Abstract:
The objective of the research was the recognition of the part played by the educational attitudes of parents in the determination of the task and defensive (aggression, duck) coping strategy of young people in the difficult social situations as well as the attempt to determine if the task and defensive coping strategy of the youth occurs together with the task and defensive coping strategy of the parents (one of them or both). During the research there were used the Roe-Siegelman type III PCR form for the examination of parental attitudes’ perception, author’s questionnaire for the examination of the coping strategy of young people in the difficult social situations and the author’s questionnaire for the examination of the coping strategy of parents in the difficult social situations (RRTSS). For the statistical analyses there were used the results of 293 students, 13-15 years old. The results of the research show that the part of predicators, which moderately (69%-79%) allow to foresee the aggression (duck) and task coping strategy of adolescent youth in the difficult social situations, is played by the complex of defined family variables: educational attitudes of parents perceived by the adolescent youth: loving attitude, father’s liberal and excessively protective attitude, mother’s rejective attitude as well as the defensive (aggression, duck) and task coping strategy of parents perceived by the youth. It’s not out of place to mention that on the basis of the analysis of research results there weren’t determined the fundamental psychological indices – predicators among the family variables differentiating the youth using the aggression strategy in the coping in the difficult situations and the youth using the avoidance of confrontation with the difficult situation as the coping method.
