The article analyzes the practice of the distribution of youth centres in Ukraine and their significance for modern youth. Youth centres are described as institutions that promote the development of young people, youth entrepreneurship, civic education, promote a healthy lifestyle, volunteering. The article aims to study the potential of the youth centre as an innovative institution for youth self-realization. The research methods were the analysis of normative documents, the study of the experience of the functioning of youth centres, the survey of target groups. It is determined that the modern state youth policy is focused on the introduction of innovative approaches to work with youth. It is stated that one of the priority tasks of the new institute – the youth centre – is to promote the self-realization of young people. This is ensured by the use of various forms and methods of work: non-formal education (lectures, training, workshops, working visits), interest groups, support and implementation of thematic youth projects, thematic camps, volunteering, cultural and leisure activities, talent fairs, etc. Verification of the effectiveness of youth self-realization in the conditions of the youth centre was carried out based on the Nizhyn city youth centre. The experience of interaction with different categories of young people to promote the development of soft skills, for its professional development, the formation of an active civil position, the satisfaction of interests have been highlighted. According to a survey of visitors to the youth centre, it is proved that the youth centre promotes self-realization of young people, offering a wide range of forms and methods of work, innovative practices and communications.

Full textAbstract:
The last two decades have witnessed a surge in studies of youth culture and social practice. In Africa, as elsewhere, this body of youth-centred research and writing has devoted considerable attention to specific groups within a given country's young population, while largely neglecting others seen to lack either culturally innovative or politically subversive traits. Youths in large cities and young combatants involved in insurgency or counter-insurgency have shared centre stage in studies of youthful Africa. This article argues for broadening the research agenda of African youth studies, calling for increased attention to the interpretive work performed by provincial youths as they try to understand and hopefully alter the future prospects of their communities in the new century. It shows how ideas about the meanings of globalisation and ‘the millennium’, intertwined with experiences of a recent refugee ‘crisis’, are shaping Guinean youths' socio-political reflections and yearnings. In doing so, it stresses just how complicated and cosmopolitan ‘provincial’ life, particularly for young people, has become in Guinea's forest region, as well as the variety and sophistication of the historical ‘materials’ and interpretive schemes through which these youths depict and judge possible local futures.

Full textAbstract:
This study involves a two-year longitudinal investigation of adolescent participation in unstructured youth recreation centres and the development of antisocial behaviour. Participants were 1163 adolescents who represented 92% of all eighth-grade students in the town of Örebro, Sweden, during the fall of 1999. Antisocial young people and those with poor relations to parents or school were likely to become involved in the centres. After controlling for these selection influences, the frequency of youth centre participation was associated with a significant increase in antisocial behaviour over time for boys and girls. Youth centres that aggregated many antisocial peers together were particularly likely to promote the antisocial behaviour of new attendees. The findings are consistent with prior theory and research on youth development and out-of-school activities. Activities that lack structure and skill-building aims appear to attract high-risk adolescents and the resulting social environment is conducive to the development of antisocial behaviour.

This study assessed whether participation in Swedish youth recreation centres (Fritidsgardar) is related to long-term criminality assessed from late childhood to mid adulthood. A prospective, longitudinal investigation of a representative cohort of 498 boys from a medium-sized Swedish community was employed. A pattern-analysis identi” ed ” ve configurations of boys who showed different profiles of social and academic competence at the age of 10. The configurations were compared with respect to juvenile and adult criminality for boys who did, and who did not, make the decision to participate in a youth recreation centre at age 13. Results showed that participation in youth centres was nonrandom. Boys with a multiple problem profile of both social and academic problems in school at age 10 showed more frequent participation in recreation centres at age 13. The frequency of criminal offending increased for all configurations of boys who became involved in a recreation centre. Frequent participation in youth centres was linked to high rates of juvenile offending and persistent offending (i.e., registered for one or several offences both as a juvenile and as an adult). These ” ndings held after controlling for individual, family, and economic factors prior to involvement in the youth centre. The limitations of the ” ndings and their implications for social policy are discussed.

