The aim of this study was to make a diagnosis of it from its personal dimension versus sociodemographic characteristics in teachers, and from the findings an educational intervention design was made.

The results indicate that most of the participants are located in the average range up, which accounts for being assertive when communicating. However, statistically significant differences were found for Factor 3, with respect to the level of training (F = 4.189, p = 0.048) and years of experience (F = 3.39, p = 0.045); as well as in Factor 5 with respect to the number of children (F = 5.14, p = 0.029).
