Research Findings

In studying a group of 483 high-school students from Zadar, the Social and Emotional Loneliness Scale for Adults (SELSA, DiTommaso & Spinner, 1993) was administered to assess the level of loneliness in three domains: friendships, family, and romantic relationships.The main aim of the study was to examine if three scales of the SELSA could be used as reliable measures of these aspects of loneliness during this period of adolescence as well. The results suggest that social and family scales can be considered as reliable measures of adolescents' loneliness in friendships and family, whereas items of romantic scale defined two unrelated dimensions, labeled unsatisfaction with actual status and desire for intimacy. However, in some subgroups, these dimensions were positively or negatively associated, depending on subjects' gender, grade level, and/or actual romantic involvement. The pattern of correlations among the SELSA's scales, obtained in this sample, is in line with the previous research findings, suggesting that the assumed validity of the SELSA in assessing Weiss' concepts of social and emotional loneliness, has no adequate support in empirical data.

Age And Sex

Slang usage in modern age Iran is a popular phenomenon among most male and female teenagers. How pervasive this variation of language use is among various age and sex groups in Iran has been a question of debate given the significance of religion in a theological system of social structure. The work presented in this study aims to investigate the effect of age and sex on variability of slang usage. Sixty Iranian participants were selected, and then were divided into three age groups (i.e. primary school, high school, and senior university students) each group consisting of ten males and ten females. A self-made questionnaire in the form of Discourse Completion Test (DCT) describing nine situations of friendly conversations was given to the participants. They were asked to make their choice on the responses, which ranged from formal to very informal style (common teenage slang expressions), or to write down what they wish to say under each circumstance. The results of the chi–square tests indicated that slang usage among high school students is more frequent as compared with other age groups. Unlike the popular belief suggesting that slang is used by boys rather than girls, the findings suggested that young Iranians both male and female use slang as a badge of identity showing their attachment to the social group they wish to be identified with.

The Social

Two types of social goals associated with students’ academic performance have received attention from researchers. One is the social responsibility goal, and the other is the social relationship goal. While several scales have been validated for measuring social relationship and social responsibility goals in academic settings, few studies have applied these social goal scales to high school students in physical education settings. The purpose of this study was to assess the reliability, validity, and generalizability of the scores produced by the Social Goal Scale-Physical Education (SGS-PE) in high school settings. Participants were 544 students from two high schools in the southern United States. Reliability analyses, principal components factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and multistep invariance analysis across two school samples revealed that the SGS-PE produced reliable and valid scores when used to assess students’ social goal levels in high school physical education settings.

Additional Support

With the amount of speeches delivered on social networks that students browse continuously, it is possible to use this mechanism as an additional support for classes. This research, using this possibility, seeks to present a didactic sequence applied to high school students from a public school, whose objective is to examine the concept of logic, present in the speeches of the two main candidates for the presidency of Brazil, in 2018 The proposal is to demonstrate to students how the concepts of logic can be identified in discourses that permeate the social environment and are part of the reality experienced by students. It is hoped that this research can contribute as a reference to an activity of theory and practice, such a relevant discussion in the school scenario.
