PESSOA, Alex Sandro Gomes  e  COIMBRA, Renata Maria. Factors within the Context of Adolescents Involved in Drug Trafficking. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.1, pp.119-141. ISSN 1808-4281.  https://doi.org/10.12957/epp.2020.50793.

This article aimed to evaluate the risk factors present in the context of adolescents with the history of involvement in drug trafficking. The fieldwork was qualitative in nature, exploratory and cross-cut. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 8 adolescents with an intense involvement in drug trafficking. Questions were based on different dimensions of adolescents' lives, including risk factors, as well as the trajectory of involvement in drug trafficking. Data suggest that risk factors in adolescents' lives have three dimensions: before, during, and after involvement in drug trafficking. Findings showed that the involvement drug trafficking consolidates a set of variables that represents damage to the psychosocial development of adolescents. In addition to the social repercussions discussed in this manuscript, illustrated by the stigma they receive, they depend financially (whether for leisure activities, consumption or family support) and psychologically (to maintain acquired social status and even consume psychoactive substances) drug trafficking.

Palavras-chave : adolescence; drug trafficking; risk factors; psychology.
