ABSTRACT Research on gender differences in adolescents’ life satisfaction has reported inconsistent findings to date. The present study aimed to (a) ascertain whether a gender gap in life satisfaction exists in Luxembourg, (b) estimate the predictive power of gender when controlling for well-identified predictors of life satisfaction, and (c) assess potential gender differences in our predictors’ influence on life satisfaction. We used data from 2006 to 2022 pertaining to nationally representative samples of school attendees in Luxembourg (n = 46,937) to achieve our first research goal. We relied on data collected in 2022 (n = 9,432) to achieve our two other research goals. We found boys to consistently report higher life satisfaction than girls over time. However, gender did not predict life satisfaction when controlling for our other predictors. Moreover, the influence of most of the examined factors on life satisfaction did not vary with gender.

ABSTRACT While the Internet is an important social environment, it can also be a devastating place with negative consequences for young people’s psychological well-being. This study examined associations among sociodemographic factors with patterns of participation in online activities such as gambling, betting, online shopping, videogames and eGames. A chi-square-test, Mann-Whitney U-test and multivariate correspondence analysis of an online survey administered to 1500 young people (aged 18 to 35) found gender differences with regard to digital vulnerability. Young women’s digital habits and emotional experience (insecurity, social pressure, helplessness, feeling empty and anxiety) contribute to increased risk. Younger men participate in leisure activities perceived to be less risky (videogames and eGames), while older men have a higher level of participation in activities perceived to be riskier (betting and gambling), which are associated with negative emotions. Younger subjects also experience emotions of insecurity and shame through most of their daily time on social media.
ABSTRACT 互联网是一个重要的社会环境，但同时也可能是一个对青少年心理健康产生负面影响的破坏性场所。本研究探讨了社会人口因素与参与赌博、博彩、网上购物、电子游戏和电子游戏等网络活动模式之间的关联。通过对 1500 名年轻人（18 至 35 岁）的在线调查进行卡方检验、曼-惠特尼 U 检验和多元对应分析，发现在数字脆弱性方面存在性别差异。年轻女性的数字习惯和情绪体验（不安全感、社会压力、无助感、空虚感和焦虑）导致风险增加。年轻男性参与被认为风险较低的休闲活动（电子游戏和电子游戏），而年长男性则更多参与被认为风险较高的活动（博彩和赌博），这些活动都与负面情绪有关。年轻受试者每天在社交媒体上的大部分时间也会产生不安全感和羞耻感。

ABSTRACT Academic performance could have an impact on job trajectories and socioeconomic status for societies in the future. However, only a few studies have focused on the impact of time allocation on extracurricular activity strategies. Based on that observation, we recruited 91,161 school students from 451 primary, middle, and high schools in China, and used a cross-sectional compositional data analysis approach to investigate the linkage between extracurricular activities and time allocation strategies and academic performance. Our study found that, in general, a suitable daily sleep routine is of primary importance in improving students’ academic performance. Additionally, daily exercise appears to be able to significantly facilitate higher academic performance. it’s important to note that exercising while sleep-restricted may have adverse effects. The most effective way to improve student academic performance proves to be reducing the time spent playing video games and watching short videos and replacing it with hours of sleep or exercise.

ABSTRACT The current study aims to examine the relationship between gratitude and parental support through the mediation of perceived stress and the influence of parental support on adolescent professional help-seeking for mental health problems. 1987 participants completed the survey, including 41.4% boys and 58.6% girls aged 11–15 years. The findings indicated that (i) parental support mediated the relationship between perceived stress and professional psychological help-seeking attitudes; (ii) perceived stress mediated the effect of gratitude on parental support; (iii) gratitude predicted professional psychological help-seeking attitudes through perceived stress and parental support; and (iv) gratitude predicted positively adolescents’ academic achievement. The study highlights the potential influence of parental support on adolescents’ professional help-seeking attitudes. Mental health services should be developed to be more accessible to adolescents to facilitate more independent help-seeking. Prevention and intervention programmes for adolescents may be more effective at decreasing stress symptoms by combining gratitude interventions.

ABSTRACT Little is known about the effect of father-son communication on sexual health knowledge and potential sexual health outcomes in young men. We investigated the confidence and trust that adolescent Australian males have in their fathers and whether this contributes to the use of their father as a source of sexual health information. Data analysis explored differences in confidence, trust, and use of fathers as a source of sexual health information among male, female, and trans- and gender-diverse participants. Male participants were more confident seeking sexual health advice from their fathers, had higher trust that the information was accurate, and were more likely to use their fathers as a source of sexual health information than females and trans- and gender-diverse participants. There is evidence to indicate that father-son sex communication can play a role in increasing adolescent males’ knowledge of sexual health.

ABSTRACT Cyberbullying is a recognized public health threat with established links to physical and mental health problems. A 2-stage stratified random cluster analysis of data from a self-administered survey on health-related behaviours including 1,683 adolescents from 28 government and private schools estimated the prevalence of cyberbullying and examined potentially related psychological and behavioural factors. We identified loneliness, sleep disturbances, loss of appetite, sadness, lack of parental understanding, tobacco use, school absenteeism, and physical fights as associated factors. However, logistic regression found statistically significant higher odds only for experiencing sadness and loneliness, school absenteeism and physical fights, indicating reduction in these factors as the primary goals of comprehensive cyberbullying prevention programs to protect the health and wellbeing of adolescent.

ABSTRACT Youth participation and activism are considered key factors in making the world a fairer, more inclusive, and sustainable place. In line with this idea, in this work, we aim to understand how young people who actively participate in social organizations perceive the characteristics that define young ‘mindchangers.’ By this concept, we refer to a young citizen who is committed to social justice and willing to change society’s mindsets and catalyse active participation among their peers. In our research design, we adopted a quantitative methodological approach using a survey procedure. The results reveal a high level of agreement on the traits that define a Mindchanger. We conclude by emphasizing that the characteristics to which young respondents attribute the highest importance, such as ‘promoter of change’, ‘open-minded’, ‘interest in global issues’, ‘open to international solidarity’ and ‘empathy’, appear to have the greatest influence on the likelihood of becoming a Mindchanger.
