Resumen
GALAN-JIMENEZ, Jaime Sebastián F.. Exposure to violence in teenagers: Desensitization, legitimation and naturalization. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.14, n.1, pp.55-67. ISSN 1794-9998. https://doi.org/10.15332/s1794-9998.2018.0001.04.
The article shows an approach to the beliefs and ideas of young people who have been exposed to violence and the potential implications of this exposure, such as desensitization to violence. Method: content analysis of seven in-depth interviews with teenagers who had experienced violence. An axial open coding was performed. Results: we found categories of psychological, physical and sexual violence; normalization of violence, violence as a game, enjoying or liking violence, justification, status or hierarchy and as adaptation or defense. Discussion: desensitization to violence appears not only ass normalization and a source of pleasure, but also in explicit fun, which involves reduced prosociality.
