Resumo: There is no consensus in the literature regarding the influence of family configuration on the psychological well-being of adolescents. Based on the perception of adolescents, this study evaluates the influence of family configuration, social skills and social support appraisals as potential predictors of adolescent psychological well-being. The participants were 454 adolescents aged between 13 and 17 years from nuclear, separated and remarried families. The adolescents were students in the first and second years of public high school. The data were collectively obtained in the classroom using the Social Skills Inventory for Adolescents, the Social Support Appraisal Scale and the Psychological Well-being Scale. The results indicated that family configuration is not associated with the psychological well-being of adolescents. The social skills of empathy, self-control, civility, social resourcefulness and affective approach as well as the social support appraisals from friends and family were the best predictors of adolescent psychological well-being. The implications of the results are discussed with respect to future research and interventions.

Con base en la percepción de los adolescentes, este estudio evalúa la influencia de la configuración familiar, habilidades sociales y apoyo social percibido como posibles predictivos de su bienestar psicológico. Participaron en el estudio 454 adolescentes de edades comprendidas entre 13 y 17 años de las familias tradicionales, familias con madres divorciadas y familias reconstituidas, en el primer y segundo año de la escuela secundaria. Los participantes respondieron colectivamente en el aula al Inventario de Habilidades Sociales para Adolescentes, la Escala de Apoyo Social Percibido y la Escala de Bienestar Psicológico. El resultado indicó que la configuración familiar no se asocia con el bienestar psicológico de los adolescentes. Las habilidades sociales de empatía, autocontrol, civilidad, inventiva social y aproximación afectiva, así como la percepción de apoyo de amigos y familia fueron los mejores predictores del bienestar psicológico de los adolescentes. Se discuten las implicaciones de los resultados para la investigación y las intervenciones en psicología.Não existe consenso na literatura quanto às influências da configuração familiar no bem-estar psicológico de adolescentes. A partir da percepção de adolescentes, este estudo avaliou a influência da configuração familiar, habilidades sociais e percepção de apoio social como possíveis variáveis preditoras do seu bem-estar psicológico. Participaram 454 adolescentes, na faixa etária entre 13 e 17 anos, de famílias nucleares, monoparentais e recasadas que frequentavam o Ensino Médio. Os participantes responderam coletivamente, em sala de aula, ao Inventário de Habilidades Sociais para Adolescentes, à Escala de Percepção de Apoio Social e à Escala de Bem-estar Psicológico. Os resultados indicaram que a configuração familiar não está associada ao bem-estar psicológico dos adolescentes. As habilidades sociais de empatia, autocontrole, civilidade, desenvoltura social e abordagem afetiva e a percepção de apoio dos amigos e da família foram os melhores preditores do bem-estar psicológico dos adolescentes. Discute-se as implicações dos resultados para novas pesquisas e intervenções.Universidade de São Paulo.
