Ferreira, Inês A.; Silva, Carla S.; Neves, Leonor; Guichard, Sofia; Aguiar, Cecília – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2021

Literature on home SBR in Portugal is scarce (Araújo & Costa, 2015; Peixoto et al., 2008), and studies on its predictors in families at socioeconomic risk or Roma families in…
