Abstract

Razdoblje adolescencije je proces sazrijevanja i odrastanja koje svatko prolazi na svoj način. Ono je prije svega obilježeno intenzivnim kontaktima s vršnjacima budući da vršnjaci postaju adolescentima druga obitelj. U ovom razdoblju mladi se suočavaju s novim društvenim skupinama, normama, ulogama i očekivanjima, a sve te situacije značajno utječu na razvoj socijalne kompetencije i socijalnog identiteta mladih. Mladi su u ovom razdoblju osobito osjetljivi i podložni utjecaju svojih vršnjaka te im je osobito izražena želja da se osjete prihvaćenim od vršnjačke grupe. U ovom preglednom radu objašnjava se sve veća uloga vršnjaka u životu i razvoju adolescenata te osjetljivost na njihov utjecaj. Poseban naglasak stavljen je na vršnjački utjecaj kao jedan od glavnih mehanizama socijalizacije u razdoblju adolescencije. Rad započinje upoznavanjem s razdobljem adolescencije, te ga slijedi opisivanje vršnjačkih grupa i njihovog značaja sve do utjecaja vršnjaka i vršnjačkog pritiska. Rad se dotiče i područja obitelji i obiteljskih odnosa povezanih s podložnosti utjecaju vršnjaka. Općenito gledano, rad daje pregled ranijih radova i istraživanja koja se bave vršnjačkim odnosima u adolescenciji.

Abstract (english)

The period of adolescence is a process of maturing and growing up, which each individual endures in their own way. Above all, adolescence is marked by intensive peer connections, since peers become an adolescent’s second family. During this period, young people are faced with new social groups, norms, roles and expectations, all of which have a significant impact on the development of social competence and social identity of young people. They are especially sensitive and susceptible to the influence of their peers and they strongly express their wish to be accepted by their peer group. The growing role of peers in a developing life of an adolescent and his or hers sensibility to their influence will be explained in this review paper. The main focus of this paper is on the influence of peers as one of the main mechanisms of socialization during adolescence. The paper begins with an introduction to the period of adolescence, which is followed by descriptions of peer groups and their meanings and the influence of peers and peer pressure. The paper also examines the concept of family and family relations connected to susceptibility to the influence of peers. Generally, the paper provides an overview of recent research papers dealing with peer relations in adolescence.
