Objective: To understand the relationships between pre-adolescents and new communicative practices in computer networks in terms of the construction of social values that are fostered through their participation in collaborative video games by observing adolescents playing the Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) video game. Methodology: This is a qualitative study that used ethnographic tools supported by a Likert type survey with students from a school in Bogotá. Results and conclusions: Students clearly differentiate between the values context of the game and values in real life. Social values such as respect, solidarity, otherness and compliance have different meanings in the game compared to their lives. The family is the most recognized source of values for these students in real life while students gain learning experiences from the world of the game.

Palabras clave : social values; pre-adolescents; interactive communication; ethics; video game; convergent spaces; collaborative video games; Grand Theft Auto V.
