Social Skills Training

• Social skills training is a continuous process, which entails a constant learning for the person, influenced by the relationships and social interactions maintained by the individual [17].

• Social competences entail an efficient development on the professional field from the interaction with other individuals

• Instrumental competences specific to the task

Teaching activity

The attainment of efficient social skills entails a decrease of

conflicts

Competence

Population and sample of the

study

Population= Secondary Education teachers of the

province of Salamanca in service, in the academic year 2011-12 (N=1032 Lower and Upper General Secondary Education teachers; N= 112 Vocational Training teachers).

Sample= 36 teachers (public or state-subsidized) in

the academic year 2012-13

Heterogeneous sample

equal proportions variable of gender

equal proportions variable of ownership of the school

most of theacher being in the categories “15 to 25 years” and “more than 25 years”variable of

years of teaching experience

Variable and instrument

Variable of study: The level of self-perceived Social Skills

Instrument: “Escala de Habilidades Sociales” (Social Skills Scale) (EHS) (Gismeno, 2000).

33 items -28 in inverse sense and 5 in positive sense-, and it measures the usual behavior of the subject in daily situations.

The items are grouped in six factors:

Factor 1. Self-expression in social situations.Factor 2. Defense of the own rights as consumer.Factor 3. Expression of anger or disconformity.Factor 4. Saying no and cutting interactions.Factor 5. Making requests.Factor 6. Initiate positive interactions with the opposite sex.

RESULTS

The values are below the normality

The values are below the normality in woman and men

On a statistical level, there isn’t significant differences (s.l.05) between men and women

CONCLUSIONS

Page 12: Assessment of the social skills self-perceived by secondary education teachers for their professional development

• The results obtained show, in the first place, a level in social skills in the

collective of study which is adequate for the performance of their job. However,going further into the differences of the scale, we confirm a training need, for the

factor 5, related to the capacity to make requests to others. On the other hand weobserve that there aren’t significant differences, in a statistical level (s.l .05) forthe teaching body regarding the variable “gender”.

• Although, on the other hand, it is true that, given the work context in which thiscollective interacts, we could ask ourselves if we shouldn’t find distributions with

values of negative symmetry, which would define a competence level above theaverage, entailing an improvement for the interpersonal relationships developedin the school, and therefore, the level of coexistence.

• Bearing these conclusions in mind we state that, the integration of a program thatenhances the level of competences of the teachers is beneficial for their personal

development. This aspect is based on the fact that, after the integration ofeducational collectives, both teachers and students, in experimental studies withprograms, the competence level of the subjects improves [4] [11] [21] [23] [27].
