ABSTRACT

The aim of the study is to analyze the relationship between different prosocial behaviors and different emotional variablesvariables. Participants are boys and girls adolescents of 14-16 years of public and private schools of the Valencian Community. Different types of prosocial behavior (public, altruistic, anonymous, obedience, emergency), negative emotions (emotional instability, anger, aggression, anxiety, stress and threat) and positive emotions (empathy, stress as a challenge) have been evaluated. The results of the analysis indicate differences in the role played by the emotions and their relation to different types of prosocial behaviors of the adolescents.
