abstract = {The present study seeks to develop an explanatory model of existing
relationships between future work skills and academic self-efficacy of a
sample of Unaccompanied foreign minors (UFM) (n = 340) in Spain. The
structural model demonstrated that management of cognitive load
represents the main future work skill amongst UFM. Nonetheless,
adaptive thinking acquires more relevance amongst those who have
spent less time residing in Spain, whilst multidisiplinary capability is
more relevant for those who have already been schooled. On the other
hand, a stronger relationship existed between future work skills and
effort within UFM who had spent less time residing in the country.
However, UFM who had already received schooling acquired a greater
association for comprehension and self-confidence within the construct
of academic self-efficacy. Thus, it is essential for educational and foster
care institutions to develop priority actions that meet the needs of
UFMs from early ages. These should be aimed at psychosocial diagnosis
and the implementation of action plans that will favour cultural
immersion, language learning, team work and technology skills; which
determines various action guidelines for social workers.},
