Abstract

Background:The Hostile behavior in children and adolescents is a problem of today. Several epidemiological studies reveal a primordial importance of parental relationship to the psychosocial development of the individual. Objectives: Determine the prevalence of hostile behavior in children and adolescents; identify the sociodemographic and family background variables that influence the hostile behavior in children and adolescents; examine how the perception against the parental conflict relates to the hostile behavior. Methodology: Quantitative study, non-experimental, transverse, descriptive and correlational and explanatory, involving a sample of 2728 children and adolescents (mean age = 14.73 and Dp = +/- 2.3). The data was gathered through a questionnaire that evolves dimensions such as Sociodemographyc Data, Family Context Data, Children’s Perception of Interparental Conflict Scale, Buss-Durkee Hostility Inventory. The data was processed with the SPSS program (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) version 24 for Windows. Results:The greater perception against the Conflict Interparental, the greater the Hostile behavior in children and adolescents. The Conflict Interparental influences Hostile behaviour in young people. If the Hostile behaviour in children and adolescents is recurrent and intense, exist a potential risk  to will be an adult with antisocial behaviours. Conclusion:With the preparation of this study we intend to disseminate the results obtained are an added value to the quality of life of teenagers, trying to reduce the potential risks to the problem of Hostile Behavior.
