A Longitudinal Examination of Peer Victimization on Depressive Symptoms Among Asian American School‑Aged Youth

The current study sought to examine the prospective relationship of peer victimization on changes in Asian American youth’s depressive symptoms during early adolescence, a crucial period for the development of depression and engagement in peer victimization among youth. Further, as guided by cultural–ecological frameworks, the current study also sought to examine the role of school-based peer support and gender as moderators on the relationship between peer victimization and depressive symptoms among this understudied population. Participants included Asian American youth (N = 232; M age = 12.96, SD = 1.40; 51% girls) who completed questionnaires in the school context. Data for this study included two measurement occasions over a 1-year interval. Results indicated that high levels of adolescents’ perceptions of peer victimization were associated with increased levels of depressive symptoms 1 year later. Additionally, results indicated that peer victimization interacted with reports of peer support within school, such that under conditions of moderate to high levels of school-based peer support, high levels of peer victimization related to increased depressive symptoms. Findings contribute to our understanding of the development of depressive symptoms among early adolescent Asian American youth and have implications for school-based depression prevention programming for Asian American youth

The self-understandings and everyday lives of gay men in Hainan

PhD ThesisDrawing on 18 months of ethnographic fieldwork in Hainan, People’s Republic of China (PRC), especially 30 semi-structured interviews, this thesis explores the self-understandings and everyday lives of men who recognised themselves as gay, homosexual, tongzhi (comrade), and/or ‘in the scene’ (quanneiren). Given the choice of field site, this thesis is one of a handful of sociological studies to explore the lives of non-heterosexual people in the PRC outside of major urban centres, and potentially the first to do so in a region that has historically been considered ‘marginal’. As such, an exploratory approach is taken in engaging with a range of concepts and contexts that participants saw as central to their self-understandings and everyday lives. Specifically, this thesis explores the ways in which participants constructed and experienced ‘the scene’ (quan) as a framework of social-sexual belonging, perceived internet technologies as having deeply impacted their everyday lives, and narrated their lives as dis/oriented towards certain futures. These issues can be seen as complexly intertwined; they are drawn together in this thesis under an overarching concern for the ways in which participants negotiated understandings of themselves, in relation to others, within socio-cultural and material contexts of emergent social-sexual possibilities and pervasive pressures to marry and have children. In exploring these issues, this thesis draws upon a range of sociological and anthropological perspectives.Economic and Social Research Counci

Stigma Is the Origin of Bullying

Bullying in schools has escalated far beyond childhood teasing. In recent years, torture, murder, and suicide have been associated with bullying (van der Kolk et al., 2007). While bullying is unacceptable behavior in any school, it is particularly problematic in Catholic schools, which must embody Gospel values. Catholic education rests upon essential foundations, three of which include a Christian understanding of what constitutes humanity, finds expression in community formed through communion and essential relationship, and which is itself exemplified and sustained by a Gospel witness (Miller, 2006). This article draws from national news stories about court cases related to bullying in Catholic schools. It explores the notion of bullying as a result of stigmatization and uses the extended example of diabetes as a cause for stigma. It concludes with recommendations for Catholic school leaders to address bullying in schools. Keywords Bullying, stigma, diabetes, school leadership, discipline Stigmatiser est à l\u27origine des brimades Les brimades à l\u27école ont pris des proportions qui vont bien au-delà des taquineries de l\u27enfance. Ces dernières années, torture, meurtre et suicide ont été associés aux brimades (van der Kolk et al., 2007). Alors que les brimades constituent un comportement inacceptable dans n\u27importe quelle école, elles posent un problème particulier dans les écoles catholiques qui doivent incarner les valeurs de l\u27Évangile. L\u27éducation catholique repose sur des fonctions essentielles, dont trois comportent une position chrétienne sur ce qui constitue l\u27humanité, trouve son expression dans la communauté constituée grâce à la communion et un lien essentiel, lui-même illustré et maintenu par un témoin de l\u27Évangile. Cet article s\u27inspire de faits divers sur des cas juridiques en rapport avec les brimades dans les écoles catholiques. Il étudie la notion des brimades comme la conséquence de la stigmatisation et prend l\u27exemple élargi du diabète comme une cause de stigmatisation. Il se conclut par des recommandations aux dirigeants des écoles catholiques pour traiter les brimades à l\u27école. Mots-clés : brimades, stigmate, diabète, dirigeant des écoles, discipline El estigma, origen del bullying El bullying o acoso escolar se ha intensificado mucho más allá de lo que son las burlas infantiles. En los últimos años, se han asociado la tortura, el asesinato y el suicidio con el acoso escolar (van der Kolk et al., 2007). Aunque el acoso escolar es un comportamiento inaceptable en cualquier escuela, es particularmente problemático en las escuelas católicas dado que deben encarnar los valores del Evangelio. La educación católica reposa sobre fundaciones esenciales, tres de las cuales incluyen el entendimiento cristiano de lo que constituye la humanidad, su manifestación en la comunidad formada a través de la comunión y de la relación esencial, y su ejemplificación y sustento mediante el testimonio evangélico (Miller, 2006). Este artículo parte de noticias nacionales sobre casos judiciales relacionadas con el acoso escolar en escuelas católicas. Explora la noción de bullying como resultado de la estigmatización y emplea el ejemplo extendido de la diabetes como causa de estigma. Concluye con recomendaciones para que los líderes de escuelas católicas aborden el tema del acoso escolar. Palabras clave bullying, acoso escolar, estigma, diabetes, liderazgo escolar, disciplin

Cultural Connections Through Music: Finding Belonging

Major Research Paper (Master’s) approved with distinction, Faculty of Music, York UniversityThere has been little documentation about the history and development of Chinese music, specifically traditional Chinese orchestral music, of the Chinese diaspora in Canada. Music is an important link for immigrants to their homeland and serves to bring people together and preserve cultural heritage. After generations of living in Canada, music can also bring connection to Chinese Canadians who are searching for their cultural roots. Finally, this music can help bridge with cultures outside of the Chinese community. In this paper, I will explain the role of the Chinese orchestra in the diaspora, document its history and development, impact on individuals and their communities, their challenges, and successes. The history and legacy of Toronto’s first Chinese orchestra, the Chinese Instrumental Music Group of Toronto, will also be explored. I will summarize firsthand interviews with traditional musicians, leaders, and founders of Chinese orchestras across Canada, providing valuable insight into their experiences in this artform, far away from Asia. An essential application of this research is to discover ways for these musicians and orchestras to work together, exchange ideas and find solutions to ensure the future and development of this unique and valuable musical genre
