the 11 subscales of the IE test, and there was a decrease in depressive symptoms in 6 participants. |
