Training for socio-affective relationships is a key part of the intervention approach for young people in the care system. This article presents results from a study investigating the effect of relationship training on the psychological well-being of young people in this group, in order to determine whether this intervention affects their autonomy/ independent living skills. To this end, we designed a descriptive, quantitative study within the framework of a larger project examining transitions by young people who have left care. Convenience sampling (a non-probability method) was employed. The sample consisted of 102 young male and female participants who completed the Psychological Well-being Scale[J1] and the Transition to Adulthood Autonomy Scale (EDATVA in Spanish). Inferential analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. The results show that preparing these young participants for family and social relationships had a positive effect on their psychological welfare and autonomy. These findings underscore the need to implement socio-educational intervention strategies aimed at improving family and social relationships within this group.
