Abstract
The tendency to deviant behavior of students is a negatively affecting factor to the success of their socialization. Its actualization can lead to serious consequences, and become the reason of personality degradation even its death. Some reasons of the tendency to deviant behavior are violations of social and psychological adaptation. The interrelation of positive and negative factors of social and psychological adaptation with the tendency to various forms of deviant behavior is studied in this research. It is established that students' positive elements of social and psychological adaptation, such as high adaptation, self-acceptance and acceptance of others, internal control negatively effect on possibilities of the tendency development to various forms of deviant behavior. As for negative elements of social and psychological adaptation, such as disadaptation, self-unacceptance and unacceptance of others, emotional discomfort, external control and escapism can lead to strengthening of the tendency to deviant behavior. Positive and negative elements of social and psychological adaptation on the tendency to deviant behavior of students-boys are much lower than that of students-girls.

Summary
In modern society there is an acute problem of the effectiveness of socio-psychological adaptation of personality and its adequate behavior in socium. Deviant behavior expresses the social and psychological status of the personality on the "socialization-disadaptation-isolation" axis. This is a stable behavior of a person, deviating from the most important social norms, causing real damage to society or the individual, and accompanied by a social disadaptation (Zmanovskaya & Rybnikov, 2011). The features of social and psychological adaptation of students prone to deviant behavior associated with destructive areas of cooperation in the system "personality-socio-cultural environment" are expressed in the simplification of the internal structure and the destruction of the structural integrity of the individual (Gilemkhanova, 2013). The study of interrelation of social and psychological adaptation and tendency to various forms of deviant behavior of students seems relevant, will enhance understanding of the features of these two phenomena, and identify areas of psycho-pedagogical activities to minimize the negative effects of students behavior
