Abstract
Objective This study aims to verify the relationship between victimization, empathy, and resilience in a sample of young delinquents, to analyze gender differences in resilience and empathy, and to explore the predictive value of these variables in empathy. Method The sample comprised 41 individuals aged 14 to 19, including 23 young males and 18 young females. Results The findings confirm a negative relationship between resilience and victimization, a positive correlation between empathy and resilience, and gender-based variations in resilience. This research shows that gender, age, victimization, and resilience are predictors of empathy in young delinquents. Conclusion Our results contributed significantly to the understanding of victimization, resilience, and empathy in the context of juvenile delinquency.
