This study examines a boyʼs experience of delinquency during his middle adolescence (14–16 years of age) at the case level. This is a boy from a functional family with no known predisposition to delinquency. The non-pathological context of the case under study allows the case to be labelled as deviant sampling. The Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) method was used. The results show that the boy perceives his extremely extensive delinquent behaviour (especially substance use, rule-breaking, lying and denial) as inappropriate but at the same time necessary to achieve freedom, respect and dominance among his peers. During adolescence, he changes his strategies for achieving respect and dominance in the group by beginning to use his rhetorical skills.

The study focuses on the specific case of a girl with a significant experience of delinquency in early adolescence (13–15 years of age). The girl is from a functional family with no known predisposition to delinquency. Therefore, this case can be considered as deviant sampling. The study has a multidisciplinary overlap (psychology, criminology and social pedagogy). The IPA (interpretative phenomenological analysis) method was used to uncover the meanings that the participant attributes to the phenomena of delinquency. The results showed that the need for peer social acceptance was at the core of the case. The accompanying manifestation of delinquency was lying, which transcended theft. In late adolescence, the girl changed her strategy for gaining social acceptance and used her own ability to „empathically counsel” others. The results of this study evoke the creation of an evaluation study of an experimental educational program for adolescents from non-pathological backgrounds.
