Objective: To investigate the psychiatric symptomatology and personality characteristics of Korean senior high school students considered to use the Internet to excess. Method: We administered a questionnaire packet to students that included 4 measures. These measures included a questionnaire on Internet use patterns during the previous month, the Internet Addiction Test (IAT), the Symptom Checklist-90-R (SCL-90-R), and the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF). A total of 328 students, aged 15 to 19 years, participated in the study. Results: Students were divided into 4 Internet user groups according to their IAT total scores: nonusers ( n = 59, 18.0%), minimal users ( n = 155, 47.3%), moderate users ( n = 98, 29.9%), and excessive users ( n = 16, 4.9%). The SCL-90-R showed that the excessive users group, when compared with the other groups in this study, reported the highest levels of symptomatology. The 16PF also revealed that excessive users were easily affected by feeling, emotionally less stable, imaginative, absorbed in thought, self-sufficient, experimenting, and preferred their own decisions. Conclusions: This study suggests that senior high school students who use the Internet to excess report and subsequently exhibit significantly more psychiatric symptoms than students who use the Internet less frequently. In addition, excessive users appear to have a distinctive personality profile when compared with nonusers, minimal, and moderate users.

Objectives: An estimated 1.8 million individuals worldwide became newly infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in 2016, which amounts to 5,000 new infections per day. This includes 160,000 children. The HIV epidemic not only affects the health of individuals but also impacts households, communities, and the development and economic growth of nations [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref1">1</xref>]. The prevention and control of HIV infection and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) are recognized as a national priority in Kuwait. This study assesses the knowledge, awareness, and attitudes about HIV/AIDS among senior high school students in Kuwait. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a convenience sample of 346 students in 8 randomly selected high schools in 3 governorates of Kuwait, using a questionnaire designed to measure the student’s knowledge and attitude towards HIV/AIDS. The survey questionnaire was administered to the students in their classrooms. Results: This study revealed that the students were knowledgeable with regard to the nature and mode of transmission of HIV/AIDS, but they needed a more detailed understanding of the disease to prevent stigmatization and discrimination of an infected person. Conclusion: This study provides a benchmark for further elaborate studies in the community to develop appropriate health education and awareness programs.

Abstract Background: The increase in the number of Internet users has increased Internet dependence worldwide. In adolescents, this dependence may interfere with sleep, which is important for the development of psychophysiological capabilities. However, few large-scale surveys have described the relationship between Internet addiction (IA) and sleep disturbance using standardized questionnaires. We conducted a survey in one prefecture in Japan to determine the relationship between sleep disturbance and IA in adolescents based on the categories of the Young Diagnostic Questionnaire (YDQ).Methods: In 2016, high school students (N=10,405, age range: 15–16 years) in all 54 daytime high schools in the selected prefecture were surveyed using a self-administered questionnaire. Participants with scores > 5.5 points on the Japanese version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were defined as having a sleep disturbance. IA was evaluated using the YDQ: Participants with five to eight YDQ items present were classified as having IA; those with three or four items present were classified as “at risk of IA”; and those with two or less YDQ items were classified as “non-IA”. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed with sleep disturbance as the dependent variable, IA as the explanatory variable, and adjustments for eight other variables.Results: High YDQ scores were associated with a high prevalence of sleep disturbance in boys and girls. These findings persisted after controlling for other factors in the multiple regression model.Conclusions: Among Japanese adolescents, there was a significant independent relationship between IA and sleep disturbance.

Abstrac : The Interest of Twelfth Grade Senior High School Students in Sukasari District Bandung City in the Undergraduate Study Program of PGPAUD FIP UPI.The research is prompted by the phenomenon of the low number of students interested in the Study Program of PGPAUD, more specifically the study program of PGPAUD FIP UPI. The low interest is contradictory to the greatly increasing demands for early childhood education teachers in the field. Therefore, the research aims to find the profile of data on the interest of twelfth grade senior high school students in Sukasari District, Bandung City, in the undergraduate study program of PGPAUD FIP UPI, as examined from school status, gender, and specialization. The method employed was cross sectional survey. The population of this research was as many as 681 twelfth grade senior high school students from all over Sukasari District for the school year of 2014-2015, and with disproportional stratified sampling, 246 students were taken as the sample. The data were collected by means of close-ended questionnaires that were then analyzed using descriptive statistic. The results show that 6.50% of the students in the District were interested in the Study Program of PGPAUD FIP UPI. In terms of school status, the percentages for private and state senior high school students interested in this study program were 7.77% and 5.60%, respectively. As regards gender, the percentages of female and male students interested in this study program were 8.87% and 4.92%, respectively. With regard to specialization in senior high school, the percentages of social sciences and natural sciences students interested in the study program were 46% and 5.17%, respectively. There are possibly three key aspects affecting this phenomenon, among others are students’ perception of guaranteed future career for PGPAUD graduates, the influence of urban life on students, and the lack of contribution from the Study Program of PGPAUD FIP UPI to senior high school students. The research recommends that the government make appropriate policies concerning certainty of employment for early childhood education teachers and the study program of PGPAUD FIP UPI carry out promotional and extension programs.Abstrak : Minat Siswa SMA Kelas XII Kecamatan Sukasari Kota Bandung terhadap Program Studi S1 PGPAUD FIP UPI.
