“…Similarly, emotional intelligence is related to important psychological benefits, since emotional control and management enables people to face different life changes successfully and reduces mental risks and imbalances [ 11 , 12 ]. As stated by Rieffe et al [ 13 ] and Villanueva and Górriz [ 14 ], emotional awareness not only involves attention-related processes, but also the identification and differentiation of emotions, the localisation and analysis of changes produced by one’s own and other people’s emotional experiences.…”

Background: The university years bring a great deal of vital changes. In addition, psycho-social factors play a key role in university students’ development and their consumption of harmful substances. The aim is to analyse academic performance according to psychosocial factors, self-concept, emotional intelligence and harmful substance consumption in a sample of future Physical Education teachers. Methods: The present study was carried out with a sample of 775 undergraduate students who were studying for the Primary Education Degree in Physical Education in Andalusia, Spain. The main instruments used include an ad hoc questionnaire, the Self-Concept Form-5 test, Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence and the Emotional Intelligence Inventory adapted to Sport. Results: The results show that young people who have a greater general self-concept and self-emotional management are those who access the university degree through Vocational Training. In relation to the average record mark, it was observed that participants with marks of notable and outstanding obtained higher scores in general self-concept, academic dimension and hetero-emotional management. Those with grades of passed and outstanding were those with higher levels in the physical dimension of self-concept and emotional use. In relation to receiving a scholarship to study, it has been shown that those university students who do perceive it have higher levels in most of the dimensions of emotional intelligence and self-concept. Conclusions: Finally, the harmful substances did not show significant relationships with academic factors, except between tobacco and the average mark of the file.

“…EI is understood as the ability to adequately perceive, understand, and develop emotions. This construct represents one of the most relevant elements during the period of secondary and higher (i.e., university) education [ 30 , 31 ]. Various studies [ 32 , 33 ] have proved that EI is crucial in emotional regulation and in the control of feelings in educational environments.…”

“…EI also facilitates psychological well-being, reduces negative emotions, and fosters the creation of healthy behaviors. Low levels of EI directly impact the creation of bad habits, such as inactive lifestyles, following a diet with low adherence (e.g., to the MD), or tobacco and alcohol consumption [ 30 , 31 ]. Therefore, certain motivational and emotional environments that help form healthy habits and reduce harmful conducts must be fostered [ 31 ].…”

A certain link exists between the consumption of particular groups of food and well-being. In this study, we analyzed in depth the relationship between strict adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MD) and emotional well-being through a descriptive, exploratory, transversal, and correlational study of students from the Campus of Melilla, University of Granada, Spain. The sample consisted of 272 individuals. Adherence to the MD was measured with the PREvención con DIetaMEDiterránea (PREDIMED) questionnaire, emotional well-being (both positive and negative affection) with the Spanish version of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), the state of perceived health with the Short Form-36 (SF36), and the degree of physical activity using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF). A strict adherence to the MD was found to be significantly related to positive emotional state (β = 0.018, p = 0.009). The perceived state of health (β = 0.192, p < 0.001), mental role (β = 0.346, p < 0.001), and physical activity (β = 0.155, p = 0.007) were found to be predictive factors of a positive emotional state. Conversely, the relationship between the adherence to the MD and a negative emotional state was not significant. Various components of the MD were found to be independently connected to well-being. The results suggest that adopting a nutritional pattern such as the MD is linked to an improvement in emotional well-being.

“…The practice of physical activity has been found to improve personal well-being and disease prevention (Ahn et al, 2016). Students who have a better understanding of their emotions demonstrate higher levels of physical activity (González-Valero et al, 2019). The literature highlights the relationship between physical activity and the different dimensions of EI.…”

The disease brought about by the SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19 coronavirus has had an unprecedented global impact. Confinement to control the outbreak may have mental health consequences for the most vulnerable in the population, including adolescents. This study aims to describe and analyze the relationships between the stress variables, Emotional Intelligence and the intention to use cannabis in healthy adolescents, before and after the end of the COVID-19 pandemic containment stage. A comparative correlational study was carried out with validated self-completed questionnaires through an online platform. The sample is made up of adolescents (n = 300) aged 13–17 from two different schools in Ponferrada (León, Spain). The analysis of correlation and differences between the groups indicate that confinement has had effects on the mental health of the adolescents, specifically on the emotional manifestations of stress. Furthermore, significant gender differences were found for stress values and Emotional Intelligence. However, no differences have been found for cannabis use intention.
