Sumario: | This study aimed to investigate whether Social Skills and Coping Strategies predict the variable Problem Solving in psychology students. Participants were 409 psychology students from private institutions, with ages ranging from 18 to 34 years (M= 24.97; SD= 5.04). The Social Skills Inventory, the Problem-Solving Modes Scale and the Problem-Solving Skills Scale were used as instruments. The results showed that the Problem Coping Modes Scale and the Social Skills Inventory together accounted for 16% of the variance of the overall scale of the Problem Solving Skills Scale, which may be an indication of how students solved their problems. The results contribute to the development of problem-solving skills involved in the training of future psychologists and in the development of students. |
