Habilidades sociais e habilidades sociais educativas de famílias de pessoas com deficiência e autismo: uma revisão de artigos científicos

Abstract

This study conducts a literature review centered on the Bioecology of Human Development by Urie Bronfenbrenner, exploring research on educational social skills and social skills within families of children with disabilities. Acknowledging the positive impact on the socioemotional development of children, particularly in social contexts where children with disabilities are integrated, the focus is on the specific behavioral and interactive aspects associated with these disabilities. The study aims to analyze scientific articles addressing social skills or educational social skills of parents of individuals with disabilities, selected from the Lilacs, Scielo, and PsycInfo databases between 2010 and 2023. The analysis of the 10 articles considers the year of publication, the type of disability addressed, and data collection procedures. The complexity of the subject is emphasized, as evidenced by the diversity of disabilities, the use of mixed methods, and the centrality of mothers as participants. Conclusions highlight the importance of parental social skills, their association with child behavior, differences between clinical and non-clinical groups, the influence of gender and age, the effectiveness of interventions, and the multifactorial complexity.
