This report, part of the Hungarian National Middle-Range Research and Development Project, presents 16 papers that represent a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to the study of various forms of deviance in Hungary. |
| Abstract:
|
The selection of the disciplines represented by the authors and the topics covered in their research are intended to provide a comprehensive profile of the historical formation and current seriousness of deviancy in Hungary. The research represented in the papers is also characteristic of current Hungarian research on deviancy, i.e., its latest results, theoretical perspectives, the framework within which the data are interpreted, the principles that underlie the tentative conclusions, and the methodological obstacles. Efforts to counter deviancy are also discussed. The opening paper reviews the study of deviant behaviour in Hungary. Four papers discuss various facets of substance abuse in Hungary. Topics include the drinking habits and problems of youth, the relationship between the regional differences in alcoholism and suicides, drug abuse treatment, and the role of basic health care in the primary prevention of drug addiction. Papers related to suicide and its antecedents address alcoholism and suicides, the epidemiology of suicide events in Hungary, cognitive aspects of depression, and negation and suicide. Other topics covered are the relationship between employment dysfunction and social maladjustment, victims' reactions to crime, the relationship between intelligence and criminal behavior, deviance and socialization, a solution to behavioral disorders in educational conflict situations, and adopted children's difficulties in family adjustment. 56-item bibliography |
