Resumen
SAMPER, Paula; MESTRE, Vicenta y MALONDA, Elisabeth. Evaluation of the Role of Intellectual and Socioemotional Variables in Solving Problems in Adolescence. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2015, vol.14, n.1, pp.287-298. ISSN 1657-9267. https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.upsy13-5.ervi.
The aim of this research is to analyze cognitive, emotional, and socio-family variables to determine which of these factors have the greatest predictive power to predict effective coping mechanisms among adolescents forced to resolve problems. The sample is made up of 532 students in the third stage of compulsory secondary education (mean = 14.45 years old; SD = 0.763). Using ANOVA, we show the existence of gender differences for the variables under study. Furthermore, regression analysis indicates that the support of others and the perception of stress as a challenge are the variables with the greatest power to predict a coping mechanism when resolving a problem. In contrast, general intelligence, empathy, and attachment to peers have no significant weighting in the prediction of coping mechanisms among adolescents faced with problems.
