In response to the alarmingly high incidence and negative consequences of child sexual abuse, an increasing number of school-based prevention programs have appeared in communities across the United States. In this paper, programs which have been implemented in grades K-6 are summarized according to mode and content of presentation, audience and trainer characteristics, and program length. While many creative and entertaining prevention programs are available for children, empirical validation of these programs has lagged behind their actual development and implementation. Several research questions need to be addressed before we can confidently assert that such programs are effective in preventing the sexual exploitation of children. Evaluation efforts must be expanded in order to improve existing materials, obtain funding, and ensure public and professional support for school-based sexual abuse prevention programs. Etats-Unis un nombre toujours plus grand d'ecoles mettent sur pied des programmes de prevention des s&ices sexuels. Cette situation est une reaction 21 fa decouverte que ces s&ices sont frequents et tres nefastes pour les enfants. La prksente etude passe en revue des programmes de prevention qui ont ete utilises dans les classes scolaires de K-6 (Kindergarten au sixieme degre). Les programmes ont eti: Ctudies en fonction de leur mode de prksentation, de leur contenu, des caractkristiques des enfants 21 qui ils s'adressaient ainsi que les caractkristiques des moniteurs et en fonction de leur durtSe Cgalement. Les programmes existants sont nombreux et font souvent preuve de crkativit6 et sont intkressants pour les enfants; cependant I'bvaluation de leur valeur n'a pas suivi leur creation et leur mise en route. On doit se poser plusieurs questions du point de we de la recherche avant d'affrmer que de tels programmes sont efficaces et prkviennent I'exploitation sexuelle des enfants. Cet effort d'~valuation est important parce qu'il permettra d'ameliorer le materiel utilisk, d'obtenir un financement meilleur, et surtout de convaincre fe public et les personnes de la profession que ces programmes prtventifs mkritent d'&tre soutenus. [l], the rationale for prevention rests on a number of realities about child sexual abuse. First, based on population surveys, a large number of children appear to be potential victims of sexuai exploitations. Second, adults who were victimized as children often report that they would have been spared if they had been provided with basic information about the inappropriateness of the adult perpetrator's behavior. Finally, despite increases in the availability of treatment services for victims of sexual abuse, many abused children do not reveal their victimization, and when they do, families are often reluctant to seek assistance. Treatment programs are thus likely to assist only a small percentage of victims. In his recent theory of sexual abuse, Finkelhor asserts that in order for sexual abuse to occur, the potential offender must have some motivation to abuse and must overcome internal inhibitions, external impediments, and also the child's resistance 123. Thus, one key variable in predicting abuse is the child's capacity to avoid or resist exploitation.

This report aims to identify those individual and environmental factors, which militate against school completion by young people in the catchment area of the South West Inner City. It identifies key issues for appropriate interventions with regard to school completion.

This chapter presents strategies that teachers can use for preventing and dealing with students’ behavior problems in the school community. These strategies are based on behavioral, cognitive behavioral, ecosystemic, and humanistic approaches. The basic premise of this chapter is that the effectiveness of prevention and intervention is enhanced when strategies from all these approaches are used by educators. The basic principles of behavioral, cognitive behavioral, ecosystemic, and humanistic models are briefly presented based on which, management strategies are described that teachers can implement to prevent and deal with children’s behavior problems as well as to increase desirable behaviors. These prevention and intervention programs are delivered at the individual, classroom, whole school, and family levels. Specific examples are given for all these strategies. Finally, two case studies or scenarios are presented with the aim of illuminating the effective use of these strategies in real situations within the school community.

Cel pracy:
Celem badań było poznanie częstotliwości występowania przemocy rówieśniczej wśród młodzieży w wieku 15-19 lat w powiecie chojnickim z uwzględnieniem jej form (fizycznej, psychicznej i napaści) oraz dokonanie analizy wpływu płci i miejsca zamieszkania na doświadczanie tego rodzaju przemocy.

Materiał i metody:
Materiał badawczy uzyskano za pomocą metody próby celowej do wyselekcjonowania uczestników badania, z uwzględnieniem zbliżonej liczby badanych w poszczególnych grupach. Narzędziem zbierania danych był kwestionariusz ankiety zawierający pytania zamknięte i otwarte. W kwestionariuszu skupiono się na częstotliwości doświadczania różnych form przemocy rówieśniczej (fizycznej, psychicznej), mierzonej skala Likerta, a także na percepcji wsparcia społecznego i dostępnych form pomocy.

