ANDRES, Maria Laura et al. Emotion regulation and academic skills: Relationship in children aged 9 to 11. Suma Psicol. [online]. 2017, vol.24, n.2, pp.79-86. ISSN 0121-4381.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sumpsi.2017.07.001.

Academic skills are a specific component of academic success, and many factors influence their acquisition and consolidation. One of these factors is the ability to emotionally regu late distress tolerance, as defined by the ability to withstand negative emotional states in pursuit of a goal. This paper undertook to analyse the relationship between distress tole rance and reading comprehension and mathematical computations in 107 primary school children aged 9 to 11. The results showed that distress tolerance was a significant predictor of reading comprehension of expository texts and mathematical computations, albeit not so for reading comprehension of narrative texts. Distress tolerance is likely to be a relevant factor for academic success in several domains.
