Features of the experience of loneliness in early adolescence

Gatich Lyudmila Viktorovna

This study is devoted to the study of the phenomenon of loneliness in early adolescence. This mental health indicator acts as a socio-psychological construct that reflects how children experience the communal aspects of their social world. The risk of destructive loneliness increases due to biological changes (puberty) and social transformations (the choice of friends as the main agents of socialization, which is accompanied by a communicative distance from parents). The purpose of the study: to determine the specifics of loneliness and its consequences in early adolescence.
