My research

I’m a psychologist in one of the Orenburg psychological center. My major is psychology. I combine practical work with scientific research. I’m doing research in deviant psychology which is now widely accepted in all fields of psychology. This branch of knowledge has been rapidly developing in the last two decades. The obtained results have already found wide application in various spheres of psychology.

I have been working at the problem for two years. I got interested in it when I was a student. The theme of the dissertation is “Teenagers’ deviant behaviour”. I think this problem is very important nowadays.

My work is both of theoretical and practical importance. It is based on the theory developed by my research adviser professor S. Petrov. He is the Head of the Psychology Department at the Orenburg State University. I always consult him when I have difficulties in my research. We often discuss the collected data.

I take part in various scientific conferences where I make reports on my subject and participate in scientific discussions and debates. I’m planning to finish writing the dissertation in 2 years. I hope to get my master’s degree soon.
