Abstract
This research aims to study the relationship among social, emotional and moral competencies, reading comprehension, and mathematical competence. The study is cross-sectional and ex-post-facto, with a convenience sample of 209 students in 7th grade (1st level of Spanish Compulsory Secondary Education) in three schools. Reading and mathematical competence no significant differences were found with other variables. The data highlights significant differences in social, emotional and moral competencies. The lack of significant relations among the three key competencies has educational implications.
Key words: social, emotional and moral competencies; reading, mathematical competence, compulsory education.
