In this research the use of the Lions-Quest programme “Skills for Adolescence“ at an
intermediate secondary school level is examined qualitatively. It is investigated how pupils
at a German intermediate secondary school perceive the social skills training and how that
training affects the social competencies of the pupils. It is also explored if the pupils can
relate their acquired competencies with their values and beliefs.
Based on the empirical-theological praxis cycle, the planning, carrying out and the results
of thirteen one-to-one interviews and three group interviews are presented. Five types of
adolescents can be distinguished in terms of knowing and applying social skills as result of
different grounded theory coding strategies: the power-conscious, the autonomous, the
ambivalent, the self-confident and the competent.
This study wants to contribute to a better evaluation of the implementation of social skills
programmes at schools and particularly in religious education. / Practical Theology / M. Th. (Practical Theology)
