CARDONA ISAZA, Arcadio de Jesús. Factors Implied in the Academic Failure of Adolescents with Criminal Conducts. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2020, vol.62, n.2, pp.219-232.  Epub 26-Nov-2020. ISSN 1794-3108.

Colombia is implementing the Adolescent Responsibility System educational service. In this context, this article describes the academic characteristics of adolescents with criminal conducts, determines the relationships between academic factors and analyzes which ones affect academic failure. A predictive, cross-sectional study was developed to do so, in which 248 adolescents from Bogotá and Cundinamarca participated. 85.5% were male and 14.5% were female, between 14 and 20 years of age (A=16.72, S.D.= 1,128). The results show high levels of academic failure and moderate relationships between academic factors and academic failure. The academic variables that best helped predict academic failure were low performance, deficiencies in school participation opportunities, rewards for school participation and social skills. These findings' implications was a topic of discussion.
