Download or read book Encyclopedia of Adolescence written by Roger J.R. Levesque and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 3161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Adolescence breaks new ground as an important central resource for the study of adolescence. Comprehensive in breath and textbook in depth, the Encyclopedia of Adolescence – with entries presented in easy-to-access A to Z format – serves as a reference repository of knowledge in the field as well as a frequently updated conduit of new knowledge long before such information trickles down from research to standard textbooks. By making full use of Springer’s print and online flexibility, the Encyclopedia is at the forefront of efforts to advance the field by pushing and creating new boundaries and areas of study that further our understanding of adolescents and their place in society. Substantively, the Encyclopedia draws from four major areas of research relating to adolescence. The first broad area includes research relating to "Self, Identity and Development in Adolescence". This area covers research relating to identity, from early adolescence through emerging adulthood; basic aspects of development (e.g., biological, cognitive, social); and foundational developmental theories. In addition, this area focuses on various types of identity: gender, sexual, civic, moral, political, racial, spiritual, religious, and so forth. The second broad area centers on "Adolescents’ Social and Personal Relationships". This area of research examines the nature and influence of a variety of important relationships, including family, peer, friends, sexual and romantic as well as significant nonparental adults. The third area examines "Adolescents in Social Institutions". This area of research centers on the influence and nature of important institutions that serve as the socializing contexts for adolescents. These major institutions include schools, religious groups, justice systems, medical fields, cultural contexts, media, legal systems, economic structures, and youth organizations. "Adolescent Mental Health" constitutes the last major area of research. This broad area of research focuses on the wide variety of human thoughts, actions, and behaviors relating to mental health, from psychopathology to thriving. Major topic examples include deviance, violence, crime, pathology (DSM), normalcy, risk, victimization, disabilities, flow, and positive youth development.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference in self-esteem scores between adolescents with disabilities who participate in sports and those who do not. SUBJECTS: Twenty-four adolescents with a physical disability between the ages of 12-18 from Massachusetts and Connecticut participated in this study. There were 19 subjects who participated in a sport and 5 that did not. Of the 24 subjects: 15 were female and 9 were male. Exclusion criteria included: a diagnosis of clinical depression, a mental disability, and a visual or hearing disability. METHODS: Each subject signed an informed consent form and for those adolescents under the age of 18 a parent or guardian consent was obtained. Participants then returned a demographic questionnaire that consisted of questions pertaining to athletic participation, years of participation, age and gender. Next, participants completed the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSE), a 10-item questionnaire used to assess the construct of self-esteem. ANALYSIS: An independent samples t-test was used to compare the mean score on the RSE between adolescents with disabilities who participated in sports and those who did not. A second independent samples t-test was used to compare the mean score on the RSE between males and females with a physical disability. An alpha level of .05 was used to test for significance in each analysis. RESULTS: The nineteen subjects who noted sports participation showed 5.4558± 3.69437 mean years of participation and had a mean score of33.32± 3.481 on the RSE. The 5 subjects who noted no sports participation had a mean score of 31.20± 5.357 on the RSE. The analysis done between the two groups rendered no significant effect (t22=1.082, p=.291). Due to the small sample size of 24 subjects a Post Hoc Power Analysis was conducted. The analysis revealed a Power of 0.15. In order to gain a Power of 0.80 it was determined that the sample size needed t

This book was released on 2024-03-22 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An increasing body of research suggests that physical activity, exercise, and sports enhance a wide range of cognitive and affective wellbeing, including attention, executive functions, memory and learning, creativity, stress resilience, and mental health. Engaging in regular physical activity has also been associated with a reduced risk of many neurological and psychiatric disorders, notably dementia, major depressive disorders, and anxiety disorders. However, firstly, it is still unclear what kind of physical activity, exercise, and sports conducted on how long a timescale brings maximal benefits to a specific outcome for a specific population. Secondly, how findings reported so far can be incorporated into daily practice by the general public and in educational, neurological, and psychiatric contexts remain unaddressed. Thirdly, the underlying psychological, physiological, and neurobiological mechanisms through which physical activity, exercise, and sports promote cognitive and affective wellbeing remain to be clarified. Several potential mechanisms have been proposed, including the activation of the prefrontal cortices and the dopamine and serotonin neurotransmission, the release of neurotrophins, the enhancement of neural plasticity and neurogenesis, and the decrease of neuroinflammation and oxidative stress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This updated and expanded new edition continues the theme of the first edition of emphasizing the struggles in which persons with disabilities have engaged, the barriers they have had to overcome, and the barriers they continue to face in their quest to obtain freedom. A major point is that disabilities are a part of life and everyone has limitations, therefore, persons with disabilities should be treated the same as any other human. The disability rights movement and its role in placing the demands of persons with disabilities before American society are discussed. Legislative action that impacted persons with disabilities is traced through the Americans with Disabilities Act. The impact of attitudes, self-concept, and self-esteem are explored, as well as the family's role in assisting persons with disabilities in their search for freedom. Intervention strategies are also discussed including the actions that are needed before persons with disabilities can be truly free. Although significant progress has been made, the laws mentioned in this book as well as other unmentioned laws can do only so much with regard to helping people with disabilities. Given this reality, it is imperative that persons with disabilities make the American public aware of the inequities that still exist. The search for freedom must continue and the search should be inspired and led by persons with disabilities. Consequently, this second edition deals with both the needs of persons with disabilities and the actions they must take to attain their freedoms."--Publisher's website.

Download or read book Educational Achievement and Psychosocial Transition in Visually Impaired Adolescents written by Ranjita Dawn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a fresh approach to studies on adolescents with visual impairment. It threads through the three elements of disability (visual impairment), psychosocial development of adolescents, and their educational achievement. It highlights how these concepts traverse across and cast an irrefutable impact on each other. The author prepares the ground by highlighting the failure of existing theories of disability studies in addressing issues concerning adolescents. She further critiques the psycho-medical approach to disability which undermines or disregards its social construction. The book provides an analysis of numerous issues affecting the psychosocial development of adolescents with visual impairment, which is further validated through narratives in educational settings. It also strongly advocates the need to create awareness about the basic ethics of human relationships and rights, moral consciousness and social and civic responsibilities, which can play a vital role in ensuring healthy psychosocial development of adolescents with visual impairment, and in ensuring inclusion.
