A study with adolescents with delinquent behavior: impact of juvenile victimization and resilience on empathy. Estudos De Psicologia (campinas), 42, e210154. https://doi.org/10.1590/1982-0275202542e2101541982-0275http://hdl.handle.net/10400.26/62900Objective: This study aims to verify the relationship between victimization, empathy, and resilience in a sample of young delinquents, to analyze gender differences in resilience and empathy, and to explore the predictive value of these variables in empathy. Method: The sample comprised 41 individuals aged 14 to 19, including 23 young males and 18 young females. Results: The findings confirm a negative relationship between resilience and victimization, a positive correlation between empathy and resilience, and gender-based variations in resilience. This research shows that gender, age, victimization, and resilience are predictors of empathy in young delinquents. Conclusion: Our results contributed significantly to the understanding of victimization, resilience, and empathy in the context of juvenile delinquency.engEmpathyImpactJuvenile delinquencyJuvenile victimizationcontribution to journal10.1590/1982-0275202542e210154
