Downloads
Objective: This article scientifically examines the psychological factors influencing the process of social adaptation of unorganized youth in Uzbekistan. The study highlights the role of social activity, communicative abilities, motivational needs, and emotional stability in the integration of young people into society. Particular attention is paid to the impact of family environment, peer relationships, employment level, educational discontinuity, and the digital information environment on youth psychology. Method: The article also develops scientific and practical recommendations aimed at improving youth social adaptation through psychological training, vocational guidance programs, motivational approaches, and mechanisms of social cooperation. Results: The findings indicate that a low level of social adaptation among unorganized youth is often associated with insufficient psychological support, lack of self-confidence, and weak social motivation. The research findings have significant theoretical and practical importance for enhancing youth policy, psychological service systems, and the activities of educational institutions. Novelty: The study contributes to a deeper understanding of the socio-psychological characteristics of unorganized youth and provides a basis for developing effective adaptation strategies in modern society.
