abstract="This study addresses the epidemiology of risk factors and personality traits in adolescents of 16 and 17 years of age, charged with homicide, with a focus on analyzing psychic functioning, socio-demographic variables and family constitution. This is a longitudinal, retrospective and inferential study of the psychiatric assessments of several subjects who were interviewed in the Family Courts of the province of Mendoza. The hypothesis states that adolescents who have violent behavior, impulsivity and diffculty in complying with rules, do so as a result of having been victims of violence in an inadequate family environment. The statistical method employed was ANOVA 2 and sign test for a statically signifcant p<0.05. The study of different variables shows low self-criticism and behavioral disorders in childhood among the subjects.<p /> <p>Language: es</p>",
