XXXX and @entity308 in adolescents with hostile behaviour.

@entity1 @entity308 @entity148
INTRODUCTION: Adolescents go through a phase characterised by physical, mental, psychological and social changes which justify periods of hostile behaviours. The occurrence and intensity of these behaviours may correspond to a psychopathological condition that will affect their future lives. The aim of this research is to identify the socio-demographic and family background variables that influence hostile behaviours in adolescents and to analyse the influence of @entity308 and @entity148 in hostile behaviours in adolescents. METHODS: This is a quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional, descriptive, correlational study with epidemiological characteristics. The sample consists of 1890 adolescents, 863 (45.7%) @entity1 and 1027 (54.3%) @entity1 whose average age is 16.26 years. The data collection instrument includes the socio-demographic and family background and @entity148 , @entity308 and hostile behaviours in adolescence measurement scales: the State-Trait @entity148 Scale, the @entity308 Scale and the Buss-Durkee Hostility Inventory. RESULTS: We found that the prevalent group is between 17 and 21 years old (40.3%) 41.4% @entity1 and 39.4% @entity1 ; the highest percentage of the adolescents (37.8%) are in the 10th year of schooling; 50.7% live in the city, 70.0% live with their parents; the monthly household income is medium-high (56.7%) for (56.5%) @entity1 ; 3.5% of the adolescents exhibit @entity308 , mostly @entity1 who are 17 or older; @entity1 have higher levels of @entity148 -trait and @entity1 of @entity148 . CONCLUSIONS: We may conclude that only @entity308 has a relationship with hostile behaviours. It is higher in adolescents with these behaviours. The presence or absence of @entity148 is not related to the hostile behaviour in adolescents.