Homeless children are unique and creative individuals. Most of the time these homeless children are based in the city center, however, they are often marginalized from the limelight. The homeless children need to be given the opportunity and the choice to improve their potential. The street corners of Banjarmasin are not the ideal home for these children. The Youth Development Center is the place to develop the potential of homeless children through creative fields with a sense of home in the design. It will be the hub for these children to express themselves through their creations and receive the opportunity to learn more without the space restriction. The Youth Development Center can also be a place for society to appreciate the homeless children’s potential. The design strategy uses the Third Place method as a space for interaction and solution of problems using the concept of Flexible Architecture so that space is defined not only by its function but by the potential of the space itself.

Full textAbstract:
This paper focuses on youth participation in decision-making processes for economic growth and development. Very little is known of the effectivity of rural youth participation in the developing world. Drawing on recent empirical evidence of youth participation in economics and development research, the paper identifies the growing interest of policy makers on shorthanded interventions aimed at improving young lives. Going beyond official blueprints and the stated objectives of international development interventions, interventions have widely emphasized the mechanical aspects of projects rather than the direct impact of interventions on young beneficiaries. Understanding this is critical for development as recent projects’ high rate of failure and unintended consequences for beneficiaries continue to grow. Based on the review of over 100 documented cases of youth participation in Africa, Asia and Latin America, the paper offers a conceptual guide, reinforced by methodological suggestions for studying the representational ‘afterlives’ of development interventions. Inspired by the phenomenological works of economic development research, the paper recognizes young voices as repositories of non-hegemonic knowledge with the ability to creatively re-appropriate development legacies. While such conclusions may have been kept under relative control, they come to fore upon the termination of interventions. A grassroots-based approach aimed at studying post-intervention communities would reveal the palimpsest-like multilayers of flagship programmes across the developing world.

Full textAbstract:
Given elevated levels of overweight/obesity among today’s youth (Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, 2008), and associated negative physical, emotional, and psychological consequences (e.g., Faith, et al., 1997; Must & Anderson, 2003), weight control programs must be critically examined. The purpose of this study was to gain understanding of youths’ experiences in a commercially available weight management program with a holistic approach. Participants included four purposefully sampled male and female youth aged 10-18, engaged in a 16-week program. Participants engaged in a semi-structured interview exploring their experiences within the program. Results indicated youth experienced positive development in the areas of physical, psychological and social skills, and highlighted specific mechanisms by which the program facilitated this development including the holistic approach, parent and peer engagement, and the required work ethic. Youth also reported negative experiences due to lack of autonomy, not reaching weight loss goals, and low enjoyment. Practical implications and future research directions are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Objective: This study aimed to explore the motives of young people in multicultural suburbs for participating in youth-centre activities. Design and setting: The study employed practice-based research with a focus on collaboration and methodological diversity. Data on motives for participation were collected in spring 2013 at two non-governmental organisation (NGO)-run youth centres located in the suburbs of two cities in Sweden using surveys and focus-group interviews. Method: The study used mixed methods, with qualitative data being used to help explain initial quantitative findings. Statistical analysis was conducted using measures of competence and social motives. Qualitative analysis used both deductive and inductive content analysis. Results: Study findings suggest that motives concerning competence development and socialising are insufficient to account for why young people in multicultural, socially disadvantaged suburbs participate in youth-centre activities. The study highlights the importance of additional motives influencing participation in leisure-time activities. The additional motives of ‘fun/undemanding’ and ‘support’ were found to be important to most young people in this study. Conclusion: Study findings suggest that motives for participation in youth-centre activities have to do with characteristics of the participants, of the neighbourhood in which the centre is located and the specific type of unstructured leisure-time activity. Future motive measurement scales should include items concerning socioeconomic status, activities provided and young people’s degree of influence over the activities in which they participate.

