Abstract
The article describes the results of the study on value orientations of adolescents with deviant behaviour. The article considers the components of adolescents’ value-semantic sphere. “Values” and their groups are analysed. The article defines the system of significant values : safety, sociality, maturity, pleasure and value orientations: freedom, health, entertainment, active life, love, self-confidence (terminal values); independence, courage in one’s opinion defending, sensitivity (instrumental values). Deviant adolescents are characterized by conflicting values in the hierarchy of values, undifferentiated time perspective, focus on the past, negative emotional attitudes to the present, insignificant value attitudes and inability to control the circumstances of their own lives in the present. Goals and motives of an individual’s activities lie mainly in the field of changes in the objective world. However, deviant adolescents focus on the subjective emotional experiences that accompany the subject activity and its results. Deviant adolescents achieve the desired emotional experiences through illusory-compensatory activities. The leading behavioural motives lose their functions gradually. The low rates of meaning in life orientations indicate a general low level of consciousness of life characteristic for adolescents with deviant behaviour.
