Resumen

Este estudio analiza las relaciones entre la percepción de la calidad del clima familiar y la victimización en centros educativos teniendo en cuenta el papel que la autoestima, la sintomatología depresiva y el género de los adolescentes juega en estas relaciones. Las asociaciones entre las variables se han analizado en una muestra constituida por 1884 adolescentes (52% chicos y 48% chicas) escolarizados en centros educativos de secundaria con edades comprendidas entre los 11 y los 17 años (M = 13.7, DT = 1.4). Los resultados del análisis de un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales muestran, como indican los efectos totales, que la expresividad y el conflicto familiar están significativamente relacionados con la victimización escolar. Sin embargo, mientras que el conflicto familiar está directamente relacionado con la victimización, la asociación de la expresividad familiar con la victimización escolar ocurre de forma indirecta a través de un efecto sobre la autoestima y la sinto- matología depresiva de los adolescentes. Se realizaron análisis multigrupo que no mostraron diferencias significativas entre chicos y chicas, por tanto el modelo general propuesto es adecuado para ambos géneros. Se discuten los resultados obtenidos y sus implicaciones.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the relationships between the perception of the quality of the family environment and school victimisation in educational centres taking into account the role played by adolescents' self-esteem, depressive symptomatology and gender. The associations between variables were analysed in a sample of 1,884 adolescents (52%o boys and 48% girls), aged from 11 to 17 years (M = 13.7, SD = 1.4). The results of structural equation modelling analyses performed showed that family conflict and expressivity were significantly related to school victimisation, as indicated by the total effects found. However, whereas family conflict was directly related to victimisation, family expressivity was indirectly related to school victimisation through adolescents' self-esteem and depressive symptoms. Multigroup analyses did not show significant differences between boys and girls. The results obtained and their implications are discussed.
