Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes the study results of adolescents' attitudes toward extremism. The participation in protest situations is perceived by adolescents as a special form of adulthood manifestation. Because of that, a protesting behavior can become significant in personality formation and influence the adoption of deviant behavior. The study oversees: the prevalence of extreme ideology in the micro-social environment of adolescents; adolescents' view of extremism as a special form of social behavior (which is characterized by emerging into a value-normative system of a personality) and adolescents' attitude to the violence legalization problem as whole.
