Resumo: The objective of this study was to estimate the ratio of resilient youth and compare this to youth with aggressive behavior, and to youth who also exhibit sexually risky behavior and drug use. A cross-section study of a representative sample of people between aged between 12 and 60 who are residents of Medellin, Colombia, and its metropolitan area (N = 4,654) was employed using probabilistic multi-stage sampling. Youth between 14 and 26 years old were selected for the present analysis (n = 1,780). The proportion of resilient youth is 22.9%, of aggressors is 11.3%, and that of youth with other risky conduct is 65.8%. The high ratio of resilient youth calls for a reorientation of public policy toward prevention and control of violence, prioritizing the promotion of resilient behavior instead of continuing with tertiary prevention actions.

Estudio transversal en una muestra representativa de personas entre los 12 a 60 años, habitantes de Medellín, Colombia, y el área metropolitana (N = 4.654). Muestreo probabilístico polietápico. Se seleccionaron los jóvenes entre 14-26 años para el presente análisis (n = 1.780). La proporción de jóvenes resilientes es de un 22,9%, la de agresores un 11,3%, la de jóvenes con otras conductas de riesgo es de un 65,8%. La alta proporción de jóvenes resilientes obliga a reorientar las políticas públicas de la prevención terciaria y el control de la violencia a la promoción de las conductas resilientes y al desarrollo positivo de los niños y jóvenes en la sociedad.Os objetivos foram estimar a proporção de jovens resistentes e compará-la com jovens com condutas agressivas, e jovens que também apresentam comportamento sexual de risco e uso de drogas. Estudo transversal de uma amostra representativa de pessoas com idades entre 12 e 60 anos, habitantes de Medellín e sua área metropolitana, na Colômbia (N = 4.654), foi utilizado a partir de amostragem probabilística multiestágio. Jovens entre 14 e 26 anos foram selecionados para a presente análise (n = 1.780). A proporção de jovens resistentes foi de 22,9%, de agressores 11,3%, e de jovens com conduta de risco foi de 65,8%. A alta proporção de jovens resistentes força uma reorientação das políticas públicas para a prevenção e controle da violência, privilegiando a promoção de condutas de resistência ao invés de continuar com ações de prevenção terciária.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2013-11-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5321Reports in Public Health; Vol. 29 No. 11 (2013): NovemberCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 29 n. 11 (2013): Novembro1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5321/10929https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5321/10930Duque, Luis F.Montoya, Nilton E.Restrepo, Alexandrainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:28:40Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/5321Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:06:07.889984Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
