knowledge about the psychological counseling services of the METU Health and Guidance Center were investigated. The sample consisted of 417 (223 female, 194 male) undergraduate students of Middle East Technical University. The data was gathered using the scale of Attitudes Toward Seeking Psychological Help-Shortened (ASPH-S), the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) and a demographic information form. It was found that nearly half of the participants (47%) had knowledge about the psychological counseling services of the METU Health and Guidance Center. Friends were the most frequently stated sources of help (59%) in times of need for personal problems. Females had more positive attitudes toward seeking psychological help than males. Students of the Faculty of the Arts and Sciences, and students of the Faculty of the Education were found to have more favorable attitudes than of the Faculty of Engineering students. Finally, hierarchical regression analysis showed that perceived social support, prior help-seeking experience, and gender significantly predicted attitudes toward seeking psychological help. However, psychological distress was not associated with help-seeking attitudes.

Full textStudent counselling services, typically located within a holistic developmental approach, aim to render comprehensive student services to service users in relation to their psychological, social,educational and spiritual well-being. However, a number of cognitive and affective barriers reportedly reduce the likelihood of young people at universities seeking professional psychological help for personal-emotional problems. Accordingly, the aim of this study, which is located within the Theory of Reasoned Action, was to explore students’ attitudes towards utilising student counselling services, as well as their interpretations of the influence of age, gender and education on their attitudes and self-rated knowledge regarding seeking psychological help. The study thereby attempts to provide an understanding of the factors that influence help-seeking behaviours in university students. The research sample consisted of twenty nine students from the Cape Peninsula University of Technology. The data was collected through focus group discussions, which were conducted using an open-ended and participantcentred approach to the discussion. The qualitative approach of the study was informed by the theory of social phenomenology. Data gathered from the focus group discussions was thematically analysed. The results suggest that attitudes have a potentially important influence on intentions to seek out psychological counselling. Findings show that students feel shame and guilt when they are struggling psychologically and as a result avoid seeking psychological intervention for fear of being negatively stigmatised. The study revealed that education around mental health disorders and the management thereof was crucial in order for them to be demystified and de-stigmatised, and to facilitate openness in the sharing of these problems, and society’s understanding and acceptance of people experiencing psychological disorders. Results also indicate that there is a shift taking place in these attitudes, and suggest ways in which this change can be further facilitated, such as the utilisation of peer helpers who could play a key role in facilitating and reinforcing help seeking behaviour. The outcomes of the study may further contribute to informing universities’ goal to provide accessible, quality and effective development and support services to its students.

Full textThe purpose of this study is to explore the attitudes and behaviors of male university students in relation to preconception health. Preconception health is a set of interventions that detect and change biomedical, behavioral, and social risks to a man and woman's health and future pregnancies. One essential component in preconception health is to improve the knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of men and women related to proper health management before conception.
This study follows a univariate descriptive research design using a convenience sampling of 64 university students. This study demonstrated 5 key findings: (a) attitudes towards preconception health is necessary when planning a pregnancy, using birth control is fairly easy and safe; (b) partners and friends have an influence on confidence in using preconception counseling, however, only the partner had an influence on attitude towards pregnancy prevention; (c) a participant's belief in using birth control every time he has sex is higher when his partner takes birth control more seriously; (d) there were no significant difference between attitudes and behaviors among racial groups; and (e) the older the participants, the more negative attitudes they had towards preconception health.

