ABSTRACT Objective The study aims to identify the nutritional habits of second-year high school students in Seferihisar, Turkey, and the factors associated thereof, based on the Ecological Framework. Methods In this cross-sectional study by a self-reported questionnaire, second-year high school students (n=392) attending public schools in Seferihisar had their nutritional habits measured with the Adolescent Food Habits Checklist scale. The food habit score was calculated and associated factors were evaluated in 4 layers based on the Mary Story’s Ecological Framework (individual factors, social, physical and macro-level environments). The data analysis for the association of these layers with the food habits score was executed through multi-level linear regression. Results Students’ participation rate was 87.7% (n=344). Of all the layers (from individual factors to the influence of the social environment and macro-level environment: nutritional literacy, the food consumption of their peers at school, availability of fruits-vegetables at home, buying junk food at the school canteen, presence of posters at school, etc.), the option for advertised food items was statistically explanatory based on the linear regression analysis (p<0.05). Conclusions The model derived from the Ecological Framework explained 45% of the nutritional habits with an equivalent contribution from the four layers. Availability of healthy food items where the students lived and higher levels of nutritional literacy led to healthy nutritional habits. Having healthy food items sold at school canteens at affordable prices, using posters to promote a healthy diet, and introducing nutrition-related courses into the curricula would support students in developing healthy nutritional habits.

Background: Puberty is a time when many changes occur in the body of a young person. It is also the time when nutritional habits are developed or modified. Healthy dietary choices are of particular importance for normal development during adolescence and are also predictive of future health. Aim of the study: The aim of this study was to assess the nutritional habits of junior high school students from the Kłomnice district with a focus on obesity. Material and methods: The study was carried out using 280 randomly selected secondary school students attending schools in Kłomnice, Częstochowa in the Silesian province. The research was carried out using a questionnaire comprising questions about gender, age, weight and height of the body and nutritional habits. Results: The nutritional habits of high school students from the Kłomnice district were evaluated to be low. Girls more frequently than boys had developed improper eating habits. Irregularities in the diet of the surveyed high school children are: incorrect number of meals a day, irregular food consumption, snacking between meals, adding too much sugar to hot beverages, infrequent consumption of milk and dairy products, coarse grains, vegetables, fruits and legumes and a high frequency of meat and sweets consumption. The nutritional habits of junior high school students from Kłomnice were at a sufficient level. Girls more often than the boys showed improper eating habits. Irregularities in the diet of the students in the study were: improper amount of food consumed during the day, irregular food consumption, snacking between meals, adding too much sugar to hot beverages, infrequent consumption of milk and dairy products, coarse grains, fish, vegetables, fruits and legumes and a high frequency of meat and sweets consumption.

Background: To conduct a retrospective study for investigating changes in food preferences of high school students from childhood to the present day.Methods: The study included 1,300 students aged 16–18 years who responded to a questionnaire regarding food items that they disliked at present and in their childhood; they selected a list of 55 foods and responded to 35 questions regarding their food habits. The distribution was categorized into four patterns of food preferences based on whether a particular student had disliked a particular food item during childhood (+) and during high school at present (+). Food preference at present was examined for all other items using logistic regression analysis after adjusting for gender and age. Results: In total, 66.9% of the subjects reported (+) to (+), 12.5% reported (+) to (−), 6.5% reported (−) to (+), and 14.1% reported (−) to (−). Even in the (+) to (+) group, a significant decrease was observed in the number of disliked foods from childhood (5.5 ± 5.4) to the present day (4.2 ± 4.1) (P < 0.001, ANOVA). No dislike for any food item at present was related to no dislike for any food item during childhood [odds ratio (OR), 12.57; 95% confidence interval (CI), 8.3–19.1]] and talking positively about food (OR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.11–1.49) but inversely related to the limited use of smartphone while eating (OR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.75–0.98). Conclusion: Decreasing the dislike for foods at present as well as no dislike for any food item during childhood may be crucial for developing future good food habits in high school students. In addition, to improve current food preferences, students may need to eat together.

Objective: To know if there is a significant difference between the types of maternal vs. paternal parental socialization and if they are predictors of suicidal ideation in students of  Ignacio Carrillo Franco (ICF) Preparatory School, May 2017.  Material and methods: Observational, transversal, prospective study. The studiend population was the high school students ICF. The parental socialization styles of both parents were measured using the ESPA-29 scale and the suicidal ideation (Roberts scale) of the students. Descriptive and inferential statistics were performed using ANOVA and multiple linear regression with the IBM SPSS Statistics 20 program.  Results: There were 144 students, aged 15-17 (m16.31 ± SD 0.68). The maternal parental socialization style (Negligent vs Authoritarian Games-Howell m: 1.84, SD 0.57, Sig .011) shows significant difference vs paternal and maternal axes Acceptance/Implication (t: -2.85, Sig .005), Coercion/ Imposition (t 3.35, Sig .001), maternal dysplication (t 5.913, Sig .000) and paternal (t 3.343, Sig 0.001) are predictors of suicidal ideation.  Discussion: The mother plays the most important role in the suicidal ideation of adolescents; since according to their parental style they are the most predicted.  Key words: Styles of parental socialization, suicidal ideation, adolescents.

Study examined the extent to which there would be differences in oral and written proficiency in a foreign language among groups of low-, average-, and high-anxious high school students. Participants were 60 girls attending a single-sex, college-preparatory high school and completing the second year of a foreign language course. Analysis showed over-all differences on measures of proficiency in the foreign language among the three groups. The results support the hypothesis that anxiety about foreign language learning is likely to represent students' differences in language learning.

Introduction: Healthy and nutritional habits are formed and consolidated during adolescence. So this research has been done in Ardakan-Yazd province on high school students' attitude to fast food use. Methods: In this cross-sectional descriptive study, 200 students have been chosen by stratified sampling method and the data was collected by a questionnaire which approved its reliability and validity. All the descriptive data has been analyzed by SPSS 16 software through Chi-square experiment and ANOVA tests.  Results: The results of the experiment determined that 55% of the students were female, and 93% were single. The students' BMI was as follow: 22% thin (BMI< 18.5) 56% normal (18.5≤ BMI< 25) 14.5% overweight (25≤ BMI< 30) 6.5% fat (obese) (BMI ≥30).The female has a positive attitude to fast foods (P= 0.03). The mean attitude score for eating fast food in 17-18 years old group was more than 15-16 years old students (P= 0.001). The mean attitude score also showed that the single students were more eager to eat fast foods than the married students (P= 0.001) Conclusion: Most of the people who use fast foods are low educated, teenagers, youth and singles. On the other hand, social media like TV and radio and family has a significant effect on correct nutritional habits. So improving family's attitudes and educating students and teachers by social media can help in transferring data to the students and their teachers.
