          Abstract

          O presente estudo buscou investigar evidências de validade de critério e precisão do Inventário de Resolução de Problemas Sociais-Revisado: Forma Abreviada (SPSI-R:FA) entre adolescentes infratores (n=38) e não-infratores (n=38), considerando o uso no contexto brasileiro. A pesquisa foi realizada em dois locais distintos: em uma instituição destinada ao atendimento de adolescentes em conflito com a lei e em uma escola estadual. O instrumento utilizado foi o Inventário de Resolução de Problemas Sociais - Revisado: Forma Abreviada (SPSI-R:FA). Os resultados mostraram que o instrumento foi capaz de discriminar populações de infratores e não infratores. O desenvolvimento de instrumentos específicos para essa população se mostra relevante uma vez que o número de pesquisas voltadas à intervenção e mensuração do ato infracional, apesar dos esforços de estudiosos, ainda é reduzido no Brasil.

          This study was aimed at investigating the Portuguese adaptation of the Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised (SPSI-R:S), in terms of its criteria validity and precision among young offenders (n=38) and non-offenders (n=38), in Brazil. The study was conducted in two different locations: a Young Offenders Center, and at a public school. The instrument used to assess the study was the Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised (SPSI-R:S). The results showed that the instrument was able to discriminate young offenders from the non-offender population. The development of specific instruments for this population is much needed, as the number of intervention and measurement studies of offending acts, in spite of efforts by researchers, is still reduced in Brazil.

              Development of juvenile aggression and violence. Some common misconceptions and controversies.

              This article addresses 5 misconceptions and controversies concerning the development of aggression and violence: (a) the misconception that high stability coefficients of aggression over time imply that discontinuity of aggression from childhood to early adulthood is negligible; (b) the misconception that all serious forms of violence have an origin in aggression during early childhood; (c) the controversy about whether a single pathway or multiple pathways best represent individuals' development of antisocial behavior, including violence; (d) the controversy about whether causes of violence are similar to the causes of property offending; and (e) the assumption that the development of violence in women is very similar to that in men. Each of the points is discussed against empirical findings. Theoretical, research, and applied implications of the 5 points are discussed.
