Abstract
The purpose of the present study is to substantiate basic techniques for alcoholism prevention. Three groups of adolescents with varying degrees of alcohol consumption were examined: the first (control) group consisted of teens (n = 60) without alcohol experience; the second group included adolescents who take alcohol occasionally (n = 64); the third group consisted of teens (n = 60) with high level of alcohol consumption. Clinical psychological, experimental psychological methods were used, as well as statistical methods for the analysis of empirical results. It was established that alcohol intake in adolescence can be regarded as an inadequate way of coping with stress, caused by intrapersonal conflicts. Fixation of this method leads to aggravation of social and psychological maladjustment and is complicated by formation of alcohol dependence.
