Social-Emotional Learning in Preschool: Foundations, Review of Research, and Proposals. REDIE [online]. 2020, vol.22, e26. Epub Mar 02, 2021.

This study seeks to present the theoretical and methodological foundations for the design and implementation of a curriculum aimed at developing social and emotional skills in preschools in a Latin American context. It lays down the reasons justifying the inclusion of a social-emotional development program in the preschool curriculum, the theoretical foundations underpinning the importance of teaching this aspect of child psychological development, and the findings of empirical studies conducted in a Hispanic and Latin American context. The work concludes by offering theoretically and methodologically grounded guidelines for the implementation of a curriculum that includes teaching social and emotional competence in Latin American preschools.
