VIOLENT BEHAVIOR MANIFESTATIONS OF ADOLESCENTS IN SCHOOL
Keywords:
violent behavior, school adolescents, parental educational styleAbstract
Violent manifestations in young people’s behavior increased every year in the last decade. These manifestations take numerous aspects going from the simply verbal violence to severe physical violence and even crimes. One of the most important factor that determines violent behaviors in adolescents is the parental educational style.
Our research tries to establish a correlation between the parental educational style and the violent behavior of the adolescents on a sample of 40 school adolescents. We applied personality inventories and other psychological tests to prove the existing relation between the educational style adopted by the parents inside the family and the violent behavioral manifestations of the adolescents in their school life.
The research has two usefulness: a theoretical one by its synthesis of the theoretic framework of the violence and a practical one, by the construction of psychological profiles that could determine the violent features of the adolescent personality and could prevent in this way the concret manifestation of this kind of behavior.