Adolescents under the care of Youth centers present with many risk factors related to the development of pathological gambling. This study describes gambling habits of participants under the Young Offenders Act (YOA) and participants under the Youth Protection Act (YPA), and compare these gambling habits to those of high school teenagers. Face to face interviews were conducted with 74 adolescents from two youth centers in Quebec, Canada. Results show that YOA adolescents report different gambling habits than YPA participants. The YOA adolescents constitute a subgroup at risk of developing gambling problems. Further, adolescents perceive that their time spent in Youth centers has almost no impact on their gambling habits. Findings illustrate the importance to create a prevention program targeting adolescents under the care of Youth centers.

In this work, we attempt to examine the role of strategies like arts sponsorship and culturalism in the solution of immigrant youth issues around a specific immigrant place. This is a case study that focuses on the NaunynRitze Youth Centre in Berlin-Kreuzberg, which was presented as a successful example by policy makers and the public in the 1990s when the footsteps of the crisis of multiculturalism had begun to be heard in Germany. Our research shows that the social engineering strategies shaped around a multikulti production base are not permanent or sustainable as long as these institutions are also given the responsibility of eliminating the cycle of crime and violence in addition to promote individual artistic development and subcultural entities. As long as political figures and the public opinion continue to generally see the immigrant youth as a danger to the secure and untarnished development of society, it does not appear possible for the multiculturalism and the immigrant youth work system to develop.

ABSTRACT:In the spring of 1938, Strasbourg's Jewish youth organizations inaugurated the Merkaz Ha’Noar, the community's first Jewish youth centre, which aimed to provide a safe, healthy and controlled environment for the development of young Jews in a rapidly transforming city on the border between France and Germany. The centre offered a unique location from which to reimagine Jewish and French history on the eve of World War II, and illustrates the power of the built environment of the city and its physical structures to forge new kinds of communities, identities and politics.

The article deals with the importance of national - patriotic education of schoolchildren in the institutions of tourism and educational studies and deals with the work of The Centre of national - patriotic education, tourism and local history. The analysis and the generalization of literary sources and informational sources of the Internet was carried out. The purpose of this paper is to reveal the essence and the importance of the national - patriotic education of schoolchildren. It was found that the national - patriotic education in Ukraine is the priority both for the country and for the educational system and it is one of the priority activities.
Among the various forms of educational work, which accompany the formation of general educational value of younger generation, special place belongs to the national-patriotic education.
The relevance of national - patriotic education of schoolchildren and youth is due to the processes of development and modern formation of Ukrainian society, terrible challenges, facing Ukraine at this time and demanding the further improvement of national - patriotic education.
Ukrainian State Centre of national - patriotic education, tourism and local history for student youth plays an important role in national – patriotic education of schoolchildren. The purpose of the Centre is the implementation of the state policy for the national – patriotic education of children and youth as well as the coordination of the national – patriotic education of children and youth in the education system. The Center analyzes the condition and determines the priority directions of touristic and local history work and national – patriotic education with the students in Ukraine. The main activity is national – educational direction.
The methods and the techniques of work regarding the national – patriotic education of members of the Centre are very diverse. It is complicated pedagogical process. At its core is the development of the moral feelings of schoolchildren, the education of a sense of dignity and national consciousness. The implementation of the national revival to a certain extend depends on the teachers’ professional training, their ability to delve into child’s world and to transfer them all the experience of the previous generations.
Out-of-school national – patriotic education is the organic component of general education system in Ukraine and it is aimed at the formation of the ideological consciousness, views and beliefs of schoolchildren and youth and gaining the skills and abilities according to their interests.

This article reports on an experimental civic engagement approach to link community observed cumulative effects ofnumerous local events and periods of resource development to indicators for sustainable forest and land management forthe future. We describe a process where the interview findings with 28 key aboriginal and non-aboriginal informants inthe Champagne Aishihik First Nations’ (CAFN) Traditional Territory were summarized into key themes by researchersin a community workshop to elicit a selection of social indicators for future cumulative effects assessments. Theseresponses were visions for the future based on a great deal of experiential learning that interviewees identified—part andparcel of any betterment to the community as new developments unfold. Themes such as “social healing” were furtherbroken into indicators such as “community support systems” and then further broken into local measures, such as “thepresence of, and access to, a youth centre, youth programs, and youth centres”. The local historical approach to cumulativeeffects assessment helps us not only understand more about forestry, but more about the broader connectionsbetween community members and leaders, forestry and other resource developments, and lessons people have learnedfrom the past and visions for the future.Key words: civic engagement, cumulative social impacts, social indicators, sustainable forest management, NorthernCanada

