description The aims of this study were: to describe the level of satisfaction of the basic psychological and emotional intelligence needs of adolescent high school students, and to verify the predictive capacity of the first over the second. For this purpose, the validated Spanish versions of the Basic Psychological Needs in Exercise Scale and the Trait Meta-Mood Scale were used. The sample was composed of 464 secondary school students from 12 to 17 years old. The results of the descriptive and correlation analysis indicated that the psychological need they felt most satisfied was their relationship with others and that it was the emotional repair dimension that scored highest. On the other hand, through linear regression analysis it was found that the psychological need that was most predictive of basic psychological needs was the relationship with others. The results obtained indicated that people with greater need to relate will tend to develop better emotional intelligence.
