Abstract
El presente trabajo nace de la necesidad de caracterizar el fenómeno de la victimización en la adolescencia a nivel del impacto y prevalencia. La revisión de la literatura efectuada sobre esta temática, ha permitido identificar diversas limitaciones que dificultan un conocimiento más profundo del tema. A pesar de las enumeras publicaciones sobre formas específicas de victimización, tanto a nivel nacional como internacional, se ha constatado una evidente escasez de estudios concernientes a la globalidad de las victimizaciones. Más allá de la falta de estudios, se ha verificado también la inexistencia de instrumentos validados y adaptados para evaluar esta problemática en la población portuguesa. Por todo esto, se pretende estudiar la sintomatología psicopatológica y resiliencia manifestadas por las víctimas y además identificar las tasas de prevalencia de victimización en dos muestras de adolescentes portugueses. Para Finkelhor (2008; 2011) la victimización interpersonal se refiere al daño causado a un individuo como consecuencia de una conducta contraria a las normas sociales establecidas y tiene como característica ser practicado por otro ser humano, lo que puede ampliar su efecto perjudicial. Siguiendo esta propuesta, importa percibir que tipo de victimizaciones sufren los individuos durante la adolescencia y que impacto representa en sus vidas. Se encuentra documentado en la literatura que los adolescentes, aparte de las victimizaciones que sufren los adultos, pueden verse sometidos a otras, específicas de este periodo del desarrollo (Finkelhor y Hashima, 2001). Además, en la práctica, las formas aisladas de victimización son muy difíciles de ocurrir, así que es fundamental un estudio comprensivo del fenómeno, o de otra manera se obtendrá una visión parcial acerca del mismo...
The present study is born from the need to characterize the phenomenon of victimization in adolescence at the level of impact and prevalence. Furthermore, the review of the literature on this subject has allowed the identification of several limitations that hinder a deeper understanding of the subject. Despite the numerous publications on specific forms of victimization, both nationally and internationally, there has been an evident shortage of studies concerning the totality of victimization. Beyond the lack of studies, there has also been a lack of validated and adapted instruments to evaluate this problem in the Portuguese population. For all this, the present study intends to study the psychopathological symptomatology and resilience manifested by the victims and also to identify the prevalence rates of victimization in two samples of Portuguese adolescents. According to Finkelhor (2008; 2011), interpersonal victimization refers to the damage caused to an individual as a result of behavior contrary to established social norms and has as a characteristic to be practiced by another human being, which can amplify its harmful effect. Following this proposal, it is important to perceive what type of victimization individuals suffer during adolescence and what impact it represents in their lives. It is documented in the literature that adolescents, apart from the victimizations suffered by adults, may be subject to others, specific to this period of development (Finkelhor and Hashima, 2001). In addition, in practice, isolated forms of victimization are very difficult to occur, so a comprehensive study of the phenomenon is essential, or otherwise a partial view will be gained...
