Australian Education

In the Australian education system, there are substantial class inequalities in educational outcomes and transitions. These inequalities persist despite increased choice and individual opportunity for young people. This article explores high school students’ experiences of class in a social context they largely believe to be a meritocracy. Specifically, it asks: how does class shape young people’s thinking and decision-making about their post-school futures? I use Bourdieu’s ‘habitus’ as a frame to understand the role of class in young people’s lives, stressing its generative and heterogeneous aspects. Drawing on qualitative-led mixed methods research, this article argues that young people have internalised the ‘doxa’ of meritocracy, agency and ambition, conceiving of themselves as individual agents in this context. However, risk and security, opportunities and constraints, are not distributed equally in a class-stratified society. Young people from working-class backgrounds more commonly imagine insecure, uncertain futures.

Balanced Diet

Introduction: Dietary trends such as consumption of lactose-free and gluten-free products or the use of alternative slimming diets are gaining increasing popularity, especially among young people. They determine their dietary choices, which are important from the point of view of human health. Unconventional diets are still considered as effective weight loss methods. The use of alternative diets may cause shortages of an essential nutrients, increase the risk of chronic non-communicable diseases and lead to the formation of incorrect eating habits. Balanced diet, in contrast to the alternative diet, takes into account the principles of rational nutrition and nutritional recommendations of the Institute of Food and Nutrition (IŻŻ). The aim: To investigate the influence of popular dietary trends on nutrition of high school adolescences. Material and methods: Subjects were adolescences in the age of 17-21 years attending high schools in Ruda Slaska (262 students, including 157 women and 105 men). Self-constructed questionnaire was applied in the study. Participation in the study was anonymous and voluntary. Results: In more than a half of young women (54,8%) and men (52,4%) the body mass deficiency was revealed (BMI<18 kg/m2). 33,6% of the respondents were on the non-balanced diets at least once in their lives. High school students knew gluten-free and lactose-free products but dietary trends, such as the consumption of gluten-free and lactose-free products, did not affect their diet. The main source of nutritional knowledge among respondents were their friends (78,2%). Conclusions: The results of the conducted research indicate the need to implement educational programs on the principles of proper nutrition. The increasing awareness of theyouth in this regard may contribute to reducing the interest in still popular alternative diets among young people and taking appropriate health behaviors by them.

The purpose of the study presented in the article is an empirical study of typical dynamic peculiarities spheres of young people’ social activity manifestation. The study sample consisted of 240 participants (Saratov region, Russia), including: university students (n = 120), age M = 18.22 (SD = 0.87) and high school students (n = 120), age M = 16.43; SD = 0.53. We used a questionnaire (R. M. Shamionov, I. V. Arendachiuk, E. E. Bocharova et al.) to register various forms of social activity and the degree of their manifestation, and the “Morphological Test of Life Values” technique (V. F. Sopov, L. V. Karpushina) to study various spheres of life. In the sample of students we have recorded a trend towards negative dynamics in the range of typical spheres of social activity manifestation, which, moreover, differs in its substantive multidirectionality. The study has shown that manifestation of various forms of social activity in the typical spheres of life is characterized by multidirectional dynamics of their motives’ actualization, depending on the person’s social and age-related status. The applied aspect of the problem under study can be implemented in the development of youth policy programs.

Important elements which condition the overall perception of the landscape are significant places - places of symbolic, magical, leisure qualities. Selection, type and characteristics of these places will depend on individual preferences of the recipient of the landscape. The studies carried out among young people from Bieszczady indicate significant subjective choice of places, often a given image differs from the usual stereotypes. Regularity as well as aberrances in the perception and evaluation of sites described in this paper was observed.

The majority of young people (63) have a regular average of 7 to 8.9, which may have several factors, but associating the surveys those who suffer some type of disorder or a few hours of sleep claim to have average of bad to regular.
