Aproximación a los factores explicativos del desistimiento en jóvenes infractores

L'article té per objectiu explorar quins factors esdevenen rellevants per al cessament de la conducta delictiva en menors i joves infractors,relacionant dos conceptes que malgrat que provenen d'àmbits disciplinaris diferents, el desistiment i la resiliència, tenen força elements en comú. En l'estudi participen un total de 110 joves de la província de Barcelona entre 14 i 17 anys que es troben pendent d'inici, en execució o han finalitzat un programa socioeducatiu (mediació, medi obert o internament) en l'àmbit de la justícia juvenil. S'utilitza un qüestionari i una fitxa per recollir informació de les bases de dades del Departament de Justícia de la Generalitat de Catalunya. Els principals resultats indiquen que un passat advers no dificulta el desistiment, i que l'acció de factors de protecció contextuals i individuals fa minvar el risc de reincidència.

Análisis de los apoyos que reciben los jóvenes con discapacidad intelectual en su transición a la vida adulta en España: una investigación a partir de experiencias de profesionales y personas con discapacidad = Analysis of support received by young people with intellectual disabilities in their transition to adulthood in Spain: an investigation based on the experiences of professionals and people with disabilities

The objective of this study is to gather information regarding the adaptation of the range of socio educational projects and services aimed at the transition to an adult life of young persons with intellectual disabilities in Spain. The research of the study has been done in three stages. During each stage, a specific tool has been used. One to one in-depth interviews have been undertaken with 45 professionals and 20 individuals with intellectual disabilities. The Delphi method has been applied to two panels consisting of 20 experts each. Firstly, results focus on the approach to different issues related to the devices. Secondly, the training opportunities that these individuals receive to ease the transition period is addressed. And finally, the study refers to the participation of the individuals themselves and their families in the process. The developed analysis allows us to propose strategies to improve the transition to adult life

Un estudio transversal sobre la percepción de la vitalidad etnolingüística en jóvenes y adultos de Catalunya = A cross-sectional study on ethnolinguistic vitality perception in young and adulthood people from Catalonia

El estudio utiliza un diseño transversal en el campo de la percepción de la vitalidad etnolingüística. Es el primero que compara la percepción de la vitalidad etnolingüística, así como los factores asociados, entre adultos jóvenes y adultos, en relación con los grupos castellanohablantes y catalanohablantes de la Comunidad Autónoma de Cataluña. Para ello, se aplicó el 'Cuestionario de vitalidad etnolingüística subjetiva' (CVS) a una muestra de 527 participantes, 268 jóvenes y 259 adultos, de los cuales se seleccionó una submuestra de individuos que tenían el catalán como lengua materna y se identificaban como catalanes (n=301). En ambas muestras se aduce una tendencia a descriminar favorablemente la vitalidad percibida por el grupo catalán, aspecto que se acentúa significativa en el grupo de jóvenes estudiados en relación al grupo de edad de los adultos. Se discuten los resultados según las repercusiones teóricas y pragmáticas de los estudios realizados en el ámbito de la comunicación intergrupal

Jóvenes que estuvieron en el sistema de protección social a la infancia : reflexiones a partir de una investigación realizada en Girona, España = Young people who were in the child protection system : reflections from a study done in Girona, Spain

Research on residential care is still scarce despite its high implementation in Spain. This article presents the results of a research using qualitative methods. The study analyses the situation experienced by young people who lived in foster care in the province of Girona (1994-2002) based on their opinions and perceptions expressed in a semi-structured interview. The results, clustered into subcategories, show lack of knowledge about the reasons why they needed foster care, if it was better being there than staying with their parents, and the lack of support for transition to adulthood. The study shows implications for children and youth policies, professional practice and research

¿Qué coincidencias y discrepancias tienen los jóvenes y sus padres ante los medios?

