Abstract

The SOPUS (DFGUC) index (daily family gathering in urban community) considers gatherings of narrow and wider family circles aind friends on various social occasions where adolescents are also present. The hypothesis was that the SOPUS (DFGUC) index could serve as an indicator of the family influence in the process of socialization of adolescents. 228 adolescents were screened (85 male and 143 female). They were all born in town, live with their parents and attend the third grade of the secondary specialized training school. The results of the research have shown that the SOPUS (DFGUC) index can be taken as an indicator of the family influence on some aspects of the elements of socialization of adolescents.
