Abstract Objective: This study was performed to determine the knowledge level of students in China’s WASH Plus Program about sanitation and hygiene practices to provide a scientific basis for well-targeted health education.Methods: The researchers randomly selected one fourth-grade class from each of the 12 schools in each of the five WASH Plus Program provinces (municipalities or autonomous regions). The students in the selected fourth-grade classes were then asked to complete a self-designed questionnaire. Chi-square testing and Bonferroni correction were used for paired and multiple comparisons of the enumeration data, respectively. Results: The 2330 respondents (mean age, 9.9 ± 0.3 years) included 1151 male students (49.40%), 1489 students of minority (non-Han) ethnicity (63.91%), and 433 boarding students (18.58%). Overall, 81.09% of the students were found to have gained sanitation-related knowledge, and 79.64% had formed hygiene routines. Specifically, only 41.76% of students knew that “diarrhea can be transmitted through contaminated water,” and 68.88% of students were aware that “diarrhea can be prevented by not drinking untreated water.” In addition, only 67.94%, 62.83%, and 62.62% of students “wash hands with running water and soap/hand sanitizer at school,” “never drink untreated water at school,” and “never drink untreated water at home,” respectively. Regionally, 88.54%, 87.13%, 79.13%, 77.23%, and 72.81% of students in Chongqing, Yunnan, Guangxi, Guizhou, and Xinjiang, respectively, had strong knowledge of sanitation, and 92.11%, 80.70%, 74.04%, 79.43%, and 69.86% of them practiced hygiene. In terms of gender, 80.53% of male students and 81.64% of female students had acquired sanitation-related knowledge, whereas 77.45% of male students and of 81.78% female students had adopted hygiene practices. The total awareness rates of sanitation-related knowledge for Han students and minority students were 83.10% and 79.96%, respectively. Approximately 85.53% of Han students and 76.32% of minority students had formed good hygiene routines. Some 81.32% of boarding students and 81.04% of non-boarding students had strong knowledge of sanitation, and 78.65% and 79.87%, respectively, had formed good hygiene habits. Conclusions: Some of the students surveyed had insufficient hygiene knowledge, and a small number had poor hygiene habits. To provide students with well-targeted health education, improve their hygiene awareness, and change their bad habits, full consideration should be given to factors such as region, gender, ethnicity, boarding status, and the influence of the process via which students acquire hygiene knowledge and form effective hygiene routines.

Abstract The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of oral hygiene practices and halitosis among undergraduate students from King Saud University, College of Dentistry. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed among all 481 students; 263 male and 218 female students. A questionnaire was developed to assess the self-reported perception of oral breath, awareness of bad breath, timing of bad breath, treatment received for bad breath, oral hygiene practices, caries and bleeding gums, dryness of the mouth, smoking and tea drinking habits, and tongue coating. The response rate was 77%. Forty four percent of male and 32% of female students reported the self-perception of breath odor. Self-treatment was sought by 12% male and 22% female. Six percent of males and 4% of females experienced bad breath interference at their work. Seventy-eight percent of male and 62% of female students experienced bad breath after waking up. Brushing was prevalent among 81% of male and 99% of female students. Both miswak (chewing sticks) and tooth brushing were used by 53% male and 83% female students. Fifty seven percent of male students and 44% of female students reported caries. Bleeding gingiva was experienced by 26% of males and 14% of females. Dry mouth was common among 14% of males and 17% of females, while smoking was prevalent among 13% of males and 2% of females. Tea drinking was common among 44% of males and 37% of females, while tongue coating was equally common among both males and females (21% and 20%), respectively. The results indicate female students had better oral hygiene practices, significantly less self-reported oral bad breath, and smoked less compared to male students. There was no difference in tongue coating among male and female students. Further research is needed to examine oral malodor clinically and objectively by the standard procedures available. Students should be motivated to be a health symbol and keeping their mouths free from oral malodor. Citation Almas K, Al-Hawish A, Al-Khamis W.

Abstract Background Health literacy (HL) is defined as the capacity to acquire, interpret and understand basic health information and services in a way to improve person's health. Population health literacy level was found to be inadequate or limited with 64,4% Ä°n Turkey Health Literacy Research (2015). The aim of this study is to determine the HL levels of students attending health vocational high schools and the related factors. Methods The population of this cross-sectional study was students who attended to the vocational school in the center of Malatya. The sample size was determined as 337 by using the power analysis based on Turkish data. Official permission was obtained for the research. In May and June 2019, Turkish Health Literacy Questionnaire-32 (THLQ) developed by the Ministry of Health was applied to the accepting students in this study.The score obtained from the scale is considered to be insufficient of 25 and below, limited to > 25-33 points and a score of < 33 and above is sufficient or excellent. In the analysis of the data, Kolmogorov Smirnov, Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests were used and p < 0.05 was chosen as the level of error. Results 68% of the students is female and 32% is male. The average age of the research group is 16.6 ± 1.1 (min. 14, max. 20). 18.3% of male students stated that 6.6% of female students smoke. The THLQ score of the study group was found to be 33.7 ± 8.9. 53.7% of male students and 39.5% of female students had insufficient or limited HL different from each other significantly (p < 0,025). 56.4% of students in 9th and 10th grades and 37.4% of 11th and 12th grade students were found to have insufficient or limited HL significantly (p < 0,0001). There was no difference between HLL scores and other socio-demographic characteristics(p > 0,05). Conclusions The frequency of adequate or excellent HL in the study group is higher among females (60.5%) than males (46.3%). It can be said that female students value health more. Key messages The limited level of health literacy of health vocational high school students indicates the insufficiency of health education in schools. Health topic campaigns should be organized frequently for awareness on health education during school education.

Identity Exploration

This study examined how social opportunity structure influences identity exploration and commitment of Albanian high school students. A total of 258 students completed a questionnaire that gauged their identity exploration and commitment in three domains: education, occupation, and family. ANOVA results indicated that, overall, students scored highest in exploration in the domain of education and in commitment in the domain of family. Students' exploration and commitment were linked to gender. Albanian female students scored higher than male students in exploration and commitment regarding education and family. Perceived work opportunities in Albania or abroad also significantly moderated participants' exploration in the domain of education and were associated with commitment in education and occupation. As one of the first studies to explore Albanian youth's identity development in relation to social opportunity structure, findings are discussed in light of furthering the field of Albanian adolescent and youth development.
