Real identity is acquired in the course of life, but, above all, it increases during adolescence. It depends on the appreciation or disapproval of others and on the cognitive processing way of the about information about self. The formation of an identity also refers to the virtual spectrum, which in turn complements the personal profile with individual qualities and characteristics that sometimes are not linked to the personality of the teenager. Virtual identity is a part of the personality that lives in the contemporary context of the modern society and represents a newer formation from a scientific point of view. The virtual profile (avatar) is often idealized, and aims to accrue some appreciations and comments based on admiration, positive appreciation or the confirmation of virtues. There is a link between virtual identity and Internet addiction, which can be explained by the fact that excess time spent in cyberspace, apart from physical symptoms such as fatigue, headache, etc., triggers teenagers՚ certain feelings and depressing states that can be explained through the mismatch between the real and the virtual ego.

With the rapid development of electronic information and communication media in the last decades, distributed work has become much easier, faster and more efficient. Responding to the increasing de-centralization and globalization of work processes, many organizations have responded to their dynamic environments by introducing virtual teams that collaborate by communication technologies across geographical, temporal, cultural and organizational boundaries to achieve common goal in their organization outputs. Virtual teams are growing in popularity, and becoming increasingly common. Nowadays, companies are heavily investing in virtual team to enhance their performance and competitiveness. This kind of teams can be defined as small temporary groups of geographically, organizationally and/or time disperse which coordinate their work predominantly with electronic information and communication technologies in order to accomplish one or more organization tasks. In the competitive market, virtual teams represent a growing response to the need for fasting time-to-market, low-cost and rapid solutions to complex organizational problems. Virtual teams enable organizations to pool the talents and expertise of employees and non-employees by eliminating time and space barriers. Recent information systems research has studied various aspects of virtual teams. Despite virtual team growing preva¬lence, relatively little is known about this new form of team. The foundations and theoretical development of virtual team research remain unclear. The first aim of this study is to offer a literature review with definitions of virtual teams and a structured analysis of the present body of knowledge of virtual teams.

The analysis of roles performed by a person can be carried out at three levels: sociological level, in which the role acts as a system of role expectations, derived from, a model given by society; socio-psychological level – a role mani-fested within interpersonal interaction; psychological level – on which the role is internal or imagined, which is not always implemented in role-based behaviour, but in some way affects it; the role here is a structural element of the gender identity of the individual. Gender role conflict is a contradiction either between the normative structures of different gender roles (inter-role conflict), or between the structural elements of one gender role (role conflict – intra-role conflict). Female gender-role conflicts can be purely role-based (for example, „housewife syndrome”) or inter-rolled (for example, a combination of family and professional roles), etc. Male gender-role conflicts are determined by the fact, that the norms of male gender roles remain more conservative and rigid than the norms of female gender roles. The model of „male role stress”, defines the characteristics of the male gender roles that are controversial and incon¬sis-tent and are a source of anxiety, tension and male problems. The negative consequences of male gender roles imple-men¬tation are the following: gender-role stresses, conflicts, intrapersonal conflicts and, as a result, compensatory courage, hyper-masculine behaviour and machismo as its kind, problems in the professional realization of person potential, etc.

The paper analyses the theoretical principles of the features of social identity, which made it possible to study deeply the problem of group membership, based on a questionnaire on social identity. The basis of the research is the theory P.P. Bellini [1], in which the emergence of social identity occurs from the moment of birth under the influence of the parent's family, but the maximum development it acquires during the interaction of rights in society, which later allows you to talk about changes in the relevance of the one or another structural characteristic of social identity. The family is in the first place in significance, which gives the person support for the realization of their own needs and self-development through membership in the group. But intercollective relationships are also significant, this makes it possible to find satisfaction, despite the strong sense of competition that arises. The article reveals the age-old peculiarities of the transformation of social identity. It shows that with age, a person does not lose the need to identify himself with a particular social group, which gives her a sense of satisfaction from staying in it. Satisfaction of this need allows it to better reveal its potential in self-knowledge and self-development, as well as to realize itself in the system of group relations. Each age group has its own traits, which characterize the formation of a person as a social person. That is, with growing up and gaining responsibility for the establishment of one's own career, family, political and cultural views, social identity is updated, which is subsequently not dull, but transformed into a desire to meet their own needs through the group without its structural connections, intergroup relations, and based on the experience gained.

In the context of international standards, violence against children is a serious violation of children's rights. The Convention on the Rights of the Child stipulates the obligation of States Parties to protect the child against any form of violence, injury or abuse, physical or mental, abandonment or neglect, ill-treatment or exploitation, including sexual abuse (art. 19) [1]. At the same time, despite the existence of the international and national legal framework to prevent and combat this phenomenon, violence in school is a current topic. Apart from the fact that the subject is approached in multiple studies from a legal, social, psycho-pedagogical perspective, it remains important in the context of social and institutional transformations at national and global level.