Wyniki:
Wyniki wskazują, że większość badanych nigdy nie była ofiarą napaści ze strony rówieśników, choć pewien odsetek respondentów zgłaszał pojedyncze lub wielokrotne doświadczenia. Nie stwierdzono statystycznie istotnych różnic w doświadczaniu napaści między płciami ani miejscem zamieszkania. Podobnie, przemoc fizyczna występowała wśród respondentów, jednak bez znaczących różnic pomiędzy grupami. Natomiast przemoc psychiczna była bardziej powszechna.

Wnioski:
W świetle uzyskanych wyników zachodzi konieczność dalszych badań nad przemocą rówieśniczą, aby lepiej zrozumieć jej przyczyny, skutki oraz skuteczne metody zapobiegania. Ponadto, wyniki badań wskazują na potrzebę implementacji programów edukacyjnych i interwencyjnych, które promowałyby pozytywne relacje między rówieśnikami oraz rozwijały umiejętności radzenia sobie i empatii, szczególnie wśród grup najbardziej narażonych na przemoc.

Cilj rada je da se procijeni da li struktura porodice učenika osnovne škole utiče na njihov uspjeh. Važno je naglasiti da ovaj rad predstavlja prikaz malog segmenta sveobuhvatnog istraživanja koje je imalo za cilj procjenu uticaja strukture porodice učenika osnovne škole na njihovo ponašanje. Za potrebe ovog istraživanja konstruisan je upitnik. Istraživanjem je obuhvaćeno 100 učenika šestih i sedmih razreda osnovne škole po devetogodišnjem konceptu školovanja, a koji pohađaju OŠ "Sjenjak" u Tuzli. Od ukupnog broja učenika, njih 77 je imalo oba roditelja, 15 je imalo jednog roditelja, a 8 učenika je bez roditeljskog staranja, odnosno nema roditelje. U radu su od deskriptivnih statističkih parametara izračunate apsolutne i postotne učestalosti. Testiranje je provedeno primjenom hi-kvadrat testa. Hipoteza je testirana zahtjevnim alfa nivoom značajnosti od 95% tj. 5% rizika (0,05). Realizovani rezultati u radu su prikazani tabelarno i grafički. Utvrđeno je da je najveći broj učenika koji su imali oba roditelja imao odličan, vrlodobar i dobar uspjeh u odnosu na učenike koji su imali jednog roditelja, a pogotovo u odnosu na učenike bez roditelja. Realizovani hi-kvadrat test je jednak 25,1276. S obzirom da je izračunati hi-kvadrat veći od granične vrijednosti hi-kvadrata uz 4 stepena slobode, može se zaključiti da učenici sa oba roditelja, odnosno oni koji žive u potpunim porodicama imaju statistički značajno bolji uspjeh u odnosu na ostale učenike.

The aim of this study is to assess whether the structure of the family of primary school students affects their success. It is important to emphasize that this paper is an account of a small segment of the overall research that is aimed at assessing the impact of family structure of primary school students on their behavior. For the purposes of the research constructed questionnaire. The study included 100 students in the sixth and seventh-graders at nine-concept studies at elementary school “Sjenjak” in Tuzla. Of the total number of students, 77 had both parents, 15 had one parent, and 8 students without parental care.From descriptive statistical parameters calculated absolute and percentage frequency. Testing conducted using the hi-square test. The hypothesis tested by challenging the alpha level of significance of 95%, or 5% risk (0,05). Realized results in the paper presented in tables and graphs. It found that most of the students who had both parents had excellent, very good a...

2) To provide an analysis of children- and youth-focused violence prevention programs currently offered by non-profit organizations in Calgary, Alberta;
3) To provide recommendations to inform subsequent phases for developing a strategic coordinated community approach to violence prevention programming for children and youth in Calgary.

This research identified various types of violence prevention programming offered throughout Calgary, specifically identifying the differences between school and community-based programs and universal/targeted approaches.

Throughout the scientific literature shows that studies evaluating the effectiveness of school-based substance abuse prevention programs have used a wide range of intervention agents. Nevertheless, in Spain, the school-based programs in daily practice, the vast majority, are applied only by regular classroom teachers of schools. In this regard, some research suggests that the variable type of applicator affects the effectiveness of school-based programs for drug prevention. This article presents a review of studies comparing the results obtained in the school-based programs when applied by regular classroom teachers to other external contributors. Taken together, the results of the reviewed studies are contradictory and, therefore, the evidence is not conclusive. However, it highlights the moderating role of the variable type of monitor on the effects of programs. Finally, it is recommended to lead studies to evaluate the specific characteristics or skills that must have an effectiv...

