“…After-school programs can be used as a violence prevention strategy if they are developed and structured in ways that influence and shape youth capacity in positive ways, and not just used to occupy the unsupervised hours of 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Several evidence-based youth violence prevention strategies have recognized that after-school programs are settings which provide students with safe spaces to strengthen social relationships, develop skills and competencies to choose non-violent behaviors, and build and maintain healthy and safe relationships with caring adults in their community (David-Ferdon & Simon, 2014;Kim, Gilman, Hill, & Hawkins, 2016).…”

“…However, the adolescents involved the most in episodes of violence (as a victim or perpetrator) are more likely to be out of school due to higher school evasion in this group (Kim, Gilman, Hill, & Hawkins, 2016). Another point refers to the fact that the interviews were conducted with adolescents present on the day of application of the questionnaire.…”

“…Os resultados indicaram uma relação inversa entre o conjunto de indicadores do status social e os delitos de uso e de comércio de drogas ilícitas. Gault-Sherman, 2013), vínculo escolar (Kim et al, 2016) e apego aos pais (Gault-Sherman, 2013). Nesse sentido, espera-se que no presente estudo, o nível socioeconômico influencie algumas variáveis investigadas.…”

“…Esse resultado não era esperado, visto que a prevalência de delitos relacionados à violência interpessoal / agressão física foram mais revelados por adolescentes de níveis socioeconômicos mais baixos, em outros estudos anteriores (Gutierrez & Shoemaker, 2008;Junger-Tas, 1994b). No entanto, Kim et al (2016) Ademais, considerando os resultados aqui encontrados a respeito das variáveis escolares, é possível que o comportamento dos adolescentes dos estratos socioeconômicos mais elevados seja mais controlado pela escola, que essa funcione como uma barreira para o agir delituoso, uma vez que eles devem gastar mais horas do dia nesse contexto e em atividades acadêmicas, o que lhes afasta, em certa medida, de atividades comunitárias, sem supervisão. Dentro disso, as menores prevalências de comportamentos delituosos, em geral, e dos delitos violentos, em particular, em meio aos adolescentes das escolas particulares, é compreensível.…”