Full textTiivistelmä Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on kuvata ja verrata kenialaisten ja suomalaisten korkeakouluopiskelijoiden asenteita (tietoja, tunteita ja käyttäytymistä) HIV/AIDSia (Immuunikatovirus/ Hankittu immuunipuutos-oireyhtymä) kohtaan ja löytää seksuaalista riskikäyttäytymistä selittäviä tekijöitä. Terveydenhuollon ja terveysalan hallinnon ja koulutuksen asiantuntijoille tutkimustulokset antavat mahdollisuuden tutustua ja syventää HIV/AIDSia koskevaa tietouttaan ja tietoisuuttaan. Tuloksia voidaan hyödyntää ennaltaehkäisevän terveydenhuollon suunnittelussa ja koulutuksessa edistämään nuorten ja nuorten aikuisten terveellistä seksikäyttäytymistä. Tutkimuksen lähtökohta on ennaltaehkäisevä toiminta ja erityisesti seksuaaliterveyden edistäminen. Tutkimus on vertaileva tutkimus. Aineisto kerättiin strukturoituja ja avoimia kysymyksiä sisältävällä kyselylomakkeella. Tutkimukseen vastasi yhteensä 525 ensimmäisen lukuvuoden korkeakouluopiskelijaa, 411 suomalaista ja 114 kenialaista opiskelijaa. Vastausprosentti oli 87,5 %. Tulokset osoittivat sekä kenialaisilla että suomalaisilla korkeakouluopiskelijoilla olevan hyvät tiedot HIV/AIDSista. Tärkeimpiä opiskelijoiden nimeämiä tietolähteitä olivat TV, kampanjat, sanomalehdet ja informaatiopaketit. Perheen ja terveydenhuoltohenkilöstön rooli tiedon lähteenä oli vähäinen molemmissa maissa. Negatiivisimmat asenteet kohdistuivat homoseksuaalisuutta ja laskimon sisäisiä huumeiden käyttäjiä kohtaan. Kenialaisten opiskelijoiden ennakkoasenteet HIV/AIDSia kohtaan olivat muita opiskelijoita voimakkaammat ja negatiivisemmat. Tulokset osoittivat, että tiedon laadulla ei ollut merkitystä opiskelijoiden ennakkoasenteisiin. Tulokset osoittivat myös, että ensimmäisen vuoden korkeakouluopiskelijoilla ei ole paljon seksisuhteita. Opiskelijoiden HIV/AIDS-tiedoilla ei ollut yhteyttä seksipartnereiden määrään tai seksuaaliseen aktiivisuuteen. Oikealla tai väärällä HIV/AIDS-tiedolla ei ollut vaikutusta ehkäisyn käyttöön. Lähes sama määrä opiskelijoita, jotka kertoivat käyttävänsä ehkäisyä aina tai lähes aina, määritteli HIVin oikein ja väärin. Tilanne oli samanlainen koskien AIDSia. Oikealla tai väärällä HIV/AIDSia koskevalla tiedolla ei ollut myöskään vaikutusta ennakkoasenteiden voimakkuuteen. Tutkimustulosten perusteella HIV/AIDSin ennaltaehkäisyssä ei pelkkä HIV/AIDS tietotason kohottaminen riitä, vaan on syytä käyttää uusia ja monipuolisia lähestymistapoja

Full textassociation with height and weight, family meal patterns, perceived social support, family values and socio-demographic variables were assessed. 299 first year university students from the Department of Basic English at Middle East Technical University participated in the study. Five assessment devices- Demographic data form, the Eating Attitude Test (EAT&ndash
40), Family Eating Attitude and Behavior Subscales, the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and the Traditional Family Values Questionnaire were administered. ANOVAs were conducted to assess differences on eating attitudes between participants in terms of gender, with whom they lived, perceived family type, socio economic status, body mass index and weight satisfaction. Stepwise multiple regressions were conducted to appraise to what extent perceived social support, family meal patterns, traditional family values and demographic variables predicted eating attitudes of first year students. The participants who perceived their family as traditional reported more pathological eating attitudes in dieting, preoccupation with food, social pressure on weight factor. Regression analyses for female participants revealed that dieting, parents occupation, body mass index (current / desired) perceived social support- family, relationships with family and kin, and perceived family income were associated with pathological eating attitudes. Regression analyses for males revealed that dieting, father occupation, desired body mass index and relationships with family and kin were associated with pathological eating attitudes. These findings were discussed with reference to relevant literature. Future research topics were suggested and therapeutic implications of the study were discussed.