Full textAbstract:
The mosque is one of the most important places for the Muslim community to practice religious values (such as prayer and remembrance), which are also integrated with muamalah in their daily lives. However, in this era of modernization, there is a phenomenon that is quite strange and occurs in big cities like Yogyakarta, namely the decreasing awareness and interest of youths to visit mosques. When youths are away from the mosque, they tend to be free from control to engage in immoral behavior, for example, engaging in acts of delinquency. Therefore, an alternative model that is offered and can be used to overcome juvenile delinquency is to make the mosque a place for character building and the cadre of youths. Youth development in mosques aims to explore youth resources born from mosque-based programs to create youth who have noble and Qur'anic morals who can make a positive contribution to the benefit and welfare of society as a whole. Because historically, the mosque at the time of the Prophet Muhammad played a very important and broad role, that is, the mosque did not only function as a place of worship (such as praying, praying, and remembrance), but the mosque also functioned as a place for education and coaching of the people, a place for military training and preparation for war, a place to reconcile and resolve disputes, a place to receive envoys or delegates, a place to provide social assistance, and as a centre for enlightenment and defence of religion to build a glorious civilization.

In this paper, we explored the youth demographics in Nigeria and how such could be channelled towards achieving the sustainable development goals. The study has observed that the Nigerian youths are facing serious unemployment which hinders their effective utilization towards achieving the 2030 Agenda. Based on this, the study has indicated that target 8.6 of the sustainable development goals which centres on substantially reducing the proportion of youth not in employment, education or training by 2020; and target 8.b which involves developing and operationalize a global strategy for youth employment and implement the Global Jobs Pact of the International Labour Organization by 2020, has not been met. This therefore raises policy issues towards the achievement of the sustainable development goals. The paper recommended building financial capital for the youth; encouragement of participatory development; promotion of local enterprise forum, functional skills acquisition through the provision of basic core infrastructure, and youth inclusion in governance.

This article analyzes the preconditions for «youth-friendly» services development. The study aims to justify the development prospects and identify ways to improve the efficiency of the Center for Health and Social Assistance to Children and Youth «Youth-Friendly Clinic» in Shostka under healthcare reform. The object of the study is the Center for Health and Social Assistance to Children and Youth «Youth-Friendly Clinic». The study’s subject is the organizational, economic and social relations that arise of the Center for Health and Social Assistance to Children and Youth «Youth-Friendly Clinic» under healthcare reform. The methodological basis of this study is a systematic approach and fundamental premises of the general economic theory. The study involved scientific research methods such as abstract-logical and system-structural analysis to determine the problems leading to the need for «youth-friendly» services; statistical and expert assessments methods to determine the number of visits to the «Youth-Friendly Clinic». The research involved data for 2017-2019. The study determined several global problems that caused the emergence and development of youth-friendly clinics as follows: the risk of morbidity of young people through an active lifestyle; low awareness of young people about the importance of maintaining their own health; lack of specialists competent in socio-psychological problems of today’s youth. Besides, the findings showed that the main prerequisite for youth-friendly clinic development is achieving sustainable development goals, especially goal 3 «Good health and well-being». This study considered preventive work, voluntary counselling and testing for HIV (VCT), medical-diagnostic and social areas of the Center for Health and Social Assistance to Children and Youth «Youth-Friendly Clinic» in Shostka. The authors analyzed the visit dynamic and the share of specialists in-demand among clients of the Center. The most active groups of clients were identified by age and sex. The obtained results allowed identifying the effective management tools of the researched Center, prospects and ways to improve its activity under healthcare reform. The authors indicated further research directions considering the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the youth-friendly clinics and the best world practice in the youth clinics management system.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis article explores the relationship between the sent-down youth movement and economic development in rural China during the Cultural Revolution. It examines ways in which sent-down youth themselves initiated improvements in rural life, and more importantly, how local officials used both their presence to acquire equipment and technical training and their skills and education to promote rural industry. The sent-down youth offices established in the cities and the countryside inadvertently provided connections between remote rural counties and large urban centres that enabled the transfer of a significant quantity of material goods, ranging from electrical wires and broadcast cables to tractors and factory machinery. Ultimately, we show how individual sent-down youths, their families, and both urban and rural officials – none of whom had a role in determining government policies – identified and made use of resources that those policies unintentionally produced.

