Abstract

This research was conducted in an educational setting to analyze psychoeducational intervention strategies aimed at strengthening the psychosocial well-being of ninth-grade students, considering their influence on emotional, social, and academic development. A mixed-methods, descriptive approach was used with a population of 71 participants, comprising 69 students and 2 institutional staff members. The quantitative component consisted of a Likert-type survey that assessed coexistence, emotional development, institutional support, and psychosocial well-being, while the qualitative component involved semi-structured interviews with administrative staff and members of the Student Counseling and Guidance Department. DECE (Student Counseling Department). The results show favorable perceptions regarding strategies related to coexistence, collaborative work, and recreational activities; however, when analyzing more specific aspects such as activities for managing emotions, guidance in the face of emotional or academic difficulties, emotional self-regulation skills, and academic stress management, intermediate levels were evident, reflecting limitations in the development of intrapersonal skills. Indeed, although students acknowledge the support provided by teachers, it is not perceived as consistent or sufficient to strengthen skills such as emotional control and stress management. From an institutional perspective, support and guidance actions exist; however, these are primarily reactive and lack structured and continuous planning. In accordance with the specific objectives, psychosocial needs related to emotional regulation and academic stress were identified, as well as key elements such as teacher support and socio-emotional strategies. In conclusion, the general objective was met by demonstrating that psychoeducational strategies contribute to psychosocial well-being, although their effectiveness depends on greater organization and a more preventative approach within the institution under study. This led to the design of a proposal with psychoeducational intervention activities.
