Factors affecting preventive behaviors for unplanned pregnancy in female high school students

This cross-sectional study aimed to study the factors affecting preventive behavior for unplanned pregnancy in female high school students. The participants were 498 high school students selected through multi-stage sampling and the sampling of random students from the specified educational levels of Grades 10, 11, and 12 was conducted by using the following inclusion criteria: be a student aged 15-18 years; be a student attending Grade 10, 11, or 12. The data were analyzed by using mean, standard deviation, and binary logistic regression. The results showed that seven factors affected behavior concerning unplanned pregnancy in female high school students including: the educational levels in Grade 12 (OR = 10.65, 95% CI = 1.35 - 83.50), the latest GPA ≥ 3.51 (OR = 9.00, 95% CI = 1.45 - 55.99), the knowledge of birth control (OR = 22.12, 95% CI = 2.43 - 201.81), the attitude toward birth control and pregnancy prevention (OR = 4.15, 95% CI = 1.38 - 12.43), perception of the risk of pregnancy from sexual relationships (OR = 3.79, 95% CI = 1.56 - 9.21), the perception of self-efficacy to prevent pregnancy (OR = 5.31, 95% CI = 2.89 - 9.73), and the self-esteem (OR = 4.24, 95% CI = 1.87 - 9.61). These factors had a 79.10% chance of predicting unplanned pregnancy preventing behaviors in high school students. This study suggests that schools or related organizations should develop health education programs for preventing unplanned pregnancies including knowledge, attitudes, self-efficacy, and self-esteem.

Development of a High-School Students' Version of the Daily Conversation Scale with Classroom Teachers

Objective This study was intended to develop a "High-School Students' Version of the Daily Conversation Scale with Classroom Teachers" to measure the frequency of daily conversations between high-school students and their classroom teachers.Methods The study consisted of Surveys I and II. Survey I was intended to validate the structural validity and reliability of the "High-School Students' Daily Conversation Scale with Classroom Teachers (Prototype Version)." It measured the frequency of high-school students' daily conversations with classroom teachers using the prototype scale and employed confirmatory factor analysis and item response theory to assess the factor measurement model and item performance, respectively. Internal consistency was evaluated using McDonald's ω (omega) reliability coefficient. Study II was intended to validate the prototype scale through hypothesis testing. The survey assessed daily conversation frequency, teacher support perception, depression/anxiety, and the teacher-student relationship. Two models were constructed: one predicting the impact of daily conversation frequency on support perception and depression/anxiety and the other predicting the impact on the teacher-student relationship. It was hypothesized that both models would fit well, with daily conversation frequency positively associated with support perception and relationship, and depression/anxiety negatively associated with support perception and relationship.Result The sample analyzed in Survey I consisted of 1,394 students in grades 1-3. The results of confirmatory factor analysis, item response theory, and McDonald's omega reliability coefficient met the criteria. The sample for Survey II consisted of 1,688 students in grades 1-3. The results of the analysis supported the hypothesis.Conclusion The results of this study suggest that the prototype version of the scale was conceptually unidimensional and that the difficulty level of each item was well-balanced, indicating the successful development of a "High-School Students' Version of the Daily Conversation Scale with Classroom Teachers." By using this scale and examining the effects of the frequency of daily conversation with homeroom teachers on the psychology and behavior of high-school students, we believe that it will be possible to contribute to an understanding of primary prevention measures that homeroom teachers can take to address mental health problems among their high-school students. We believe that this scale will contribute to future school health activities in the field of public health.

Impacts of education and perception on Vietnamese high school students' behaviors regarding plastic waste: the mediating role of attitude.

This study analyzed the impact of educational, perception, and attitudinal factors on the plastic waste behavior of high school students in Vietnam. A cross-sectional research design and questionnaire survey method were used to collect data from 573 high school students. All the statistical analyses and hypothesis tests were performed using SPSS 26 and AmoS 20 software. Research results show that perception does not directly affect students' behavior toward the plastic waste problem (B = 0.051, p = 0.201 > 0.05, CI = [- 0.027; 0.130]) but has an indirect impact through attitude mediation, with an impact coefficient of B = 0.107 (p = 0.016 < 0.05, CI = [0.042; 0.177]). Educational factors positively impact students' behavior toward plastic waste through both direct effects, with an impact coefficient of B = 0.546 (p = 0.00 < 0.05, CI = [0.473; 0.620], and indirect effects, mediated by attitude, with an impact coefficient of B = 0.017 (p = 0.007 < 0.05, CI = [0.003; 0.037]). These findings are new compared to previous studies, contributing to enriching theories related to behavior toward the plastic waste problem and bringing practical significance to Vietnam. The findings of this study provide the basis for proposing measures to improve plastic waste behaviors for Vietnamese high school students.

