Effect of a Psychoeducational-Developmental Support Program on Adolescents' Relative Deprivation, Distress Levels, Peer Relations and Basic Psychological Needs

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of a Psychoeducational-Developmental Support Program on adolescents' distress-eustress levels, relative deprivation, peer relationships, and basic psychological needs. The program will be implemented with high school students using a pre-test/post-test control group design. The 11-week intervention includes structured psychoeducational and developmental activities. Assessments of distress-eustress, relative deprivation, peer relations, and basic psychological needs will be conducted before and after the intervention. A follow-up test will be administered one month later. The program is expected to produce significant improvements in adolescents' psychological and social functioning.
