Resumen
OMAR, Alicia; SALESSI, Solana; URTEAGA, Florencia y VAAMONDE, Juan Diego. Cross-cultural validation of the Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2014, vol.10, n.2, pp.261-274. ISSN 1794-9998.
The aim of this study was to adapt the Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale with Latinamerican adolescents and youth adults. The conceptual, semantic, and operational equivalence of the prototype version was analyzed. The final version was administered to a sample of 1.890 students (730 Mexicans, 664 Argentineans, and 497 Brazilians). The analysis of factorial validity showed two orthogonal factors which explained 63.9% of the total variance. Convergent validity was demonstrated through the correlation analysis performed. The reliability of the adapted instrument reached satisfactory levels. In light of the results, we offer some suggestions for future research in the area.
