    This research addressed human relations and social well-being among high school students at the “Pedro Fermin Cevallos” Educational Unit, with the purpose of understanding how the quality of coexistence, communication, empathy, and mutual support influenced their school integration and perception of well-being. The presence of limited interpersonal bonds, communication difficulties, and varying levels of participation was identified, aspects that affected the sense of belonging, coexistence, and emotional stability of some students. The study aimed to analyze the influence of human relations on the social well-being of high school students. A quantitative approach was used, employing descriptive and correlational levels, each with its respective analytical-synthetic, deductive, and hypothetical-deductive methods. The population consisted of 180 first-, second-, and third-year high school students, to whom validated instruments for both variables were administered. The analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and Spearman's rho correlation. Among the main findings, it was evident that respect, assertive communication, and empathy strengthened school coexistence, while a lack of support and unhealthy relationships negatively impacted social integration, participation, and emotional security. It was also found that the principles of human relations, their effects, and factors of social well-being were significantly related. In conclusion, it was determined that human relations were an essential component for promoting a harmonious educational environment and fostering the social well-being of adolescents.

    The present study aims to analyze the relationship between the use of video games (UVJ) and socioemotional skills (HSE) in adolescents from the Unidad Educativa “Pedro Fermín Cevallos” in the city of Ambato, Ecuador. UVJ, understood as an interactive activity that combines cultural, cognitive, and social elements, has gained relevance in youth development, with potential to foster competencies such as empathy and emotional regulation, or, in extreme cases, generate isolation and affective dysregulation. HSE, on the other hand, refers to the ability to manage emotions, resolve conflicts, and facilitate communication, essential for interpersonal and academic well-being. The methodological approach was quantitative, allowing an objective measurement of UVJ presence and its impact on HSE. Validated instruments such as the IGD-20 and the Socioemotional Skills Questionnaire for School Mediation (CHSE) were applied, under a cross-sectional correlational design. The sample consisted of 163 students from first, second, and third year of high school, selected from a population of 420. The results indicate that 66.9% of participants show a low level of UVJ, 31.9% moderate, and only 1.2% high. In HSE, 71.2% show a moderate level, with strengths in conflict management and weaknesses in communication and emotional regulation. Correlation analyses reveal a very weak and negative relationship between UVJ and HSE (ρ = -0.107; p = 0.173), indicating the absence of significant influence. In conclusion, UVJ does not represent a determining risk factor for HSE when balanced, making it necessary to raise awareness about responsible technology use in educational contexts to foster socioemotional competencies in adolescents

    Soft 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.

    Grief is a universal experience, but the way each individual experiences and processes it is unique. Bereaved people need to feel understood and supported in their grief, and this is where empathy becomes an essential tool. This social skill allows professionals and loved ones to connect emotionally with the bereaved, validating their feelings and providing a safe space for the expression of emotions. The ability to empathize involves not only understanding another's pain, but also responding appropriately and compassionately. This empathic response can help alleviate emotional distress and facilitate the process of adjustment to loss. In professional contexts, such as social work and psychology, empathy is crucial for building a trusting relationship and for the implementation of effective interventions that address the emotional and psychological needs of the bereaved. The main objective of the research is to determine the importance of empathy in the mourning process, the study is exploratory and descriptive. The desired findings were obtained through a methodology with a purely quantitative approach. For the fulfillment of the quantitative branch, a previously elaborated instrument was used, translated into Spanish and validated in Latin American contexts called Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI), this questionnaire was applied to 233 students studying Social Work, from the first to the eighth semester. The results obtained once the information was collected showed that 67.81% of the participants have an average level of knowledge and practice of empathy in cases of grief. Finally, an intervention proposal was made as a Social Project, with a focus from the area of social work, which consists of an operational plan of activities that allows Empowering empathy and professional capacity in students of Social Work so that they can support people facing a grief process

    Parent-child relationships and empathy is a problem that lies in the emotional and affective relationships, where parents must fulfill their roles of raising, educating, and forming their children. This is an indispensable factor for the development of society, since parenting practices influence the evolution of people as good beings in society, generating more empathetic people who can understand and comprehend what the other person needs. The general objective of this research was to analyze the influence of the parent-child relationship and empathy in the students of the Ricardo Dezcalzi Educational Unit of the Ambato Canton. The study group was structured by a total of 170 people, which were distributed among 85 parents and 85 students, where the methodology used was the quantitative approach, descriptive level, applying the hypothetical-deductive method. The first instrument to be used was the Perceived Parental Competence Scale-p (ECPP-p), comprising 22 items, comprising five (5) dimensions related to parent-child relationships and the second instrument was the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI), comprising 28 items, comprising four (4) dimensions related to empathy. The most relevant results show that there are only two significant correlations between the dimensions applied; highlighting personal dedication and perspective taking have a slight correlation, with a Spearman's Rho value of 0.237; also shared leisure and perspective taking have a slight correlation, with a Spearman's Rho value of 0.232. However, perspective taking stands out as one of the most important dimensions, since it encompasses the others. It is concluded that parent-child relationships and empathy are not only interdependent, but also significantly influence the dynamics of the parent-child relationship, opening opportunities for more effective and emotional interventions and family support
