The Relationship

Objetivos: El presente estudio tiene como objetivo ver la relación existente entre el sexo, el absentismo escolar y la repetición de curso junto al consumo de tabaco en adolescentes de 3º y 4º de la ESO. Método: Los participantes de este estudio fueron un total de 688 adolescentes. Dichos participantes fueron extraídos de la población total (N= 7.832) de adolescentes de 3º y 4º de la ESO de Vitoria (Álava). Para recoger dichos datos se utilizó el cuestionario de la Encuesta Estatal sobre uso de drogas en Enseñanza Secundaria (ESTUDES). Resultados: Los resultados del estudio muestran una prevalencia de consumo de tabaco mayor por parte del sexo femenino en comparación con el masculino. Así mismo, aquellos sujetos que realizan un mayor consumo son quienes más faltan a clase o quienes obtienen un mayor fracaso escolar repitiendo uno o varios cursos. Conclusiones: Las consecuencias negativas experimentadas por el consumo de tabaco reflejan el alto riesgo de fracaso o absentismo escolar. Consecuencias que se deberían tener en cuenta en los próximos programas preventivos con el objetivo de la reducción del daño. AbstractObjectives: This study aims to see the relationship between sex, school absenteeism and grade repetition by the consumption of snuff in adolescents 3 º and 4 º ESO. Method: Participants in this study were a total of 688 adolescents. These participants were drawn from the total population (N = 7832) of teenagers from 3rd and 4th of ESO of Vitoria (Alava). To collect the data we used the National Survey on Drug Use in Secondary Education (ESTUDES). Results: The results of the study show a prevalence of snuff increased by females compared with males. Also, those subjects who made ​​more consumption are the ones who miss class or who obtain a higher school failure repeating one or more courses. Conclusions: The negative consequences experienced by the consumption of snuff reflect the high risk of failure or truancy. Consequences should consider preventive upcoming programs in order to harm reduction.

AbstractDespite the fact that many research studies (Canon & Lipscomb, 2011; Jimerson, 2001a, 2001b, 2004; Martin, 2011) have shown that grade repetition offers few benefits to students, it continues to be used as an early intervention practice to address students’ low levels of readiness for school or early school failure. The study contributes to the evidence-based research on grade repetition in Australian schools by drawing on, and analysing, the most recent data on grade repetition from Queensland’s state education department, the Department of Education and Training. Descriptive statistics and relative risk ratio, used to analyse the data, found that boys aged 5 years are overrepresented in grade repetition in the first year of schooling, ‘Prep’, in Queensland state schools. Possible reasons for the disproportionate overrepresentation of boys aged 5 years repeated in Prep are discussed, together with recommendations for future policy and practice.

Despite the Indian government’s continuing efforts to encourage children to attend school, levels of educational wellbeing among some groups of children during their elementary schooling remain low. High school dropout and grade repetition rates are among the negative and deleterious outcomes of poor educational wellbeing in children that are rarely discussed as policy issues. Using the panel dataset of the India Human Development Survey (IHDS) conducted in 2005 and 2012, this study explores the effects of educational wellbeing on children’s later educational outcomes, as measured by their school dropout and grade repetition rates. Variation in the educational outcomes of children across states was also examined. The results show that the children whose educational wellbeing index was below average during their elementary schooling were more likely to drop out of school or repeat a grade in early adolescence. For policymakers, this study highlights that the experiences of children during their elementary schooling merit more attention.
