This research is a study on the judgment about honor in adolescents under social and educative confinement measures. The sample consisted of 30 male teenagers, aged between 16 and 17 years old, who at the time of data collection were inmates in a unit of the Instituto de Atendimento Socioeducativo do Espírito Santo (Iases) in the metropolitan region of Vitória / ES. We conducted individual interviews, according to the clinical method proposed by Piaget (1926/sd, 1932/1994). Through the results, we note that in respect of: (1) characterization of the participants, the majority of teenagers is studying at the institution, mostly, in the final grades of elementary school. With respect to offenses committed, which culminated in their admission into the institution, we found that the interns mentioned, among others: 'robbery or theft', 'drug dealing or usage or association', 'murder or robbery' and 'attempt to murder or attempted robbery ', (2) admiration and non-admiration about themselves, the data allows us to conclude that respondents admire, with higher incidence, 'patience / willpower', the 'respect for people' and 'kindness / generosity', besides, we saw that the non-admirations that the young most often cited are 'antisocial behavior in interpersonal relationships', the 'action-related crime', the 'absence of self-control' and 'self-sufficiency', (3) representation regarding the judgment of society on themselves, the participants pondered to be considered a person who, among other things, 'breaches', ‘won’t change his/her life', 'has a bad quality', 'has a good quality' , 'is a danger to society' and 'will change his/her life', or whose 'future is death', (4) to the honor itself, the young people exemplified it by 'reputation', 'improvement in interpersonal relations', 'hard work', among others. In turn, when conceptualizing honor, they showed mainly responses of 'reputation', 'right action' and 'kindness / generosity'. Finally, most teenagers claim to be honored, justifying it by the following contents, among others: 'change of life', 'action related to crime', 'kindness / generosity' and 'improvement in interpersonal relations'. It should be noted that in our results there is a predominance of responses and justifications related to morality and therefore the concept 'with honor' (La Taille, 2002b). Indeed, we stress that this work contributes to general understanding of the universe of adolescents under social and educative confinement measures, showing data that could lead practices, reflections and other research. Finally, by giving information about the honor of these young people, we’re helping, academically and socially, to achieve a 'good living' (La Taille, 2006). For us, this is the path we should build, socially, with the others and each other
