Survey of Knowledge and Perceived Self-Efficacy of Related to Dairy Consumption Among Female High-School Students in Shaft County

Introduction: Given the importance of adolescent health, especially for girls, and the inadequacy of dairy consumption around the world, there is a need to examine the psychological factors associated with dairy behavior. Therefore, this study was performed on high school girls.
 Methods: Descriptive-analytical research was performed on 385 female high school students in Shaft city in the academic year of 2019 in the census method. The survey questionnaire consisted of demographic information, knowledge structure, perceived self-efficacy, and dairy consumption behavior completed by students. To analyze the results, 21 SPSS software and Chi- Square tests, Spearman correlation coefficient and multiple logistic regression were used.
 Results:n total, 221 people (57.7%) consumed less than 2 units and 162 people (42.3) consumed more than 2 units per day of dairy products. The average score of self-efficacy structures was 23.20 ± 6.6 (average) and knowledge 19.1± 3.05 (at a good level). There was no significant correlation between perceived self-efficacy and dairy consumption behavior r = 0. 199, but significant p <0.05, and no significant correlation was observed between knowledge and behavior (p> 0.05, r =- 0.25). The results of multiple logistic regression showed the predictive power of the perceived self-efficacy structure in dairy consumption behavior with a chance ratio of 1.052 (with a confidence interval of 95%: 1.089-1.016).
 Conclusion:Understood self-efficacy predicted the behavior of dairy consumption in the students studied, educational interventions in schools should focus more on promoting perceptions and nutritional attitudes.

Revisiting the life of Lucy Garvin, first principal of Sydney Girls High School: expanded biography and use of digital sources

PurposeThe article sets out primarily to fill in some of the gaps in the biography of Lucy Arabella Stocks Garvin (1851–1938), first principal of Sydney Girls High School. As a reflexive exercise stimulated by this biographical research, the second aim is to explore the transformative work of digital sources on the researcher's research processes that in turn generate possibilities for expanded biographical studies in the history of education.Design/methodology/approachThis article encompasses two approaches: the first uses traditional historical methods in the digital sources to provide an expanded biography of Lucy Garvin. The second is a reflexive investigation of the effects of digitisation of sources on the historian's research processes.FindingsThe advent of digital technologies has opened up more evidence on the life of Lucy Garvin which enables a fuller account both within and beyond the school gate. Digital sources have helped to address important gaps in her life story that challenge current historiographical understandings about her: for example, regarding her initial travel to Australia; her previous career as a teacher in Australia and the circumstances of her appointment as principal; her private and family life; and her involvement in extra school activities. In the process of exploring Garvin's life, the researcher reflected on the work of digital sources and argues that such sources transform the research process by speeding up and de-situating the collection and selection of evidence, while at the same time expanding and slowing the scrutiny of evidence. The ever-expanding array of digital sources, despite its patchiness, can lead to finer grained expanded biographical studies while increasing the provisionality of historical accounts.Originality/valueThe article presents new biographical information about an important early female educational leader in Australia and discusses the impact of digital sources on archival and research processes in the history of women's education.

ILMe (I Love Me): Psikoedukasi tentang Persepsi Citra Tubuh pada Siswi Sekolah Menengah Atas

Background: Nutrition status among girls is becoming a severe concern for preventing undernutrition in their future pregnancy. Since they experience many physical changes during adolescence, some girls will feel dissatisfied with their own body. This feeling may lead to negative body image, which is a long time will impact health status. The research aimed to facilitate psychoeducation and analyze the improvements towards the senior high school girls’ perception of body image in Palembang.Method: A quasi-experimental study design was employed in the research with a non-equivalent control group. Participants were selected using purposive sampling, divided into intervention (n=18) and control (n=19) groups. All steps of the research were carried out online because of pandemic COVID-19. The questionnaire was given via Google form, while the three psychoeducation sessions were given through Zoom Meetings. Data were analyzed using Paired T-test (intervention) and Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test (control).Results: Most of the participants are 16 years old (40%), first-grade students (46%), and go to public school (67%). The mean score of both groups is decreased, which indicate their perception of body image is changed positively. However, there was no significant mean difference of the perception before and after treatment, either intervention (p-value 0.632) or control group (p-value 0.494). By the psychoeducation session, some participants already tried to share their feelings and problems related to their bodies, mostly originating from negative opinions given by peers. Girls should be motivated to love themselves through psychoeducation sessions with longer duration or more frequency to generate a positive body image.

