          Abstract

          Abstract: Emotional Intelligence is a key factor that affects the social and mental wellbeing of students, making it easier for them to understand their environment and make the right decisions in the face of the various conflict situations that arise daily. Therefore, this construct should be constantly developed by educational institutions. For this reason, a meta-analysis has been developed in order to verify the degree of reliability, as well as the benefits that Emotional Intelligence implementation programs bring about to students. The bibliographic search was carried out in the Web of Science, SCOPUS and PubMed databases, making a total of 20 articles published related to the analyzed subject. Only longitudinal articles were included, obtaining an average Effect Size (E.S) of 0.73. When analyzing the effectiveness in the different educational stages, it should be noted that Primary Education yielded the best results (E. S= 0.95), followed by Secundary Education. Regarding duration, medium length programs reported the best results. In addition, better results were achieved in the programs using personality traits as assessment tools. In conclusion, most of the programs contribute to the development and improvement of the students’ Emotional Intelligence, providing them with the necessary skills to face real-life situations, as well as with the ability to feel self-fulfilled in relation to the tasks carried out by them and to the devoted effort.

          Resumen: La Inteligencia Emocional es un factor clave que repercute en el bienestar social y mental de los alumnos, lo que les facilita a comprender su entorno y a tomar decisiones acertadas ante las diversas situaciones conflictivas que surgen diariamente. Lo que pone de manifiesto que este constructo debe de ser desarrollado de forma continua por medio de las entidades educativas. Por ello, se ha desarrollado un meta-análisis con el fin de comprobar el grado de fiabilidad, así como los beneficios que reportan los programas de implementación de Inteligencia Emocional en el alumnado. La búsqueda bibliográfica se ha realizado en las bases de datos Web of Science, SCOPUS y PubMed, obteniendo un total de 20 artículos relacionados con la temática analizada. Solamente se incluyeron artículos de tipo longitudinal, con los que se obtuvo un tamaño del efecto medio de 0.73. Al analizar la efectividad según etapa educativa, destacar que la Educación Primaria fue la que mejores resultados obtuvo (TE=0.95), seguida de la Educación Secundaria. Entorno a la duración de los programas, se obtuvo que los de duración media fueron los que mejor resultados reportaron. Asimismo, los datos los datos más elevados se detectaron en aquellos programas que utilizaron como instrumentos de evaluación los de rasgos de personalidad. Llegando a la conclusión de que mayoritariamente los programas contribuyen al desarrollo y a la potenciación de la Inteligencia Emocional de los alumnos, los cuales los dotan de las habilidades necesarias para afrontar las situaciones que acontecen en el día a día, así como de la capacidad para sentirse auto-realizados con las tareas llevadas a cabo y con el esfuerzo aplicado.

          Assessing heterogeneity in meta-analysis: Q statistic or I2 index?

          In meta-analysis, the usual way of assessing whether a set of single studies is homogeneous is by means of the Q test. However, the Q test only informs meta-analysts about the presence versus the absence of heterogeneity, but it does not report on the extent of such heterogeneity. Recently, the I(2) index has been proposed to quantify the degree of heterogeneity in a meta-analysis. In this article, the performances of the Q test and the confidence interval around the I(2) index are compared by means of a Monte Carlo simulation. The results show the utility of the I(2) index as a complement to the Q test, although it has the same problems of power with a small number of studies.

              Burnout in medical students: a systematic review.

              Burnout is a state of mental and physical exhaustion related to work or care-giving activities. Distress during medical school can lead to burnout, with significant consequences, particularly if burnout continues into residency and beyond. The authors reviewed literature pertaining to medical student burnout, its prevalence, and its relationship to personal, environmental, demographic and psychiatric factors. We ultimately offer some suggestions to address and potentially ameliorate the current dilemma posed by burnout during medical education. A literature review was conducted using a PubMed/Medline, and PsycInfo search from 1974 to 2011 using the keywords: 'burnout', 'stress', 'well-being', 'self-care', 'psychiatry' and 'medical students'. Three authors agreed independently on the studies to be included in this review. The literature reveals that burnout is prevalent during medical school, with major US multi-institutional studies estimating that at least half of all medical students may be affected by burnout during their medical education. Studies show that burnout may persist beyond medical school, and is, at times, associated with psychiatric disorders and suicidal ideation. A variety of personal and professional characteristics correlate well with burnout. Potential interventions include school-based and individual-based activities to increase overall student well-being. Burnout is a prominent force challenging medical students' well-being, with concerning implications for the continuation of burnout into residency and beyond. To address this highly prevalent condition, educators must first develop greater awareness and understanding of burnout, as well as of the factors that lead to its development. Interventions focusing on generating wellness during medical training are highly recommended. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
