This cross-sectional study aims to assess through analysis of data suggested by the Social Behavior Schedule (SBS) quantitatively and qualitatively distinguishing between the limitations of social interaction presented by users of substitute services. Analyses were performed of 385 instruments applied to users of Therapeutic Residential Services (SRT) and the Centers for Psychosocial Care (CAPS). Twenty-one items from the Social Behaviour Schedule (SBS, BR). The data indicate that the individuals studied had from zero to 15 social behavior problems, with an average of 2.5 problems per service user with a standard deviation of 2.84. The majority of the sample appeared to have 1-2 problems among those identified by the scale, and the nonspecific behaviors are present in greater proportion in both services, followed by panic attacks among CAPS users and problems with personal appearance and hygiene in SRT users. In this way, the use of tools that make it possible to assess the data on the social aspects of the psychological distress deserves to be encouraged as a way to further research in this area, and rethink ways of effecting social reintegration of these individuals.
