Abstract:
In domestic and foreign literature on the sciences of psychology,
pedagogy, sociology, philosophy there is no single approach to the concepts of
“deviant behavior” or “delinquent behavior”. You can also find synonyms for the
phenomenon of deviant behavior, such as deviant behavior, delinquent, asocial,
destructive, addictive, pathological, maladaptive, accentuation behavior.
Key words.
Deviant behavior, antisocial behavior, autoaggressive,
situational criminals.
Deviant behavior is also of particular importance in the interpretation of
representatives of Russian scientific schools, which differ from foreign scientific
schools in their approach.
Deviance is often seen as an example of behavior that goes beyond socially
acceptable norms and role expectations. Deviance is characterized as a violation
of social norms and procedures.
Deviance is a characteristic of behavioral actions that do not correspond to
social norms and values established by society.
In a broad sense, the concept of "deviance" includes any deviations from
social norms accepted in society.
According to the theory of M.A. Kovalchuk, I.Y. Tarkhanova, deviance is the
result of a violation of behavior regulated by social norms.
According to the point of view of S.Y. Borodulina, V.I. Dobrenkov, A.I.
Kravchenko, I.A. Nevsky, V.G. Stepanov, S.S. Frolov, deviant behavior is the social
behavior of an individual or group that is disproportionate to the norms, laws,
and rules formed and established in a given society.
When I.S. Kohn defines the concept of deviant behavior, he evaluates it as a
system of behaviors that deviate from generally accepted or observed norms of
mental health, law, culture, and behavior.
G.I. Kolesnikova also highlighted the process of socialization in her book
“Fundamentals of Psychological Counseling and Psychological Correction” in
connection with the social behavior of the individual. I.S. Konesa interpreted

deviant behavior as behavior that deviates from at least one of these social
norms.
V.G. Bazhenov, on the other hand, comprehensively covers the mechanisms
of personal development, the essence of psychological mechanisms for
correcting deviant behavior, and the psychological and pedagogical conditions
for corrective and developmental work at school.
According to V.F. Shevchuk, the cause of deviant behavior should be
understood as a set of behaviors that do not correspond to formal or informal
social norms, border on socio-psychological degradation in the individual, and
cause negative psychological effects in the social environment.
Many scholars, when explaining their point of view on the concept of
deviant behavior, focus on deviations from the norms of social organization of
human behavior and deficiencies in mental self-control. In their studies, Russian
scientists present approaches to this problem such as the maladaptive
appearance of people who are prone to various situations of an asocial,
psychosocial, and pathogenic nature, deviations from existing social norms,
deviance, and violation of social norms.
According to L.S. Vygotsky, deviant behavior is not a result of physical or
nervous system disorders, but rather a characteristic determined by upbringing
and conditions. Parents' lack of trust in their children or improper upbringing
lays the foundation for the child's future character traits. Difficulties that arise
during the upbringing of a person and their failure to comply with the norms
established in society are considered in psychology as deviations, that is,
violations. According to L.S. Vygotsky's point of view, deviant behavioral traits
formed in a person and their consequences can significantly affect his
development as a person.
The term “deviant behavior” refers to the behavior of minors that deviates
from the social norms and rules accepted in society and is characterized by non-
compliance with these norms and rules and their violation. Deviant behavior is
especially characteristic of minors. During this period, the personality of
adolescents is formed, their self-understanding, knowledge of the world, etc. are
determined. However, the formation and development of a person is a complex
process, and the difficulties and deviations inherent in it, internal conflicts, and
adaptation to various situations in social life are among the works that need to
be studied in sociology.
Based on the theoretical data highlighted above, deviant behavior is a pattern of
behavior that is based on the lack of positive emotional relationships between

the infant and the mother in early childhood, the lack of a sense of security and
trust. Furthermore, deviant behavior is a set of behaviors that arise as a result of
a person's avoidance of responsibility for finding the meaning of their life, their
inability to positively express themselves, inadequate life relationships and
underdeveloped social feelings, incorrect perceptions and, as a result, the
formation of distorted thoughts in thinking, and deviations from accepted norms
in society
