Abstract

The present research project had the objective of determining if there was an influence of the role of gender in adolescents in conflict with the criminal law with socio-educational non-custodial measures of the province of Cotopaxi. For the realization of the same, the group chronic technique was applied due to its characteristics (complementation of other group techniques) for which it was possible to obtain the greatest amount of information about the gender role that the adolescents unconsciously acquired from their immediate group. they were expressed by means of stories and criteria, determining at the same time that the role of gender did influence the adolescents in conflict with the criminal law with socio-educational non-custodial measures. The present investigation involved 35 adolescents consisting of 27 men and 8 women who were summoned because of the nature of the crime committed: violation of privacy, contravention, theft, possession of drugs, robbery, violence against women and members of the nuclear family. It was evidenced that the gender role approach of adolescents responds to precepts of the patriarchal ideology where domestic activities, work activities, activities for free time, decision making and home control, stereotypes and subordination are clearly different in relation to the sex they have; causing at the same time a social pattern in the behavior of this group of people and their families. In addition, it was observed that the risk factor that had the greatest tendency of the group of people was the ignorance of their rights and obligations as children and as citizens.
