The results of the comparative study of personality peculiarities of socially active and inactive adolescents on motivational and personality dimensions have been presented. The comparative diagnostics resulted in generalized personality profiles of socially active and inactive adolescents. Socially active adolescents are statistically more likely to have a community type of interpersonal relations, more positive self-esteem, strong achievement motivation, and more «favorable» personality profile according to Cattell questionnaire. While socially inactive adolescents are prone to see people as an obstacle, they have more motives to avoid failure, are more likely to have low self-esteem, and their personality characteristics reflected some symptoms of personality «dysfunction».
