Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) affects up to 4% of a pediatric population, with many comorbidities in the medium-long term. Functional alterations in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) may explain why OSAS impacts aspects such as executive functions, memory, motor control, attention, visual-spatial skills, learning, and mood regulation. Emotional intelligence (EI) is a complex neuropsychological function that could be impaired in many clinical conditions. <jats:italic>Purpose<\/jats:italic>. The aim of the study is to evaluate the difference in emotional intelligence skills among children with OSAS and healthy subjects (nOSAS). <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>. 129 children (72 males; mean age <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M1\"><mml:mn>7.64<\/mml:mn><mml:mo>\u00b1<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>1.98<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math> years) affected by OSAS were compared to 264 non-OSAS (nOSAS) children (138 males; mean age <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M2\"><mml:mn>7.98<\/mml:mn><mml:mo>\u00b1<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>2.13<\/mml:mn><\/mml:math>) similar for gender, age, and socioeconomic status. In order to assess the emotional quotient, the Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory: Youth Version (EQ-i:YV) was used. <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. The comparison for means and standard deviation between OSAS children and nOSAS children for EQ-i:YV scores showed significant differences for Interpersonal, Adaptability, and Stress Management scales and EQ Total score. <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>. Our findings highlighted the role of intermittent hypoxia in the genesis of the effects of sleep-related respiratory disorders, which involves also aspects different from physical impairments.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2019\/6530539","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,9,5]],"date-time":"2019-09-05T19:31:20Z","timestamp":1567711880000},"page":"1-6","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Emotional
