Conduct disorders: risk factors from school environment – review

Summary/Abstract: Children’s behavior is the result of a dynamic relationship that exists between the personal characteristics of the child and his environment, which is interwoven with the action of many risk and protective factors. Thanks to a large number of empirical papers to date, a significant number of risk factors for the development of conduct disorders in childhood and adolescence have been identified. As the number of risk factors increases in the individual, family and school context, unfortunately, the likelihood of developing a disorder in a child also increases. In order to plan preventive and early intervention activities, both in school and in the wider community, special attention needs to be paid to identifying and understanding risk factors from the school context (for example, poor academic performance, peer rejection, inadequate school climate, poorly developed academic skills of students, etc.) with simultaneous knowledge and strengthening of protection factors. It seems that in our society, schools are not yet recognized as a relevant link in the system of prevention of conduct disorders, and therefore we need more papers which research the relationship between components of the school system and problems in student behavior. In this paper, we have tried to give a review of the existing risk factors from the school context responsible for the development of conduct disorders in childhood and youth.
