Managing family confl ict and resilience. Results of a universal socio-educative family drugs prevention program developed in school settings

Abstract

This paper assesses changes in family confl ict and resilience among families participating in a socio-educative short universal drug prevention program (PCF-U 11-14). A pre-post test quasi experimental design with control and experimental groups was implemented with 275 families. The work addresses the convenience of family training in social and parenting skills to strengthen families' capacity to cope with diffi culties and boosting family cohesion, but it also highlights the need to research deeper into the factors that affect parent and adolescent confl ict to create new training strategies for families.
