Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuando todo se ha experimentado y no se ha encontrado un sentido hacia el cual orientar la propia vida se concluye que la sociedad es "un asco" y que puede haber un camino de evasión en el alcohol o en la droga. Es lo que piensan muchos de nuestros jóvenes que viven en la desesperanza, y que terminan inmersos en un mundo de autodestrucción y de muerte. Ciriaco Izquierdo, quien se ha desempeñado como capellán de un centro penitenciario para jóvenes y gran conocedor de la pedagogía juvenil, ofrece este libro como un instrumento imprescindible para cuantos, de una u otra forma, se interesan por el drama de la juventud presa de la drogadicción. El tono directo del autor, su pasión por rescatar a la juventud de una realidad cruda y sin sentido, su lenguaje cercano y directo, y la claridad meridiana de sus planteamientos hacen de estas páginas un valioso aporte a la juventud del siglo XXI.

This book was released on 2024-07-14 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an in-depth examination of the historical, political, and socio-cultural dimensions of psychoactive substance use, particularly within the Brazilian context. It provides a detailed analysis of the evolution of policies and approaches towards prohibitionism and criminalization, emphasizing their impact on marginalized and socially stigmatized groups. Through a comparative lens, it explores alternative regulatory models, exemplified by Uruguay's Cannabis legalization trajectory. Additionally, the work critically examines the complex interplay between gender, media representations, and illicit drug trafficking, shedding light on the intricate dynamics involved. Central to its discourse are preventive strategies and harm reduction interventions, which underscore the pivotal role of education, neuroscience, and community-based approaches in addressing substance use among adolescents. Drawing from diverse disciplinary perspectives, including neuroscience, psychology, and public health, the book offers a comprehensive understanding of substance use and dependence. By synthesizing research findings and evidence-based practices, it serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, healthcare professionals, educators, and researchers engaged in addiction studies, mental health, and public policy formulation.

Download or read book Adolescent Psychology Around the World written by Jeffrey Jensen Arnett and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2012-04-05 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book paints a portrait of adolescent psychology in 4 major regions: Africa/the Middle East, Asia, the Americas, and Europe. Featuring 24 revised and updated chapters from the International Encyclopedia of Adolescence (2007), readers are introduced to the way the majority of the world’s adolescents actually live. Most contributors are indigenous to the country they review. As a whole the book paints an engaging panorama of adolescent life around the world, broadening students’ cultural perspective. All chapters follow the same template to make it easier to compare topics across countries: Background (including demographics, ethnic diversity, and political system), Period of Adolescence, Beliefs, Gender, the Self, Family Relationships, Friends and Peers/Youth Culture, Love and Sexuality, Health Risk Behavior, Education, Work, Media, Politics and Military, and Unique Issues. Each chapter contains a map and photos and a list of references and suggested readings. The introductory chapter explains why the countries were selected and introduces the book’s common themes. The section on Africa and the Middle East introduces students to teen life in Cameroon, one of the few places left where adolescents go through formal puberty rituals. In addition, readers learn about adolescent life in Ethiopia, Israel, Morocco, Nigeria, and Sudan. Next we travel to Asia -- China, India, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Here readers see how economic growth in India and China is creating opportunities for young people. In The Americas, readers are introduced to life in Argentina, Canada, Chile, Mexico, Peru, and the United States. The book concludes with adolescent life in Europe including the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Russia, Sweden, and the UK. Intended for courses in adolescent psychology, lifespan development, and/or cultural (cross-cultural) psychology taught in departments of psychology, human development and family studies, sociology, and education, this book will also appeal to researchers and clinicians who study or work with adolescents.
Download or read book El problema del embarazo en la adolescencia Contribuciones a un debate written by Claudio Stern and published by El Colegio de Mexico AC. This book was released on 2012 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El embarazo en la adolescencia es considerado como un riesgo para la salud materna e infantil, así como un factor que contribuye al desmesurado crecimiento de la población, a la deserción escolar, y a la perpetuación de la pobreza, al coartar las posibilidades de desarrollo familiar. Sus causas se atribuyen principalmente a la sexualidad precoz y a la falta de información y de acceso a los métodos anticonceptivos. Esta publicación pone en cuestión los supuestos antes mencionados, destacando dos factores realmente subyacentes a esta problemática: la pobreza y la desigualdad, que dejan pocas oportunidades alternativas de desarrollo a una gran cantidad de nuestros jóvenes, y la falta de una verdadera educación para el ejercicio de la sexualidad que les permita enfrentarse con responsabilidad a este aspecto tan central para su vida.

Download or read book Students at Risk of School Failure written by José Jesús Gázquez and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main objective of this Research Topic is to determine the conditions that place students at risk of school failure, identifying student and context variables. In spite of the fact that there is currently little doubt about how one learns and how to teach, in some countries of the “developed world,” there is still there is a high rate of school failure. Although the term “school failure” is a very complex construct, insofar as its causes, consequences, and development, from the field of educational psychology, the construct “student engagement” has recently gained special interest in an attempt to deal with the serious problem of school failure. School engagement builds on the anatomy of the students’ involvement in school and describes their feelings, behaviors, and thoughts about their school experiences. So, engagement is an important component of students’ school experience, with a close relationship to achievement and school failure. Children who self-set academic goals, attend school regularly and on time, behave well in class, complete their homework, and study at home are likely to interact adequately with the school social and physical environments and perform well in school. In contrast, children who miss school are more likely to display disruptive behaviors in class, miss homework frequently, exhibit violent behaviors on the playground, fail subjects, be retained and, if the behaviors persist, quit school. Moreover, engagement should also be considered as an important school outcome, eliciting more or less supportive reactions from educators. For example, children who display school-engaged behaviors are likely to receive motivational and instructional support from their teachers. The opposite may also be true. But what makes student engage more or less? The relevant literature indicates that personal variables (e.g., sensory, motor, neurodevelopmental, cognitive, motivational, emotional, behavior problems, learning difficulties, addictions), social and/or cultural variables (e.g., negative family conditions, child abuse, cultural deprivation, ethnic conditions, immigration), or school variables (e.g., coexistence at school, bullying, cyberbullying) may concurrently hinder engagement, preventing the student from acquiring the learnings in the same conditions as the rest of the classmates.

Download or read book Dominicans and Human Rights written by Mike Deeb and published by ATF Press. This book was released on 2017-04-03 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To mark the long history of Dominican involvement in defence of human rights, in the year celebrating the 800th anniversary of the confirmation of the Order of Preachers, two hundred Dominican brothers, sisters and laity met in Salamanca, Spain, to discuss the contribution of the Dominican Order, in the past, present and future, in the promotion and defence of human rights. It was in that city in the sixteenth century that, prompted by his Dominican brothers, such as Bartolome de las Casas, who were defending the indigenous people of Latin America against the Spanish conquistadores, Francisco de Vitoria planted the seed of today's international human rights movement. This volume presents in original languages the eleven papers given in Salamanca as well as the statement adopted by the delegates at the end of the meeting. They combine historical views, theoretical insights and testimonies from life experience. This offers a rich contribution, not only towards strengthening the role of the Dominican Family, and even the universal church, in defending human rights, but also towards a deeper understanding of 'evangelisation' and 'mission'.
