Courage under fire: stories of adolescents who survive the destruction of divorceHenning, Deirdre Helena 31 October 2005 (has links)
The prevalence of divorce within society is reflected in the rising divorce rate worldwide. Consequently, divorce has become more accepted, although adolescents from divorced families are considered at risk for maladjustment. The aim of this study is to give a voice to adolescents who have experienced their parents' divorce and to highlight their resilience despite the challenges they faced.
The epistemological framework is social constructionism. In-depth interviews with two adolescents who have experienced the divorce of their parents were undertaken. The method of analysis used was `Thematic content analysis'.
The participants' stories were recounted through the lens of the researcher in the form of themes. Recurring themes in these stories were elucidated and linked with the literature.
This study allowed rich and detailed descriptions about adolescents' experiences to emerge, which the researcher hopes will broaden the therapeutic understanding of the complexities of divorce for the adolescents who survive it. / Psychology / MA (Clinical Psychology)

Evaluation of a sex education programme for Indian adolescentsNaran, Shiela 02 1900 (has links)
This study evaluates a sex education programme administered in an Indian high
school. To this end, a literature search, empirical study and qualitative data were used
to measure the effectiveness of the Education for Living programme.
Adolescents are blamed for having pennissive attitudes, or for indulging in amoral
sexual behaviour without considering the consequences. The fact is, sexual
development of young people is affected in a fundamental sense by what is taking
place around them. Many of the taboos, which operated in society years ago, have
disappeared.
This study looks into the history of the South African Indian community. In
particular, this study focuses on the community's values, attitudes and traditional
practices toward sexuality, sex and marriage. It further highlights how the processes
of westemisation and modernisation have eroded many of these aspects of traditional
Indian culture. The study concludes by examining the emergence of new-found
patterns of behaviour and attitudes.
It is not the intention of this study to provide any conclusive documentation on the
subject of the Indian adolescent. However the major findings of this study have been
fommlated as recommendations and implications for further research. Since sexuality
is an ever-changing, life-long experience, there is a need for continuous acquisition of
accurate sexual knowledge. Carefully designed programmes may serve to allay fears,
dispel myths, diminish confusion, enhance communication within families and
promote health and wellbeing across generations. / Social Work / M.A. (SS) (Mental Health)

Adolescent dating relationships : sexual coercion and high risk sexual practicesSwart, Lu-Anne 30 November 2005 (has links)
This study investigated coercive and high risk sexual practices in South African adolescent dating relationships. Quantitative and qualitative information was collected from secondary school learners in a community near Johannesburg. Of 928 learners surveyed, 23.5% of females and 53.7% of males ever had sex. Of these, 57.8% of females and 44.2% of males reported sexual victimisation, and 46.8% of females and 50% of males reported perpetrating sexual coercion in a relationship. Significantly more males engaged in risky sex than females. Among females, sexual coercion was significantly linked to risky sexual behaviour. Among males, alcohol and perpetration of sexual coercion were significantly associated with risky sexual behaviour. Focus group data reveal how dominant constructions of gender normalise male coercion and contribute to risky sexual practices. Recommendations for sexual health initiatives include introducing alternative discourses of female sexual desire and male sexual responsibility as a means for building healthier adolescent dating relationships. / Psychology / M.A. (Psychology)

The influence of social networking on the social interaction patterns among adolescents in the northern suburbs of Cape TownSymington, Serahni 11 1900 (has links)
The aim of the qualitative study was to explore the phenomenon of social networking and the possible influences it could have on adolescents‟ way of interacting socially. The study was conducted from a gestalt perspective and also incorporated aspects of developmental theory. Learners (12-18 years old) from a high school in the northern suburbs of Cape Town participated in semi-structured interviews voluntarily. Parents and teachers also participated in the study by forming part of focus groups. The study indicated that although social networking is a beneficial social tool for adolescents, it could become an obstacle during social interaction which is not mediated through an electronic or mobile network. From the study it can be concluded that social networking is a positive social tool, which could become dangerous for adolescents‟ social interaction abilities when used inappropriately. / Social Work / M.
