Soft Skills Development in Higher Education
Universal Journal of Educational Research, 2020Co-Authors: Karimova Nilufar Ummatqul QiziAbstract:Nowadays, as a result of economic changes, employers are eager to look for employees with applied Skills rather than cognitive Skills. Diplomas are not being considered as a definitive indicator of students' professional intelligence as it used to be before. Fourth Industry Revolution has dramatically changed labor market and knowledge is now acknowledged as strength of productivity and economic growth, and information technology has acquired great importance. In such a situation, whether employees start their career or change a job, they can show successful performance, if they can change and update themselves continuously, build positive interpersonal relationships in the workplace, learn and win in the unpredictable challenges of the work place. Accordingly, today the graduates of Higher Education need to master not only professional Skills of their job, but also various soft Skills, including the ability to communicate, coordinate, work under pressure, and solve problems. The purpose of this article is to provide literature on the connection of soft Skills with employability and world labour market, the role of soft Skills in career success for future professionals. The article also examines the definition and selection of the most demanding soft Skills from the perspective of different literature. The role of Higher Education in forming and developing soft Skills will then be discussed. The article illustrates the results of survey carried out with the aim to analyze the degree of integration of soft Skills in Study Skills program that is taught for bachelor students in Uzbek State World Languages University and academic curricula.

Marital relationship, parenting practices, and social Skills Development in preschool children
Child and adolescent psychiatry and mental health, 2017Co-Authors: Rikuya Hosokawa, Toshiki KatsuraAbstract:This study examined the pathways by which destructive and constructive marital conflict leading to social Skills Development in preschool children, are mediated through negative and positive parenting practices. Mothers of 2931 Japanese children, aged 5–6 years, completed self-report questionnaires regarding their marital relationship (the Quality of co-parental communication scale) and parental practices (the Alabama parenting questionnaire). The children’s teachers evaluated their social Skills using the Social Skills scale. Path analyses revealed significant direct paths from destructive marital conflict to negative parenting practices and lower scores on the self-control component of social Skills. In addition, negative parenting practices mediated the relationship between destructive marital conflict and lower scores on cooperation, self-control, and assertion. Our analyses also revealed significant direct paths from constructive marital conflict to positive parenting practices, and higher scores on cooperation and assertion. Positive parenting practices mediated the relationship between constructive marital conflict and higher scores on self-control and assertion. These findings suggest that destructive and constructive marital conflict may directly and indirectly influence children’s social Skills Development through the mediation of parenting practices.
