Bystander reaction differences between cyberbullying victims and non‐victims among Chinese adolescents: The roles of online and offline social capitals

AbstractThe increasing use of social networks makes online interactions more accessible and increases the risks of cyberbullying. There is a lack of research comparing the role of online and offline social capitals in facilitating positive bystander behaviours in cyberbullying. This study aims to investigate the relationships among cyberbullying victimization experiences, social capitals and bystander behaviours among adolescents. A total of 1207 students in grades 7–9 from boarding schools in China were recruited for this study. Multiphase regressions are used to explore the associations of social capitals and bystander behaviours. Results showed that cyberbullying victims reported more frequent residential mobility and less frequent communication with parents compared with non‐victims. Participants with more offline capitals and less online capital reported fewer experiences as cyberbullying victims. Participants' defending bystander reactions were related to more offline social capitals and higher academic achievement. The findings from this study may contribute to our understanding of bystander reactions to cyberbullying and its relationship with online and offline social capitals among boarding school adolescents. The discussion could also provide implications for proactive and individualized intervention to improve online and offline social capitals to cyberbullying bystander behaviours in schools and communities.

Parental psychological control, autonomy frustration, and psychological well-being among boarding school adolescents

Psychological well-being is fundamental for adolescents to be adaptive and fully functioning in the environment. For adolescents who stay in boarding school, even though they are away from their parents due to boarding school rules, parents still have a role to provide support and direct their behavior through parental control. On the other hand, adolescence is a period where children learn to be detached from their parents and strive for autonomy. The present study aimed to investigate the role of autonomy need frustration as a mediating variable between parental psychological control and psychological well-being for adolescents who stayed in boarding school. A survey was completed by 318 Islamic boarding school adolescents with an age range from 12–18 years old. The findings showed that autonomy need frustration fully mediated the relationship between parental psychological control and psychological well-being. Parental psychological control causes a decline in boarding school adolescents’ psychological well-being through the feeling of autonomy need frustration. These results support further development of studies regarding the psychological well-being of adolescents, especially in the boarding school context.

Correlation of Puberty Status Effect of Teenage Islamic Students with Oral Hygiene and Gingiva Condition

Islamic boarding schools are social, religious institutions that become educational vehicles for Muslims who desire to investigate the religious sciences; someone accompanies a teacher wherever they go or settle in a cottage to learn science (santri/student at the muslim school). Adolescents at puberty experience growth characterized by physiological and hormonal influences on their physical appearance. Visible changes can affect their behavior, transition period, and health problems, especially in dental and oral health and gingiva. The teeth and mouth are the most crucial hygiene in the human body, becoming a significant problem in adolescent health. The absence of teeth and mouth for gingiva is frequently used as a sign of diseased periodontal tissue.

Contribution of instant amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus L.)-based vegetable soup to nourishment of boarding school adolescents.

Uganda has one of the youngest populations in the world with about 78% of its population below 30 years of age, most of which are adolescents. The boarding school diet fed to adolescents is rich in carbohydrates and proteins but lacks adequate amounts of micronutrients to meet the adolescent RDA requirements. This study aimed at contributing to the improvement of the nutritional status of boarding school adolescents in Uganda by developing an acceptable convenient instant vegetable soup rich in protein (12.30 ± 0.25–13.26 ± 0.25%), total carotenoids (154.19 ± 12.62–292.68 ± 3.56 RAE/μg), and iron (2.33 ± 0.06–4.37 ± 0.03 mg). The three soup formulations showed desirable reconstitution and instant characteristics owing to the observed functional properties. The soup had a high dispensability (69%–71%), water absorption capacity of 1.53–1.98 g/g, bulk density of 0.79–0.80 g/ml, and swelling capacity of 5.05–5.38 g/g. The overall sensory acceptability was within a range of 6.2–6.7 and not significantly different from the control commercial soup. The soups contributed over 25% of the adolescent RDA requirements for carbohydrate, protein, dietary fiber, vitamin A, and iron but not for zinc (5.7%) and calcium (9.7%). These results indicate the potential of the soup to improve the nutritional status of adolescents. However, there is a need for additional research to increase the formulated soups’ acceptability, its contribution to zinc and calcium RDA adolescent requirements, as well as to determine its bioavailability and shelf stability.

Small Screen Technology Use Among Indigenous Boarding School Adolescents from Remote Regions of Western Australia

The uptake of small screen technology by adolescents is widespread, particularly in industrial nations. Whether the same is true for Australian Aboriginal youth is less clear as there is a dearth of research in this regard. Therefore, in this exploratory study the use of small screen technology by Indigenous students was examined. Twenty-four Indigenous adolescents (mean age 16.4 years) attending a boarding school in a remote region of Western Australia participated in individual and in-depth structured interviews that queried their use of: (1) television, (2) video games, (3) computers, (4) the internet, and (5) mobile phones. The results showed that mobile phones were the most frequently used and the most popular (i.e., they were nominated as first choice in a hypothetical scenario), followed by the internet, whereas television, video games and computers were used less often. It did appear that mobile phones were used by participating Aboriginal adolescents in ways similar to non-Indigenous adolescents (e.g., not only to make phone calls, but also to send text messages and access the internet). However, their mobile phone use did reflect differences based on their cultural values and identity, and also reflected their physical distance from their family (i.e., because of their enrolment at a boarding school). This study supports anecdotal evidence of a rapid uptake of mobile phones by Indigenous adolescents. It also suggests that as the small screen technology of choice, they have the potential to be utilised for educational opportunities.

Family Background, School Type, and College Attendance: A Conjoint System of Cultural Capital Transmission

Using the national High School and Beyond (HSB) data set and a national sample of elite private boarding school adolescents, this article compares public, Catholic, elite boarding, and other elite private schools with respect to characteristics of the families whose children attend; features of access and control; educational, teacher, and pedagogical characteristics; and college aspirations and attendance patterns of their graduates. The college attendance patterns of adolescents attending different types of schools are then analyzed in more detail. Even when they are compared with exceptional ability HSB adolescents of high social backgrounds, elite boarding school students have considerably higher probabilities of at-tending highly selective colleges or universities. With statistical controls of family backgrounds and student achievement, the HSB and elite boarding school adolescents are equally likely to pursue post-secondary education and almost equally likely to attend I-year colleges. However, elit...
