Aggression in adolescents with display of connecting tissue

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of the study of aggression in adolescents with connective tissue dysplasia and adolescents without dysplastic processes, which did not reveal significant differences in the structure of aggression in both groups. The relevance of this work lies in the fact that the widespread distribution of connective tissue dysplasia in the adolescent population, its progressing course, the duration of the disease, the tendency towards early disability pose the question of studying behavioral characteristics, in particular aggression and its influence on the course of the disease, before psychological science and practice. In adolescents of both groups, defensive aggression predominates, which determines hostile actions that arise in response to real or perceived threats. Teenagers are trying to protect themselves from people who have power over them or suppress them, limit things in some way, prohibit something, usually they are parents, older in age or teachers. Surrounded by peers, adolescents are afraid of being unrecognized, becoming an object of ridicule, afraid that they will be discussed. Protective aggression can actively manifest itself at the behavioral level and be transformed into active aggression. Adolescents with connective tissue dysplasia, in comparison with peers without dysplastic manifestations, have less pronounced qualities such as: envy, distrustfulness, suspicion towards other people, resentment, suspicion, guilt, index of hostility. In adolescents with dysplastic disorders, active aggression predominates in comparison with healthy adolescents. An analysis of the degree of aggression showed that the adolescents of the main group are dominated by a high level of aggression, and adolescents without dysplastic processes had a weak level of aggression.
