“…After all, this plausible claim was to be verified in our study, where age and gender were found to moderate the link between social support and parent-reported externalizing problems. This particular moderation effect may reflect the suggestion that social support is more influential on the level of externalizing problems in girls (Bender & Lösell, 1997), in addition to the observations that such problems are more common in children than in adolescents with CP (McCullough et al, 2011), and that statistical correlations with externalizing problems may only occur in proxy-reports (Janssen et al, 2010). However, given the small sample size in which these effects were detected, their interpretation should be merely assumed as exploratory.…”

“…For example, in Kim-Cohen, Moffitt, Caspi, and Taylor's (2004) study of children in low-income households, the researchers found that maternal warmth was a primary protective factor in promoting positive adjustment among girls despite low-income status. In Bender and Losel's (1997) study on highly aggressive girls demonstrated that having a moderately prosocial boyfriend served as a protective factor for their sample and influenced the girls toward reducing their involvement in aggressive and antisocial behaviors.…”

“…However, many studies have primarily included Caucasian youth (e.g., Bender & Losel, 1997;Cillessen et al, 2005;Kim-Cohen et al, 2004;Moretti et al, 2005). Moreover, the few studies of aggressive behavior among ethnic minorities have focused on African American youth (see Miller-Johnson et al, 2005;Sullivan et al, 2006;Xie et al, 2003;ZimmerGemback et al, 2005).…”

Research on both the forms and functions of aggression has yet to include the experiences of lowincome minority adolescent girls, particularly Latinas. The present study addresses this limitation by applying ecological systems theory to identify risk and protective factors across multiple domains that increase and mitigate aggressive behavior among a sample of 212 low-income minority adolescent girls, primarily Latinas. Using hierarchical regression, 4 models are presented that capture significant risk and protective factors for instrumental overt aggression, instrumental relational aggression, reactive overt aggression, and reactive relational aggression. Results reveal several interesting patterns of risk and protection for each subtype of aggressive behavior. Relationships with parents and peers are key predictors for this sample, representing both risk and protection that might relate to important cultural factors. The study findings offer further considerations of culturally relevant, gender-specific risk and protective factors. Implications for social work research in terms of refining current prevention and intervention strategies are discussed.

Muitos dos estudos realizados no âmbito da delinquência juvenil tendem a dar suporte a uma conceptualização socio-ecológica da delinquência juvenil, a qual sugere que esta é multideterminada pela inter-relação recíproca e dinâmica das características do indivíduo e dos sistemas sociais chave (Agnew, 2003). Neste artigo, apresentamos os resultados de um estudo conduzido com o objectivo de identificar retrospectivamente, num grupo de adolescentes delinquentes, um conjunto de factores de risco psicossocial, tipologia do comportamento delinquente e história de risco ou adversidade psicossocial na infância. A investigação centrou-se ainda na compreensão da relação entre estes factores e indicadores de sintomatologia psicopatológica. O estudo integrou um total de 63 adolescentes abrangidos pela Lei Tutelar Educativa e os dados foram recolhidos na região sul do país. Como instrumentos de recolha de dados, foram utilizados o Índice Geral de Sintomas (IGS) do Brief Symptom Inventory e um questionário de caracterização construído com base na revisão da literatura sobre os indicadores de risco psicossocial para comportamento anti-social na adolescência, destacando-se a tipologia de risco psicossocial estabelecida por Born, Chevalier e Humblet (1997) e a taxonomia desenvolvimental do comportamento anti-social de Moffit (1993). Os resultados obtidos sugerem que os adolescentes cujos pais apresentam uma relação conflituosa tendem a apresentar um índice de sintomas psicopatológicos significativamente superior ao dos adolescentes cujos pais não revelam conflitos aparentes. No entanto, o relato de psicopatologia não parece ser significativamente superior nos jovens com indicadores de acontecimentos negativos na infância (separações de pais, ausência de figura paterna, institucionalizações, maus-tratos na infância, conflitos entre os pais). No presente artigo são discutidos os resultados obtidos, consideradas algumas limitações do estudo e efectuadas propostas de investigações futuras.
