This paper summarises the findings of research on adolescents in Spain. Its aim is to describe the general and differential behavioural patterns in the principal spheres of social life, such as the relationship between adolescents and their peer groups, the factors that lead to antisocial behaviour and, in general terms, their perception of social reality. The sample, from the Spanish population, consisted of 7580 subjects. Several relevant social and demographic variables have been taken into account, and a large number of questionnaires and scales have been used to measure the psychological and social dimensions under examination.
