Sažetak
The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between emotional intelligence, family relations and depression according to the age and sex of subjects. Participants were 502 seventh and eight grade elementary school pupils and first, second, third and fourth grade high-school students, aged 12 to 18. The Emotional Skills and Competence Questionnaire-ESCQ-45 (Takšić, 2002), the Perception of Family Relations Scale, and the Children and Adolescents Depression Scale were applied. The relationship between variables showed a significant correlation between emotional intelligence skills, depression and family interactions (the coeficients of correlation for specific scales were in a range of 0.12 to 0.36). The predictive validity pointed out that dimensions of family interaction and emotional ability contribute significantly to explaining depression. The ability to regulate and manage emotions appeared as an important predictor in almost all samples. The most interesting findings was that teenagers with high emotional sensivity, but low ability to regulate and manage emotions could be depression prone.
