Fernández-Castro00aRelationship between perceived emotional intelligence and death anxiety in university students a267-2780 v123 aThis study analyze the relationship between perceived emotional intelligence (PEI) level and death anxiety. A sample of 453 university students responded to the Spanish version (Fernández-Berrocal, Extremera y Ramos, 2004) of the Trait Meta-Mood Scales by Mayer and Salovey (1997), in order to asses the emotional intelligence, and to the Death Anxiety Inventory (DAI) developed by Tomás-Sábado and Gómez-Benito (2005). Results showed that IEP components are related with death anxiety in a differential way: higher levels in emotional attention are related to higher death anxiety and higher levels of emotional clarity or reparation are related to lower death anxiety. Moreover, women showed higher death anxiety than men as well as younger students. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: journal abstract) a1134-7937 a2174-0437
