OBJECTIVE: To relate the perceived index of the environmental quality to environmental stress in students of the UNMSM - Peru. DESIGN: Descriptive corelational with an intentional sample of 200 subjects. MATERIAL And METHODS: The semantic differential was used to measure both variables. 5 aspects of the atmosphere were moderate selected by the sample: the green sweepings, areas, the smog, the transit, the security, being the considered SMOG most serious. RESULTS: Was an equal index PEQI to 3.82, slightly satisfactory. The level of measured environmental stress was of an average of 3.45, little satisfactory. CONCLUSIONS: Both results little indicate a good relation with the surroundings. The relation between both variables has an equal r to 0.62, is to say that it is significant.

OBJETIVO: Relacionar el índice percibido de la calidad ambiental con el estrés ambiental en estudiantes de la UNMSM - Perú. DISEÑO: Descriptivo correlacional con una muestra intencional de 200 sujetos. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se usó el diferencial semántico para medir ambas variables. Se midieron 5 aspectos del ambiente seleccionados por la muestra: la basura, áreas verdes, el smog, el tránsito, la seguridad, siendo el SMOG considerado el más grave. RESULTADOS: Se encontró un índice PEQI igual a 3,82, ligeramente satisfactorio. El nivel de estrés ambiental medido fue de una media de 3,45, poco satisfactorio. CONCLUSIONES: Ambos resultados indican una relación poco buena con el entorno. La relación entre ambas variables tiene una r igual a 0,62, es decir que es significativa.

Under the theoretical framework of Salovey and Moyer a psychometric test has been created to measure Emotional Intelligence. Five domains have been considered for items elaboration: a) Emotional Self-knowledge; b) Emotional Control; c) Self motivation; d) Empathy and e) Interpersonal relations. A randomly sample of 489 first level students was selected from 19 different University Programs which belong to five Academic Areas. The psychometric item analysis permited to take not statistically significant items out. The Test reported internal consistency reliability through Alfa Cronbach Coeficient. It has been reported for each domain evaluated and for the general test. It has been also confirmed content and construct validity for the test.
