PSYCHOLOGICAL CONFLICTS IN COMMUNICATION IN ADOLESCENTS - CAUSES AND INTERVENTIONS

Adolescence is a stage marked by significant changes in both physical and psychological characteristics. Therefore, conflicts often arise in communication with peers or adults due to differences in perception, viewpoints, interests, and needs. These psychological conflicts are part of the developmental struggle toward forming personality and psychological maturity. Understanding psychological conflicts in adolescent communication helps adults in general, and educators in particular, to thoroughly assess the causes, developmental mechanisms, and severity of these conflicts. This understanding serves as a basis for developing appropriate interventions and educational measures to guide adolescents toward healthy development and prevent potential personality formation deviations.
