To determine the effectiveness of psychoeducational strategies, the Social Skills Questionnai-re was applied, an instrument with the required validity and reliability. Results: Statistically significant differences were found between the scores before and after the intervention (p <0.05), however, the differences in the control group were not significant (p> 0.05). Conclusions: The application of psychoeducational strategies proved to be effective since it managed to develop the social skills of Peruvian students of the sixth grade of primary education.
