“…Music therapy assessment tools that are probably applicable to early adolescents' emotional skills have been developed for different purposes, settings, and contexts. However, most of these tools target both children and adolescents, such as Baxter et al (2007), Carpente (2013), Langan (2009), MacKeith (2011), Layman et al (2002), Douglass (2006), and Goodman (1989), or are applicable to all age groups, such as Loewy (2000). Based on Cripps et al's (2016) comprehensive overview of outcome measures in music therapy, the only assessment tool that was strictly limited to early adolescence was Wells (1988) Music Therapy Assessment for Disturbed Adolescents.…”

Introduction: This paper describes the concept and content of early adolescents' emotional skills among the general population. The research literature contains many emotional skills-related terms with overlapping meanings, and it can be challenging to determine which are applicable for example, to a music therapy assessment tool. This study comprises the first phase of developing an assessment tool for early adolescents' emotional skills, namely, determining what is to be assessed. Method: A scoping review of the literature is presented with written definitions of emotional skills-related terms, as well as a concept analysis of the terms performed using Walker and Avant's method. Results: The components of early adolescents' emotional skills are presented. Early adolescents' emotional skills comprise several skill components as presented in the current research literature. These components help in understanding the multifaceted entirety of emotional skills. Discussion: This paper presents the term emotional skills as a practical, general term that includes the content of other emotional skills-related terms. The concept analysis' outcome, the components of early adolescents' emotional skills, is applicable to future research as a theoretical framework for developing an assessment tool for early adolescents' emotional skills. The components are also useful for music therapy clinicians to analyse their work with early adolescents and to communicate in detail the phenomenona related to emotional skills in therapy.

“…They also evaluate emotional expression (Langan, 2009;MacKeith, 2011), emotional responsiveness (Layman et al, 2002) and emotional constriction (Wells, 1988). Other tools assess social-emotional functioning or behaviour (Douglass, 2006;Goodman, 1989) and range of affect (Loewy, 2000).…”
