Situational determination of teenagers’ victim behaviour

The article analyses situational determination of teenagers’ victim behaviour. The focused analysis has reduced all the variety of victimhood-generating situations to four main types: various kinds of violence at school (bulling) and in family; deprivation situations; conflicts and fundamental changes in significant spheres of teenager’s life; stereotyped requirements, instructions and sanctions in the informal communication group. Distinguishing of typical victimhood-generating situations is caused by the necessity of designing programmes for prevention of different kinds of teenagers’ victim behaviour.
