Abstract:
The present study is based on a systematic and comparative analysis of the specialized literature in the fields of philosophy, psychology and educational sciences and aims at the theoretical and methodological substantiation of the concept of emotional freedom in relation to general freedom and particular freedom.
The investigative approach is structured on the theoretical coordinate and the methodological coordinate, in accordance with the rigors of doctoral research promoted within the Doctoral School of Educational Sciences. It is argued that emotional freedom constitutes the mature expression of personal autonomy and an indicator of the internalization of educational values. The theoretical results obtained can serve as a foundation for the further development of a pedagogical model for cultivating emotional freedom in students.
Keywords: freedom, general freedom, particular freedom, emotional freedom, emotional education, emotional regulation.
