PURPOSE: To examine the relationship between exposure to media violence and bullying among school students in Jordan.METHOD: A cross-sectional, correlational design and a self-reported questionnaire were used to answer research questions. A multistage, stratified random sampling was utilized to recruit a sample of 550 students from eight governmental educational directorates in a large governorate in Jordan. A self-reported questionnaire included demographic data, Media Violence Exposure scale, and School Bullying scale was distributed.RESULTS: Prevalence of school bullying was 47%. There was a positive correlation between media violence exposure and school bullying (r=.549); significantly more boys reported exposure to media violence, perpetrating of school bullying in general, and perpetrating of physical bullying in particular than girls (p=.00). While significantly more girls reported perpetrating of relational bullying than boys (p=.00). Media violence viewing time explained 42% of variance in school bullying scores.CONCLUSION: The findings call urgent need for intervention programs tailored by specialized health professionals to combat the consequences of this growing phenomenon.

AbstractThis study investigates civic and citizenship education in a unique post-Communist context–in the bilingual education system of Estonia. Estonia continues to have a bilingual school system where there are Estonian and Russian language schools in parallel. While Estonian language school students are ranked very high in international comparisons, there is a significant difference between the achievement of Estonian and Russian language school students. We claim that this minority achievement gap in the performance of civic and citizenship knowledge is in addition to family background characteristics explained by behavioral and attitudinal factors that are moderated by the school language. Behavioral and attitudinal independent variables that we consider relevant in our analysis are classroom climate, trust in various media channels, and students’ beliefs in the influence of religion. We rely on hierarchical modeling to capture the embedded data and aim to explain how the different layers (school- and student level) interact and impact civic knowledge. We show that an open classroom is beneficial to students and part of the gap can be explained by Russian school students’ lower involvement in such practices. The strength of the belief in the influence of religion, on the contrary, is hurting students, despite that the negative effect is smaller for minority students there is a higher aggregate negative effect of it and therefore it also contributes to the minority achievement gap. Media trust indicators explain the gap marginally while the high trust of social media hurts students’ civic knowledge scores–still more Russian school students trust social media more than Estonian school students.

В статье анализируется построение социолингвистического портрета, выступающего в качестве основания, позволяющего уточнить статус детей мигрантов – потенциальных учеников российской школы, которых относят к особому типу учащихся. Представлены результаты изучения вопроса на основе: а) анализа отечественной и зарубежной научно-методической литературы по данной проблематике; б) мониторинга статистических данных об итогах тестирования трудящихся мигрантов, т.е. взрослых – потенциальных родителей (данные собраны МЦТ ФПКП РКИ РУДН за три года); в) масштабирования выявленной картины применительно к детям мигрантов. Сделаны выводы, дополняю-щие социолингвистический портрет детей мигрантов (с учетом типичности Центра тестирования для России, а также экстраполяции выводов о взрослой аудитории на детскую). The article focuses on building a sociolinguistic portrait as for clarifying the status of migrant children – the potential students of Russian school, who are classified as special kind of students in terms of school linguodidactics. Research goal is to identify and test another way of determining sociolinguistic status of migrant children. The presented study on the issue results are based: a) on the analysis of domestic and foreign scientific and methodical literature on this issue; b) on monitoring statistics on the results of testing migrant workers, adults – potential parents (data collected by the ICT FPKP RCT PFUR for three years); c) on scaling the identified picture as applied to the children of migrants. Thus, conclusions made complement the sociolinguistic portrait of migrant children (taking into account the typicality of the Testing Center for Russia, as well as extrapolating conclusions about an adult audience to child).

This study assessed a model of mediating influences of anger and contact with delinquent friends in the relationship between exposure to media violence and bullying at school. Data came from 560 Korean junior high school students who were living with their parents. Analysis indicated that, as hypothesized, exposure to media-portrayed violence was directly associated with bullying at school. Anger and contact with delinquent friends mediated this relationship. In addition, two alternative models were estimated, neither supported by the data, further sustaining the validity of the hypothesized model. Implications and directions for research are discussed.

Emergence of a possibility of Internet access at school bears new opportunities and risks too. The tendency to growth of number of the pupils Internet use for non-class-related purposes in the classroom (Cyberloafing) causes concern. Studying of this new phenomenon at the Russian school is complicated due to the lack of reliable and valid techniques. Therefore, adaptation of a scale of a cyberloafing of Y. Akbulut, etc. became an objective of this research. We translated into Russian of 29 items of a technique which were estimated by school students by means of 5-point Laykert scales. Results of application of a scale showed that its items form 5 factors. These are online shopping, accessing online content, activity on social networks, sharing information, socialization. The items of a factor of playing online games did not receive confirmation of validity and internal consistency. They need to be reconsidered. The received factors have sufficient reliability (the Cronbach’s alpha (α) values of all the factors range from 0.77 to 0.881). Work makes a contribution to studying of a cyberloafing at school.
