The study was carried out to establish hygienic estimate of labor employment and its effect of health of adolescents in various regions of Russia. The questionnaire survey of 1 500 individuals (senior high school students and students of professional education colleges) was implemented in four regions of the Russian Federation (Moscow, St. Petersburg, Omsk and Pskovsk regions). The quality of life related to health was estimated using standard questionnaire MOS SF-36. It is established that 41.2% of adolescents worked during time free of lessons. In Moscow, number of working adolescents is reliably lower than in other regions (32.8%). The prevalence of illegal labor activity in all oblasts is demonstrated. The regional features of of structure of labor employment according types of work and causes of labor activity is established. The study confirmed that labor activity in adolescent age is a health risk factor. The analysis of health risks demonstrated that in adolescents working all days of week during academic year are established risks of health complaints: leg pains (OR = 2.1, RR = 1.7, EF = 39.4%) in St. Petersburg, back pains (OR = 1.9, RR = 1.5, EF = 35.2%) in Omsk, heartburn (OR = 2.1, RR = 2.4, EF = 44.5%) and other disorders of digestion (OR = 2.4, RR = 1.9, EF = 48.4%) in Pskov. The increased risks are established in adolescents permanently working during academic year: occurrence of health complaints (OR = 2.6, RR = 1.6, EF = 38.8%) in Pskov, complaints on leg pains (OR = 3.2, RR = 2, EF = 49.5%) in Moscow, heartburn (OR = 4.7, RR = 3.4, EF = 70.5%) in Omsk, other disorders of digestion (OR = 4.3, RR = 2.8, EF = 64.4%) in Pskov. In these groups of working adolescents lower levels of indicator of quality of life related to health (according MOS SF-36) - BP scale (pain intensity) are established.

Abstract Objectives Identifying the factors associated with HRQoL in adolescents is a prerequisite of interventions aimed at improving the overall quality of life and health status among them. Studies have identified many factors associated with HRQoL in different populations; however, very little is known about the role of resilience on HRQoL in adolescent students. Subjects This cross-sectional study was conducted on 1500 high school students (750 boys and 750 girls) in Tehran. The subjects were selected through the cluster and multistage sampling methods. Methods The data collection tool included three questionnaires; a demographic information questionnaire, the Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire (KIDSCREEN-27), and the Children and Youth Resilience Measurement (CYRM-28). Data were analyzed with SPSS 23 software. Regression analysis was performed to determine the association of resilience with HRQoL. Results The mean score of overall health-related quality of life and overall resilience were 57.51 ± 15.03 and 98.35 ± 16.48, respectively. Individual sub-scale (β = 0.402, p < 0.001), caregiver sub-scale (β = 0.279, p < 0.001) and context sub-scale (β = 0.122, p < 0.001) of resilience were, respectively, the positive and significant predictors of HRQoL in students. The resilience sub-scales explained 49% of the total variance of HRQoL, and the individual sub-scale was the strongest predictive factor for HRQoL in students. Conclusion It is recommended to incorporate resilience training programs into the regular school education in order to improve the quality of life and health of students in all high schools and educational centers of the country.

The aim of this study was to examine gender and body-mass index differences in quality of life and exercise motives of adolescents. The sample consisted of 744 first-year high school students from the City of Zagreb. Quality of life was measured with an adapted version of the Kidscreen-27, and exercise motivation with the EMI-2. The results suggest that adolescents experience positive quality of life and their exercise motivation derives from intrinsic and extrinsic motives. Higher levels of male adolescents' quality of life, compared to females', predominantly result from a greater sense of physical well-being, more pleasant emotions and moods, more positive school and family environment, and the ability to plan and spend leisure time. Normal-weight adolescents are more satisfied with their physical activity and health than overweight ones. Male adolescents are more driven by enjoyment, challenge, competition, strength, and social motives (belonging, pressure, and recognition), unlike females, who exercise more because of weight control. Normal-weight adolescents are more motivated for exercise by enjoyment than overweight ones, who are more driven by weight control. The implications of these findings were discussed.

<p class="Abstrak">Idealnya, semakin tinggi jumlah pendaftar di suatu institusi pendidikan, semakin tinggi kualitas dari mahasiswa yang diterima. Akan tetapi, kondisi ideal ini tidak dicapai oleh Fakultas Sains dan Teknologi (FST) UIN Suska Riau disebabkan karena sedikitnya jumlah mahasiswa yang berasal dari sekolah menengah unggul yang mendaftar sebagai mahasiswa di FST UIN Suska Riau. Berdasarkan survey terhadap dosen di FST UIN Suska, masih terdapat kendala yang cukup besar dalam proses transfer ilmu kepada mahasiswa terutama dalam hal daya tangkap dan pemahaman mahasiswa terhadap materi ajar. Oleh karena itu, analisis lebih lanjut mengenai mahasiswa saat ini diperlukan untuk merancang sebuah strategi bagaimana menarik minat siswa yang berasal dari sekolah menengah unggul untuk mendaftar sebagai mahasiswa di FST UIN Suska Riau. Metodologi yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah segmentasi mahasiswa menggunakan algoritma K-Means dan teknik kluster menggunakan algoritma Dunn Index. Pengumpulan data dilakukan sebanyak 614 mahasiswa FST tahun ajaran 2015 sampai 2017. Output dari segmentasi mahasiswa digunakan untuk menentukan target dari Marketing Mix 7P. Penelitian ini menghasilkan 2 kluster mahasiswa dengan nilai <em>Dunn Index</em> 1,99. Kuesioner disebarkan kepada mahasiswa dari dua kluster yang berbeda tersebut dan hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa terdapat tiga variabel Marketing Mix yang berpotensi untuk meningkatkan target pasar yaitu <em>people, product, dan place</em>.</p><p class="Abstrak"> </p><p class="Abstrak"><em><strong>Abstract</strong></em></p><p class="Judul2"><em>Ideally, the higher number of registrant in an educational institution, the higher quality of the accepted students.