The results presented in this paper are from a research using a questionnaire about activities and evaluations of boys and girls in relation to different audio-visual media (television, computer, videoconsole, educative CD-Roms, Internet and computer and console games). Results show us that children information about any audio-visual media is systematically overestimated by parents. Generally, the media with more negative concordances is video-games, the one with more positive concordances is the computer and the one with more discrepancies between generations is TV

Sistema educativo e igualdad de oportunidades entre los jóvenes tutelados: estudios recientes en el Reino Unido

Educational system and equal opportunities for young people in care: Recent studies in the UK. Publications on research about formal educational itineraries of people who were cared for by the social protection public systems when they were children are scarce, and restricted to a few countries. In recent years, statistics from some European countries have been published, showing that the young people who were cared for are overrepresented in practically all the clusters of people that accumulate indicators of social disadvantage, and it has therefore been argued that they can be considered one of the groups of population with the highest risk for social exclusion. In the present review, the emergence of new data and research results in some European countries —particularly in the United Kingdom, where the fact that less than 5% of this population reaches university studies has been underlined— is tentatively contextualised. Although the extent to which current available data can be extrapolated to other contexts and countries is yet unclear, such results raise important challenges for social intervention and social policies, as well as for psychosocial research, in all countries of the European space

Geografías psicológicas de los recursos educativos

¿Qué recursos dispone un profesor, alumno, padre o escuela para optimizar los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje? El objetivo del articulo es presentar un modelo teórico que permita responder esta pregunta. Tradicionalmente los 'recursos educativos' -artefactos implicados en las actividades de enseñanza-aprendizaje- se han reducido a ciertos instrumentos como un manual o libro de texto, una libreta o una pizarra.Sin embargo, la psicología cultural advierte que nuestra geografia fisica (personas, objetos y simbolos de nuestro derredor) tiene también un valor psicológico y educativo. En base al modelo ecológico de Bronfenbrenner propone­ mos la existencia de cuatro tipos de recursos: los 'micro-recursos', los 'meso-recursos', los 'exo-recursos' y los 'macro-recursos'. Después de definir estos conceptos los ilustramos con ejemplos derivados de distintas experiencias y programas de investigación e intervención como el "funds of knowledge" ('fondos de conocimiento') de Arizona

¿Qué entienden los jóvenes universitarios por monogamia y sexo sin penetración, como estrategias preventivas de la transmisión sexual del virus del SIDA? = What university students understand by monogamy and sex without penetration as preventive strategies of sexual transmission of AIDS virus?

Monogamy and sex without penetration are behaviors recommended by the WHO to avoid AIDS virus sexual transmission. Seven hundred and fifty university students from 18 to 25 years (67.7% women) were surveyed and they were asked to give a maximum of three free definitions of the words monogamy and sex without penetration to prevent AIDS virus sexual transmission. Their participation was voluntary and anonymous. Although the majority of the answers was correct, there was a considerable percentage of wrong answers, either for monogamy (3.7% masturbation; 2.1% to have many partners; 0.9% homosexual relations), or for sex without penetration (20.5% oral sex; 1.1% anal coitus; 0.8% coitus without orgasm; 0.4% coitus interruptus). Some definitions or examples differ by gender. The amount of wrongs or incomplete answers put researchers on the alert about insufficient preventive knowledge in a population with a high educational level

A violência no imaginário dos agentes educativos

A violência não é um tema novo na literatura e sempre suscita amplos debates. Na realidade, ela faz parte da escola como instituição social, estando presente na experiência cotidiana tanto dos agentes educativos como na dos alunos, notadamente pela profunda desigualdade social existente em alguns grupos sociais na sociedade brasileira. Como a violência se desenvolve nas práticas e ações no processo educacional? A noção de violência é comumente relacionada à sua faceta mais visível, a das cenas dos crimes urbanos e assaltos, amplamente exploradas e difundidas pela imprensa. Porém, várias são as formas pelas quais ela se realiza. Dentre estas, as mais nocivas abrigam-se na legalizada e institucionalizada, quase invisíveis aos olhos do cidadão, que não sabe se defender contra elas. A ação dos agentes educativos é uma violência institucionalizada. Mas é preciso distinguir duas ações: a que violenta os cidadãos pela reprodução da desigualdade, e a que socializa e impõe regras coletivas. A ausência da ação socializadora pode desdobrar-se em uma violência maior, pela falta de uma ética da vida. Este artigo busca contribuir para o debate sobre a questão da violência, apresentando alguns aspectos observados nas ações e práticas de agentes educativos e no cotidiano escolar.
