Resumo. O objetivo desse estudo foi investigar as relações entre punição corporal no ambiente familiar e problemas comportamentais em adolescentes. Participaram 15 estudantes do ensino fundamental e médio com idades entre 12 e 15 anos que apresentam comportamentos agressivos na escola. Os adolescentes foram entrevistados sobre as práticas educativas utilizadas pelos seus pais. Verifi cou-se a ocorrência da punição corporal, e os principais motivos relacionam a falta de obediência e o envolvimento em situações de violência na escola. A punição corporal ocorre por meio da palmada, uso do cinto, murros e chutes, e isso ocasiona reações de raiva, tristeza, medo, e a avaliação dos jovens de que os pais estavam estressados no momento dos atos agressivos. Foram identifi cados relatos que aprovam o uso da punição corporal de forma moderada, o que evidencia a transmissão intergeracional da violência, entretanto, o disciplinamento de comportamentos por meio do diálogo foi considerado importante. Os resultados destacam que a punição corporal utilizada no contexto familiar apresenta repercussões nos comportamentos agressivos desses adolescentes na escola.Palavras-chave: adolescência, punição corporal, práticas educativas.Abstract. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between corporal punishment in the family environment and behavioral problems in adolescents. Fifteen primary and secondary students aged 12 to 15 years old with aggressive behaviors at school participated in the study. The teenagers were interviewed about disciplinary practices used by their parents. The occurrence of corporal punishment was reported and the main reasons for this relate the lack of obedience to the involvement in situations of violence at school. Corporal punishment occurs by means of spanking, blows, and kicks which cause reactions of anger, sadness and fear as well as the understanding that their parents were stressed at the moment of the aggressive acts. Reports approving the use of corporal punishment in a moderate form were identifi ed, which highlight the intergenerational transmission of violence, however, the discipline of behaviors through dialogue was considered important. The results highlight that corporal punishment used in the family context presents repercussions in aggressive behaviors of adolescents in school.