The attitude of senior pupils to the role of a witness to cyberbullying

Cyberbullying as a scientific problem is one of the popular topics in foreign and domestic literature, but the main attention of researchers is primarily focused on the relationship that arises between the aggressor and the victim. The purpose of the study, the results of which are recorded in the article, is to identify personal characteristics that contribute to or hinder the manifestations of adequate behavior of high school students who have witnessed a cyberbullying situation. The key research tool was the Cyberbullying Witness Behavior Questionnaire. An additional analysis of the personal characteristics of high school students was carried out by means of an Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire and a Short questionnaire of the "dark triad" of qualities; socio-demographic information about the respondents was also collected. In total, 268 high school students aged 16 to 18 years took part in the study (approximately an equal number of girls and boys). The study showed that an adequate type of perception of cyberbullying situations prevails in this age group, but there were also some contradictions that were fixed in the processes of interaction between parents and teachers. Students of boys and girls aged 16-18 years, who have a higher level of empathy and emotional intelligence, show a more adequate attitude to the role of a witness to cyberbullying, while schoolchildren whose personalities are characterized by elements of psychopathic accentuation are more likely to show an inadequate attitude in the appropriate situation. In conclusion, the authors conclude that systematic work on the development of aggressive behavior control skills among high school students, taking into account all personal characteristics, will contribute to reducing the number of manifestations of violence in relationships within high school students' collectives.

Analysis of Factors That Influence Snack Food Selection Behavior in High School Students

BPOM findings from 2006-2010 showed that as many as 48% of school children's snacks did not meet food safety requirements because they contained dangerous chemicals. Snacking behaviour is influenced by several factors, including knowledge, attitudes, peers, and family involvement in getting used to breakfast or providing food from home to be taken to school. This research analyses the factors influencing snack food selection behaviour among high school students. The method in this research is to examine literature reviews with the study sources used coming from published journals in Indonesia and having an ISSN relating to research. As a result of research from 124 articles reviewed, five reports were finally obtained; it was found that there was an influence of knowledge, attitudes, health education and the role of authoritarianism on high school children's snack choices. Shows that knowledge, attitudes, health education and authoritarian roles influence food choices in children or adolescents; there are three factors, namely: (1) predisposing factors, namely factors that facilitate and underlie the occurrence of specific behaviour; (2) supporting factors that enable particular behaviour to occur, such as information media, health service infrastructure, and (3) reinforcing factors are factors that strengthen the occurrence of specific behaviour (the role of parents and the role of teachers).

Perception and behavior of high school students towards developing problem solving and creativity skills to solve physics assignments

This study aimed to explore the learning approaches and preferences of high school students in Vietnam when studying physics. A survey was completed by 2,040 students from ten different schools on improving problem-solving and creativity skills to solve physics assignments. The survey included eight topics related to homework, exchange, problem-solving tactics, and an emphasis on real-life applications of physics concepts. The results showed that the majority of students preferred essay-style calculus homework and sometimes exchanged and discussed ideas with their peers. In addition, most students focused on only some of the steps involved in solving physics problems, self-analyzed and expanded their solutions, and related the exercise content to real-life situations. The study also found that students preferred physics exercises with clear facts and suggestive questions, while a quarter of students preferred exercises with specific facts and clear questions. Furthermore, only a small percentage of students had a deep understanding of the ten core competencies outlined in the General Education Program of 2018. These findings have important implications for physics teachers in Vietnam, indicating the need for more opportunities for discussion and encouraging a comprehensive problem-solving approach. The study suggests incorporating more real-life applications of physics concepts into teaching to help students see the relevance of what they are learning.

Need for cognitive closure and prosocial behavior in high school students: The role of perspective taking and empathic concern

What impact does a strong desire for cognitive closure have on an individual's social competence? The need for cognitive closure has been examined in conjunction with a broad spectrum of psychological constructs, encompassing empathy as well. However, there have been few studies that have investigated how the need for cognitive closure affects social competence, particularly prosocial behavior. For this reason, the present study examines the impact of individuals' dispositional need for cognitive closure on prosocial behavior. Specifically, it explores the role of empathy, including perspective-taking and empathic concern, in explaining this relationship. The hypothesis proposed that a higher level of need for closure would be negatively related to prosocial behavior due to its negative association with perspective-taking and, consequently, empathic concern. Our findings provided support for the hypothesis in a sample of high school students (N = 332). The current study underscores the importance of epistemic motivation for closure in affecting social competence behaviors, highlighting the significant roles played by cognitive and affective empathy within this framework. These findings are particularly important, especially in educational settings, because these behaviors have the potential to influence students' relationships, school well-being, and other educational outcomes.