Theatre as method: Performance creation through action research

In order to truly examine critical cultural and social issues pertaining to young people, researchers must find ways to overcome the ways in which young people naturally filter their responses when speaking with adults, as these filters may limit what researchers are able to discover through interviews and focus groups. Working through theatre offers the opportunity for researcher and participant to co-construct knowledge. Drama workshops and the creation of a theatrical performance creates a community in which ideas and questions can be deeply examined and self-filtering and censorship mitigated; participant voice is centered and privileged. For seven weeks, I worked with thirteen high school girls to explore issues of identity through a devised theatre performance. My intent was to examine the ways arts-based research might provide more insight than traditional qualitative methods. This article discusses how working through theatre provided a space in which the girls I worked with felt more comfortable expressing their uncensored thoughts and opinions and offers a deeper insight into the ways working through the arts provides a model for participatory research that yields deep and nuanced understandings.

The Effect of the Power of Thinking Strategy on Achievement and Development of Life Skills to Start Fifth-Grade Literary Students in History

The current research aims to know the impact of the strategy of thinking power in achievement and development of life skills for fifth-grade literary students in history, by verifying the validity of the following null hypotheses. First, there is no statistically significant difference at the level of significance (0.05) between the average grades of the experimental group students who study modern and contemporary European and American history according to the thinking power strategy and the average scores of the control group students who study the same subject in the usual way in the post-achievement test.Furthermore, there is no statistically significant difference at the level of significance (0.05) between the average grades of the experimental group students who study modern and contemporary European and American history according to the strategy of thinking power in the pre- and post-life skills scale. Finally, there is no statistically significant difference at a significance level (0.05) between the average scores of the control group students who study modern and contemporary European and American history according to the usual method in the pre- and post-life skills scale. To achieve the goal of the research, the researcher adopted a partial controlled experimental design for the experimental and control groups, as well as the pre- and post-tests. The researcher applied the research experiment on a sample of fifth grade literary students in (Thuaiba Al-Islamiya Girls High School) affiliated to the General Directorate of Diyala Governorate Education for the academic year (2018/2019), which was randomly selected. The number of female students in the research sample was (66), of which (32) female students were for the experimental group that would be studied according to the strategy of thinking power, and (34) female students for the control group that would be taught according to the regular method. The researcher conducted equivalence between the two research groups with the following variables: (parents' academic achievement, first course scores for the academic year (2018/2019), IQ test scores, and pre-life skills scale scores.After the researcher determined the scientific subject that she will study for the students of the experimental and control groups in the experiment, namely the chapters (the fifth, sixth and seventh) of the modern and contemporary European and American history curriculum to be taught to the fifth grade literary students for the study year 2018/2019, the researcher formulated (131) behavioural goals according to the six levels for BLOOM classification of the cognitive domain (knowledge, understanding, application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation), daily instructional plans were prepared for the experimental and control groups.

Pendidikan Kesehatan tentang Anemia pada Remaja Putri di SMA N 12 Kabupaten Merangin

Anemia is the impact of nutritional problems on teenager girl. Nutritional anemia is caused by a lack of nutrients that play a role in the formation of hemoglobin, it can be due to lack of consumption or absorption disorders. Only 62% of anemia mothers have received iron supplemented tablets in the working area of Puskesmas Simpang Limbur, while the iron supplemented tablet program for teenager girls in high school has not been implemented. The purpose of this community service activity is to provide information and motivation to teenagers to prevent anemia. Providing information in the form of health education regarding the definition, signs, clinical signs and symptoms and the impact of anemia. The implementation method is in the form of counseling, discussion, practice simulation and pre-post test evaluation. Monitoring evaluation is carried out by looking at the indicators of success in the aspect of target attendance attending every meeting in service and practice activities to the target, reflections and feedback from the participants. The results of the activity show that school support is very good, students' knowledge of anemia is more than 80%. The material still needs to be improved regarding the risk factors for anemia in adolescents. Collaboration with health workers is needed to gain new knowledge on a regular basis, as well as empowering students as youth cadres.