El propósito general de este trabajo se encuadra en la línea de investigaciones que pretenden elevar los niveles de calidad de las estrategias preventivas desarrolladas, analizando la eficacia diferencial de los programas escolares al variar el perfil de las personas encargadas de implementarlos. Para ello, compara los resultados de la aplicación de tres programas de prevención escolar sobre el consumo de cannabis y las actitudes hacia su consumo, en función del tipo de aplicador empleado. La muestra se compuso de 280 alumnos de 1º de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO), distribuidos en siete condiciones experimentales: seis de tratamiento (grupos experimentales) y otra en lista de espera (grupo control). Los grupos experimentales estuvieron determinados por la existencia de dos factores: Tipo de programa (programa Construyendo Salud, programa Saluda, programa Barbacana y Grupo Control) y tipo de Agente de aplicación (profesor habitual o psicólogo externo). Los profesores obtiene...

This article explores the effectiveness of preventive interventions to smoking initiation in adolescents in school environment; it shows relevant aspects that account for the success or failure of those interventions and provides to professionals interested in the topic a selection of preventive strategies based on scientific evidence with the greatest impact when they are applied. It is concluded that the effectiveness of prevention programs on cigarette smoking initiation is partial and limited, because other interventions such as regulation of smoke-free areas, high price or control of sale and distribution are as important as the direct action on the new potential smokers.

(PSQ) consists of 11 questions designed to assess children's knowledge about sexual abuse (e.g., "Is it OK for kids to touch a bigger person's private parts?") and attitudes toward sexuality (e.g., "Is it OK for kids to touch their own private parts?"). Children respond by saying "Yes," "No" or "I don't know." Correct answers receive 1 point (scores range from 0-11). Two-month test-retest reliability (Pearson r) was .54, p < .02 in Wurtele, Gillispie, Currier, & Franklin, 1992.

W artykule przedstawiono pogłębione wyniki Diagnozy przemocy wobec dzieci w Polsce 2023. Badanie przeprowadzono na ogólnopolskiej próbie N = 1392 nastolatków wwieku 13–17 lat. W badaniu wykorzystano polską adaptację Kwestionariusza wiktymizacji młodzieży (Juvenile Victimization Questionnaire), która zawierała pytania o 24 formy wiktymizacji podzielone na osiem szerszych kategorii. Wśród badanych nastolatków 68% doświadczyło przemocy rówieśniczej, 34,6% – przemocy ze strony bliskich dorosłych, 25,6% – wykorzystywania seksualnego bez kontaktu fizycznego, 23,6% – zaniedbania emocjonalnego, 19,7%– parentyfikacji, 14,7% – wiktymizacji pośredniej, 8,3% – zaniedbania fizycznego i 7,9% – wykorzystywania seksualnego z kontaktem fizycznym. Analiza klas latentnych pozwoliła zidentyfikować trzy klasy dzieci krzywdzonych sklasyfikowanych jako: klasa 1 – osoby najmniej obciążone wiktymizacją (65,2%), klasa 2 – osoby, które doświadczyły przemocy ze strony bliskich dorosłych i przemocy rówieśniczej (25,3%), i klasa 3 – osoby w największym stopniu obciążone wiktymizacją (9,5%). Za pomocą analizy regresji logistycznej określono predyktory przynależności do klasy 3. Szansa znalezienia się w tej klasie była mniejsza w przypadku chłopców niż dziewczyn (AOR = 0,24) oraz respondentów, którzy deklarowali posiadane wsparcie społeczne ze strony dorosłych (AOR = 0,39). Szansa była większa w przypadku mieszkańców miast niż wsi (AOR = 1,55) oraz rosła z wiekiem respondentów (AOR = 1,58). Zwiększały ją dysfunkcje rodzinne: nadużywanie alkoholu przez domownika (AOR = 3,46), używanie narkotyków przez domownika (AOR = 2,39) i choroba psychiczna domownika (AOR = 2,64). Skategoryzowanie dzieci doświadczających przemocy z pomocą metod statystycznych otwiera nowe możliwości badawcze, aby jeszcze lepiej określić to zjawisko, oraz może stanowić podstawę działań profilaktycznych celowanych do konkretnych klas odbiorców.

This narrative review explored the efficacy of school-based child sexual abuse prevention programmes between 1990 and 2002. There were 22 efficacy studies which met clear inclusion criteria. Results covered both methodological design and the range of outcome measures. Methodology was analysed through four dimensions (target population, prevention programme implementation, evaluation methodology and cost-effectiveness). Outcomes for children covered nine categories (knowledge, skills, emotion, perception of risk, touch discrimination, reported response to actual threat/abuse, disclosure, negative effects and maintenance of gains). The studies had many methodological limitations. Prevention programmes had a measure of effectiveness in increasing children's awareness of child sexual abuse as well as selfprotective skills. There was no evidence to demonstrate that programmes protected children from intra-familial sexual abuse. For a small number of children prevention programmes produced minimal negative emotional effects. Recommendations for future research and policy and practice were provided.

