Peer group norms of Jewish and Arab street-corner youth groups in Israel were studied using a peer norm indicator that measures two clusters of norms: three positive (motivation, respect for authority, helping others) and three negative (aggression, manipulation, criminality; Grissom, 1977). The norms of these groups were compared with those of two control groups (one Jewish and the other Arab) consisting of junior and senior high school students. The results indicated higher negative norms among the Arab street-corner youngsters than among their Jewish counterparts. The findings may provide an explanation for the occurrence of high levels of crime among Arab youth. An alternative explanation is discussed as well, taking into consideration possible discrimination against Arab youth by the criminal justice system in Israel.

Humility is a virtue, and it is important that this character strength is cultivated in school. This study aimed to examine the humility of students and what students think about humility. A total of 499 students were included. An online survey was used which employed a humility questioner with the Elliot theory construct (this included the following aspects: openness, accurate self-assessment, self-forgetfulness and focus on others). Data were analyzed descriptively, examining the percentage of each item. The results showed that the majority of students tended to want to seek information and could accept suggestions from others. There were 291 students who claimed to always think about others, not only think about themselves; 207 answered that they sometimes do; and only one student answered that they never do. 400 students were able to understand their own weaknesses and strengths, while 98 were not able to assess themselves. Students also tended to respond, understand, and evaluate themselves when receiving criticism and suggestions. Students viewed humility as not being arrogant, being humble, being able to respect other students and teachers, and helping others. It is recommended that further research investigates effective counseling models to increase student humility, and examines other connected virtues. Keywords: humility, character strengths, students
