Addiction in Deviant Teenagers

   The article is devoted to the study of the tendency to dependent behavior in deviant teenagers. Modern realities lead to the fact that there is an increase in the number of people who have deviant behaviors and an increased propensity for the use of psychoactive substances. In addition, the number of asocial families whose children are also at risk of deviant and dependent behaviours is increasing. In this work, dependent behavior refers to the individual’s desire to escape reality by changing his or her mental state through the use of chemicals.

   The purpose of the study was to study addiction in deviant teenagers.

   The main tasks were to consider the concepts of deviant and dependent behavior of adolescents, as well as to find the relationship between these parameters. Empirical research methods (tests, conversation, observation, experiment), data processing methods (r-Spirman correlation coefficient) and interpretation methods (structural description) were used to collect information and test the hypothesis.

   In our work we assume, that there is a link between dependent and deviant forms of behavior, namely: teenagers with addictive and autoaggressive forms of behavior expressed a tendency to use drugs and alcohol; Adolescents with delinquent behaviors have a tendency to consume alcohol, and adolescents with aggressive behaviors are prone to the risk of developing psychological dependence on alcohol products. The conducted research points to the need to conduct comprehensive psycho-corrective work aimed at reducing the manifestation of deviant forms of behavior and, as a result, reducing the risk of addiction to dependent behavior.
