This book provides a comprehensive overview and in-depth analysis
of research on psychosocial skills, examining both theory and areas
of application. It discusses students' psychosocial skills both as
components of academic success and desired educational outcomes in
grades K through 12. The book describes an organizing framework for
psychosocial skills and examines a range of specific constructs
that includes achievement, motivation, self-efficacy, creativity,
emotional intelligence, resilience, and the need for cognition. In
addition, it reviews specific school-based interventions and
examines issues that concern the malleability of psychosocial
skills. It addresses issues relating to the integration of
psychosocial skills into school curriculum as well as large-scale
assessment policies. Topics featured in this book include:
Development of psychosocial skills in grades K-12. Assessment of
psychosocial skills. Conscientiousness in education and its
relation to meaningful educational outcomes. Creativity in schools,
including theory, assessment, and interventions. Academic emotions
and their regulation through emotional intelligence. Resilience and
school-based programs aimed at enhancing it. Psychosocial Skills
and School Systems in the 21st Century is a must-have resource for
researchers, graduate students, clinicians, mental health
professionals, and policymakers in child and school psychology,
educational policy and politics, public health, social work,
developmental psychology, and educational psychology.
