Description
Adolescence is a stage characterized by rebellious psychology, which acts as a self-defense and self-protection mechanism during youth development. According to Chinese scholar Zhu Zhixian, rebellious psychology is a strong resistance emotion exhibited when objective demands do not align with subjective needs. Some researchers also define rebellious psychology as a psychological response where individuals adopt opposing attitudes and behaviors to maintain self-esteem in social interactions. This phenomenon is common among adolescents and is a frequent concern in both school and family education. The rebellious behavior of adolescents can manifest in various ways, such as distrust toward educators, emotional detachment, and disobedience. Some students may display noticeable counter-control and opposition, affecting their relationships with teachers and parents, sometimes leading to more severe consequences like truancy, running away, or even delinquency.
