The aim of this research is to investigate success purpose tendencies of high school students related to the high school type variable. The data was obtained through a developed questionaire for 796 students attending different high schools in Amasya and 2x2 Achievement Goals Questionnaires. For the analyses of the data t-test, one-way variance analysis and (LSD) test to determine the differerence among the groups in the variance analysis and ki-square test were used. Furthermore, descriptive statistical scores that the students got from the scale   were presented.  When the averages investigated, it is seen that learning approach sub-scale average scores are the highest and performance avoidance average scores are the lowest. It is found out that female students have higher average scores related to learning approach and learning avoidance sub-scale whereas the male students have higher average scores in performance approach and performance avoidance sub-scale. There has seen no difference in the class level success purpose tendency average scores of the students related to the class levels. When the scores of the students related to the high school type investigated, there has seen no difference in the learning avoidance sub-scale average scores regarding to the type of school. However, there is a statistically difference in the average scores of the other sub-scale. There is a meaningful relationship between the success perception of the students and success purpose tendency sub-scale in which the students got the highest scores. The adoption in the  the percentage of learning approach tendency of the students who accept themselves partially successful  is  higher than the percentage of learning approach tendency of the students who see themselves partially unsuccessful.The adoption in the  the percentage of learning avoidance and performance avoidance tendency of the students who accept themselves partially unsuccessful is higher than the percentage of the performance approach tendency of the students who see themselves unsuccessful.ÖzetLise tipi öğrencilerinin yönelimlerinin amacı bu araştırmanın başarı hedeflerine ulaşmaktır. İlde farklı okullarda okuyan 796 öğrenciden Veri Amasya anketi oluşturulmuş ve Oryantasyon Ölçeği ile 2x2 Başarı Hedefleri toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde ANOVA (LSD) testi ve ki-kare testi kullanılarak farklı grupların tespiti için t testi, tek yönlü varyans analizi ve en az anlamlı fark kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca, öğrencilerden elde edilen ölçek puanlarının betimsel istatistikleri sunulmuştur. En yüksek öğrenim yaklaşımı alt puan ortalamaları incelenirken, ortalama performans kaçınma alt ölçek puanları en düşük olarak bulunmuştur.Kızların öğrenme yaklaşımı ve kaçınma alt ölçeği öğrenme, performans yaklaşımı ve performans kaçınma alt ölçekleri erkeklerin puanlarının daha yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Not ortalaması, başarı notu ortalamalarına göre başarı puan ortalamalarına göre farklılık göstermektedir. Lise öğrencileri, kaçınma alt ölçeği puan ortalamalarının lise türüne göre değiştiği öğrenme türlerine göre puanları incelediğinde; Diğer alt ölçek puanlarında ise istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin başarılarının objektif algılanması ile en yüksek puanı aldıkları yönelim oryantasyon alt ölçeği arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu bulunmuştur.Kendi kendine kısmen başarılı olan ve yaklaşma hedeflerini öğrenen öğrencilerin yüzdesinin başarılı bir şekilde benimsenmesi, kısmen görenlerin başarısız ve başarısız olmasından daha fazladır.

We aimed to determine how gender stereotypes about mathematics affect high school students' performance in this subject through examining the multiple mediating roles of competence belief, type of achievement goal, and effort. Chinese high school students (N = 267) completed measures to assess their gender stereotypes, competence belief, achievement goals, effort, and performance in mathematics. The results of a serial multivariable mediation analysis partly supported the idea that competence belief, achievement goals, and effort act as mediators in the relationship between gender stereotypes and mathematics performance. Specifically, gender stereotypes about mathematics had a negative direct and indirect effect on Chinese female students' mathematics performance: the girls with a stronger gender stereotype were serially associated with less competence belief, lower performance-approach goals, and less effort, all of which, in turn, were associated with poorer performance in mathematics. However, gender stereotypes about mathematics did not predict the level of Chinese male students' performance at mathematics. The theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

This research has been investigating one of the most contemporary approaches of achievement motivation - Achievement Goal Theory, which uses the construct of achievement goals. The construct of achievement goals involves three types of achievement goals: mastery goals, performance approach goals and performance avoidance goals. The main goal of the research was to examine correlation between perfectionism and its aspects with particular types of achievement goals. Also, the goal was to investigate the difference concerning gender regarding the achievement goals. The sample consisted of 200 senior year high school participants. The following instruments were used: Multi-dimensional scale of perfectionism (MSP) and Test of achievement goals (TCP). The research results indicate that there is significant positive correlation between: perfectionism with performance approach goals and performance avoidance goals, concern over mistakes and parental expectations with performance approach goals and performance avoidance goals, personal standards and organization with mastery goals and performance approach goals, parental criticism and doubts about action with performance avoidance goals. Significant negative correlation was found between parental criticism and mastery goals. The results concerning the second goal indicates the female subjects have higher average scores in mastery goals.

 This paper reflects upon taking up stories with high school students that are full of graphic images of war, genocide and ethnic cleansing. Young people today are bombarded with images of human suffering via the media; when teachers take up traumatic stories, they add to an already overwhelming tide. Narrative and critical analysis are woven together to explore students’ responses to such stories in Canadian schools in which productivity and performance are often used as indicators of student success. Instead, opportunities and possibilities to teach pedagogies of peace and possibility are imagined.

Research Population

It was aimed in this study to reveal and compare strategies of students of three types of high schools to cope with stress through leisure time. The research population consisted of high school students in Konya province, Turkey. The sample consisted of 280 male and 224 female vocational high school, Anatolian  high school and sports high school students. In the study, the Demographic Personal Information Form was used to collect personal information. The “Strategies to Cope with Stress through Leisure Time Scale” (SCSLTS) was used to identify the leisure time strategies. This scale was developed by Iwasaki and Mannell (2000). It was translated into Turkish, and its validity and reliability studies were conducted by Çevik, Özcan and Munusturlar (2018). No difference was found in the strategies of the students to cope with stress through leisure time according to the grade level, income, and maternal and paternal educational level factors. Statistical variations were observed based on the gender and sporting factors (p<.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the mood enhancement dimension depending on the school type factor. However, it was found that the mean scores of the vocational high school students in terms of the dimensions of leisure time friendship and temporary coping ability were higher than those of the students of the other schools, and these differences were also statistically significant (p<.05). The vocational high school students had higher mean scores in the leisure time strategies sub-dimension than the students of other schools. Accordingly, it can be said that the leisure time strategy scores may differ according to the school type and that the students receiving vocational education were more optimistic in determining leisure time strategies than the students of Anatolian high school and sports high school.

Objectives: In this study, we sought to determine the prevalence of problematic Internet use (PIU) among high school students and identify demographic and socioeconomic factors related to PIU. Methods: Using a cross-sectional design, we conducted this study between November 2017 and January 2018 of 1412 students attending high schools in the Silivri District of Istanbul in Turkey. We administered a questionnaire inquiring about sociodemographic information, Internet use, and Young's Internet Addiction Test to participating students. Results: Among participants, 18.5% (male = 17.2%; females = 19.8%) were found to show PIU. PIU rates were higher among those with a high household income and lower among those who studied in science high schools, performed physical activities at least 2 days a week, and read at least one book a month. PIU rates were also higher among those who had their own bedrooms, phones, smartphones, Internet connections at home, and social networking accounts. Conclusion: The prevalence of PIU among the participants was 18.5%. Female sex, high household income, low physical activity, grade level, school type, reading fewer than one book per month, and Internet use experience were risk factors for PIU. PIU is considered a significant public health concern across the world, including in Turkey.
