The MESSY and the Family Identification Test (FIT) were completed by 382 children (215 females, 167 males) from urban middle-class areas and favelas (slams) of Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Age rangedfrom 7 to 15 years (M=10.30; SD=2.24). Results from factor analysis yielded a four-factor model with good internal consistency. One-Way Anova analyzes described boys as having higher scores on Factor 1 than girls (Aggressiveness/Antisocial Behavior).Children from urban middle-class areas performed better on factor 2 (Social Skills/Assertiveness) than those from favelas. Socio-cultural implications of the results are discussed. 2005 artículo científico 0034-9690 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=28439207 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=284 Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology application/pdf Sociedad Interamericana de Psicología Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology (Puerto Rico) Num.2 Vol.39 |
