Bullying e agressão: Estudo dos preditores no contexto de programa de intervenção da violência escolar

The adolescents interactive processes at school, peers and family contexts presents considerable weight in the study of risk and protective factors associated with the development of aggressive behavior. Given this premise we intend to analyze the relationship between the perception that young people have of their social support and the school climate and the development of different forms and functions of aggressive behavior. Participated in the study 851 adolescents aged between 11 and 19 years, attending elementary and high school grades. Using hierarchical regression, 2 models are presented that capture significant risk and protective factors for reactive overt aggression, reactive relacional aggression, instrumental overt aggression, and instrumental relacional aggression. Results reveal several insteresting patterns of risk and protection for each subtipe of aggressive behavior. Relationships with parents and school climate are key predictors for this sample, representing both risk and protection.
