Universal prevention within the school setting can be an effective method to prevent risky behaviour in adolescents. The aim of the study is to analyse the prevention of substance use programs in terms of their curriculum content, implemented approach and mediation mechanism. The curricula of 17 studies that satisfied established criteria were sorted into 3 categories: knowledge, skills, and variables related to self-concept. The programs implemented information is giving approach, a social influence approach and skills enhancement approach. The knowledge, attitudes and beliefs related to substance abuse, and resistance self-efficacy, were identified as significant mediators of program effectiveness. The future direction of prevention development assumes implementing effective strategies of prevention, dissemination of programs which effectiveness and psychological mechanism has been confirmed by previous research.

The aim of the study was to explore the differences in personality factors such as conscientiousness, resilience as a structural style and general and social self-efficacy between primary schoolboys and girls, divided according to the frequency of physical activity. One -way ANOVA followed by Scheffe post hoc tests was used and confirmed statistically significant differences in frequency of physical activity between girls and boys, with boys showing higher frequency. Furthermore, differences were found in personality factor conscientiousness, resilience as a structural style and general self-efficacy in the explored groups divided according to their physical activity and gender.

The aim of the presented study was to establish the share of personality variables and social support from school headteachers in explaining variance of social well-being of teachers. We utilized the concept of social well-being as stated by Keyes (1998). The questionnaire IASR-B5 (Trapnell & Wiggins, 1990) was used to detect personality traits and The Brief Resilience Scale (Smith et al., 2008) to detect the level of resilience. Providing of social support was measured by the SAS–C scale (Trobst, 2000) based on circumplex model of interpersonal behaviour, describing eight types of supportive behaviour. The research sample consisted of 256 primary school teachers. The results were processed by multivariate linear regression analysis. Regression models confirmed a significant share of supportive behaviour of school headteachers in explaining variance of social well-being variables.

Aim: Examine the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on the well-being of teachers (TW) and teacher students (TSW). Method: Nominal Group Technique (NGT) applied in a group of teachers (TG) (n = 23, 100% women, mean age 31.4) and teacher students (TSG) (n = 18, 83.3% women, mean age 21.6). Results: 27 consequences on TW and 21 consequences on TSW found. The highest consensus of 65.2% in the severity of negative consequences on TW was found in the subjective dimension (fear for loved ones) and 56.2% in the severity of positive consequences on TW in the social dimension (spending time with family). The highest consensus of 83.3% in the severity of negative consequences on TSW was found in the social dimension (social isolation). Conclusion: Results of the study contribute to creating interventions to support TW and TSW based on research data.

The body dissatisfaction is important to examine as it is an essential evaluative part of the self-system and can have an impact on psychological and physical health. It is a complex phenomenon and seems to include more factors. The scale of body dissatisfaction for adolescents (EEICA) is a multidimensional verbal method measuring body dissatisfaction. However, its factor structure has been only identified in a Spanish adolescent sample. The main aim of this study is to identify factors of the EEICA for university students from Slovakia, Hungary and Lithuania. 2357 first year university students completed the EEICA online as part of the SLiCE study. Principal axis factoring with Varimax rotation was performed for each country separately. Inter-correlations between factors via the Pearson correlation coefficient were tested as well. The study revealed a three-factor structure of the EEICA in each country (Self-acceptance and acceptance by others based on appearance, Weight control together with efforts to improve one ́s appearance and Low weight dissatisfaction) after excluding 9 items. In addition, the results revealed a significant association between body evaluation and behaviour connected to body appearance. This factor structure helps to distinguish between (1) cognitive and emotional body evaluation and (2) behavioural aspects connected to body appearance. This structure differs from the previous factor structure in Spanish adolescents and it has revealed a new relevant factor named Low weight dissatisfaction, which has so far been rarely explored. Future research may focus on this factor as well as on the complex validation of the EEICA in different age categories.

The relationship between parental smoking and adolescent smoking behaviour has been well documented in previous studies. Less is known, however, about possible moderators of such relationship. The present study focuses on the relationship between parental smoking and adolescent smoking experience in early adolescence. This period has been so far neglected in research. Further, we study parental education level as possible moderator of this relationship. Questionnaire data were collected among 1098 early adolescents (mean age 11.5 years; 54% girls). Logistic regression analyses revealed following results: (1) maternal and paternal smoking is associated with early adolescents smoking experience; (2) moderating effect of parental education was found in sense that having smoking mother with higher education increased the probability of smoking, while having smoking father with lower education increased the probability of smoking. Results are further discussed.

The aim of this study was to explore the efficacy of brief universal drug use prevention program among university students. The changes (pre-and post-program) in scores of sense of coherence (SOC-13; Antonovsky, 1993), resilience (Notario-Pacheco et al., 2011), and alcohol use (AUDIT, Babor, Higgins-Biddle, Suanders, Monteiro, 2001) were explored (34 program participants, 75 students in control group). A statistically significant increase in comprehensibility and resilience, as well as a significant decrease of alcohol use from baseline to follow up measures were found following participation in the program among students in the experimental group. Findings of this study supported flexibility, a potential for changes in cognitive component of SOC, resilience, and alcohol use among university students who participated in short universal drug use prevention program.

Previous research findings have shown positive relationships between: (a) descriptive normative beliefs (DNB) and different types of risk behaviour (RB) and (b) the overestimation of the prevalence of peers’ RB and one’s RB. The aim of intervention programmes which provide an individualized feedback regarding DNB is to reduce RB by correcting students’ perception of the prevalence of peers’ RB. Objective: to present the preliminary statistical analysis of the data from online software application, which provide individualized feedback with the aim of the correction of DNB of university students. Methods: online questionnaire based on SLiCE study, which measures the frequency of different types of RB and DNB of a typical student. Sample: 403 university students (69.5% of females). Data analysis: frequency analysis, Pearson correlation coefficient, one-way and two-way Anova, post-hoc tests. Results: Statistical analyses have shown significant positive relationships between individual types of RB and DNP, the tendency of overestimation of typical students’ RB and accumulation of individual types of RB among university students. Conclusion: The findings are supportive of the significance of correcting students’ descriptive normative beliefs as a part of intervention programmes aimed at reduction of RB among university students.

Aim: To study the in/direct relationship between fear of COVID-19 contraction and academic stress during the first wave of the pandemic. Method: The sample consisted of 835 university students (597 female students, 71.5%, M = 22.71 years of age, SD = 3.69). Data were gathered online by the questionnaire of the international study The COVID-19 International Student Well-being Study (C19 ISWS). Results: An above-average level of academic stress and a below-average gender-related level of fear of contracting the virus were found. The relationship between fear of contracting the virus and academic stress was serially mediated by loneliness and depressive symptoms. Conclusion: The findings stress the importance of monitoring the level of fear of virus contraction and the student-perceived perspective of academic achievement during actions taken by academic authorities to support the quality of teaching and students’ mental health.
