Abstract

In recent years, the demand and popularity of the World Wide Web has been rapidly increasing. Actively introducing itself into the sphere of social relations, it qualitatively changes the ways and characteristics of relationships both between social institutions and between individuals and becomes a significant factor in the development and formation of social behavior of adolescents, for whom the virtual world is becoming commonplace. The article is aimed at solving an urgent scientific problem: what are the features of the process of socialization of adolescents in a networked society? This article analyzes domestic and foreign publications on the issues of personality socialization in the new conditions of a network society. Based on the results of the analysis, it was concluded that it is necessary to study the features of the socialization of a new generation of children and adolescents and the importance of searching for forms, methods and means of their pedagogical support, modernizing the process of education, upbringing and development of a modern personality. On the basis of the provisions of the sociocultural approach, the influence of network, digital information and communication technologies on the transformation of society and the adolescent living in this society is determined. The article also presents the results of an empirical study of the social maturity of modern adolescents and their network identity. The results presented in the article can be used in research work as a source material for further theoretical and practical research. Conclusions about the influence of network communications on the social formation of the younger generation can be used in the professional activities of a wide range of people involved in the development, education and training of the younger generation.
