Abstract

The central objective of this research was to identify whether the students of the B.E.C.A. They used their socio-emotional skills to identify their influence on their academic performance. Knowing that emotions are present in the life of human beings, it is impossible to live without them since they are responsible for the internal balance of the person. The emotional strengths and weaknesses of the students were identified through questionnaires and interviews. This way, the action research tools were put into practice, as well as the qualitative instruments, aspects that are essential in the development of an investigation. Likewise, the postulates of psychologists, educators and doctors that provide the theoretical support for this work are explained. It is worth mentioning that these authors, as well as their contributions, were studied during the course of the master's degree. We consider that the objectives of this research were achieved, since the needs of young people could be identified, this way psychological support can be planned and provided. The results obtained during this research are announced, which are disturbing, since the students lack adequate emotional intelligence. It is very difficult for them to recognize and express their emotions not only at school but at home as well. This has a strong impact on their academic performance because by not having an emotional balance their overall state is affected.
