BONILLA CASTILLON, Claudia Elizabeth; NUNEZ FADDA, Silvana Mabel; DOMINGUEZ MORA, Raquel e CALLEJAS JERONIMO, Juan Evaristo. Supportive Intrafamily Relationships as explanatory Mechanism of Violent Behavior in Scholarized Adolescents. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.4, pp.42-53.

The aim of this study was to analyze the students´ participation in violent behavior in a sample of 1498 adolescents attending 5th and 6th grades (elementary school) and the three levels of middle school in public schools of Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, México, using a structural model. We utilized self-report questionnaires with Likert-type answers, measuring school violence, family function and attitude toward institutional authority. Results revealed that violent behavior in school were negatively related with a good family function (high scores of family union and support). Good family function related indirectly and negatively with violent behavior through attitude towards institutional authority and rules transgression. Finally, we discuss the findings.
