Abstract

The objective is to analyze the relationship between the process of social skills development and the use of social networks by a group of young people with intellectual disabilities of higher cognitive integrity belonging to the Comprehensive Training Center AVEPANE (Venezuelan Association of Parents and Friends of Exceptional Children). We worked methodologically from a qualitative perspective. An important factor of the analysis is that for them all their friends are truly friends; in effect, their known companion is as much a contact as the unknown one, as their teacher or trainer, although in all of us who have a social network it is like that, we emphasize the horizontality not of the network itself, but the fact that they are not inhibited in having contact with someone who can be an authority figure, which is also perceived as positive and interesting (we will also analyze this in the friendship relationships).
