Socio-psychological Personality Traits of a Deviant Parent (Based on the Material of Convicts)
Abstract
The article is prepared on the basis of the results of the final qualifying work and is devoted to the analysis of psychological characteristics of the individual, including a tendency to deviant behavior and the life experience of parents who lead to violent actions against their own children. The sample was made up of convicts who committed crimes of child abuse (physical, emotional, psychological, sexual violence). The article analyzes the causes of parents' deviant behavior, clarifies aspects of deviant behavior, and considers individual life scenarios. The results obtained during the psychodiagnostic study revealed that violations of the relationship between a child and a parent when applying physical punishment measures in the family are more common for subjects prone to deviant behavior. A special role in the formation of the psyche of convicted parents was played by psychological trauma suffered in childhood or in adulthood as a result of sexual violence.