Érettségiző orvos- és gyógyszerész-jelölt lányok iskolai eredményei. Az Egri Angolkisasszonyok Leánygimnáziumának pályaválasztói (1930-1940)

Higher education for women did not enjoy societal support in the Horthy era. There was great resistance, especially towards the women’s medical and pharmaceutical training. The aim of the present study is to analyse the high school educational performance of girls determined for careers in medicine and pharmacy. Did social pressure instigate these young people to work harder for better outcomes? The present data sampling concerned the students’ end-of-year grades in the 8th year and the graduation grades of the English Ladies' High School for Girls in Eger/Hungary between 1930 and 1940. Our results did not prove that those opting for health care careers performed significantly better than their fellow students opting for other careers. Future medical doctors and pharmacists were not the best high school graduates and they were definitely not motivated to achieve excellent results always and in all subjects.

Latinos & Latinas in American Sport: Stories Beyond Peloteros ed. by Jorge Iber

Reviewed by: Latinos & Latinas in American Sport: Stories Beyond Peloteros ed. by Jorge Iber Samuel O. Regalado Latinos & Latinas in American Sport: Stories Beyond Peloteros. Edited by Jorge Iber. (Lubbock: Texas Tech University Press, 2019. Pp. 272. Notes, index.) It is with great satisfaction that I have witnessed Latinos and Latinas gain vital ground in United States sports history. Since the late 1980s, academic publishers, with a keen sense of their business and of changing demographics in academia, have tapped into this new scholarly vein and recruited young Latinx researchers, many still in doctoral programs, to become authors. This new generation bore fruit in the form of monographs, journal articles, and anthologies. After 2000, historian Jorge Iber, through his early work on Mexican American sport, emerged in the top tier of scholars who have taken Latinx sports history to a new level. Iber was well positioned to pull together a team of scholars for his latest contribution, the aptly named anthology, Latinos & Latinas in American Sport: Stories Beyond Peloteros. Their expertise and contributions are vast, pinpointing Latinx sporting experience within the context of family, community, nationalism, diplomacy, gender, and race. Furthermore, alongside the familiar sports of baseball and football, readers will find competitions like drag racing as historical conduits for Latinx opportunity and also observe the impact of sport on the lives and communities of individuals like "Nemo" Herrera and Wally Rodríguez. The book features thirteen essays packed nicely into 259 pages of text and endnotes presented in a remarkably consistent format, given the diverse disciplines of its contributors. Of the thirteen essays, six are from history, two are from English, and one each are from American studies, journalism, and political science, and investigative reporting. The thirteenth is Iber's conclusion. Such consistency results in a reading experience that is clear and manageable. And on this count, Iber's experience with anthologies is strongly demonstrated. For all of the book's merit, the absence of a Latina contributor is not unnoticed. And this is not for lack of subject matter, as there is ample material from which an ambitious researcher might draw. Thankfully, Ben Chappell's work on Latinas and softball tournaments, Gary Selber's look at high school girls in basketball, and the essay by Paul Cuadaros, who observed the advancement of Latina integration through soccer, all satisfy that vacuum. This, however, was not an oversight on Iber's part. Latina writers of sport history, if any, are few and far between. Indeed, if there is a [End Page 363] drawback in this research area, this would be it. In short, a Latina perspective is sorely in need. Nonetheless, this anthology is a real gem, especially for those wishing to get into the weeds to uncover the dynamics and evolution of U.S. ethnic communities and to explore the impact Latinx sports figures made on a larger scale. Along with historians, students in ethnic studies, American studies, and political science will benefit from this collection. Indeed, these essays describe a distinctive part of the overall story of the United States and its people. And it is to Jorge Iber's credit and astuteness that he recognized it. Samuel O.

