The present study aims to analyse the relationship between family environment and school environment as perceived by the adolescent, examining the role that particular individual factors (as the empathic skill, the attitude to institutional authority and the violent behaviour at school) played in that association. The sample is composed of 1319 adolescents aged from 11 to 16 years old, and studying in seven secondary schools in the Valencian Community.
A structural equation model was conducted to analyse the data. The results indicate that family environment is indirectly related to social environment in the classroom through the following links: quality of family environment showed a direct relationship with the empathy development, attitude towards teachers and school as figures and institution of formal authority, as well as with the adolescent�s violent behaviour at school, which in turn contributed to shape their perception of school environment.
