Abstract

As I write this editorial we are still not out of the woods of COVID19, but there seems to be some hope of defeating this virus. I know we have all been impacted by the efforts to contain the virus with lockdowns, working from home and home schooling. There are of course ongoing concerns about the impact of these measures on mental health and especially the mental health of young people. I hope the papers in this issue will be helpful for your practice as well as being an interesting read. The first paper which deals with internet addiction by Hatice Odaci, Fatma Irem Değerli and Neslihan Cikrikci looks at predictors of this addiction in secondary and university students. This is timely as many people are worried that young people are increasingly using screens and what the benefits and risks are of them doing so. The next three papers are about bullying at school. This is a seemingly intractable problem which still has no obvious, clear and simple solution. The paper by Yu-Hsien Sung, Martin Valcke and Li-Ming Chen examined how experienced secondary school teachers handled bullying situations when they happened. They found these teachers tended to identify that the incident was bullying and then teach those involved about the incident. The teachers also stressed that they remained calm but kept a serious and fair attitude and tried to create a positive atmosphere in which to implement an immediate intervention. The second paper on bullying is by Kevin Runions, Donna Cross, Rena Vithiatharan, Mark Everard and Graham Hall. An interesting aspect of bullying of children with asthma was examined. It was found that children with asthma were more likely to be victimised but also to be perpetrators of bullying. Those children with asthma who were victims of bullying only, were at more risk of psychosocial adjustment problems. It was emphasised in the paper that these children with asthma who were bullied could require specialised support from school counsellors and psychologists. The third paper by Zeynep Nur Besnili, and Ibrahim Tanrikulu presents the validation of a peer bullying scale for preschool children. That preschool children actually bully others and are not just aggressive is still a contentious issue, however, this measure will go some way to solving this problem and is a welcome addition to bullying measures. The following paper by Inbar Levkovich and Ina Vigdor explores the way high school counsellors cope when students at their school attempt suicide. Not surprisingly they found that counsellors described these events as painful, difficult and confusing and how complex their dealings with young people, their families and the school were. However, despite their feelings of inadequacy in these situations they recognised that their role was crucial in managing and treating these incidents in the school environment. The next paper deals with ethical dilemmas faced by school counsellors by Fatih Camadan, Cem Topsakal, and İnci Sadıkoğlu. Interviewing school counsellors, the authors found that cases of confidentiality posed the most frequent ethical dilemma and most counsellors relied on research to be able to resolve the dilemma.

编辑
在我写这篇社论的时候,我们还没有走出新冠肺炎的困境19,但似乎有战胜这种病毒的希望。我知道我们都受到了通过封锁、在家工作和在家上学来遏制病毒的努力的影响。当然,人们一直担心这些措施对心理健康,特别是年轻人心理健康的影响。我希望这一期的论文对你的实践有帮助,也能成为一本有趣的读物。Hatice Odaci、Fatma Irem Değerli和Neslihan Cikrikci的第一篇关于网络成瘾的论文着眼于中学生和大学生网络成瘾的预测因素。这是及时的,因为许多人担心年轻人越来越多地使用屏幕,以及他们这样做的好处和风险。接下来的三篇论文是关于学校欺凌的。这是一个看似棘手的问题,但仍然没有明显、明确和简单的解决办法。这篇由俞显松、Martin Valcke和Li Ming Chen撰写的论文考察了经验丰富的中学教师在欺凌事件发生时是如何处理的。他们发现,这些教师倾向于认定这起事件是欺凌,然后向相关人员传授这起事件的相关知识。教师们还强调,他们保持冷静,但保持严肃和公平的态度,并努力营造一种积极的氛围,以便立即实施干预。第二篇关于欺凌的论文由Kevin Runions、Donna Cross、Rena Vithiatharan、Mark Everard和Graham Hall撰写。研究了欺凌哮喘儿童的一个有趣方面。研究发现,患有哮喘的儿童更有可能成为受害者,但也有可能成为欺凌的肇事者。那些哮喘儿童只是欺凌的受害者,他们更容易出现心理社会适应问题。论文强调,这些被欺负的哮喘儿童可能需要学校辅导员和心理学家的专业支持。Zeynep Nur Besnili和Ibrahim Tanrikulu的第三篇论文验证了学龄前儿童同伴欺凌量表的有效性。学龄前儿童实际上欺负他人,而不仅仅是攻击性的,这仍然是一个有争议的问题,然而,这项措施将在一定程度上解决这个问题,是欺凌措施的一个受欢迎的补充。Inbar Levkovich和Ina Vigdor的以下论文探讨了高中辅导员在学校学生试图自杀时的应对方式。毫不奇怪,他们发现辅导员将这些事件描述为痛苦、困难和困惑,以及他们与年轻人、家人和学校的交往是多么复杂。然而,尽管他们在这些情况下感到不足,但他们认识到自己在学校环境中管理和处理这些事件方面的作用至关重要。下一篇论文由Fatih Camadan、Cem Topsakal和Il nci Sadıkoğlu撰写,探讨学校辅导员面临的道德困境。在采访学校辅导员时,作者发现,保密案件构成了最常见的道德困境,大多数辅导员依靠研究来解决这一困境。Halis Sakız、Abdullah Mert和Hakan Sarıçam的文章发现,与那些不孤独和被排斥的学生相比,被排斥和孤独的青少年自尊较低,也认为自己的社会能力较差。鼓励学生的求助行为是学校里一个长期存在的问题。然而,Sarah Pearson和Chelsea Hyde发现,心理健康知识可以显著预测青少年的求助意向,而态度则不然。在求助者偏好方面也发现了性别差异。因此,他们得出结论,教授心理健康对于促进学生的求助行为至关重要。Yefei Want的下一篇论文探讨了在学业上拖延的学生及其与考试焦虑的关系。本期的最后一篇论文涉及Lawrence P.W.Wong、Mantak Yuen和Gaowe Chen撰写的职业生涯,他们讨论了学校教师在影响学生职业规划和决策方面的不同作用。
