PSYCHOLOGICAL DETERMINATION OF THE EMOTIONAL STATE OF ADOLESCENTS STUDYING IN SPECIALIZED SCHOOLS

Abstract

This paper explores the internal and external psychological determinants influencing the emotional state of adolescents studying in specialized schools. The study focuses on three key determinant groups: cognitive-personal, social-environmental, and psychophysiological. Special attention is given to the mechanisms of emotional stress, adaptation, and anxiety in academically competitive settings. The research indicates that the emotional state of gifted students is largely shaped by self-evaluation tendencies, fear of failure, and adaptation fatigue. The findings emphasize the significance of emotional intelligence training and individualized psychological support in optimizing students’ adaptation. The results highlight that emotional instability during adolescence is not only a reflection of cognitive strain but also of environmental expectations and physiological exhaustion. The paper proposes a set of practical recommendations to foster healthy emotional balance and improve academic performance through psychological resilience.
