ANALYSIS OF LEADING SOCIO-PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS CHARACTERIZING PATRIOTIC QUALITIES IN YOUNG STUDENTS

Patriotism in young students is a complex socio-psychological construct that plays a vital role in shaping national identity, social cohesion, and civic responsibility. The modern globalized context, coupled with cultural diversity, challenges traditional notions of patriotism, necessitating a deeper understanding of the factors that foster or hinder patriotic qualities in youth. Prior research identifies family socialization, educational influence, cultural identification, socioeconomic status, and psychological well-being as key contributors to patriotism. However, an integrated analysis of these factors specifically in young students remains underexplored. This study aims to analyze the leading socio-psychological factors that characterize patriotic qualities in young students, hypothesizing that these factors interact to shape the nature and intensity of patriotism.
