RESUMO
Este artigo analisa as representações sociais de violência entre adolescentes de diferentes segmentos sociais e as práticas preventivas por eles utilizadas. Foram entrevistados 109 adolescentes de ambos os sexos, estudantes do Ensino Médio, dos quais 53 estudavam em escolas particulares de nível socioeconômico médio e alto e 56 em escolas públicas. As entrevistas foram analisadas com o auxílio do software ALCESTE, obtendo-se quatro classes de palavras que reúnem os discursos dos jovens sobre o sentido dado à violência e suas estratégias de prevenção. Não se constatou diferenças expressivas entre os dois grupos de adolescentes quanto à concepção de violência. Entendida como criminalidade que ocorre no espaço público, os adolescentes explicitaram como estratégias de enfrentamento da violência o afastamento de grupos, locais e horários supostamente ameaçadores.(AU)
