Abstract
Results of a qualitative research on school violence carried out in Chile are presented. Particularly, this paper presents the results regarding to the determinants of school violence according to the perception of the high school students, considered by their schools like aggressive or violent. Among the multiplicity of factors that young people establish as determinants of school violence, three broad categories are identified: (a) Antecedents, which would be contextual variables outside the specific context of violence in the school; (b) mediating factors, which refer to mediate determinants; and (c) triggers, which refer to immediate determinants, particularly of fights.
