Adolescent fertility is a problem that is urgent in developing countries due to rapid population growth rates. To gain a better understanding of adolescent fertility within developing countries a study was undertaken to examine adolescent sexual behavior among teens within a developing country, Zambia. A self-administered questionnaire was given to secondary school going teenage women in Zambia. The sample population consisted of 503 women between the ages of 12 and 19. The survey was analyzed using both regression and univariate analysis of the data. The findings revealed that a high percenta

The role of high school counselors includes providing equitable access to college and career opportunities for students (College Board, 2011).

High school counselors may have ambiguous roles that complicates their efforts (Engberg & Gilbert, 2014). Role confusion may arise when the high school counselors are asked to provide mental health services rather than professionally focus on college acceptance and completion for students.

Abstract:

The role of the school principal is second only to classroom instruction in terms of its impact on student achievement. Due to the evolving needs of students, schools, and school districts, the training of new principals should not end once they assume their first position. Research shows that while preparation programs designed to accredit new principals are critical, a growing body of literature is calling attention to the importance of professional growth opportunities that will further the development of educational leaders and address the day-to-day challenges of the role.

Abstract:

In my capacity as a television professional and teacher specialising in multi-camera live television production for over 40 years, I was drawn to the conclusion that opaque or inadequately formed understandings of how creativity applies to the field of live television, have impeded the development of pedagogies suitable to the teaching of live television in universities. In the pursuit of this hypothesis, the thesis shows that television degrees were born out of film studies degrees, where intellectual creativity was aligned to single camera production, and the 'creative roles' of producers, d

Thesis (M Social work)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to develop an understanding of the experiences of mothers caring for their school-going children with mental or physical disabilities in low-income communities using the ecological perspective. The rationale for this research was a gap in the existing literature re-garding the experiences of mothers caring for their school-going children with mental or physical disabilities in low-income communities in South Africa, which was identified in the preliminary and main literature review.

Abstract:

Introduction: In Pakistan there is dearth of research on deliberate self-harm (DSH) and its predictors among adolescents. While the lack of research in Pakistan can be partly attributed to the sacrilegious status, criminalization and stigmatization attached to DSH, it is also an attribute of paucity of Urdu versions of the standardized psychological instruments. Previous research in developed countries has indicated that attachment theory can be used as a useful framework to understand the development of austere psychopathologies like DSH, as well as for studying pathways of interaction of int

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to identify dimensions of synergy in the College Going Initiative of Imperial County, California. The instrument through which this intersegmental partnership was examined was the Partnership Self-Assessment Tool. This study found that leadership is the strongest contributor to synergy, and that leadership facilitates the use of other dimensions, such as administration/management activities and the efficiency and sufficiency of resources in a partnership. This study identified how leadership spans organizational boundaries to filter and combine information from ea

Abstract:

Background: The Central Appalachian region of the United States is disproportionately burdened with high prevalence of tobacco use and tobacco-induced diseases. Efforts to address tobacco use in the region have become complicated with uptake of Electronic Nicotine Products (ENPs), including e-cigarettes, among adolescents and young adults. The high prevalence of tobacco use, and the history of tobacco production have created a high-risk environment for the use of tobacco and ENP among adolescents in the region. However, research on how susceptibility to use e-cigarettes among school-going adol
