The UV research groups (GIUV) are regulated in the 1st chapter of the Regulation ACGUV48/2013, which explains the procedure for creating new research structures. They are basic research and organizational structures that result from the voluntary association of researchers that share objectives, facilities, resources and common lines of research. These researchers are also committed to the consolidation and stability of their activity, work in groups and the capability to achieve a sustainable funding.
The research groups included in the previously mentioned Regulation are registered in the Register of Research Structures of the Universitat de València (REIUV), managed by the Office of the Vice-principal for Research and Scientific Policies. The basic information of these organisms can be found in this website.

Reference of the Group:
Description of research activity: The LLINDANTS research group focuses its activity on the study of social, educational, occupational, and health-related processes that take place in boundary or transitional contexts, understanding these thresholds as key moments in the life trajectories of individuals, groups, and organizations. The group approaches these processes from a psychosocial, interdisciplinary, and applied perspective, integrating both the analysis of reality and the design, implementation, and evaluation of interventions aimed at inclusion, well-being, and social sustainability.

Scientific-technical goals: - To analyze and intervene in psychosocial processes that develop in contexts of change, vulnerability, and transition throughout the life cycle (educational, occupational, organizational, and health-related) with the aim of promoting inclusive, sustainable, and well-being-oriented life trajectories.
- To analyze psychosocial factors that influence educational, occupational, and professional trajectories, with particular attention to employability, social and labor market integration, career development, and labor market transitions.
- To identify the social, emotional, and training needs of groups in threshold or vulnerable situations, including individuals with high abilities, university students, oncology patients and their families, as well as workers and organizations in contexts of change.
- To study personal, emotional, and social development processes throughout the life cycle, incorporating the analysis of emotions, values, subjective well-being, and socio-emotional competencies in educational, occupational, and health contexts.
- To analyze conflict, negotiation, and emotional management in social, educational, and organizational contexts, as well as their impact on individual well-being, team functioning, and organizational sustainability, including family businesses.
- To design, implement, and evaluate psychosocial, educational, occupational, and socio-health interventions, based on scientific evidence, aimed at inclusion, well-being improvement, and social sustainability.
- To develop and validate assessment instruments that allow for the analysis of trajectories, needs, competencies, conflicts, and inclusion processes in different contexts and populations.
- To promote social sustainability and responsible change in organizations and communities, integrating perspectives of well-being, equity, intergenerational relationships, and social responsibility.
- To foster knowledge transfer and collaboration with institutions, social entities, educational centers, organizations, and health services, contributing to the design of evidence-based policies, programs, and practices.
Research lines: - Thresholds of Inclusion, Development, Action, Needs, Life Trajectories and Sustainability.LLINDANTS is defined as a research space that works from social margins and thresholds to understand processes of change and to intervene in them in a responsible, rigorous, and socially transformative manner. The research activity of LLINDANTS is organized around several interconnected axes that reflect a consolidated and plural scientific trajectory:
1. Employability, transitions, and professional development
Research on educational and labor transitions, social and labor market integration, employability, and career development, with particular attention to groups in situations of vulnerability. This axis includes the study of social enterprises, active labor market policies, inclusion pathways, and the psychosocial factors that promote sustainable employment trajectories.
2. Conflict, negotiation, and emotions in social and labor contexts
Study of conflict processes, negotiation strategies, leadership, and the role of emotions in educational, labor, and community contexts, with a clear orientation toward intervention and knowledge transfer.
3. High abilities, inclusive education, and talent development
Analysis of the personal, emotional, and social development processes of individuals with high abilities, as well as the family, educational, and institutional factors that influence their well-being and inclusion. This axis incorporates a systemic perspective on specific educational needs, talent identification, and the promotion of inclusive educational environments throughout the life course.
4. Nursing action, health, and oncological contexts
Study of the psychosocial processes associated with illness, especially in the fields of oncology and palliative care, with particular emphasis on the role of nursing practice, patient-family-professional relationships, and social and emotional needs in situations of extreme vulnerability. This axis integrates applied research aimed at improving quality of life and socio-health care.
5. University students, development, and well-being
Research on educational trajectories, beliefs, values, socio-emotional competencies, and the well-being of university students, as well as on processes of adaptation to the educational, personal, and professional changes characteristic of the university stage.
6. Social sustainability, family business, and organizational change
Analysis of social sustainability processes in organizational contexts, with special attention to family businesses, workplace well-being, conflict, negotiation, and emotional management in environments of change. This axis includes the study of interpersonal and intergenerational relationships, as well as strategies for positive conflict management and sustainable decision-making.
LLINDANTS adopts a plural methodological approach, combining quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods, as well as evaluation strategies and action research. This approach makes it possible to address the complexity of the contexts studied and to generate rigorous knowledge with social impact.
A distinctive feature of the group is its clear orientation toward psychosocial, educational, labor, and socio-health intervention, as well as toward the transfer of results to public institutions, social organizations, educational centers, companies, and health services. The group¿s activity thus contributes to the design of evidence-based practices and to the promotion of more inclusive, sustainable, and well-being-oriented life trajectories.
