<p><em><strong>Español</strong></em></p><p>En las últimas décadas ha aumentado el número de publicaciones sobre programas de entrenamiento socioemocional y se consideran como factores protectores que facilitan la adaptación de la persona al contexto y favorecen un mejor afrontamiento ante diferentes situaciones de la vida, así como ante situaciones de estrés. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue realizar una revisión sistemática de programas de entrenamiento socioemocional realizados en niños y adolescentes con el fin de seleccionar los más apropiados. El proceso de búsqueda se efectuó a partir de las bases de datos: PsycInfo, MedLine, ERIC, Red de Revistas Científicas de América Latina y El Caribe, Scielo, PUBMED, con palabras claves en inglés y español. Los resultados muestran que, de los 19 artículos que fueron seleccionados por cumplir con los criterios, se identificaron 17 programas de entrenamiento, la mayoría realizados en España y en el período 2011-2015. Los objetivos fueron, en mayor medida, destinados a entrenar la inteligencia emocional, seguido por los entrenamientos mixtos y en menor medida los destinados a entrenar las habilidades sociales. Se identificaron las técnicas empleadas en estos programas, la duración promedio de las intervenciones, la modalidad de aplicación, los administradores y los destinatarios. Por último, del total de los estudios analizados, la mayoría evidencia efectividad del entrenamiento para algunas de las variables analizadas. La evidencia presentada puede ser de utilidad para investigadores y profesionales del área de la salud y la educación que trabajen con niños y adolescentes.</p><p><em><strong>English</strong></em></p><p>In recent decades the number of publications on social-emotional training programs has increased, achieving consideration as protective factors that facilitate the adaptation of the individual to their context and allow better coping with different life situations, as well as of stressful situations. The objective of the present study was to perform a systematic review of social-emotional training programs in children and adolescents in order to select the most appropriate ones. The search process was carried out in the following databases: PsycInfo, MedLine, ERIC, Red de Revistas Científicas de América Latina y el Caribe, Scielo, PUBMED, with key words in English and Spanish and certain inclusion criteria. The results showed that of the 19 articles that were selected because they met the criteria, 17 training programs were identified, most of them carried out in Spain during the 2011-2015 period. The objectives of these training programs were to a greater extent, adapted to emotional intelligence, followed to a lesser extent by mixed training. The techniques used in these programs were identified, together with the duration of the interventions, the mode of application, the administrators and the recipients. Finally, of the total studies analyzed, most evidenced the effectiveness of training for some of the variables analyzed. The evidence presented may be useful for researchers and professionals in the area of health and education who work with children and adolescents.</p>

Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze which aspects of the Rey Complex Figure Test are more sensitive to the Executive Functions in children and adolescents. Methodology: The study employed a non-experimental cross-sectional design, of retrospective ex-post facto type with one group. The study worked with a purposive sample of 97 children and adolescents between the ages of 8 and 14. To meet the study's objectives, researchers administered the Rey Complex Figure Test, the Mexican Pyramids and Backwards Digit Span subtests of the ENI Battery, the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test and the Stroop Test. Results: significant correlations were found between the Rey Complex Figure Test and executive functions performance. Conclusions: there is evidence that the Rey Complex Figure Test is a measure that, in addition to measuring visuoconstructional abilities and visual memory, provides information about executive performance of children and adolescents linked to the functions of cognitive flexibility, organization and working memory.

(analytical): This study investigates the links between self-perception of social competence in children with ADHD and school sociometric status. The results obtained allow for the development of psychological intervention strategies as well as the design of educational approaches in the classroom to strengthen social interaction for these children. This is a descriptive correlational study with an expo facto design (Montero & León, 2007). The sample consisted of 157 children aged between 8 and 12 years. Two groups were formed, clinical (n = 5) and control (n = 152), paired by age. The Messy questionnaire (Matson, Rotatori & Helsel, 1983) and the Sociometric Test (Moreno, 1962) were administered. Results of the study show that children with ADHD are less assertive than children in the control group and most of the children with ADHD are isolated from their peer group. The study concluded that these children have difficulty establishing bonds with their peers. However, their self-perception of their social skills doesn't always coincide with their school sociometric status in all cases. Key words: children, relationships (Unesco Social Sciences Thesaurus).Authors key words: ADHD, social competence, school sociometric status.

The aim of this study was to analyze ADHD diagnosed children´s process of copy, organization strategies and recall phase of Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure. This study corresponds to an ex post facto retrospective design with two groups, one quasi control. Seventy children between 8 and 14 years old were evaluated; 35 with ADHD and 35 without these diagnoses, paired by sex, age and instruction level. To reach the proposed objective, the process of copying, organizational strategies and memory of the ReyOsterrieth Complex Figure were evaluated. The Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure is a test which consists of copying phase and posterior playing back memory phase of a complex geometric pattern. Results showed a lower yield for the group with ADHD both in copy and memory process, with greater use of C and D types of copy reproduction, being the use of type D expected for younger children. These results allow further analysis of the performance of children with ADHD regarding organizational strategies providing expertise in the conceptualization, evaluation and treatment of the disorder.