Ask Tesadüfleri Sever2/Love Likes Coincidences 2 (Feature by Ömer Faruk Sorak, ?pek Sorak, and Alp Tekin)

Reviewed by: Ask Tesadüfleri Sever2/Love Likes Coincidences 2 Cigdem Slankard (bio) Ask Tesadüfleri Sever2/Love Likes Coincidences 2 Feature, Starring Nesrin Cavadzade, Yiğit Kirazcı, Elif Doğan, and Uğur Polat, 2020, 121 Minutes, Directed by Ömer Faruk Sorak and İpek Sorak, Produced by Ömer Faruk Sorak and Alp Tekin Love Likes Coincidences 2 is a popular Turkish feature from husband-and-wife co-directors Ömer Faruk Sorak and İpek Sorak, which tells an implausibly intertwined tale of two love stories. One takes place in Istanbul in 1963 with the backdrop of Istanbul’s Greek Community’s mistreatment by the Turkish government, while the second story is set in contemporary Ankara. Although the title hints at a sequel, Love Likes Coincidences 2 contains a narrative independent of the first film, namely, Love Likes Coincidences 1. Yet, the fact remains that both films explore similar themes like love and coincidence. Love Likes Coincidences 2 is inspired by a true story, originally written by İpek Sorak and adapted to screenplay by Nuran Evren Şit. We first meet the main characters from the 1960s love story, Sema (starring Elif Doğan), a high school student, and Niko (starring Uğur Polat) who is training at a mechanic’s shop and is slightly older than Sema. They run into each other one day when Sema is late for school. Her dad, a local police officer (starring Erkan Can), usually drives her to school. Distracted by Sema’s tardiness, he calls her to hurry up only to find himself rear-ending a motorcycle. This scene constitutes the first coincidence of the first love story: Meet cute 1: Sema meets Niko as he opens his eyes after a gentle tumble off his vehicle. Upon eye contact with the beautiful Sema, he utters the words “Am I dead?” a line which ends up bookending their love story throughout the film. The Niko-Sema love story is contextualized in the social and family structure of 1960s Turkey where it was not uncommon for a high school girl to start considering her options for marriage at a young age. While casual dating and any aspect of premarital sex would have been taboo, this type of romance was encouraged in some families with the hope of young people entering into a marriage grounded in both logic and love. This idea is repeatedly expressed throughout the film’s narrative as the relationship between Sema and Niko unfolds, featuring their families’ reception of their love story. The film then flash-forwards to 2011-Ankara, where the audience meets Kerem (starring Yiğit Kirazcı), an attractive and charismatic young man with his soon-to-be-ex-girlfriend, Aylin (starring Türkü Turan), at a night club where the beautiful and talented Defne (staring Nesrin Cavadzade) takes the stage to perform a song, “I had a Dream Last Night.” Her voice captures Kerem’s attention. Kerem is [End Page 126] captivated by Defne and can’t keep his eyes off her despite his girlfriend’s attempts to distract him from the stage. Kerem and Defne make eye contact right before Aylin drags Kerem off: Meet Cute 2, which is followed by a montage of letter-writing from the 1960s and texting from the new millennium as couples-to-be connected on the eve of their budding romances. Indeed, all four main characters do pair up, Sema with Niko and Defne with Kerem in no time. How romantic advances are shared may have changed, but the gist of it remains the same. In presenting two intertwined and parallel love stories, the film comments on how romance and relationships have changed over time. The ease of connecting with a new potential partner in contemporary modern societies is contrasted to the slow-moving romantic communication, from decades ago, between two people via handwritten notes messengered by a young boy. The cautious conversations between a young couple of the 1960s is juxtaposed to a contemporary couple hooking up immediately after their first face-to-face encounter. The filmmakers acknowledge and highlight these changes and variations. At some points, however, this happens at the expense of an authentic representation of romance in Turkish culture...

Analysis of Changes in Physical Strength over Time in Recent School-Age Students: Proposal for Multi-year Span Evaluation Chart with the O Model

For school-age children to lead healthy lives, they need suitable physical abilities for those lives. Together with this, measurements of physical strength and motor ability to assess those abilities could be considered essential. The physical strength of children has declined in recent years, and City O in the Kansai area of Japan has implemented an action plan to address the problem. This action plan was developed from a survey continued over seven years of the physique, physical strength, and motor abilities of fifth grade elementary school students and second year junior high school (seventh grade) students. To assess the efficacy of City O’s action plan, this study analyzed trends in strength and motor ability over seven years to examine whether trends were rising or falling. The method adopted for this plan was to measure the same items as those in the strength and motor ability survey conducted by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. The wavelet interpolation model was applied to the multi-year trends in the results obtained over seven years to examine whether they were improving or declining. An improving trend was seen with time in the physical strength and motor ability of second-year junior high school girls. One may infer that behind the improving trend over time were the effects from City O’s action plan. The background for the improving trend seen over the years seen in second year junior high school girls but not boys may include that girls were originally less active than boys and but were encouraged to be active by the action plan. Because the second year of junior high school is the period of late puberty for girls, and is a time when they are approaching their developmental peak in physical strength, it may be inferred that the increase in physical strength was affected by factors in the action plan. In this study, a new evaluation chart that considers trends over years was established using the wavelet interpolation model, and the efficacy of the multi-year span evaluation chart for physical strength is presented as the O model.

