Abstract

ABSTRACT

The aim of this research is to analyze some traits significant for the development of social skills. Characteristics such as personality, self-concept, coping, self-control and social adjustment are, between others, fundamental for their relationship in normalized contexts. A sample of 14 adolescents whose ages ranged from 14 to 15, were employed this study. The analysis indicates that these students have specific characteristics that make it difficult for them to integrate socially.
