This study explores the lives of Peruvian adolescents in a low-income human settlement outside of Lima. Twenty 12-17 year olds were asked to narrate their own life stories using the life history narrative research method. Holistic content analysis was coupled with a grounded-theory approach to explore these data. Intergenerational responsibility, family tensions, economic pressures, racism and violence emerged without prompting and dominated the narrators' life stories, underscoring the degree to which these adolescents lack access to the supportive individuals and structures that are key to positive adolescent development. The challenges faced by these and the other 5.8 million 10-19 year olds in Peru require increased attention to the role of families, peers and communities in ensuring that adolescents are able to maintain their well-being and achieve their future expectations.
本研究探讨了利马郊外一个低收入人类住区中秘鲁青少年的生活。采用生活史叙事研究方法，我们邀请了 20 名 12-17 岁的青少年讲述他们自己的生活故事。整体内容分析与扎根理论方法相结合，以探索这些数据。在没有提示的情况下，代际责任、家庭紧张、经济压力、种族主义和暴力出现了，并主导了叙述者的生活故事，突出了这些青少年在多大程度上无法获得对积极青少年发展至关重要的支持性个人和结构。这些青少年以及秘鲁其他 580 万 10-19 岁青少年所面临的挑战需要更多关注家庭、同伴和社区在确保青少年能够维持幸福感和实现未来期望方面的作用。
