SARTORI, María Soledad y LOPEZ, Marcela Carolina. Social skills: Their importance for women diagnosed with Turner Syndrome. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.2, pp.1055-1067. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.14212160115.
Positive Psychology proposes the importance of working based on an integrated view of each person, including their strengths and weaknesses. This view is important for work with physically, psychologically and socially vulnerable populations. Turner Syndrome is a chromosomal disorder determined by the deletion of the X chromosome in females, with size and gonadal dysgenesis as the main physical characteristics. This syndrome has a strong impact on the psychological development of this population, creating problems among women with Turner Syndrome as it affects their ability to establish optimal relationships. The aim of this study is to highlight the importance of developing social skills for women with Turner Syndrome, particularly during childhood and adolescence, considering that these skills act as a healing method that prevents further disorders during adulthood.
