The present study examined the role of parents and peer-relations with respect to two indicators of deviant political development. In the fall 1998, directly after the German parliamentary elections, 1309 East German adolescents were asked about their voting for a right-wing extremist party and their readiness to use violence in political action. Friend's voting was a strong predictor of individual voting for a right-wing extremist party, particularly when the friend was the best friend with a reciprocal nomination, and when the friends frequently communicated about political themes. In addition, voting behaviour and willingness to use violence were associated with membership in peer groups who met frequently. Finally, the violence disposed adolescents spent more of their spare time with peers and less with their parents. Similarities of our results with the findings of research on deviant behaviour in non-political areas support the idea that deviant political behaviour could be an expression of a problematic life situation.

Thus, compared with male adolescents, female adolescents often come off badly in regard to pivotal political orientations like political interest and subjective political competence. Conversely, female adolescents demonstrate even more interest and involvement than males when less conventional issues and modes of political participation are concerned. How could this be explained? First of all, the article classifies the field of political orientations into five large areas and gives a detailed overview of the findings of empirical research. Subsequently, different approaches of gender differences in political orientations are presented: biology, situation, structure, socialization, personality development, and feminist political science. Finally, a stronger integrative perspective of the different approaches is argued, and a more comprehensive view on gender differences in political orientations is suggested Y1 - 2005 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Kuhn, Hans-Peter T1 - Geschlechterverhältnisse in der Schule : sind die Jungen jetzt benachteiligt? ; eine Sichtung empirischer Studien Y1 - 2008 SN - 978-3-86649-181-6 ER -
