“…Today, applications in online environments have become an indispensable part of our lives. This situation has brought many negativities such as smartphone addiction, cyberbullying, internet addiction, intense social media use, and digital game addiction (Bakioğlu, 2020;Peker, 2019;Savcı & Aysan, 2017;Savcı et al, 2020;Savcı et al, 2021;Traş et al, 2019).

This study aims to develop a valid and reliable measurement tool to determine trolling in online environments. Two different study groups were used in the study. The study group for the exploratory factor analysis consisted of 493 university students (72.2% female; 27.8% male). The study group for confirmatory factor analysis consisted of 690 university students (71.7% female; 28.3% male). As a result of the exploratory factor analysis, it was seen that it consisted of 16 items and 3 sub-dimensions that explained 56.80% of the variance. The model obtained after the exploratory factor analysis was tested with confirmatory factor analysis and it was determined that the fit index values were within acceptable limits. The criterion validity of the scale was carried out with the Revised Cyberbullying Scale for University Students. Whereas the Cronbach alpha value for the entire scale was .89 for all of the scales, the same was found for sub-dimensions as .85, .73, and .66. As a result, it can be stated that the scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool.

“…En cuanto a la prevalencia de consumo de sustancias, los hombres presentaron un mayor porcentaje en cinco de los siete comportamientos de riesgo, a diferencia de las mujeres, tales como el consumo de tabaco, marihuana y drogas ilegales, así como inicio temprano de las relaciones sexuales y consumo de sustancias antes de tener relaciones sexuales, coincidiendo con estudios previos donde los hombres suelen involucrarse en mayores comportamientos de riesgo (Savci et al, 2021). Una posible explicación se encuentra en el contexto cultural, donde la construcción de la masculinidad tradicional favorece la aceptación del consumo de sustancias en los hombres, a diferencia de las mujeres, las cuales si consumen podrían tener un mayor castigo social (Moreno, 2020;Rodríguez-Planasa et al, 2022); pero además porque el daño que hacen sustancias como el alcohol al organismo es mayor en mujeres que en hombres (Patrick & Azar, 2018;Villalbí et al, 2020) generando desaprobación en el consumo abusivo.…”

Introducción: la violencia en el noviazgo es un problema de salud pública, que se ha relacionado con comportamien-tos de riesgo tales como el consumo de tabaco, alcohol, drogas ilegales y comportamientos sexuales de riesgo. En México los antecedentes son pocos y no son consistentes. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este estudio transversal fue determinar si existía relación entre la violencia en el noviazgo y el consumo de alcohol, tabaco, drogas y las conductas sexuales de riesgo, en población joven mexicana, según sexo. Método: participaron 3,139 estudiantes (M = 18.87, DE = 1.33), el 64.2% fueron mujeres. Resultados y conclusiones: se encontró que el 3.3% experimentó al menos una vez violencia física y el 2.4% violencia sexual. Se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre hombres y mujeres para los comportamientos de riesgo de consumo de tabaco, alcohol, drogas ilegales y conducta sexual, donde las mujeres tuvieron una mayor prevalencia. Se encontró que solo existe relación entre el consumo de drogas ilegales y la violencia sexual para el caso de las mujeres. Futuros estudios podrían verificar si estos resultados se man-tienen en otras muestras mexicanas y con instrumentos que exploren también conductas de violencia psicológica.

This study examines adolescent game usage and corresponding health-related risk behaviors during a period of limited social interaction and activity due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants included 225 middle- and 225 high-school students in Seoul who completed a survey online from October 1 to 30, 2021. The study measured participants’ game usage level and the health-related risk behavior index. Findings showed that participants who engaged in excessive gaming showed higher levels of health-related risk behaviors. A multivariate analysis of variance was conducted to compare the health-related risk behaviors of students in the general, potential, and high-risk groups on excessive gaming. Results indicated that female students in the high-risk group showed higher stress levels and fatigue (f = 5.549, p < .01, Cohen’s d = 0.016) than the males of the same group. However, male students showed higher physical inactivity levels (f = 3.195, p > .05, Cohen’s d = 0.009) than females. The post hoc test indicated clear sex distinctions among the general, potential, and high-risk groups on excessive gaming (p < .001). Among the high-risk game usage group, female students displayed a higher level of risk behaviors than males. Adolescent gaming addiction should be considered an emotional and behavioral disorder for which parental guidance and support are needed, and counseling experts and professionals must come together to provide a cure and reform program.
