Abstract

The antisocial behavior is determined by individual and contextual variables that may act as risk factors. One of these factors is the use of electronic mass media, specially the use of the newest technologies, even when its effects are not exclusive as shown by diverse studies. Data for this study were obtained from a sample of 331 young of both sexes, with ages between 14 and 20 years. This study intends, with a model of neural networks, to verify the predictive value of variables of personality, motivation, and consumption of electronic media, in the development of antisocial behavior. Another objective was to study the role that every variable has on the construction of the model that allows predicting the antisocial acts.
