Abstract(s)
A presente tese foca-se na violĂȘncia e consumo de drogas nas escolas da cidade do Porto. O consumo de drogas, a violĂȘncia e a delinquĂȘncia juvenil, tem vindo a preocupar a sociedade, dai a necessidade de compreender que a influĂȘncia tĂȘm estes comportamentos um nos outros. Mais concretamente, este estudo tem como objetivos a obtenção de um conhecimento mais aprofundado sobre o fenĂłmeno do consumo de drogas e do comportamento violento em adolescentes na cidade do Porto. Este Ă© um estudo de autorrelato, uma vez que utiliza o questionĂĄrio International Self-Report Delinquency Study. No mesmo participam 560 estudantes, com idades compreendidas entre os 12 e os 18 anos. Quanto aos resultados da amostra, no que respeita as diferenças de gĂ©nero e consumo nĂŁo hĂĄ diferenças estatisticamente significativas, jĂĄ no que se refere a idade nota-se um aumento gradual do consumo de drogas, atingindo o seu pico aos 17 anos e logo de seguida um decrĂ©scimo acentuado do mesmo. Uma vez comparado o comportamento impulsivo e o consumo de drogas obteve-se resultados estatisticamente significativos, assim como o consumo de drogas e a associação com um grupo de pares que pratica atos ilegais. Comprovando assim o que a literatura nos diz quanto aos fatores de risco.
This thesis focuses on violence and drug use in the Porto's Schools. Drug use, violence and adolescent delinquency, has been concerning the society, therefore the need of understanding how these behaviours have a significant influence each other. Particu-larly, this case study aims to obtain a deeper understanding of the occurrence of drug use and violent behaviour in adolescents in the city of Porto. This is a self-reported study, since it uses the International Questionnaire Self-Report Delinquency Study. 560 students participated on this study, between the age of 12 and 18 years old. As to the results of the sample, when looking at the gender and drug use there is not a significant statistically difference, while on the matter of the age there is a gradual increase in drug consumption, reaching its peak at 17 and shortly thereafter a sharp decrease of the same. Once compared impulsive behaviours and drug use was obtained statistically significant results, as well as drug use and association with a group of peers who practices illegal acts. Thus proving what the literature tells us about the risk factors.
