AB Since emotional intelligence (EI) was developed in 1990, the field of Education took advantage ofthe possibilities of EI. Indeed, EI-specific programs proliferated and developed as socio-emotionallearning programs (SEL). However, there is an alternative to realize non-specifically and longer andviability way for improving the implicit abilities of EI (AEI). The article claims to work a theoreticalproposal to develop the AEI in compulsory education through the subjects. This proposal is basedon the Cattell-Horn-Carroll theory of cognitive abilities (CHC). CHC abilities are stimulated bymost of the mandatory subjects of both Primary and Secondary Schools. The second stratum ofCHC model is composed of similar cognitive abilities as 1997-Ability Emotional Intelligence Model(perception, using, understanding, and managing emotions), which is different from trait EIapproaches - that consider EI has personality traits as well. It has pointed out that the capacities ofthe CHC-model second stratum are connected to the capabilities of AEI. Therefore, any educationalactivity that optimizes perception, understanding, attentional control or planning is affecting thedevelopment of AEI. Promoting AEI involves hot information processing. It is convenient to usetransversely hot information processing - this means that this information has special meaning forthe people. Connecting hot information to mandatory subjects teaching would develop the abilitiesof EI. Both Sciences and Natural Sciences pedagogic devices can improve emotional perception.However, Social Sciences and Humanities foster both emotional understanding and knowledge.Finally, the different contingencies that occur in school life scenarios are suitable for training ofemotional regulation.