Full textAbstract:
The Post-school Education and Training (PSET) policy seeks to address the education and training needs ofpost-school youth not in education, employment nor training (NEET). The problem of youth NEET has beenresearched from many perspectives. However, there is a dearth of knowledge about the responses, views and actions ofpost-school youth NEET living in this precarious situation. This paper analyses the resistance, critical agency andinitiatives of youth; organisers; and facilitators at a youth development and organisation centre in a township inGauteng. The study is framed by the notion of ‘critical’ agency (Gramsci: 1971) and Bourdieu’s concept of 'strategies'that mediate structure and agency. These concepts enable a focus on critical agency that emerge withinseverely constraining social conditions. Data were collected through the following sources and methods: from a'youth dialogue' amongst engaged youth; ethnographic interviews with post-school youth themselves; interviews withkey individuals such as organisers, leaders and facilitators of programmes; and observations of literacy classes offeredat the centre. Data analysis revealed resistant counter discourses amongst the youth to school and current PSET;acceptance of education for employment; desire for higher quality education; and clear ideas of alternativepedagogies. In addition to these counter discourses the paper highlights the critical agency of key individuals in theface of debilitating structural constraints. Implications for the post school education and training system are raisedand some recommendations are made.

Full textAbstract:
Unemployment is high among youths living in marginalised communities in South Africa. One of the reasons is that many young people are either un- or low-skilled to gain employment in a digital economy requiring high-skilled individuals. The fourth industrial revolution (4IR) also exacerbates the future of work for these youths if they remain unskilled. Training with digital technologies is becoming the norm (especially with COVID–19) but engaging and motivating youth to learn skills is challenging. Gameful design, when effectively used, can create engagement and motivation. This study investigated what gameful elements can engage and motivate youths in marginalised communities to learn employable skills and how these elements can be incorporated into a system. We conducted a series of co-participatory workshops, including self-reflection tasks with some youths from a marginalised urban community in the Western Cape, South Africa. The study finds twenty-three system-based gameful design elements and three non-system-based elements to engage and motivate youths. The results provide insights for gameful designers, development centres, and policymakers involved with youth skills development.

The present study endeavored to understand the perceptions of Indian older adults (age 60 and above) from urban centres of New Delhi, Kolkata, and Mumbai, about the state of youth development in India through applying a generational perspective. Drawing from our understanding of Bourdieu’s concept of cultural reproduction of values, the study explored older adults’ thoughts about the current state of Indian youth concerning their civic participation and contribution to the development of Indian society. Additionally, it sought to find familial roles that the elderly would like to undertake to support their younger family members. Thematic analysis revealed that the older adults in this study perceive that youths are not completely engaged in positive youth development and need to contribute more towards their civic societies. Additionally, the older adults expressed their interest in occupying the role of secondary socializing agents in the family due to their perceived intergenerational differences with youth.

This section is the centre of the article and it is organized in three axes, we will first show the link between the historical context and the possibility of research on youth, both for their appearance as objects of study and for the development of social sciences in Argentina. Then we will detail this background that constitutes what we call ‘the invention of tradition’, and we will pass on to a characterization of current tendencies in the field of youth studies and politics. The second objective is to present through a case study (participation in secondary schools) some discussions regarding the link between youth and politics. Finally, we will discuss youth and politics as an academic and societal preoccupation in the light of the aforementioned processes.

