AMAVIZCA RUIZ, Jesús Roberto et al. Family Problems and Migration of Adolescents. Acta de investigación psicol [online]. 2016, vol.6, n.1, pp.2249-2261. ISSN 2007-4719.  https://doi.org/10.1016/s2007-4719(16)30047-3.

This article deals with family issues, its relationship between the migration of parents and the adolescents’ desire to migrate or not in the rural community of San Mateo Ozolco in state of Puebla, Mexico. Research began with an exploratory study, through interviews with 10 key informants; the Family Problems Instrument was applied to 121 middle and high school students. The population was divided for further detail, considering the intentions to migrate or not, allowing a differentiation between families and their relationship to family problems. Also, the population was divided into children of migrant and non migrant parents to see their correspondence with family problems. The results indicate that the Family Negative interaction and the Family Aggression are influencing the migration decision of adolescents.
