To do this, a representative sample of 43 students with these characteristics, 41 male, with an average age of 13.35 years (SD = 1.06) was selected, and compared their profile with a normal control group of students. The results showed that the disruptive students had higher average scores in most of the scales of the “Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-Adolescent” than in the Control Group. Moreover, disruptive students showed higher average scores on general syndromes of the “Youth self report” in comparison to the aforementioned Control Group. These results allow identifying and describing a psychopathological profile characteristic of this type of educative group, in order to establish and improve strategies and intervention programs. Future lines should conduct follow up longitudinal studies and analyze other risk markers, such as endophenotypes.</p><p> </p>}, number={1}, journal={Revista de Estudios e Investigación en Psicología y Educación}, author={Orrego, José Manuel and Paino, María Mercedes and Fonseca-Pedrero, Eduardo}, year={2016}, month={Mar.}, pages={19–27} }
