Item type:Ítem, Habilidades sociales en estudiantes universitarios(Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Trabajo Social, 2025-02-20) ;Benítez Arroba, Belén EstefaníaBalseca Basantes, JeannethSoft skills in college students are fundamental to their academic and personal development. These skills include the ability to communicate effectively, work in teams, manage conflicts and develop healthy interpersonal relationships. In the university context, students must learn to interact with peers, professors and other members of the educational community, which allows them to improve their adaptation to the social and work environment. Empathy, active listening and assertiveness are essential to strengthen these skills. Regarding the methodology, a quantitative approach of exploratory-descriptive level was used, with a design based on deductive and analytical-synthetic methods. An instrument previously validated by Goldstein (2018) was applied, which allowed the collection of relevant information on the social skills of undergraduate students of the Social Work Career, the procedures for data collection and analysis were described in detail. The results obtained reveal that students present a deficient level in general social skills, with significant weaknesses in advanced skills such as expression of feelings and strategic planning in social interactions. Finally, the results and discussion focus on identifying and analyzing areas for improvement, highlighting the need to reinforce advanced social skills in the curriculum of social work students. It is suggested that such deficiencies could negatively impact their future professional performance. Conclusions highlight the importance of implementing training strategies that strengthen interpersonal competencies, and recommendations are proposed for educational institutions, public policies and future research.