Programmes of violence prevention in community: presentation and some indicators of success of the program Tribo Moderna Capoirea Recently, programmes whose aim is to cover a wider area of children's living environment and are trying to provide more comprehensive activities, especially in terms of sociopedagogical profession, have been developed. An example of such a program is Tribo Modern Capoiera , aimed at preventing violence against children. The general objective of the program is to contribute to the achievement of healthy lifestyles of children through Capoeira, and the specific objectives of the project are to increase the social inclusion of vulnerable groups of children and empower vulnerable families. The purpose of this thesis is to present the mentioned program through all its elements and characteristics. The thesis presents some success indicators from the perspective of different stakeholders: users, parents, mentors and supervisors. These indicators can be used as guidelines for improvement of this program and development of the new programs.

Peer review and self-review were introduced in an Information literacy course. For students to make a review, they need to be self-reflective and develop critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. This research looked at correlations and/or differences between review and teacher scoring. Data were collected within the first-year curricula in Health Sciences. Students conducted a self-review and two peer reviews of search reports according to predefined criteria. The teacher also scored every search report. Pearson's r and paired-sample t-tests were con ducted. Results: Overall, strong correlations were found. Moderate correlations were found between peer review and self-review, which does not hold for the different curricula. Between self-review and teacher score, theré is a moderate correlation that does hold for the separate curricula. Teacher scores are significantly lower than peer review and self-review, self-review scores are significantly higher than peer review scores. This study confirms the importance of the teacher as an evaluator.

We know more now than we ever have about how learning happens. But there are still many questions to be answered and, too often, important insights from research aren&#39;t communicated to the very people who could use it most - the educators who work with our children on a daily basis. This research agenda for the next generation makes recommendations for a new research paradigm that bridges the divide between scholarly research and what&#39;s actionable in our classrooms, schools, and communities

Sažetak: U zadnjih 20 godina prostor odgoja i obrazovanja a naročito (srednja) škola postao je osrednje mjesto provođenja preventive na području upotrebe i zloupotrebe droga.

However, the age border at which children and youngsters meet drugs for the first time has lowered; down to the period when children still go to primary school. Therefore the activities of prevention of drug use and abuse have expanded considerably also on this educational level. In the paper we shall deal with the influence and efficiency of...

Sažetak Rad opisuje pilot evaluaciju informatičkog paketa SMS-informativke (SMSi), ponajprije namijenjenog unapređivanju informiranja i komunikacije između nastavnika, učenika i njihovih roditelja. Istraživanje je pripremljeno i provedeno u razdoblju između ožujka i svibnja 2008. godine, u tri zagrebačke osnovne škole u kojima su obuhvaćeni učenici osam 6. i 7. razreda te njihovi roditelji, a obavljeni su i intervjui s nastavnicima koji su se već neko vrijeme koristili uslugom. Ukupno su anketirana 163 učenika, od kojih je 69 (42,3%) bilo uključeno u SMSi, i 202 njihovih roditelja (84 ili 41,6% koristilo se uslugom). Analiza prikupljenih podataka temelji se na provjeri pet hipoteza o potencijalnim intendiranim i neintendiranim efektima SMSi servisa. Nalazi pokazuju da korištenje usluge može imati pozitivan učinak na informiranje učenika o nastavnim i izvannastavnim sadržajima, komunikaciju između roditelja i nastavnika te roditelja i njihove djece, kao i na samopercipiranu roditeljsku kontrolu. Utvrđeno je, također, da roditelji koji su uključeni u SMSi iskazuju mnogo veće zadovoljstvo školom koju njihovo dijete pohađa od roditelja iz kontrole skupine. Prikupljeni podatci ne upućuju na tendenciju supstitucije izravnog kontakta roditelja i nastavnika (u školi) neizravnim (SMSi). S obzirom na niz metodoloških ograničenja studije, u budućnosti će biti potrebno provesti opsežnije i preciznije (bolje kontrolirano) evaluacijsko istraživanje, kako bi se provjerili ovi preliminarni rezultati. Ključne riječi: pilot evaluacija, informatički paket, SMS-informativka, komunikacija učenika, roditelja i nastavnika.

