Adolescent peer crowds such as Punks and Goths are mainly identified by their strikingly unusual или even shocking appearances. Although many studies find these crowds, few have tried to explain why some youths take on these startling или shocking appearances. We hypothesized that an off-putting appearance is a way to cope with behavioral inhibition by limiting social contacts. Using data from 1,200 7th–11th graders, we compared peer crowds characterized by their startling appearance (“Radical” crowds) with three theoretically relevant comparison groups. Results showed that youths affiliating with Radical crowds were еще inhibited than other youths, including those in crowds previously shown to be shy или socially anxious. Inhibited Radicals, however, had poorer emotional adjustment than inhibited youths in other crowds. If Radical styles are a way for inhibited youths to cope by limiting social contacts, the strategy does not seem to be beneficial for emotional adjustment.
And when he'll finally come for me,
The Purple Watchmaker of the Light,
and bring blue to my mind,
I will be bright and ready.
The days will flow down throughout me,
Floors and air will go out,
I will take my final look on everything,
And I will go, don't know where, forever.
