The Efficacy of Equine Assisted Group Counseling with At-Risk Children and AdolescentsTrotter, Kay Sudekum 12 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of equine assisted group counseling as compared to in-school curriculum group guidance/counseling. Research examined externalizing, internalizing, maladaptive, and adaptive behaviors of elementary and middle school students who were considered at-risk of academic or social failure. Two types of behavior instruments, the Behavioral Assessment System for Children (BASC)-Self-Rating, Parent-Rating, and Teacher-Rating Scales; and the Animal Assisted Therapy-Psychosocial Session Form (AAT-PSF), were used in a pretest-posttest comparison group quasi experimental design. Results of the paired sample t-test analysis of the BASC Self-Report indicated that the equine assisted counseling group showed statistically significant improvement in five behavior areas, and the in-school curriculum group guidance/counseling group showed statistically significant improvement in four areas, with only one behavior area the same as the equine assisted counseling group. Results of the paired sample t-test analysis of the BASC Parent-Report indicated that the equine assisted counseling group showed statistically significant improvement in twelve behavior areas, whereas the in-school curriculum group guidance/counseling showed statistically significant improvement in only one behavior area. Results of the paired sample t-test analysis of the BASC Teacher-Report indicated that the equine assisted counseling group showed no statistically significant improvement; however the in-school curriculum group guidance/counseling group showed statistically significant improvement in one area. An ANCOVA comparison of equine assisted counseling group verses in-school curriculum guidance/counseling group using the BASC Self, Parent, and Teacher-Reports indicated that the equine assisted counseling group showed statistically significant improvement in seven behavior areas that the in-school curriculum guidance/counseling group did not. Results of the repeated measures ANOVA of the AAT-PSF (equine assisted counseling group only) showed statistically significant improvement in all 3-scale scores: 1) overall total behaviors; 2) increased positive behaviors; and 3) decreased negative behaviors.

Resilience in adolescents: a psycho-educational perspectiveSteyn, Sharon Teresa 30 October 2006 (has links)
The main aim of this study was to attempt to determine which factors that contribute to resilience are absent in adolescents who are considered to be ”at risk”. The research was undertaken with white adolescent learners between Grades 8 and 12, in a former Model-C secondary school. Several definitions of resilience, a historical view of resilience, the characteristics of a resilient adolescent, several definitions of adolescence, the stages and tasks of adolescence and who the adolescent is in psycho-educational terms, were explored.
In this qualitative study, the Vulnerability Questionnaire and the Resilience Questionnaire were given to twelve educators who were requested to select the participants for the study. A qualitative assessment, using the Child and Youth Resilience Measure, was used to determine why certain adolescents are more resilient than others. Each participant also completed a collage which was analysed. / Educational Studies / M.Ed. (Specialisation in Guidance and Counselling)

Guidelines for the development of youth mentor programmesArnolds, Lionel 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2004. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Close, personal relationships with adults are seen to contribute positively to the
development of young people. Whilst mentoring has been established in other
parts of the world, it is a relatively new concept in South Africa. The purpose of
this study is to establish guidelines for the development of youth mentoring
programmes.
The literature study deals with the human development of youth during
adolescence. Those factors, both within the family as well as in the environment,
that affect the development of young people, are discussed. The phases of the
mentoring process is also described. The Hearts of Men mentoring programme is
used as an example of a youth mentoring programme that is based in the
community.
An exploratory and descriptive study was undertaken in order to describe the
development of youth during adolescence. An empirical study was undertaken
based on the literature review. A sample comprised of 18 young people
participating in the Hearts of Men mentoring programme in the Strand was
involved in the study. With the help of the empirical study the perception of the
young people with regard to the mentor and mentee roles was examined.
The findings of the study reveal that the young people in the Hearts of Men
programme have a positive experience of the mentoring process and have an
understanding of the mentor and mentee roles.
In order to establish youth mentoring programmes, organisations must possess
the knowledge of and skills in the mentoring process and must have an
understanding of the human development of young people as well as of theories
relating to their development. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Persoonlike verhoudings met volwasse persone word beskou as 'n positiewe
bydraende faktor tot die ontwikkeling van jongmense. Terwyl mentorprogramme
redelik gevestig is in ander dele van die wêreld, is dit 'n relatiewe nuwe konsep in
Suid Afrika. Die doel van hierdie studie is om riglyne daar te stel vir die ontwikkeling
van jeug mentorprogramme.
Die literatuurstudie het gehandel oor die menslike ontwikkeling van jongmense
gedurende adolessensie. Faktore binne die gesin, sowel as die omgewing, wat 'n
invloed het op die ontwikkeling van die adolessent is bespreek. Die fases van die
mentorproses is ook beskryf. Die Hearts of Men program is gebruik as 'n voorbeeld
van 'n gemeenskapsgebaseerde jeug mentorprogram.
'n Verkennende-beskrywende studie is onderneem om die ontwikkeling van die
adolessent gedurende adolessensie te beskryf. 'n Empiriese studie gegrond op die
literatuurstudie is gedoen. 'n Steekproef, bestaande uit agtien jong deelnemers aan
die Hearts of Men mentorprogram in die Strand, is by die ondersoek betrek. Met
behulp van die empiriese ondersoek is die persepsies van die jong persone rakende
die rol van die mentor en mentee in die mentorprogram ondersoek.
Die bevindinge van die ondersoek toon dat die deelnemers aan die Hearts of Men
mentorprogram 'n positiewe ervaring van die mentorproses ondervind, en dat hulle
begrip toon ten opsigte van die rol van die mentor en mentee in die mentorprogram.
Ten einde jeug mentorprogramme te implementeer, moet organisasies oor die
kennis en vaardighede beskik rakende die mentorproses. Organisasies moet ook
begrip toon rakende menslike ontwikkeling van jongmense, en kennis hê oor teorieë
wat op hulle ontwikkeling betrekking het.

Substance abuse among male adolescentsMohasoa, Irene Patience 02 1900 (has links)
Adolescent substance abuse is a major problem facing the world today. In order to understand the
reasons for adolescent substance abuse behaviour, various theoretical perspectives were utilised
and strategies to curb substance use were also identified. The study was conducted in the rural
areas of Zeerust, North West province of South Africa. The participants included 12 male
adolescents, whose ages ranged from 12 to 15 years. A qualitative, explorative research design
was employed. Data was gathered using semi-structured interviews, genograms and observations.
Thematic analysis was used to analyse audio-taped data. The study found that substances abused
by the participants include alcohol, nicotine, cannabis and heroin. Their reasons for using these
substances include individual, family and environmental factors. However, peer group pressure
was identified as the primary factor for adolescent substance use. This study emphasises the
painful nature of substance abuse among adolescents, yet at the same time it succeeds in
highlighting the strategies that can be employed to address substance abuse among adolescents.
In addition, this study recommends a concerted effort by all the stakeholders in addressing the
substance abuse problem. / Psychology / M.A. (Psychology)