This study examined parental perspectives on educating children about child sexual abuse (CSA) and personal safety. Twenty-four focus groups consisting of 144 parents or guardians (89% female) of children between the ages of 3 and 11 years were conducted in four areas of the U.S. (Northeast, Southeast, Mid-West, West). Parents were recruited through schools and community agencies. Participants viewed the family videos from the Second Step Child Protection Unit and then discussed their perspectives on parenting and sexual abuse prevention. The conversations were audio-recorded, transcribed, and analyzed qualitatively using a thematic approach. A major theme was that parents encountered barriers and challenges in their efforts to protect children and educate them about CSA. These included ambiguous safety messages for children; denial that their child could be at risk; personal discomfort with the topic; fear of ruining their child's innocence; and limitations imposed by gender role stereotypes. Additional challenges emerged from a sub-sample of groups from low-resourced communities. Many of these parents described challenges in overcoming intergenerational abuse and the culture of silence that surrounds it; fear of reporting CSA due to mistrust of authorities; and lack of options for safe child care. Results suggest that prevention programming should be tailored to the communities in which it will be presented, with attention given to reducing ambiguities in messaging and improving access to resources in low-resourced communities. Findings are interpreted within the framework of Protection Motivation Theory.

Hugs and Kisses is a theatre-based child sexual abuse (CSA) prevention program designed for children in kindergarten through fifth grades. The purpose of this cross-sectional case study is to evaluate how a comprehensive live musical theatre program can prepare teachers to discuss and identify the signs of CSA, help children increase their knowledge, and learn prevention strategies to stop CSA in the future. A total of 154 teachers and 2,700 children from 31 schools participated in this program during 2016. Findings show this program increases children's awareness of touch and action knowledge through five primary safety lessons taught during the program and reinforced by a teacher led in-person discussion after the play. Nearly 85% of the students across all grade levels in this sample understood the lessons taught in the play, and students whose teachers held an in-class discussion after the play scored better than those students whose teachers did not hold a discussion. Teachers who were prepared with training resources also held longer in-class discussions compared to those who were not prepared. The Hugs play has the potential to be a national model for evidence-based CSA programs.

Se presentan los resultados de un meta-análisis sobre la eficacia de los programas para prevenir el abuso de drogas con metodología interactiva, aplicados en el contexto escolar en España. Se identificaron 15 estudios independientes que cumplieron los criterios de selección, procedentes de 9 informes de investigación realizados entre 1985 y 2002. El tamaño del efecto medio global reveló que los programas son eficaces, aunque su eficacia es pequeña en el postest (d+ = 0,20), tendiendo a incrementarse en el seguimiento (d+ = 0,38). Los programas resultaron más eficaces con el alcohol que con el tabaco u otras drogas. La variable dependiente en la que obtuvieron más éxito fue en la reducción del consumo, por encima de la mejora del conocimiento y de las actitudes hacia las drogas. El componente presente en la totalidad de programas fue la información sobre las sustancias. Se discuten estos hallazgos y se señalan sugerencias para futuras investigaciones. The study reports the results of...

Burnout syndrome is a widely researched phenomenon and is the focus of numerous scientific studies. Research results show a prevalence of contextual factors in relation to individual factors for its emergence and development, as well as certain differences in approaches to the problem in different countries. Given the specificity of helping professions, which recognize and work within educational institutions, &quot;helpers&quot; are exposed to the greatest professional stress and the risk of burnout syndrome. The aim of this paper is to examine the contextual factors within the educational system that can influence the occurrence and development of burnout syndrome, with a focus on emphasizing the importance and possibilities of prevention through organizational changes. Therefore, the paper starts from the specificity of burnout syndrome related to helping professions, educated to provide help and support to others. After that, insights into visible or experienced consequences for...

Prevention programs and interventions in the field of drug abuse are designed to reduce the incidence of onset of substance use, but they can also produce harms. This is the reason why rigorous evaluations are absolutely needed. In Europe, in spite of the large spread of such interventions, they are rarely evaluated with rigorous study designs. For these reasons it is important to promote the evaluation of every program that can be considered of relevance. This would allow the other practitioners to choose the interventions on the base of evidence of effectiveness. But which kind of evaluation prevention programs needed? There is a substantial agreement on the role of the randomized evaluation. Randomization is the only effective way to control for numerous factors that can bias the results. The typical evaluation design associated to most part of intervention programs, the pre-post assessment, cannot produce unbiased estimations. There are however many interventions that cannot be randomised, because they cannot be provided at the individual level (e.g like the price policies for cigarettes). These programs require an observational approach for evaluation, like a cohort or an Interrupted Time Series design. Even if these study designs have a complex methodology, the evaluation is of high relevance in order to allow the development of prevention strategies based on evidence.
