Psychological and psychophysiological aspects of accentuations of character of adolescents (on the example of children with deviant and normative behavior)
The article is devoted to the study of psychological and psychophysiological parameters characterizing adolescents with various types of character accentuation.The problem of insufficient attention is paid to the psychophysiological aspects of the formation of accentuations in the nature of adolescents in planning psychological correction of deviant behavior. The authors claim that the question of psychophysiological aspects of accentuated personality development for needs of deviant behavior psychotherapeutic intervention in adolescents is not sufficiently covered in recent researches.It is shown that in the teenage period of development, it is extremely important to ensure optimal conditions for the development of systems of emotional-volitional regulation and the possibility of effective correction of behavior. It was shown that in the adolescence is extremely important to provide optimal conditions both for the emotional and self regulation systems development and psychotherapeutic intervention effectiveness.The specificity of the prevailing types of accentuations in adolescents, prone and not prone to deviant behavior, is analyzed; significant differences were identified and explained.It is proved that deviant adolescents are characterized by the severity of cycloid, excitable and unstable types of accentuations; and adolescent gymnasium students are more pronounced astheno-neurotic and anxious-pedantic types. The study proves that adolescents with deviant behavior are characterized by the severity of cycloid, excitable and unstable types of accentuations. In the same time the adolescents from the control group are characterized more as astheno-neurotic and anxious-pedantic types.The study showed that in adolescents with a predominance of the emotionally unstable component, the effects of sympathetic activation in the regulation of functions predominate. For adolescents with a neurotic type of behavior, a predominance of parasympathetic activity is characteristic. The study showed that in adolescents with the predominance of the emotional instability the sympathetic activation is prevailed in functional regulation. On the other hand in the adolescents with the predominance of neurotic type the parasympathetic activation is prevailed.The results of this study are prognostic signs of potential shifts in the development of behavioral deviations. The results of this study reveal diagnostic measures of potential shifts in the development of behavioral deviations.The authors give arguments that the formation of character accentuations is caused not only by social attitudes and education, but also by the conditions for the formation of neural connections providing these accentuations.It is proved that modern programs of psychological correction of deviant behavior of adolescents should include both psychological aspects of exposure and the use of psychophysiological simulators that develop the functions of the prefrontal cortex. It is proved that the modern programs of the psychotherapeutic intervention for adolescents with deviant behavior should include both psychological and psychophysiological means such as simulators that help to develop the prefrontal cortex functions. It is shown that adolescents' awareness of the specifics of their own accentuations will help to significantly facilitate its adaptation in society.
