AbstractIn this paper, we use a powerful empirical resource to address what the popular politics of disadvantage might entail in contemporary Britain. We take advantage of the unusually rich qualitative data from the British National Child Development Study, a cohort of Britons born in 1 week in 1958, to focus specifically on the accounts of those who are particularly disadvantaged. By concentrating on these a small number of qualitative accounts, which have been rigorously selected from the wider nationally representative sample on the basis of their relatively small amounts of economic and cultural capital, we will explore in detail the accounts and identities of these disadvantaged Britons with a view to explicating their political frameworks, their social identities and more broadly their orientations towards mobilisation.

Статья посвящена краткосрочным и отдаленным последствиям, которые может оказывать опыт участия в школьном буллинге на различные аспекты благополучия вырастающих школьников в дальнейшем. Приводятся данные междисциплинарных лонгитюдных исследований (в первую очередь, British National Child Development Study, The Great Smoky Mountain Study, Finnish 1981 Birth Cohort Study и др.), метаанализов, а также «поперечных срезов», в которых анализируются последствия ситуаций школьного буллинга. Показано, что буллинг в школе вносит вклад в повышение рисков самоповреждающего и суицидального поведения, психосоматических проблем, употребления психоактивных веществ, криминализации и др., причем многое касается не только тех, кто оказывался в роли жертвы буллинга, но и тех, кто играл роль агрессивной жертвы или агрессора в буллинг-ситуациях. Вовлеченность в ситуацию буллинга негативно отражается в перспективе на физическом и психическом здоровье, реализуемой образовательной траектории и вовлеченности в учебу, дружеских и супружеских отношениях, успешности трудоустройства, финансовом благополучии выросших школьников. Спектр негативных последствий буллинга чрезвычайно широк и должен учитываться в проектировании антибуллинговых программ. В то же время налицо недостаток исследований последствий буллинга для детей, которые присутствовали в ситуациях буллинга в роли свидетелей: некоторые данные указывают на то, что такой опыт тоже может иметь негативные последствия для социализации, однако эти представления нуждаются в дальнейшем изучении. Наконец, рассматриваются основные направления и выигрыши от внедрения системы профилактики и прекращения буллинга в образовательных учреждениях.

ObjectivesWe investigated how youth cognitive and sociodemographic factors are associated with the aetiology of overweight and obesity. We examined both onset (who is at early risk for overweight and obesity) and development (who gains weight and when).DesignProspective cohort study.SettingWe used data from the US National Longitudinal Study of Youth 1979 (NLSY) and the UK National Child Development Study (NCDS); most of both studies completed a cognitive function test in youth.Participants12 686 and 18 558 members of the NLSY and NCDS, respectively, with data on validated measures of youth cognitive function, youth socioeconomic disadvantage (eg, parental occupational class and time spent in school) and educational attainment. Height, weight and income data were available from across adulthood, from individuals’ 20s into their 50s.Primary and secondary outcome measuresBody mass index (BMI) for four time points in adulthood. We modelled gain in BMI using latent growth curve models to capture linear and quadratic components of change in BMI over time.ResultsAcross cohorts, higher cognitive function was associated with lower overall BMI. In the UK, 1 SD higher score in cognitive function was associated with lower BMI (β=−0.20, 95% CI −0.33 to −0.06 kg/m²). In America, this was true only for women (β=−0.53, 95% CI −0.90 to −0.15 kg/m²), for whom higher cognitive function was associated with lower BMI. In British participants only, we found limited evidence for negative and positive associations, respectively, between education (β=−0.15, 95% CI −0.26 to −0.04 kg/m²) and socioeconomic disadvantage (β=0.33, 95% CI 0.23 to 0.43 kg/m²) and higher BMI. Overall, no cognitive or socioeconomic factors in youth were associated with longitudinal changes in BMI.ConclusionsWhile sociodemographic and particularly cognitive factors can explain some patterns in individuals’ overall weight levels, differences in who gains weight in adulthood could not be explained by any of these factors.
