Emociones y representaciones sociales de la profesión docente

El caso de preescolar

Abstract

This text is an advance of the research “Social representations of preschool teachers from private schools, about the teaching profession in Mexico City”. Through the narrative interview We obtained different stories of life, where respondents described how they became teachers after their needs as mothers and their internal motivations as women. In those testimonies it is worth noticing the manner in which expressed different emotions in telling the story about their choice of profession. Thus it was considered significant to know and recognize in each subject the influence of emotions in the constitution of its integral being and socio-emotional factors that influenced the decision of his profession and in their beliefs about it.