The purpose of this study is to specifically explore ways to revitalize labor human rights education for out-of-school youths by examining the status of labor human rights education for out-of-school youths and examining the necessity of labor human rights education. To this end, this study used the literature research method to examine the current status of out-of-school youths and the legal basis for out-of-school youth labor human rights education, and based on this examination, it further explored programs as well as teaching and learning practices. The results of the study are as follows. Currently, the Out-of-School Youth Support Center is the core of the support system for out-of-school youths in Korea. However, according to the result of analyzing the status of labor human rights education at the Out-of-School Youth Support Center, labor human rights education at the Out-of-School Youth Support Center is inadequate and needs improvement in the functional aspects of labor human rights education that requires various educational factors in order for the out-of-school youths to understand labor society and establish correct values and attitudes for labor rights. Therefore, as part of the plan to revitalize labor rights education for the out-of-school youths who often have less learning opportunities comparatively, this study presented the development area, details, and core competencies for labor rights education of out-of-school youths, and practical strategies. In addition, it was suggested that the Out-of-School Youth Support Center could strengthen the organic cooperation system with the provincial office of education, the district office of education, individual schools, and other related institutions for a further and continues link between finding out-of-school youths and labor rights education.

Social work services based in call centres represent a controversial and often negatively viewed development in the context of service delivery. Little is known, however, about the professional knowledge, values and skills required in this work environment, or of the strengths and learning opportunities this area of practice has to offer social work in general.This paper discusses the findings of a qualitative research project which involved 14 Intake Social Workers (‘ISWs’) at the Children Youth and Family (‘CYF’) National Contact Centre (‘NCC’), (formerly known as the National Call Centre). The aim was to ascertain how ISWs constructed their child protection social work practices in an environment where they communicated with their clients exclusively by using information and communication technology (‘ICT’) procedures. Participants were also asked to comment on their perceptions of the NCC as a place to work.The findings demonstrate the development of a unique skills set that combines elements of social work and traditional call centre work, where social workers must form constructive relationships with callers who have complex problems and sets of expectations, and with the technology that mediates their practice in this highly regulated, pressured work place.

Full textAbstract:
The youth center in a general education institution play an important role in the development of students’ socio-emotional skills. Socio-emotional learning (SEL) are considered to be an asset necessary for academic and personal success. They include a variety of characteristics, such as communication, empathy, self-regulation, conflict resolution, and many others, which are defined as «21st century skills». A youth center in a school acts as a platform for developing these skills by providing students with opportunities to interact, collaborate, and develop as individuals. The creation of a youth center is based on student participation in the process of its formation, which contributes to the implementation of the key levels of understanding of SEL: knowledge acquisition, critical thinking and embodied understanding. Studies show that the vast majority of students support the initiative to create a youth center, which indicates the need for a safe place for self-realization and socialization. The Youth Center offers a variety of areas for student development, including a coworking space, a lounge area, and a media area. Each of these areas creates a favorable environment for free expression and development of students’ abilities. The youth center creates a safe environment for socialization and development of these skills. The youth center involves the active participation of students in the creation of the center, which contributes to their personal development. The main areas of influence of the youth center that contribute to the comprehensive development of students are: education, leisure, volunteering, social adaptation,cultural life, sports and health, psychological safety, civic position and career development. A great advantage of opening youth centers in educational institutions is the openness of their space, namely, regardless of social status, any student can attend such a center; students themselves choose what will be held in the youth center; all conditions of the center provide for barrier-free access and provide comfortable conditions for everyone. The creation of a youth center will promote social interaction, self-expression, emotional literacy and conflict resolution, which are important components of personal development and adaptation in the modern world.

