AMBIEN-TICO, cuyas primeras siete ediciones fueron trimestrales, cumplía la función de divulgar los resultados de la investigación.

El abuso sexual a niñas, niños y adolescentes: un secreto familiar, un problema familiar, un problema social

This investigation has the purpose of identifying how to prevent through educational processes, and then eradicate, the sexual abuse against children and adolescents in rural communities from Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.

This implies considering: the legal framework, the response offered by government and private organizations towards the prevention and attention of rights as well as their actions to penalize and restore the violated rights; the role of families as main responsible of the well being of their children and the role of children and adolescents.

For him, scientific research is the instrument by which science makes it to scientific knowledge. (1982, p. 11)