Full textSexuellt överförbara sjukdomar är ett stort problem hos ungdomar i Thailand och eftersom oskyddat sex är en växande trend bör detta uppmärksammas. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka thailändska studenters kunskap om och attityder till sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar. Studien önskade även undersöka huruvida det fanns någon skillnad mellan könen. En deskriptiv tvärsnittsstudie gjordes på ett privat universitet i Bangkok, Thailand. Health Belief Model användes som teoretiskt ramverk. Ett frågeformulär besvarades frivilligt av 150 manliga och kvinnliga studenter. Resultatet visade att studenterna hade bristande kunskaper om sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar. Deras attityder visade att studenterna hade många felaktiga uppfattningar i frågan. Studien visade även att de thailändska studenterna vill lära sig mer om sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar och önskar att få denna information ifrån skolan. Studien visade inga stora skillnader mellan könen. Denna studie visar att ytterligare kunskaper om sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar hos thailändska ungdomar behövs. Ytterligare forskning inom området är önskvärt. Detta för att få ett bredare perspektiv om thailändska studenters kunskaper om sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar, för att bidra till att förebygga ytterligare smittspridning.

Full textThe main aim of this study was to investigate the attitudes of the University of Zululand students towards campus psychological services made available to them. The sample for the study was made up of a total of ten (10) participants; consisted of four (4) male and six (6) female participants. The results showed that female students of the University of Zululand were more likely, than their male counterparts, to seek professional help from the campus psychological services. It was also found that most students in their first and second years at the University of Zululand were less likely, than their final year and postgraduate counterparts, to proactively seek out psychological services. It was equally observed that although all participants admitted to have had psychological and emotional problems but not all of them sought psychological help. It was further observed that the students’ lack of awareness about the availability of campus psychological services was congruent with their perception that there was no need for psychological services at the University of Zululand. Although some students may be aware of the availability of the psychological services and some have utilized them, they do not often chat about the psychological services. This may be attributed to the fact that they share common beliefs and values; that it is better to communicate with those within their social circles instead of talking to a psychologist. The findings suggested that those who utilized and thus advised others about psychological services, started by communicating with their friends before seeking psychological services. It also became evident that seeking professional help may not be a common primary step among the University of Zululand students.

Full textIn this inquiry, I examine the cross cultural and educational experiences of ten Arab undergraduate students in two English-language universities in Montreal. Participants were from Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco and have been in Canada for three to seven years.
Classic qualitative methodological tools of in-depth interviews, participant observation and document analysis were employed to record, analyze and interpret the experiences of these students. In order to give voice to these students' insights and experiences, a narrative approach is used in presenting and interpreting the data.
Seven themes identified as educational issues emerged from the analysis: Student-Teacher Relationship; Teaching Methodology; Democratic dialogue in the classroom; Teaching and learning foreign languages; Examinations; Research and Library Facilities; and Problems encountered in interactive classroom. Two themes, identified as cultural issues, emerged: Canadians' Perceptions of Arabs and Muslims from the perspectives of the participants; Islamic dress (hijab) and Sex-segregated relationships.
The analysis revealed differences in culture, language, and social and educational systems between these students' countries of origin and Canada as the major sources of these students' positive and negative experiences. The study concludes that Canadian educators can assist these students by becoming aware of their home culture, different learning styles, frustrations in adjusting to school life and in overcoming cultural shock; and by helping them adjust to Canadian educational system and learn about the Canadian culture.

Full textThis quasi-experimental, exploratory study adds important empirical research to the relatively new field of individual-oriented relationship education. It describes the extent to which specific relationship beliefs and attitudes are held, and evaluates the impact of an undergraduate, semester-long Intimate and Family Relationships course on these beliefs. Utilizing data collected over two semesters at the University of Montana, this study compared 356 student responses at the beginning and end of the semester on three separate scales designed to quantify select measures of specific constraint beliefs and attitudes: Attitudes About Romance and Mate Selection (AARMS), the Parental Authority Questionnaire (PAQ), and the Illinois Rape Myth Acceptance Scale-Short Form (IRMA-SF). Additionally, this study examined the mediating effects of several student background factors: parental divorce, gender, and parenting style on student responses to the educational experience. The researcher found significant results in the following areas: (a) gender differences with regards to the Love is Enough Cohabitation constraint beliefs, and rape myth acceptance; (b) differences on the Love is Enough constraint belief and rape myth acceptance between Adult Children of Divorce and non-Adult Children of Divorce; (c) differences between students who are in a relationship and those who are not, with regards to the One and Only constraint belief, and rape myth acceptance. The results are discussed in the context of exploring and understanding possible variables that may or may not impact relationship health, and may or may not be amendable to individually oriented relationship education. Limitations of the study, implications of the findings, and recommendations for future research are discussed.
