Abstract

English

El objetivo de este estudio es doble: a) estudiar el grado en que el efecto de las metas sociales en el comportamiento está condicionado por la naturaleza de las distintas situaciones de interacción, y b) desarrollar un cuestionario de metas sociales (CMS) que permita conocer la estructura de tales metas en los adolescentes y su papel en la integración social. Un total de 703 alumnos de Secundaria de la Comunidad de Madrid completó tres cuestionarios, el CMS, un cuestionario de estrategias de interacción social (CEIS) y otro de integración social (CIS). Los análisis de varianza, factoriales exploratorios, de correlaciones y de regresión llevados a cabo han puesto de manifiesto: 1) Que el tipo de situación modera el efecto de las metas sociales en la conducta; 2) Que las metas se relacionan entre sí, pudiendo organizarse en tres dimensiones: Orientación a la sumisión y al alejamiento, Orientación al dominio y la venganza, y Orientación a la afiliación, y que las metas sociales predicen la integración social mejor que las estrategias de interacción social. Se comentan las implicaciones teóricas y aplicadas de los resultados.
