The article studies procedural and substantive aspects of the vocational self-determination in pupils of 9 and 10 years of schooling with a tendency to deviant behavior. The research aims to reveal the specifics of the personal job outlook in adolescents and youth with such tendencies and uses E.A. Klimov’s ideas of the personal vocational plan of a schoolchild which were further elaborated in N.S. Pryazhnikov’s works who put forward the concept of one’s personal vocational outlook (PVO). The research compares PVO components of so-ciopathic pupils (main group) and those of their classmates with relatively normative be-havior (C group), all going to the same school in Moscow. 80 schoolchildren (51 boys and 29 girls aged 15–17) took part in the main stage of the research. These were used: Method-ology for Diagnostics of one’s Tendency towards Deviant Behavior by Orel N.A.; Personal Vocational Outlook inventory by N.S. Pryazhnikov; Differential and Diagnostic Inventory (DDI) by E.A. Klimov. The results obtained for the main and C groups were compared us-ing the Mann–Whitney U test. The most problematic PVO aspects have been revealed for schoolchildren with sociopathic tendencies. Targets have been identified for psychological and educational counselling for the risk group schoolchildren in their vocational self-determination.
