Summary:<p style="text-align: justify;">This study aims at identifying psychological predictors of deviant behavior of pupils in special educational institutions (hereinafter - SEI). Based on the selected methodological and diagnostic life position of a minor with deviant behavior model, the individual psychological characteristics of adolescents were described, and a personality profile of SEI pupil was compiled. The study involved respondents (N=465) from 15 SEIs located in different regions of the Russian Federation aged 12 to 17 years (M=15.4; SD=1.2), 402 (86.5%) - male. The results obtained, in particular, revealed formed group cohesion; a slight violation of the needs for control and meaningful existence; a tendency to conventional coercion and justification of aggression; an insufficient level of development of self-regulation processes in stressful, difficult life situations. Attention is drawn to a fairly high level of awareness and interconnectedness in the overall structure of individual regulation of adolescents.</p>
