The subject varies greatly depending on social norms and community expectations. ==Enumeration and categorization== The UNICEF Evaluation Office suggests that "there is no definitive list" of psychosocial skills;〔 〕 nevertheless UNICEF enumerates many "psychosocial and interpersonal skills generally considered important".

For example, decision-making often involves critical thinking ("what are my options?") and values clarification ("what is important to me?"), (How do I FEEL about this?"). Ultimately, the interplay between the skills is what produces powerful behavioral outcomes, especially where this approach is supported by other strategies〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UNICEF - Search Results )〕 Life skills can vary from financial literacy,〔(USA Funds Life Skills )〕 through substance-abuse prevention, to therapeutic techniques to deal with disabilities such as autism. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「life skills」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
