The present study was carried out with the aim to analize the importance of family routines and rituals which are assumed as specific indicators of psychosocial risk. Specifically, symbolic, communicative and regulatory aspects of these routines and rituals where analized. The sample comprises a total of 135 preadolescent divided into two groups: one of secondary school students (control group) and the second composed of subjects defined «at risk» (experimental group). The subjects filled in two questionnaires testing 28 family routines and 7 family rituals. The main results concern the identification of types of routines and rituals that qualify the family environment of the two groups and that can function as protective factors even in conditions characterized by a low degree of family communication.
La presente ricerca ha come oggetto d’indagine le routine e i rituali familiari assunti quali specifici indicatori di rischio psicosociale. In particolare vengono analizzati gli aspetti simbolici, comunicativi e regolatori che questi elementi della vita familiare assumono all’interno di due gruppi di soggetti preadolescenti, uno composto da ragazzi definiti «a rischio» e uno di controllo. Gli strumenti utilizzati hanno reso possibile l’individuazione di specifiche configurazioni che caratterizzano la fisionomia dei climi familiari in cui vivono i due gruppi di soggetti, permettendo anche di identificare alcuni aspetti delle routine e dei rituali che svolgono una funzione protettiva anche in situazioni caratterizzate da una scarsa comunicazione familiare.

Abstract
The present study was carried out with the aim to analize the importance of family routines and rituals which are assumed as specific indicators of psychosocial risk. Specifically, symbolic, communicative and regulatory aspects of these routines and rituals where analized. The sample comprises a total of 135 preadolescent divided into two groups: one of secondary school students (control group) and the second composed of subjects defined «at risk» (experimental group). The subjects filled in two questionnaires testing 28 family routines and 7 family rituals. The main results concern the identification of types of routines and rituals that qualify the family environment of the two groups and that can function as protective factors even in conditions characterized by a low degree of family communication.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
