abstract="This work reviews scholarly literature on processes of violent radicalization to determine how education can prevent radicalization. The first part of the research identifies 3 categories of processes: (a) fulfillment of individual psychological needs; (b) favorable cognitive evaluations of an ideology and means for extremist activity; and (c) group dynamics, pressure, and conformity. The second part reviews educational practices that can be effective in halting these processes. Finally, the conclusion presents implications for future research and education. This work also discusses how education could be shaped to facilitate halting processes of youth radicalization at the initial stage, and how educational institutions could take a leading role in preventing radicalization.
