Abstract

The article reflects results of an empirical study of extremist and terrorist manifestations in the behavior of adolescents, shows the main directions of work on the creation of organizational and pedagogical conditions that prevent the involvement of students in radical organizations. The use of a set of reasonably selected techniques made it possible to identify the level of suggestibility, tolerance, and propensity for national, religious and political extremism among modern adolescents. As a result of the psychological and pedagogical diagnostics, it is found that the occurrence of conflicts on national and social grounds in the adolescent environment is not predicted. At the same time, the emergence of negative moods is possible due to the actualization of factors that negatively affect the moral and mental state of adolescents, their perception of the world around them. The results of the diagnostics show that a group of adolescents was identified who demonstrate aggressive behavior, a low level of tolerance, high suggestibility, and a tendency towards national, religious and political extremism in their behavior. With these adolescents, the school’s teacher-psychologist organized correctional and developmental work in the form of social and psychological training, explanatory conversations, and individual counseling of parents.
