Transgression is one of the main problems in Peru, based on social thought and expressed in a wide spectrum of transgressive behavior, which in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic could have endangered the health of the country. For this reason, it is considered important to know the psychosocial elements that form the social representations associated with it, in order to obtain a better understanding of the problem. The objective of the study was to identify the elements that make up the social representation that middle-class youth have regarding the transgression of the rules in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in Lima. The design was qualitative from a phenomenological methodology with an inductive logic, carrying out four focus groups of 3 participants each. A total of 6 female and 6 male young adults of medium and high socioeconomic level intentionally selected participated. Two types of violations were identified: necessary violations, and violations that put the health of others at risk, which vary in severity. The results indicated that the perception of a lack of coherence of the norms, the lack of punishment of the transgression, and the inequality in the application and sanction of the norms are perceived as elements that characterize and define the concept of transgression in the context of the covid-19 pandemic. In this regard, the results show that the transgression is attributed mainly to necessity or selfishness, depending on the set of sociodemographic characteristics of who transgresses. It is proposed that this promotes the creation of alternative norms and increases institutional mistrust.
