The present study is carried out with the purpose of describing and comparing the results between 85 adolescents who reside in an area considered to be of high psychosocial risk in the city of Callao (Peru) with a group of 82 adolescents with similar sociodemographic characteristics who reside in an area not considered to be of high psychosocial risk of the same jurisdiction. The methodology is descriptive - comparative and has a non-experimental, cross-sectional design. In this case, the Escala de Afecto and the Escala de Normas y Exigencias and the Escala de Violencia en el Barrio were used. The results allow us to establish that adolescents in a zone of high psychosocial risk express, from their perception, that their parents prioritize affection, interest and communication, and they attribute this practice especially to the maternal object. Similarly, they also refer, that their parents resort to dialog when they must monitor or demand compliance with their limits; however, compared to the control group, they evaluate their parents more authoritatively.
