This article examines the impact of digital media on the aggressive behavior of adolescents raised in single-parent families. The process of digitalization in modern society directly influences adolescents’ social adaptation, value orientations, and the formation of behavioral models. In particular, the limited emotional support characteristic of single-parent family environments intensifies the influence of the digital environment. Methodology and Methods. The study aimed to identify the mechanisms through which digital media factors affect the formation of aggressive behavior among adolescents in single-parent families. The study employed theoretical analysis, comparative method, content analysis, and interpretation of empirical data. Results. The findings indicated that aggressive content in digital media, cyberbullying, violent elements in online games, and deviant narratives on social media significantly influence adolescents’ behavioral responses. Scientific Novelty.The scientific novelty of the study lies in the comprehensive analysis of the influence of digital media within the socio-psychological context of single-parent families and in the systematization of media-related factors that contribute to the formation of aggression among adolescents. Practical Significance. The results of the study may be applied in the development and implementation of pedagogical and psychological interventions aimed at preventing aggressive behavior among adolescents and improving media literacy in the context of single-parent families.
