摘要:One transeccional quantitative study was conducted to establish the variables related to the family that differentiate one group of students who reported violent behavior toward peers at school, versus those who do not report such behaviors. Participated in the study 937 students from ten public high schools in the state, which were divided into two groups according to whether reported or not carry out violent behaviors toward their peers at school. The results showed that family variables such as socioeconomic status, family adjustment, the level of coexistence and conflict differed to both groups of students, which demonstrates the importance of studying the family context for understanding the violent behavior of adolescents within schools
