AB Emotional intelligence skills in students may be related with physical and mental health,within and outside the academic field. Strengthening these skills can lead to greater overall well-being,lower use of substances, and improved academic performance, aswell as reduced aggressive behaviours.The objective of this study was to analyse the levels of emotional intelligence (differentiating betweenthe dimensions: emotional Attention, Clarity, and Repair) among high school students and examineits relationship with academic performance and emotional well-being, considering if there aredifferences between boys and girls and between different grades. A cross-sectional descriptive studywas developed on a sample of 333 High School students using the Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS)and KIDSCREEN-10 Index tools. Differences in emotional intelligence were observed betweenboys and girls for the three dimensions, and a relationship between emotional intelligence andstudent well-being was appreciated. No relationships were found between emotional intelligenceand academic performance, nor have any differences been observed between the different coursesanalysed. It cannot be concluded that academic performance is related to emotional intelligence,but a relationship between well-being and emotional intelligence is found.
