Abstract

En este estudio se ha investigado la implicación de la personalidad en los problemas de conducta durante la adolescencia. La muestra estaba compuesta por 264 adolescentes, 145 varones y 119 mujeres, entre 16 y 18 años de edad. Los adolescentes contestaron anónimamente a cuestionarios de personalidad y problemas de conducta. La aproximación centrada en personas permitió descubrir cuatro tipos de adolescentes, mediante análisis de conglomerados basados en seis puntuaciones sobre conductas disruptivas. Los problemas eran máximos en el tipo disruptivo, mientras que en el resiliente eran mucho más moderados. Las características de personalidad de los cuatro tipos presentan perfiles claramente diferenciables. La aproximación centrada en variables mostró, mediante análisis de regresión, que Neuroticismo y Psicoticismo en el modelo de Eysenck y Neuroticismo, Amabilidad y Responsabilidad en el modelo de los Cinco Factores, eran los principales predictores de las conductas disruptivas. Los resultados sugieren las características de personalidad han mostrado que pueden ser eficaces para entender y prevenir la aparición de conductas antisociales en los centros escolares.
