Resumen
The present study explores the development of emotional intelligence in university students from the gender perspective. The interest in this research arises from a characterization carried out on students from the University of Otavalo, Imbabura, Ecuador, in which levels of sustained stress are reflected in the student population, related to academic performance. The methodology was qualitative- quantitative, exploratory in scope, based on a population universe of 1024 students. Sampling was by convenience according to the following parameters: a) equitable representation of students by major; b) equitable gender representation; c) students who have completed at least 60% of the curriculum. From this, the composition of the sample was 230 students, 115 men and 115 women. The instrument used was the Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS24) questionnaire. As a qualitative technique the focus group applied under the criterion on gender transversality, using the problem tree as an instrument. The results report qualitative differences in the construction structures of emotional intelligence according to gender. Cultural patterns and social roles generate different ways of managing and expressing this intelligence. The conclusions highlight the impact of emotional intelligence on the academic performance of students and the need to implement emotional education programs as part of the third-level curriculum.
