This article presents the results of an exploratory study on the relationships between the emotional competencies and attitudes towards creativity in a sample of primary school students. This study is part of a wider project on the implementation of the curricular area “Emotional Education and Creativity,” a far-reaching innovation in the educational system of the Canary Islands, Spain. A validated questionnaire for the evaluation of emotional and creative variables from the teachers’ perspectives was used. The questionnaire was given to 230 primary school teachers, who used it to assess the emotional and creative competencies of 2540 schoolchildren. A bivariate correlation was carried out to establish the relationship between these competencies, and a multiple regression analysis was used to understand the influence of emotional skills on creativity. The results obtained confirmed the close relationship between the emotional dimension and the creative construct. Specifically, it was observed that emotional awareness was the competence with the closest relationship, together with the responsibility for one’s own emotions, and the one that had the greatest weight in explaining creative competences. This result emphasizes that emotional and creative competencies complement each other and highlights the importance of working on these competencies together. We are committed to continuing with this line of research that supports an emotional conception of creativity.

ARTÍCULO resu.anuies.mx Revista de la Educación Superior 47 (186) (2018) Resumen El entrenamiento sistematizado de las habilidades comunicativas es un procedimiento eficaz para adquirirlas. Este trabajo trata de comprobar la mejora en la percepción de estas habilidades en estudiantes universitarios de carreras de apoyo, tras realizar un programa de entrenamiento. Participaron 274 estudiantes universitarios. Se utilizó un diseño Splitplot. Los resultados indican que los estudiantes entrenados mejoran en sus habilidades comunicativas frente a los no entrenados. Se concluye que este programa es un buen instrumento para mejorar las habilidades de comunicación en los estudiantes universitarios, lo cual va en la línea de diferentes estudios sobre la bondad de estos programas.

AbstractThe systematic training is the most efficient process to acquire appropriate communication skills. This paper aims to test the effectiveness of a training program in communication skills applied to university students. 274 students participated. The study used a Split-plot design. The results indicate that trained students perceive themselves with more communication skills. This communication skills training is a good tool to improve, in a shortterm, these skills in university students. These results are in line with several studies on the effectiveness of systematic training programs in communication skills.
La competencia emocional y creativa es fundamental para la vida y se adquiere en contacto con agentes de socialización. Nuestra propuesta es que debe apresarse mediante el modelo de evaluación de 360 grados. Este trabajo se aborda desde este modelo y analiza las propiedades psicométricas de un instrumento dirigido a docentes para valorar las competencias emocionales y creativas del alumnado. Participaron 230 enseñantes de Educación Primaria, que valoraron a 2,540 escolares de centros públicos de Canarias. Se ha comprobado su validez factorial, replicándose la estructura del instrumento en la muestra y en las submuestras analizadas, manifestando a su vez una alta consistencia interna. Se ofrece un instrumento que apresa de forma sencilla, fiable y válida la observación de las competencias emocionales y creativas de los escolares desde el punto de vista de sus docentes, adaptado a la realidad escolar.