Effectiveness of a Physical Strength Improvement System in School-Age Children Based on the Action Plan of City O

For school-age children to live with health and vitality in modern society, they need suitable physical strength and athletic ability, and measurements of physical strength and athletic ability that assesses those abilities are often considered essential. To address the problem of declining physical strength in recent years, City O has adopted an action plan. This action plan was established from a continuous 7-year survey of physique, physical strength, and athletic ability in fifth grade elementary school students and second year junior high school students. This study, to assess the effectiveness of City O’s action plan, examined whether the trends in physical strength and athletic ability over those 7 years were rising or falling by analyzing the changes over time. The system adopted in this action plan is to measure the same items as in the physical strength and athletic ability survey conducted by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. From the results it is thought that an increase in exercise time was one factor in increased physical strength in City O. Behind this increase in exercise time was an increase in the percentage of children who belonged to a school team or sports club, and an increase in the percentage who responded that “Physical education class is fun.” Above all was that action plans were included in the annual programs of all elementary and junior high schools in City O. and intentionally and systematically implemented. Therefore, in the system for increased physical strength and athletic ability based on the action plan of City O, exercise and physical activity time is ensured with participation in school teams or sports clubs. Furthermore, it is recognized that increasing the percentage of students who say that “physical education class is fun” was effective in raising the total score for physical strength and athletic ability over time. Particularly in second year junior high school girls, it would seem that the optimal valid physical strength of City O junior high school students could be advocated as a model for improving physical strength and athletic ability.

Social self-efficacy and sexual communication among adolescents in the United States: a cross-sectional study.

Data were collected in a cross-sectional survey from 222 high school girls in a rural school district in the south-eastern United States (Mage = 15.2; 38% White, 29% Latina, 24% Black; 50% were in a dating relationship in the past 3 months). Variables were measured with Likert-type scales. Bivariate correlation and regression analyses were conducted. Social self-efficacy was significantly positively associated with sexual assertiveness and sexual communication self-efficacy for all girls, and there was a positive trend in the relationship between social self-efficacy and communication frequency among the subsample of girls who had a dating partner. The significant relationship with sexual assertiveness (β = 0.22, s.e. = 0.07, P = 0.001) and sexual communication self-efficacy (β = 0.17, s.e. = 0.04, P = 0.013) remained when controlling for sexual activity status. Strengthening social self-efficacy may enhance girls' sexual communication and assertiveness skills. Future studies are needed to confirm the causal and temporal nature of these associations.

I don’t have bad Hand-Writing: To Measure the Level of Dysgraphia Among School Children

The purpose of this study was to study to measure the level of dysgraphia among school children. Dysgraphia is actually an inability to write properly within the given margins and space. Many other tests were used in previous research to assess the dysgraphia. Dysgraphia questionnaire was used. It is 22 items scales which is divided into 3 subscales (difficulty in cognition, disorganized motor ability and difficulty in problem solving). Subscale named difficulty in cognition contains 9 items, subscale named disorganized motor ability contains 7 items and subscale named difficulty in problem solving contain 6 items. This study is based on survey method. The sample of (N=100) students both male and female was selected from Muslims Girls High school and nearby available students of class 6th to 10th and age range from 8 to 16 years by convenient sampling method. There is a significant positive relationship between DIC (Difficulty in Cognition) and DMA (Disorganized Motor Ability) that mean students having disorganized cognitions having disorganized motor abilities as well. There is significant positive relationship between DIC and PS as well that mean problem solving, and cognitions are strongly related to each other and have strong impact. There is a significant positive difference problem solving and age which mean problem solving ability varies with age. There is a significant positive difference between DMA and age as well. There exists a significant difference between PS and family system. A significant difference exits between PS and class of the participant.
