Book synopsis

The purpose of this research was to investigate the degree to which certain psychological and behavioral characteristics are related to degree of affiliation with the Gothic subculture. Specifically, the relation between degree of affiliation and depression, alcohol and tobacco use, Openness to experience, Extraversion, and creativity were examined. The data from the current study supported many positive stereotypes about, and dispelled many negative stereotypes about Goths. Also, the data from the current study supported the notion that the Goth subculture is a separate and distinct adolescent crowd with its own set of defining psychological characteristics. The Goth subculture s relative uniqueness among adolescent crowds is consistent with modern theory about adolescent peer groups and adolescent identity development. Finally, the results suggest that, despite their unconventional appearance, ideas, and interests, counselors do not need to be on high alert when faced with a client who appears to be a Goth affiliate.
