DOMINGUEZ DE LA OSSA, Elsy Mercedes. Family resources to face adversity of forced displacement in Colombia. Psicol. caribe [online]. 2018, vol.35, n.2, pp.145-155. ISSN 0123-417X.  https://doi.org/10.14482/psdc.35.2.8599.

This article presents the results of a study that aimed to analyze the emergence of family resources to face the adverse situation of forced displacement, conducted in the department of Sucre, Colombia, during the years 2012-2014. Originally, it suggested to determine relationships between parenting skills and Infants Resilient Capacity. Subsequently, we sought to understand the family resources that emerge in the midst of adversity. The results reveal correlations between parental skills and infants resilient capabilities, and the presence of family resources to manage the risk of displacement. A methodology of mixed character was set, based on a correlation design, and then the family narratives were used from the hermeneutical thinking of Paul Ricoeur. We managed to conceptualize some family managed resources such as links and networks, and shared leisure, which emerged from empirical data and may be useful for setting in motion future models of intervention to families at risk.

Palabras clave : forced displacement; parenting skills; infant resilience capacity; family resilience; community resources.
