Resumen

Perfiles comportamentales y su relación con patrones diferenciales de desarrollo de la emocionalidad negativa desde la etapa preescolar a la escolar. La investigación continúa profundizando en torno a los mecanismos explicativos tempranos relacionados con la presencia de problemas externalizantes e internalizantes concurrentes. Existe una creciente evidencia que destaca la capacidad de la emocionalidad negativa para predecir la concurrencia de estos problemas durante la infancia. Este rasgo parece cursar con una estabilidad sustancial durante el desarrollo; no obstante, también se reconoce cierta variación en su intensidad en función de las características individuales, del entorno y la etapa del desarrollo. El objetivo del presente trabajo es examinar los patrones de estabilidad y cambio de la emocionalidad negativa que exhiben niños/as con perfiles diferenciales de problemas externalizantes e internalizantes, centrando la atención sobre el perfil concurrente. Un total de 1293 niños/as de 4-6 años (M = 4,64; DT = .67; 50.2% niñas) fueron evaluados durante la etapa preescolar y tras dos años hasta su paso a la escolarización primaria dentro del marco del Proyecto ELISA. Se emplearon análisis de perfiles y transiciones latentes. Los resultados mostraron que los preescolares se mantuvieron estables en sus niveles de emocionalidad negativa durante el seguimiento, y con menor probabilidad cambiaron su expresión emocional hacia formas menos intensas. Además, los perfiles comportamentales se relacionaron con patrones particulares de desarrollo de la emocionalidad negativa. Los niños/as del perfil concurrente exhibieron una mayor probabilidad de evolucionar hacia niveles altos de emocionalidad negativa. Estos hallazgos se explican a la luz de las diferencias individuales en el desarrollo de las características temperamentales, derivadas de la interacción entre factores biológicos y ambientales.