Involving the talented youth in the processes of innovation development is an important factor in the development of the society and modernization of the Russian economy. The national education system defines working with gifted children and young people as a key priority. The role of universities in youth talents training and management increases inasmuch the purpose of educational institutions is not only training of specialists with the highest professional qualification but creating the so-called intellectual elite of the country as well. The model of talent management system functioning at I.N. Ulianov Chuvash State University is described in the article. The article examines the complex multi-level system presented by interaction between elements «school – higher education provider – production». The basic forms of identifying and following up gifted schoolchildren and students and forms of supporting young lecturers are considered. A number of the University structural subdivisions such as Centre for working with the gifted youth, Center of Supplementary Education, Vocational Guidance Center, Innovation-implementation Center take part in working with talents by implementing a year-round complex of events. One of the key factors in functioning the talent management system is staffing. With a view to maintaining continuity, fostering young teachers’ motivation the University implements in-house target programs. One of the most effective forms of preserving and transferring the best practices of professional adaptation is tutorship. A multilevel approach makes it possible to create conditions for maximum revealing talents in students, professionals and to build the system of continuity within the system of working with young talents.

In recent years pastoral regions of western China have been subjected to significant spatial transformation in the name of economic development and environmental protection. Scholarly accounts of these regions have often focused on the state’s efforts to sedentarise herding households; this article, however, examines the significance of the administrative recategorisation of a pastoral district and the relocation of its centre, in line with the state’s policy of creating towns in rural areas. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Alasha, in the west of Inner Mongolia, I show how this particular transformation involved the combination of elements from two distinct spatial formations which characterised state territorialisation in this part of China in the early socialist period: the pastoral district or commune, and the military-agricultural colony. While much recent literature has highlighted the enduring legacy of pre-socialist spatiality in the face of the modern state’s projects of spatial reconfiguration, this article attends to the ways in which the spatial transformations of the early socialist period continue to reverberate today. I show how, for local ethnic Mongolians, the meanings inscribed upon the landscape during this period, and the infrastructural orientations which were established then, today sit awkwardly with official visions of an urban future.

The present study aimed to assess the physical match performance among senior and youth soccer players from an elite Scottish Premiership club during the 2021/2022 season. Twenty-two first team (25.9 ± 4.5 years, 78.3 ± 8.2 kg, 1.82 ± 0.07 cm) and 16 youth players (16.8 ± 0.9 years, 70.1 ± 6.8 kg, 177 ± 5.8 cm) were examined. A selection of physical match performance variables were measured using a global positioning system. Linear mixed-effect regressions revealed for all examined variables no significant differences between first team and U-18 players and no significant differences between playing level by position interaction. Across both teams, Centre Backs compared to Wing Backs, showed a 295 m (p < 0.01) lower high-intensity distance, and performed on average 36 fewer very-high intensity decelerations (p = 0.03). Comparing to Wide Midfielders, Centre Backs showed lower total (1297 m, p = 0.01), high-intensity (350 m, p = 0.01), and sprint (167 m, p < 0.01) distances. Sprint distance was also lower in Centre Backs vs. Strikers (118 m, p = 0.03), and in Central Midfielders vs. both Strikers (104 m, p = 0.03) and Wide Midfielders (154 m, p = 0.01). The present findings highlight the physical match performance of elite Scottish players and provide useful information within the context of understanding how methods of physical development of youth soccer are implemented in different countries.

There are several limitations of the scientific literature on the linkage between positive youth development (PYD) attributes and adolescent psychological morbidity. First, longitudinal studies in the field are limited. Second, few studies have used validated PYD measures to explore the related issues. Third, few studies have used large samples. Fourth, limited studies have been conducted in mainland China. In this study, we conducted a longitudinal study using two waves of data collected from 2648 junior high school students in mainland China. In each wave, participants responded to a validated PYD scale (Chinese Positive Youth Development Scale: CPYDS) and other measures of well-being, including the 20-item Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). After controlling for the background demographic variables, different measures of CPYDS (cognitive–behavioral competence, prosocial attributes, general positive youth development qualities, positive identity, and overall PYD qualities) were negatively associated with CES-D scores in Wave 1 and Wave 2. Longitudinal analyses also revealed that PYD measures in Wave 1 negatively predicted Wave 2 depression scores and the changes over time. The present findings highlight the protective role of PYD attributes in protecting adolescents from depression.
