Abstract
The aim of this study is to better understand the emotions that emerge in university students when processing feedback, how they affect the process, and the influence of emotional competencies and motivational beliefs. To this end, a questionnaire was developed to measure students’ emotional competencies, intensity of emotions associated with processing distance formative feedback, several components of motivational beliefs, and perceived usefulness of targeted feedback. This paper presents the results obtained from 52 students. The analyses show that the students’ emotional competencies are well developed, and that they experience a wide range of emotions when processing feedback. It was not possible to identify any significant links between the variables measured and the perceived usefulness of feedback. However, some are linked to the emotions experienced by students and their intensity, such as the score obtained and, to a lesser extent, certain motivational beliefs.

Résumé
Dans cette étude, nous avons entrepris de mesurer les compétences émotionnelles des étudiants et d’analyser leur mobilisation dans le traitement d’un feedback formatif à l’université. Nous avons pour cela réalisé un questionnaire mesurant les compétences émotionnelles des étudiants, l’intensité des émotions associées au traitement d’un feedback formatif à distance, plusieurs composantes des croyances motivationnelles et la perception d’utilité du feedback ciblé. Cet article présente les résultats obtenus à partir des réponses de 52 étudiants. Nos analyses attestent notamment du bon niveau des compétences émotionnelles des étudiants et de la pluralité des émotions vécues dans le cadre du traitement d’un feedback. Nous n’avons pas pu établir de liens significatifs entre les variables mesurées et la perception d’utilité du feedback en évidence. Cependant, certaines d’entre elles sont liées aux émotions vécues par les étudiants et à leur intensité, comme le score obtenu et, dans une moindre mesure, certaines croyances motivationnelles.

Resumo
Neste estudo, procuramos medir as competências emocionais dos estudantes e analisar a sua mobilização no tratamento de um feedback formativo na universidade. Para isso, realizamos um questionário para medir as competências emocionais dos estudantes, a intensidade das emoções associadas ao tratamento de um feedback formativo à distância, várias componentes das crenças motivacionais e a perceção de utilidade do feedback direcionado. Este artigo apresenta os resultados obtidos considerando as respostas de 52 estudantes. As nossas análises atestam especialmente o bom nível das competências emocionais dos estudantes e a pluralidade das emoções vividas no contexto do tratamento de um feedback. Não conseguimos estabelecer ligações significativas entre as variáveis medidas e a percepção de utilidade do feedback evidenciado. Contudo, algumas delas estão relacionadas às emoções vividas pelos estudantes e à sua intensidade, como a pontuação obtida e, em menor medida, algumas crenças motivacionais.
