All school counselors in Dallas, Texas, receive training through Project SOAR (Suicide, Options, Awareness, and Relief), a suicide prevention program. This study assessed Dallas school counselors' knowledge of suicidal risk factors and perceived ability to initiate appropriate steps when confronted with a suicidal student. A two-page, 44-item survey was distributed to all Dallas school counselors attending a mandatory meeting in spring 1999. A total of 186 school counselors (75%) responded. Most had been a school counselor for less than 10 years and one-half received initial SOAR training less than four years ago. The majority strongly agreed that they could recognize suicidal warning signs, assess a student's risk for suicide, and offer support to a suicidal student. In addition, most knew the intervention steps to take when a student assessed at high suicidal risk. When compared to school counselors nationwide, these counselors reported increased confidence in identifying students at suicidal risk.","PeriodicalId":225843,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of school health","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127551107","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In all sites males and females used contraceptives at about the same rate. Just 28-53% of currently sexually active students used condoms at last intercourse (Puerto Rico = 28% and Nebraska Oregon and Wisconsin = 53%). 8-46% had had sexual intercourse with at least 4 partners in their lifetime (Puerto Rico had the lowest percentage while the District of Columbia had the highest). In all but 1 site boys were more likely to have had sexual intercourse and to have had at least 4 partners during their lifetime than girls. In 26 of 28 sites girls were more likely to be currently sexually active. Ever use of intravenous (IV) drugs varied from 1 to 4% (Puerto Rico New Jersey and Wisconsin = 1%; New Hampshire = 4%). Only 2 sites met the US Public Health Services objective of reducing the percentage of 9-12th grade students having sexual intercourse to 40%. For all sexually active unmarried teens no site met the objective of contraceptive usage of 90% and ..... condom use of 60% for females and 75% for males. 78% and 47% of school districts require HIV education for grades 6-8 and grades 9-12 respectively.

Representatives of several professional school health education organizations at that conference formed a committee which met in San Francisco February 12–13, 1981, to develop a definition that could be sanctioned by the profession. Their first draft was further refined at a subsequent meeting on August 2–3, 1982. Funding for both meetings was provided by the National Center for Health Education. The second draft has undergone extensive revision from members and officers of the representative school health professional organizations.

First, an appropriate research course for school health must be charted so the most important research issues are addressed in a systematic way. Second, there is a continuing need to develop scientifically sound research methods that can be used in the school setting. Third, there is the immediate need to identify ways of overcoming the usual problems encountered in the conduct of school health research. This paper focuses on the third challenge, via an analysis of the research design and measurement issues that most frequently confront school health researchers. The research design issues addressed include randomization of experimental units to treatments and selection of the appropriate statistical unit of analysis. The measurement issues addressed included use of existing versus newly developed instruments, use of norm-referenced versus criterion-referenced instruments, use of self-report techniques, and appropriate use of affective instruments. Following an analysis of the issues a series of relevant questions are posed.","PeriodicalId":225843,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of school health","volume":"197 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116475666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Justification of dissemination is grounded in two presuppositions: (1) that there is a positive correlation between health education and the practice of health-enhancing behaviors and (2) that health education is an appropriate and fundamental task for schools. Two complex sub-problems are discussed. The first is related to the fact that there are no data to help us determine how many children in this country actually receive health information in schools. In addition, there is insufficient evidence to ascertain either the quality or quantity of health information children receive or where in the curriculum the presentation of that information occurs. The second problem pertains to the myriad of complex factors that impede the implementation of health education in schools. These two problems are re-cast into a series of researchable questions.","PeriodicalId":225843,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of school health","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127753374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since it is unrealistic to expect a school nurse or physician to be immediately available for this assessment, school administrations should develop a set of written policies and procedures to handle these emergencies until such time as a nurse or physician can be contacted or be physically present. Two or more regular members of the school staff, depending on school size, should be designated as the responsible persons to handle the assessment, and one member should be available at all times to give whatever first aid is needed. These persons should be trained in a standard Red Cross course, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or have training as an emergency medical technician. This training should be updated as often as necessary to keep them competent in this area.\u0000 An emergency medical kit should be available in each school and checked regularly by the responsible staff persons who are trained in this area.\u0000 A detailed account of medical emergencies in school, including a list of equipment necessary for an emergency medical kit and how to classify medical emergencies and their treatment, is contained in chapter 18 of the school health manual of the American Academy of Pediatrics.1\u0000 The emergencies related to participation in athletics should be handled by a member of the athletic staff.

Additionally, several parochial schools and other schools in the county or nearby towns have expressed interest in such a program. A rapid, effective method, taking no more than 30 seconds per child, has been used to detect spinal curvature. The program is beneficial for those identified with scoliosis, because early detection, followed by proper treatment, can prevent major surgery. The need for careful school nurse follow-up must be emphasized. A standing x-ray and evaluation by a qualified physician are imperative. If scoliosis is diagnosed, the school nurse can be a very effective contact in assisting the students by discussing exercise or brace care and by providing encouragement and general supportive help.","PeriodicalId":225843,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of school health","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1977-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121836518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
