Résumé
Dans cette étude, nous examinons les situations scolaires et sociales ainsi que l’ajustement des jeunes ayant présenté des problèmes extériorisés au secondaire, au moment de la transition à la vie adulte. Les résultats obtenus auprès d’un échantillon de 93 jeunes ayant présenté des problèmes extériorisés et de 93 jeunes du groupe témoin montrent que, de façon générale, les premiers ont des situations et un ajustement comparables aux jeunes du groupe témoin, à l’exception des mesures relatives aux comportements délinquants. Les comparaisons en fonction du genre, à l’intérieur du groupe ayant présenté des problèmes extériorisés, révèlent un ajustement plus difficile chez les filles.
Mots clés:
- transition à la vie adulte,
- problèmes de comportement extériorisés,
- genre,
- ajustement,
- situations scolaires et sociales
Summary
This article describes both school and social situations as well as the adjustment during transition to adulthood of youths who had displayed externalized problem behaviours in their high school years. Results show that when compared to a control group of youths (N = 93) those with problem behaviours (N = 93) have similar situations with regards to employment, schooling and residential arrangements. However, they still show more delinquent behaviours than their counterparts. Significant differences arise when gender is compared within the behaviour problem group. Girls demonstrate more difficult adjustment problems both internalized and externalized than boys.
Key words:
- transition to adulthood,
- externalized behaviour problems,
- gender,
- adjustment,
- demographic indicators
Resumen
En este estudio, examinamos las situaciones escolares y sociales así como el ajuste de los jóvenes que presentaron problemas exteriorizados en la secundaria, al momento de la transición a la vida adulta. Los resultados conseguidos con una muestra de 93 jóvenes que presentaron problemas exteriorizados y de 93 jóvenes del grupo muestra indican que, de manera general, los primeros viven unas situaciones y un ajuste comparables a los jóvenes del grupo muestra, a la excepción de las medidas relacionadas con los comportamientos delincuentes. Las comparaciones hechas según el género, dentro del grupo que presentó problemas exteriorizados, revelan un ajuste más difícil por parte de las niñas.
