ORIGIN AND DYNAMICS OF SCHOOL VIOLENCE IN CHILE BY ATTRIBUTION OF ITS PROTAGONISTS

Abstract

This article presents part of the outcome of a hermeneutic phenomenological research, at a descriptiveexplanatory level. Researchers investigated the way in which students use and transform their school
environment through the manipulation of their mood, along with the appreciations and images that they build
from the association of specific environmental externalities highly related to them, which they operationalize
and apply for the interaction with peers; succeeded in describing the meanings, representations and
experiences of students within the facility, and the factors related to their aggressive behavior; and responds
the following questions: what is the process that gives rise to violence in schools like; what does it mean for
the student to act aggressively in their school environment; and what are the factors associated with
aggressive behavior.
