Zachowania ryzykowne gimnazjalistów

Abstract

The article presents findings focused on risky behaviours of lower secondary school students which threatened their safety and led to numerous disturbances in their surroundings. The behaviours were instrumental, aimed at achieving certain goals, or – according to the Zaleśkiewicz’s concept – stimulating, undertaken for the sake of pleasure without taking their outcome into consideration. The results of the research show that the surveyed students undertook both instrumental and stimulating risky behaviours.
