The goal of this research is to analyze the predictive capacity of emotional intelligence on perceived social support. 380 Psychology students completed the Trait Meta Mood Scale (TMMS-24, Salovey, Mayer, Goldman, Turvey, & Palfai, 1995) and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS, Zimet, Dahlem, Zimet, & Farley, 1988). Hierarchical regression analyses show that emotional intelligence is a significant predictor of the three dimensions of perceived social support. The importance of a correctly development of the components of emotional intelligence in university students is highlighted in order to increase their perception of social support, which would have an impact on an increase in physical and psychological well-being.

Introduction: high levels of stress can cause burnout with negative effects for the person, being more pronounced and frequent in work environments such as teachers. Emotional intelligence and humor style are related to its appearance, duration and intensity. Objective: to analyze this syndrome in teachers, as well as the degree of prediction that emotional intelligence and humor styles have on it. Method: Cross-sectional predictive design. The sample consists of 196 teachers. Results: a relationship was found between aspects of emotional intelligence and humor styles with burnout. The regression analysis showed that emotional regulation partly predict professional burnout and that the evaluation of one’s own emotions and affiliative mood explain part of the student-related burnout. Discussion: Emotional intelligence, especially that related to the use and regulation of emotions, and a...
