Abstract
The objective of this text is to present the results of a field research that is part of the discipline of Interdisciplinary Practical Activities of Extension I, as a requirement to obtain approval at the end of the 2023.2 semester. The research focused on mental health in high school students, focusing on emotions. In the methodology, we conducted a field research, focusing on a qualitative analysis of the data in which we observed the daily life of students from a high school through a field diary and semi-structured interviews. To support our study theoretically and methodologically, we used the contributions of (DORSA, 2020), (SILVA; ALBUQUERQUE, 2021), TEIXEIRA; PACÍFICO; BARROS, 2023), (GUAZI, 2021), (FREITAS; SANTOS; PRADO, 2020), (PESSOA; CRUSOÉ, 2022), (BRITO ET AL, 2021), (PAPALIA; FELDMAN; MARTORELL, 2012), (BOCK, 2008), as well as normative documents of Brazilian education. The study revealed that most students: 1) face difficulties in understanding their emotions; and 2) they face difficulties in administering them in a balanced and healthy manner. In addition, the research allowed us to conclude that there is still a need to strengthen ties between family and school, there is a lack of training and qualification for teachers on the subject and that schools need a more frequent presence of psychologists in the day-to-day routine of institutions.
