Emotional competence is the ability to perceive, express, understand, regulate, and control our emotions and those of others. Emotional awareness is the competence that allows the development of the emotional competencies during childhood and adolescence. The aim of this piece of work is study the psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the emotional awareness Questionnaire, administered to 1476 Spanish children (8-12 years old). The original six-factor structure was replicated. An analysis was performed on the items, construct validity, content validity, and the concurrent validity, with the results being satisfactory. Significant differences were found for gender and age. The results support the use of a self-report questionnaire for clinical as well as research purposes.
