The influence of psychological trauma associated with violence on the manifestation of character accentuations in adolescence
Abstract
This article explores the role of psychological trauma associated with violence in the development of character accentuations in adolescence. It describes the types of accentuations and their vulnerabilities, drawing on A.E. Lichko's theory of character accentuations. It also explores how trauma from loved ones can shape pathological traits. The article presents the results of research by L.I. Dementiy and A.V. Kolodina, demonstrating differences in accentuation profiles between adolescents from healthy and dysfunctional families. Based on a theoretical analysis, it presents psychological and pedagogical recommendations aimed at diagnosing, supporting, and correcting the behavior of adolescents who have experienced violence, as well as facilitating interactions between teachers and parents.
