Violence Suffered by the Main Character in Jay Asher’s Thirteen Reasons Why

Violence still often occurs both in the school environment and outside the school. Women have always been the victims of violence perpetrated by men because women are considered inferior beings. Jay Asher's novel Thirteen Reasons Why (2017) tells about thirteen reasons why Hannah Baker committed suicide, which were told in a recording. The researcher aimed to analyze the violence that Hannah Baker suffered in this study and the way she was affected by the violent acts using the theory of violence developed by Galtung (1990). The main data were obtained from Jay Asher's novel entitled Thirteen Reasons Why in the form of words, phrases, and sentences. After the data had been collected, the researcher started to classify them. The results revealed that Hannah experienced psychological, physical, and sexual violence. She was also treated very badly by people in her surroundings; one of whom even raped her. Thus, in the end she committed suicide because she could not bear the pressure in her life. The readers should comprehend the risks of teen stress and violence by examining the main topic and data, as experienced by Hannah Baker. For future studies, the researcher's suggestion was to use other viewpoints from the book and other theories of violence.

Exploring Teens as Robot Operators, Users and Witnesses in the Wild.

As social robots continue to show promise as assistive technologies, the exploration of appropriate and impactful robot behaviors is key to their eventual success. Teens are a unique population given their vulnerability to stress leading to both mental and physical illness. Much of teen stress stems from school, making the school environment an ideal location for a stress reducing technology. The goal of this mixed-methods study was to understand teens' operation of, and responsiveness to, a robot only capable of movement compared to a robot only capable of speech. Stemming from a human-centered approach, we introduce a Participatory Wizard of Oz (PWoz) interaction method that engaged teens as operators, users, and witnesses in a uniquely transparent interaction. In this paper, we illustrate the use of the PWoz interaction method as well as how it helps identify engaging robot interactions. Using this technique, we present results from a study with 62 teens that includes details of the complexity of teen stress and a significant reduction in negative attitudes toward robots after interactions. We analyzed the teens' interactions with both the verbal and non-verbal robots and identified strong themes of (1) authenticity, (2) empathy, (3) emotional engagement, and (4) imperfection creates connection. Finally, we reflect on the benefits and limitations of the PWoz method and our study to identify next steps toward the design and development of our social robot.

Mental Stress in Teens

The aim of the present research study to develop a questionnaire to measure stress levels in adolescents, i.e., 13-to-19-year old’s, so that all problems can be prevented and resolved by verifying all aspects. Due to the unrestricted use of smartphones as well as the accessibility and cheap availability of the internet, parental pressure towards education, parental misunderstandings among children and online learning during the coronavirus pandemic have led to increased stress level. And many older adolescents have been found to be suffering from physical symptoms due to stress. I prepared 300 statements and collected data at random from 6750 persons in the age group in the quiz. Based on that, 46.5% of the children lost their eyesight; 40.2% of children had a decreased ability to learn; 0.7% of children are victims of violence; Means 8% of children have increased irritability; 63.7% of children play mobile games. In this situation, parents should take their children to the field with them to play sports. Thus, the stress is increasing among the children somewhere. We will continue our efforts to reduce the stress in some ways. and designed a questionnaire to check the level of stress.

Giving Teens a Voice: Sources of Stress for High School Students

Teen stress is a pressing health issue in the United States. Consistent, long-lasting stress can weaken the immune system and wear down physical reserves, leaving teens susceptible to negative mental and physical health outcomes. Recent legislation in the state of Virginia (HB1604/SB953) mandates the revision of the Health and Physical Education curriculum to incorporate standards of learning (SOL) that recognize mental health and the important connections between physical and mental health. The aim of our project was to create a survey that allows teens to have a voice in the conversation about revising the health SOL in response to student-reported stress and support factors. Using convenience sampling, high schoolers (n = 332) were invited to participate in an anonymous online survey. To identify factors contributing to teen stress levels, participants were asked about their demographics, high school courses and activities, free time, and perception of the support they receive. Stress levels were then evaluated using Cohen’s validated 4-item Perceived Stress Scale. Regression and correlation analysis findings suggest that a student’s gender, homework level, amount of free and sleep time, perceived parental pressure, and family encouragement of relaxation predicted their perceived stress. Students who felt guilty taking time off or who worried about violence had higher stress levels than other teens, indicating that students’ emotions play a role in their stress perceptions. Results from this study can help school communities identify sources of teen stress and inform the development of educational instruction that helps students successfully reduce and cope with stress.

Anger without Agency: Exploring the Experiences of Stress in Adolescent Girls

Although a great deal of research has measured stressful life events and stress-related symptoms in adolescents, little research has qualitatively examined the experience of stress in teens. The purpose of this study was to utilize thematic analysis to explore how teen girls described their experiences of stress. Thirty-one girls, ages 14–18, were recruited for a study examining stress and stress-related symptoms. As part of this study, they participated in an open-ended, qualitative interview about their personal experiences of stress. Themes included the mind of stress, emotionally shutting out others, and “growing out of it.” The overarching finding was that all teen girls described anger in relation to stress. Most concerning was the predominant theme of a lack of agency in relation to affecting change or management of stress in their lives.

Mindfulness based stress reduction and citizenship education: A systemic review of the empirical literature

Mindfulness based stress reduction has been proven effective in education on several metrics of analysis, but no quantitative research has been conducted within citizenship education. Analysis was conducted across four databases, examining the field work available within citizenship education and mindfulness based stress reduction. A comprehensive and systematic review of the research base was conducted to identify the existing empirical evidence of mindfulness based stress education's impact on citizenship education (American Psychological Association Survey Shows Teen Stress Rivals That of Adults, 2014).

Gene Mediating Teen Stress Linked to Drinking Behavior

Many genes have been linked with alcoholism, several of which are involved in stress responses. Researchers believe that one of these, KCNJ6, may be a link between early-life adversity and later alcohol abuse.

School relocation and stress in teens.

Geographical relocation, with transfer to a new school, is a life transition experienced by many adolescents. The normal developmental tasks of adolescence may complicate the transition for relocated teens, particularly those with inadequate coping skills. This 2-year study, conducted in an upper-middle-income suburban community in the Northeast, with highly mobile students, compared the effects of relocation on 43 teens with matched non-relocated controls. While statistical significance was found in differences between the relocated and non-relocated groups, the relocated teens were only mildly anxious. There were no significant differences between the groups for depression, hostility, life events, or coping. Implications for schools and school nursing regarding health promotion interventions with relocated adolescents are discussed.
