About
Studies show that emotional competence plays a significant role in psychological and physical health, and that programs aimed at their development are effective. Can a positive psychology program aimed at the development of emotional competence be implemented as part of care in lieu of deprivation of liberty? The investigators hypothesize the interest and possibility of implementing an emotional skills development program in the specific context of custodial care.
The main expected outcome of this study is the identification of necessary adaptations of the emotional skills development program of Kotsou, I. et al (2011) for its implementation in remand homes.
