Abstract

Relevance. Today, there is a need to form a safe educational environment, as the number of factors attracting student youth to terrorist activities has increased recently.

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to identify ways of forming anti-terrorist consciousness among students, their application in different regions of the world.

Methodology. The study employed methods of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, comparison, systematisation, and generalisation

Results. The study examined the interdisciplinary integrative approach to developing students' anti-terrorism consciousness in educational settings. It conducted a multilevel analysis of the approach's resources and features, identifying how students' personal orientations in society are formed. The research addressed terrorist behavior among students, drawing evidence from various countries and presenting counter-terrorism strategies based on Asian and European higher education experiences. It compared the nature and causes of terrorist behavior among students from different countries, highlighting the causes of formation, values of modern student youth, their influence on consciousness and educational activities were distributed. This comparison helped uncover techniques to shape the meanings and values of student youth effectively.

Conclusions. It was concluded that educational institutions are actively addressing the negative impacts of modern conditions that foster student aggression. They must employ technologies of intentional influence and persuasion to shape students' values. Regulating student value orientations can enhance motivation to resist extremism and terrorism and promote an anti-terrorist stance. This study is practically significant, providing findings useful for creating textbooks and manuals in pedagogy and psychology, developing courses on counter-terrorism, and offering recommendations for national security agencies and future research.
