O presente trabalho teve como objectivo, estudar a relação entre o retraimento social e
as competências sociais nas crianças do pré-escolar. Alguns estudos indicam que o
retraimento social pode influenciar de forma negativa o desenvolvimento das competências
sociais. Os participantes são 98 crianças (56 do sexo feminino e 42 do sexo masculino), com
idades compreendidas entre os 3 e os 6 anos (M=4.84, DP=0.78), as respectivas educadoras e
mães. Os dados sobre o retraimento social foram recolhidos pelas educadoras através da
Escala de Comportamentos de Brincadeira Observados no Pré-escolar – ECBOP/PPBS
(Coplan & Rubin, 1998, adaptado por Monteiro e Santos, 2012). Os dados da competência
social foram recolhidos junto das mães através da Escala de Competência Social e Avaliação
do Comportamento (LaFreniere & Dumas, 1996). Os resultados indicam, que a manifestação
de comportamentos de retraimento está relacionado com uma baixa competência social por
parte das crianças. Assim como, se evidenciou que os comportamentos de retraimento e as
competências sociais não são afectados pelo sexo da criança.
