THREE FACTOR MODEL OF ADOLESCENT RISKY BEHAVIOR

Abstract

Adolescent risky behaviors have lately become a reason for considerable concern of mental health professionals as the grounds for why a teenager would consciously and willingly compromise their health and, in some cases, life still remain unclear. Results of multiple researches run in different cultures indicate various reasons for risky behavior and suggest it be a biopsychosocial phenomenon. Three groups of schoolchildren aged 12-18 y.o. – adolescents that do not practice risky behaviors, adolescents that get engaged into risk from time to time, and adolescents who reported active engagement into multiple risky behaviors – were interviewed for studying their psychological features. The differences between the three groups were so signifi cant that it allowed to conclude that regular engagement into any type risky behavior leads to major emotional, cognitive, psychological, personality, and social levels
