Intrafamily problems and their impact on the learning of elementary school students
Main Article Content
Abstract
The present study comprehensively reviews the scientific literature on intrafamily problems and their incidence on the learning of elementary school students. Under an exploratory qualitative approach, a systematic review of academic articles indexed in international databases was carried out. The results show that factors such as marital conflict, emotional neglect and domestic violence generate an environment of chronic stress that affects children's neurobiology, impairs working memory and emotional regulation, and leads to poor academic performance, lack of motivation and behavioral problems. In addition, it was found that these experiences weaken self-esteem and hinder social integration, perpetuating a cycle of educational exclusion. The conclusions underline the need for inter-institutional strategies that combine family intervention and psychoeducational support, as well as preventive programs that promote safe environments that favor the learning and integral development of minors.
