By developing a software tool that helps students cultivate the habit of smiling, this study aims to enhance students’ interpersonal relationships and ability to interact with others and therefore effectively decrease their Internet addiction. The study participants were students from a vocational high school in Tainan, Taiwan. To begin with, it examined the choices of attachment styles and levels of Internet addiction among high school students enrolled in a practical skills program. The students used the software tool for fourteen consecutive days and completed their smile task, which was followed by a post-test questionnaire. The result shows that for interpersonal interactions, changes in the mean values for three types of attachment styles decrease (namely anxious–preoccupied, dismissive–avoidant, and fearful–avoidant styles). In particular, the dismissive–avoidant style was reported with the most prominent change of −1.267, and it was the only variable with a higher average value. This study also applied Bartholomew and Horowitz’s two-dimensional internal working model and found that the participants had demonstrated positive developments in their own self-internal modes and, in particular, others’ internal modes.

We investigated the Social Network System (SNS) competencies of high school students in Japan. Student groups (from cities or regional areas) and the opinions of their teachers were compared. Twenty-five UNESCO criteria in three competency categories were selected. By two-way analysis of variance and paired-comparisons, we detected a significant difference in the opinions of students and teachers. Although the magnitude of the difference was small, by Dunnett’s multiple comparisons, the city and regional groups also differed from each other. Performance criteria items of risk awareness were valued the highest and most important in all groups; whereas technical skills and socio-cultural skills were reported as less proficient and less important by all groups. Classification of SNS-type was used, and the data of SNS sites with which the students were familiar and the mean values of related performance criteria items were applied to view the situation of students. By this approach, we confirmed that students are savvy in navigating socializing SNSs. Based on our findings, we propose important learning and societal-public activities relevant to SNSs.

Abstract Introduction The present study aimed to examine the association between chronotype, sleep duration, weekend catch-up sleep (CUS) duration, and depression among Korean high school students. Methods A total of 8,565 high school students who were analyzed from 15 nationwide districts in South Korea completed an online self-report questionnaire. Depressive mood was assessed using the Korean version of the Beck Depression Inventory. The following sleep characteristics were assessed: weekday and weekend sleep durations, weekend CUS duration, chronotype, perceived sufficiency of sleep, self-reported snoring and sleep apnea, daytime sleepiness, and sleep environment. Age, sex, body mass index, number of private classes, and proneness to internet addiction were also measured. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to compute odds ratios for the association between depression and sleep characteristics, after controlling for relevant covariates. Results The prevalence of depression (BDI ≥ 16) was 1,794 (20.9%). In the analyses of multivariate logistic regression, the late chronotype (odds ratio [OR], 1.71; 95% CI, 1.47-1.99), female (OR, 2.24; 95% CI, 1.99-2.53), underweight (OR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.02-1.57) and obesity (OR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.13-1.75), weekday sleep duration (OR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.81-0.91), weekend CUS duration ≥ 2 hours (OR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.55-0.85), ESS (OR, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.07-1.10), much (OR, 2.15; 95% CI, 1.63-2.84) and insufficient (OR, 1.71; 95% CI, 1.46-2.01) perceived sleep, snoring (OR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.11-1.46) and witnessed apnea (OR, 2.10; 95% CI, 1.75-2.52), increased internet addiction (OR, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.05-1.06), high number of private education (OR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.60-0.95), and poor sleep environment (OR, 1.86; 95% CI, 1.56-2.21) were associated with depression. Conclusion Eveningness preference, insufficient weekday sleep duration, short weekend CUS duration, and self-reported snoring and sleep apnea were associated with an increased risk for depression.

The article discusses manifestations of procrastination and Internet addiction in high school students within the context of risks of the modern society and education. The purpose of the study is to analyze interrelations between the phenomena of procrastination and Internet addiction in high school students’ personality. The empirical study involved 120 students of the 9th – 11th grades from the cities of Saratov and Balashovaged 15 to 17. We used the questionnaire called “The Degree of Procrastination Intensity” by M.A. Kiselev (system vector psychology SVP), the technique for determining Internet addiction by S.H. Chen and the test for Internet addiction identification by Kimberly Young. We used the author’s questionnaire for qualitative analysis of the interrelation between procrastination and Internet addiction of the subjects. The established relationships between the phenomena of procrastination and Internet addiction (analysis of correlation relationships, typological analysis).New data have been obtained that reveal the nature of the determination of these phenomena in a sample of high school students interacting in modern conditions of education.
