| description | The highest prevalence of antinormative behaviors occurs in adolescence. Parenting practices influence directly on the maintenance or desistance of these behaviors. This paper explores the psychometric properties of the Adolescent Family Process scale in a group of 301 teenagers from Córdoba (Argentine), 27% of them with criminal records. The scale is frequently used in criminological studies for the measurement of the relationship between parenting practices and the antinormative behavior of teenagers. In a general way, the scale proved to be valid and reliable for the study of parenting practices in this population. Internal consistency rates were adequate and criterion validity analysis showed that different types of antinormative behavior are negatively associated with parental practices such as monitoring, communication and approval, and positively correlated with conflict between parents and children. However, exploratory factor analysis (principal axes) indicated a five factorial structure different from those purposed in the original scale. The paternal and maternal practices scales showed differences in the factorial structure. Theoretical and technical implications of findings are discussed. |

Es en la adolescencia cuando se registra la mayor prevalencia de comportamientos antinormativos. Las prácticas parentales influyen de manera directa sobre el mantenimiento o desistencia de estas conductas en los hijos adolescentes. Este artículo explora las propiedades psicométricas de la escala Adolescent Family Process en un grupo de 301 adolescentes de Córdoba (Argentina), 27% de ellos con antecedentes delictivos. Esta herramienta se utiliza frecuentemente en estudios criminológicos para la medición de la relación entre las prácticas parentales y el comportamiento antinormativo de los adolescentes. De manera general, la escala que aquí se analiza resultó válida y fiable para el estudio de las prácticas parentales en esta población. Los índices de consistencia interna resultaron adecuados y los análisis de validez de criterio indicaron que distintos tipos de comportamiento antinormativo se asocian negativamente con prácticas parentales como el monitoreo, la comunicación y la aprobación, y positivamente con el conflicto entre padres e hijos. No obstante, los análisis factoriales exploratorios mediante ejes principales indicaron una estructura factorial de cinco factores diferente a la propuesta en la escala original. También las escalas de prácticas paternas y maternas mostraron diferencias en la estructura factorial. Se discuten las implicaciones teóricas y técnicas de estos hallazgos.
