摘要：VIOLENCE IN ADOLESCENTS AND EMOTIONAL REGULATIONAggression towards peers is a problem with an important presence in the secondary classrooms in most of the countries of the world, and that interferes notably in the process of teaching / learning and in the development of those involved, with consequences always negative for their wellbeing, psychological health and social relations. In the last decades, there has been a significant increase in the importance given to the management of emotion, in what has come to be called the affection revolution, a line of research that comes to emphasize that the presence of behavioral and psychopathological alterations is not so much related to excessive negative or positive emotion, but rather to the poor ability to regulate that emotion in a way that is healthy and facilitates adjustment to demands. In relation to aggression and victimization in children and adolescents, there are hardly any studies that analyze the role of emotional regulation in explaining these problems. In the present research we analyze the emotional regulation in adolescents involved in acts of school violence, both as aggressors and victims, taking as a model the theoretical approach that has the greatest theoretical and empirical solidity in relation to the regulation of emotions and, in particular, to the emotional intelligence, proposed by Mayer and Salovey in 1997. According to this model, emotional intelligence is the set of four abilities that we examine in the present work: 1) emotional perception: ability to perceive own and others’ emotions; 2) emotional assimilation: ability to generate, use and feel emotions to communicate feelings; 3) emotional understanding: ability to understand information of an emotional nature; and 4) emotional regulation: ability to be open to feelings, monitor and alter them in order to facilitate personal growth.
