HERNANDEZ, Jonathan; CARDONA-ARANGO, Doris e SEGURA-CARDONA, Ángela M.. Construction and analysis of a social vulnerability index in young population. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.1, pp.403-412. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.16125.
The research aimed to explore the social vulnerability in the population between 15 and 24 years old; an index was designed using a factorial analysis technique with variables included in the Quality of Life Survey of the Municipality of Medellín, in 2014. It was identified that young people with high vulnerability were a primarily male population with a basic education level, identified as mestizos, indigenous or from afro-descendent and raizal communities and living at a socioeconomic level 2 (low). The study has limitations in inferring the results to cover all young people in the city of Medellín; however, it does provide useful information to identify the characteristics of highly vulnerable young people.
Authors key word: construction of index.
