Resumo.A literatura descreve que usuários de drogas apresentam baixos escores em habilidades sociais e que estas podem ser desenvolvidas através do Treinamento em Habilidades Sociais (THS). Entretanto, carecem de sistematizações sobre tal intervenção no contexto nacional e internacional. Dessa forma, objetiva-se identificar estudos empíricos sobre o THS para usuários de drogas em tratamento, analisando como a intervenção vem sendo utilizada, principais benefícios e eventuais limitações de sua aplicação com esse público. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática de literatura nas bases de dados Medline Complete, Scopus, IBECS, Index Psi e LILACS. Foram utilizados os descritores e operadores booleanos "social skills" AND "training" AND "substance-related disorders". Foram incluídos cinco artigos que contemplaram os critérios de inclusão: ser artigo empírico, ter como público--alvo pessoas com transtorno por uso de substância e ter utilizado o THS no tratamento do uso de drogas. Observou-se que a intervenção vem sendo realizada de maneira complementar a outras técnicas, mostrando-se bené-fica no aumento das habilidades sociais em usuários de drogas. Todavia, a maioria dos estudos não apresentou resultados que fossem exclusivos do THS, carecendo de instrumentos específicos para a avaliação das HS. Tal questão implica na necessidade de estudos que identifiquem os efeitos do THS e descrevam detalhadamente seus procedimentos.Palavras-chave: habilidades sociais, treinamento, transtorno relacionado ao uso de substâncias.Abstract. Literature describes that drug users have low scores in social skills and that these can be developed by the Social Skills Training (SST). However, they need systematizations about such intervention in the national and international contexts. Thus, the objective of his paper is to identify empirical studies on SST for drug users in treatment, analyzing how the intervention has been used, benefits and possible limitations of its application with this population. This study is a systematic review of literature on Medline Complete, Scopus, IBECS, Index Psi and LILACS. The descriptors and boolean operators "social skills" AND "training" AND "substance-related disorders" were used. There were included five articles that contemplated the inclusion criteria: empirical article, having as target people with disorder by substance use and who have used SST in the treatment for drug use. It was observed that interventions have been performed to complement other techniques, being beneficial to the increase of social skills of drug users. However, most studies did not show results that were unique to the THS, Treinamento em habilidades sociais para usuários de drogas: revisão sistemática da literatura

Avaliação Do Repertório De Habilidades Sociais De Usuários De Substâncias Psicoativas Em Tratamento

“…When the ability is only emitted sporadically, it is considered to exist in the repertory, but performance deficits occur. Also, if the individual faces great difficulty in the emission of a certain ability, with absence of spontaneity, the fluency deficit occurs (BARRETO et al, 2011;LIMBERGER et al, 2017). The most commonly used measures are self-report instruments and observational protocols, as well as the identification of acquisition, performance and fluency deficits to assess deficits and/or difficulties in social skills (BARRETO et al, 2011;LIMBERGER et al, 2017).…”

“…In this sense, social skills training (SST) is one of the main approaches used in the treatment of chemical dependency (SÁ; DEL PRETTE, 2014;SCHNEIDER et al, 2016;COUTINHO et al, 2017;LIMBERGER et al, 2017). Research on the repertory of social skills of users of psychoactive substances can help health professionals to develop strategies and interventions aimed at the care and treatment of users of psychoactive substances.…”

“…Social skills are developed and improved naturally throughout life, and this process is consolidated through the establishment of relationships and social interactions. The repertory of social skills can help in the diversification of the individual's protective and resilient factors, collaborating with human development and promoting physical and mental health and quality of life (DEL PRETTE;DEL PRETTE, 2001;MURTA, 2005;LIMBERGER et al, 2017). Social skills deficits, among other variables, may make the individual more susceptible to a variety of risks, such as involvement with the consumption of PAS (PINHO; OLIVA, 2007;WAGNER;OLIVEIRA, 2009;SCHNEIDER et al, 2016).…”

Social skills training for drug users under treatment: a pilot study with follow-up

“…Literature about SST for treatment of drug users is still lacking, according to a systematic review of the literature (Limberger, Trintin-Rodrigues, Hartman, & Andretta, 2017). This review was done on papers from the MEDLINE Complete, Scopus, IBECS, Index Psi, and LILACS databases and brings to light five studies that performed SST with drug users under treatment.…”

“…On the other hand, symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress can prevent individuals from expressing a socially skilled repertoire, thus negatively impacting their quality of life (Del Prette & Del Prette, 2011). In these terms, because of positive results achieved with SST such as improved social skills and increased treatment adhesion (Limberger et al, 2017) and despite the scarce literature on SST in SUD treatment, the review showed the need for evidence-based interventions to be developed and their effects to be assessed in the context of therapeutic communities. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to describe the results of a pilot study regarding the social skills training of drug users under treatment.…”
