Annotation: The article is devoted to a comprehensive study of the integrative potential of basic socialization institutions — the family and the general education school — in the context of preventing deviant behavior of adolescents determined by the active influence of destructive youth subcultures. The relevance of the investigated problem is driven by the rapid transformation of the sociocultural space, the large-scale digitalization of communicative practices, and the blurring of traditional values, which significantly increases the psychological vulnerability of minors in the face of alternative group norms. The publication provides a detailed analysis of the mechanisms of subcultural socialization, within which the legitimization and assimilation of deviant behavioral patterns occur, and also identifies systemic deficits in the preventive activities of modern family and school institutions. The empirical study was conducted in 2025 on the basis of a secondary school in Astrakhan, with a total sample comprising 62 adolescents, 64 parents, and 24 teachers. The authors theoretically substantiate and experimentally verify an integrative model of coordinated interaction between family and school, the foundation of which is the principles of positive prevention, non-judgmental constructive dialogue, and joint environmental organization. The article proves that shifting from prohibitive strategies to creating attractive alternatives for selfexpression significantly reduces the level of subcultural pressure. The results of the formative experiment are presented, confirming that coordinated activity of upbringing subjects, including targeted education of parents, enhancing the psychological and pedagogical competence of teachers, and organizing legal zones of self-realization for adolescents, reliably reduces the level of inclination toward subculturally determined deviations. Specific practical recommendations for optimizing preventive work at the level of an educational organization are formulated, and promising vectors for further scientific research are identified.
