Summary

Emotional problems are among the most frequent psychological problems in the school stage,
 having an early onset. When they are not detected and they do not receive adequate
 intervention, they persist and become chronic, being considered precursors of other problems
 in adolescence and adulthood. The early onset of emotional problems, and their precursor role
 for other disorders, justify the need for preventive interventions as soon as possible. Since
 there is evidence that anxiety and depression share common underlying mechanisms, preventive
 programs should address shared risk factors. For this reason, the objective of this study is
 to test the effectiveness of an 8-session cognitive-behavioral protocol developed for Spanish
 children aged 4 to 6 in the educational context in a controlled trial. The objective of the
 program is that children improve their skills to manage their own emotions and to improve
 their ability to interact with other. The program will be applied ina group format and will
 be enriched with multimedia material that the implementer will project at various moments of
 the sessions.
