The Emotional Quotient Questionnaire for Youth Version (EQ-i:YV) was tested and validated using a sample of 1655 Spanish students. A detailed psychometric analysis provided evidence in support of the reliability of the EQ-i:YV and the robustness of its proposed five-factor structure. Using different subsamples of participants, the associations between the EQ-i:YV and a series of relevant constructs (general intelligence, personality traits, self-concept, and academic performance) were examined, which also included data on another trait EI measure (TEIQue-ASF). Overall, the EQ-i:YV showed expected relationships to all other constructs. Finally, the standard score provided can help to interpret the emotional skills, competences and facilitators of Spanish children and adolescents.Keywords: Emotional intelligence, EQ-i:YV, standard scores, psychometric properties, validity and reliability. ResumenEl objetivo es validar el cuestionario de inteligencia emocional (EQ-i:YV, Emotional Quotient inventory: Young Version). En el estudio han participado 1655 estudiantes. Los análisis psicométricos aportan evidencias sobre la fiabilidad y validez de la estructura de cinco factores del cuestionario. Se han utilizado diferentes submuestras para estudiar la relación entre el EQ-i: YV y una serie de constructos relevantes (inteligencia general, rasgos de personalidad, autoconcepto y rendimiento académico); además se ha incluido otra medida de la inteligencia emocional (TEIQue-ASF, Trait Emocional Intelligence Questionaire-Adolescent Short Form). Los datos muestran que el EQ-i:YV mantiene las relaciones esperadas con el resto de constructos estudiados. Finalmente, se presentan los baremos del EQi:YV , que ayudan a interpretar las puntuaciones en niños y adolescentes españoles.Palabras clave: Inteligencia emocional, EQ-i:YV baremos, propiedades psicométricas (validez y fiabilidad).
