Impact of a school-based prevention programme on traditional and egalitarian adolescents' safer sex intentions
Article Abstract:
Impact of a 2-day school-based sexual reduction program based on social cognitive theory on adolescent's knowledge, information need, problem-solving and communication skills, intention to talk about, and practice safe sex was analyzed. Results show that positive effects were evident on the students' knowledge-gain, perception of skills and frequency of skills. Results further reveal that social influence plays an important role on safe sex behavior since the impact varied among the subjects with different gender role attitude.

The effects of an anti-bullying intervention programme on peers' attitudes and behavior
Article Abstract:
A study evaluated outcomes of a curriculum-based anti-bullying intervention among peers, using an experimental pre-test/post-test design. Positive outcomes were observed at post-test one for secondary school students, although the effects had disappeared at post-test two. For primary school students there was a smaller decline in seeking teacher's help and increased students' support for victims.
