Resumen:
Sumario:Socioemotional competences in schools serve as protective factors for mental health, enhance academic outcomes, and contribute to a positive school climate. However, the impact of these competences on adolescents with autism, who experience specific challenges in communication and social interaction, remains unclear. The objective of this review is to explore the existing literature on interventions aimed at developing socioemotional competences in adolescents within the autism spectrum, focusing on their characteristics and effectiveness within the context of inclusive education challenges. The PRISMA method was employed, resulting in the selection of seven articles from a pool of 158 texts examined across four databases. The findings indicate a predominance of small effect sizes, sample sizes below 30, and a frequency of two sessions per week for periods of approximately 15 weeks.
