Resumo: This study aimed to characterize a group of female juvenile offenders emphasizing differences from male and female juvenile offenders with clinical problems. Participants were 90 adolescents from 13 to 18 years old, who belonged to three groups: female juvenile offenders, male juvenile offenders and female with clinical problems. Participants were evaluated through the Millon Adolescent Clinical Inventory (MACI) and the Escalation and Risk Record Card (FER) using a descriptive correlational design. Results showed that females perpetrated fewer and less severe offences than did males; however, they present more risk factors. The female personality profile revealed an active, unruly style, similar to males' and more severe emotional disorders than those found in females with clinical problems. This female personality profile is congruent with international studies about juvenile delinquency and relevant for guiding specialized intervention programs for female young offenders.

El objetivo del presente estudio fue caracterizar a un grupo de adolescentes infractoras de ley diferenciándolas de varones infractores y de niñas adolescentes con problemas clínicos. Participaron 90 adolescentes de 13 a 18 años pertenecientes a tres grupos: mujeres infractoras, hombres infractores y mujeres con problemas clínicos. Ellos fueron evaluados con el Inventario Clínico para Adolescentes de Millon (MACI) y la Ficha de Escalada y Riesgo (FER) usando un diseño descriptivo correlacional. Se encontró que las adolescentes infractoras cometen menos delitos y de menor gravedad que los varones, pero presentan más condiciones de riesgo. Su perfil de personalidad muestra un estilo trasgresor activo, compatible con el de los varones y alteraciones emocionales más graves que las encontradas en las adolescentes con manifestaciones clínicas. El perfil obtenido es congruente con los antecedentes internacionales sobre delincuencia juvenil y relevante para orientar programas de intervención especializada para adolescentes infractoras de ley. O objetivo deste estudo foi caracterizar um grupo de adolescentes do sexo feminino infratores da lei enfatizando suas diferenças em relação a jovens do sexo masculino infratores e meninas com problemas clínicos. Participaram 90 adolescentes, entre 13 e 18 anos, pertencentes a três grupos: meninas infratoras, meninos infratores e meninas com problemas clínicos. Os participantes foram avaliados conforme o Inventário Clínico para Adolescentes de Millon (MACI) e Ficha de Escalada e Risco (FER), a partir de um desenho descritivo correlacional. Os resultados indicam que as adolescentes infratoras cometem menos delitos e de menor gravidade que os jovens, mas apresentam maiores condições de risco. O seu perfil de personalidade mostra um estilo transgressor ativo, igual ao encontrado nos jovens meninos, e alterações emocionais mais graves que as encontradas nas adolescentes com manifestações clínicas. Este perfil é compatível com os antecedentes internacionais sobre delinquência juvenil e relevante para orientar a intervenção especializada. Universidade de São Paulo.
