The objectives of this study are to analyze the attitudes of young people to offenders situations in family context according to gender, religious belief and family social climate and, to study the predictive power of those variables on attitudes toward offenders. Participants were 230 young (mean age = 21.2), 130 women and 100 men who completed the CASA-F Questionnaire (Moreno & Pereyra, 2000) and the Family Social Climate Scale (Moss, Moss, & Trickett, 1995). We obtained differences in attitude towards offenders in terms of gender and religious belief and a significant relation between prosocial attitudes towards offenders and family social climate. Finally, multiple regression analysis confirmed the predictive ability of gender, religious belief and the family social climate on prosocial attitudes of forgiveness and explanation.

Palabras clave : attitudes; offenders; family social climate; religious beliefs; forgiveness.
