Efectos de la violencia intrafamiliar en las habilidades sociales en adolescentes estudiantes de una unidad educativa fiscal del cantón Pedro Moncayo, Ecuador.

Abstract

The present research aims to analyze the impact of domestic violence on adolescents in the Pedro Moncayo canton's social skills, with the goal of proposing strategies to strengthen them. This study used a mixed-method, descriptive, cross-sectional approach, and a non-experimental method. A survey was administered to students at a school in Pedro Moncayo and interviews were conducted with teachers, DECE staff, and students. The main results indicate that adolescents choose to hide situations of violence perpetrated by their parents. This is due to a combination of fear, apprehension, emotional dependence, and lack of maternal support, all of which reinforce and naturalize violence within the family structure
