Abstract: The evaluation of emotional perception inasmuch as a component of emotional intelligence has traditionally been carried out using ability tests. These tests assess the ability to perceive emotions expressed in pictures as well as video and/or audio files. They continue to possess, notwithstanding, certain limitations that restrict their ecological validity. The present study, following a review of the the main features of these existing instruments, analyzes a new assessment tool for emotional perception using mobile devices that mitigates some of these limi- tations. To do this, a mobile application was devel- oped using two platforms (iOS and Android) and was administered to 860 subjects from 4 countries (Spain, Germany, Colombia and the United States). The results of the reliability analysis of this new sur- vey method were satisfactory, opening the possibility for the use these devices to assess skills such as the ability to accurately perceive emotions.
