What is Emotional Management

In this chapter the authors try to delve into the relationship between emotional education and social education in the context of higher education. To do this, the theoretical framework has been developed by referring to the interest of emotional education, as well as the importance of emotional competencies, within the educational work of the 21st century. In this way, the research carried out to know this relationship more in depth is justified, on the one hand, contemplating the perceptions of students and teachers from a questionnaire that raises the perceptions about the importance of this relationship and, on the other hand, identifying the content on education and emotional management in the educational programs of bachelor's degrees in social education at the Spanish universities, highlighting the importance of competencies assessment. The results are discussed with other studies and contributions on emotional education in socio-educational intervention, thus achieving the aims of the research.
