While the negative impact of extensive exposure to community violence and armed conflict is known, less emphasis has been focused on outcomes supportive of resilience. It is critical to begin exploring these constructs to both promote healing from decades-long conflict and to inform targeted interventions that focus on positive youth development in contexts of adversity. This study thus utilized a person-centered approach to estimate violence exposure profiles among 3,443 Colombian youth to explore what demographic covariates and positive youth development outcomes, such as school engagement, hope, goals, social competence, future expectations, and barriers to education were associated with each violence exposure profile. Four profiles emerged: a low exposure profile, a high community violence profile, a some combined exposure profile, and a high combined exposure profile, each with various levels of community violence witnessing and victimization as well as armed conflict exposure. Demographic covariance results showed older, urban, male youth were more likely to be in the high violence exposure profiles compared to the low exposure group. Youth in the high combined exposure profile were more likely to have lower hope, educational expectations, and social competence compared to the low exposure group. Findings highlight that a person-centered approach provides a more multidimensional view of adolescent violence exposure. Demographic differences suggested the importance of tailoring violence prevention initiatives to the local context. Finally, results concerning positive youth development outcomes suggest that resiliency-oriented constructs, which can be instrumental toward youth’s postwar healing and growth, should be emphasized among populations who experience high levels of co-occurring exposure.

以人为本的战后哥伦比亚青年暴力暴露方法:人口协变量和积极的青年发展成果

虽然广泛暴露于社区暴力和武装冲突的负面影响是众所周知的,但较少关注支持复原力的结果。至关重要的是开始探索这些结构,以促进从长达数十年的冲突中恢复过来,并为在逆境中专注于积极青年发展的有针对性的干预措施提供信息。因此,本研究采用以人为本的方法来估计 3,443 名哥伦比亚青年的暴力暴露概况,以探索哪些人口学协变量与积极的青年发展成果(例如学校参与、希望、目标、社会能力、未来期望和教育障碍)相关联每个暴力暴露档案。出现了四个档案:低曝光档案,高社区暴力档案,一些综合曝光档案,和高综合曝光率,每一个都有不同程度的社区暴力目击和受害以及武装冲突曝光。人口统计协方差结果显示,与低暴露组相比,年龄较大的城市男性青年更有可能处于高暴力暴露状态。与低暴露组相比,高综合暴露组的青年更有可能有较低的希望、教育期望和社会能力。研究结果强调,以人为本的方法为青少年暴力暴露提供了更加多维的视角。人口差异表明根据当地情况调整暴力预防举措的重要性。最后,关于积极的青年发展成果的结果表明,以弹性为导向的结构,
