Abstract

The aim of the study is to determine the role of volunteer activities in ensuring socialization processes among adolescents in modern conditions. Based on a quantitative and qualitative analysis of diagnostic data collected from younger and older adolescents, the paper shows how their participation in volunteer activities influences significant aspects in their socialization, the formation of a number of personal characteristics and the general level of social training. The scientific novelty of the study lies in clarifying the importance of volunteering as a special form of manifestation of social initiative and activity among schoolchildren in ensuring the key parameters of socialization, i.e., social adaptation, personal autonomy, social activity, commitment to humanistic values, throughout adolescence using a single diagnostic toolkit. As a result of comparing two samples of respondents (participants in volunteer projects and their peers who do not have similar experience), it is shown that volunteer activities has significant potential in creating conditions for the development of socially important qualities and the formation of a subjective personal position among pupils in middle and high school.
