这项研究探索了秘鲁青少年在利马郊外一个低收入人类聚居地的生活。20名12-17岁的青少年被要求使用生活史叙事研究方法讲述自己的生活故事。全面的内容分析与扎根的理论方法相结合来探索这些数据。代际责任、家庭紧张、经济压力、种族主义和暴力在没有促使并主导叙述者的人生故事的情况下出现,突显了这些青少年在多大程度上无法接触到对青少年积极发展至关重要的支持性个人和结构。这些人以及秘鲁其他580万10-19岁青少年所面临的挑战要求更多地关注家庭、同龄人和社区在确保青少年能够维持其福祉和实现其未来期望方面的作用。(C)2010年,青少年服务专业人员协会。爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
This study explores the lives of Peruvian adolescents in a low-income human settlement outside of Lima. Twenty 12-17 year olds were asked to narrate their own life stories using the life history narrative research method. Holistic content analysis was coupled with a grounded-theory approach to explore these data. Intergenerational responsibility, family tensions, economic pressures, racism and violence emerged without prompting and dominated the narrators' life stories, underscoring the degree to which these adolescents lack access to the supportive individuals and structures that are key to positive adolescent development. The challenges faced by these and the other 5.8 million 10-19 year olds in Peru require increased attention to the role of families, peers and communities in ensuring that adolescents are able to maintain their well-being and achieve their future expectations.
