Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Method :The study is a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT). The participants and their parents will sign an agreement to participate in the study and will be randomly allocated in control and intervention groups by external researcher using a computer-generated random number. The intervention will be conducted in a school setting between April and November 2025. It will comprise a multicomponent program consisting of nine sessions, each lasting 55 minutes, addressing various topics related to emotional intelligence. Data will be collected from April 2025 to April 2026."Three psychometric scales will be used: Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEMWB), Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS-24) and Child Youth Resilience Measure (CYRM-32), with measurements before the intervention (T0), 9 (T1) and 24 weeks follow-up (T2).The group receiving the intervention is expected to show improvements in emotional well-being, emotional intelligence and resilience compared to the control group.
Accepting an alpha risk of 0.05 and a beta risk of 0.20 in a bilateral contrast, 52 subjects in the first group and 52 in the second group are required to detect a difference equal to or greater than 5 units on the WEMWBS scale. A common standard deviation of 6.8 is assumed. A loss to follow-up rate of 0.1 (10%) and a correlation between observations of 0.4 was estimated.
