Characteristics of interpersonal relations in specialized boarding schools
(resume)
Interpersonal relations among inmates of boarding
schools for gifted adolescents are analysed.
External, institutional psychological closedness
results in internal psychological closedness.
Educative-professional activity becomes very
important for the students. Both these factors
lead to the formation of strict intragroup status
differentiation and to the development of «castes»
that are defined in opposition to each other. A
teacher in such an institution often interacts
with adolescents according to already existing
system of interrelations and so indirectly
promotes informal structure of such associations,
contradicting educative purposes of boarding
school.
