    In this digital era, the use of social media has grown very rapidly. The use of TikTok social media among teenagers is considered as a place where they can find their identity, so the presence of TikTok is a very interesting phenomenon among teenagers. This study aims to determine the identity of the use of virtual tiktok in adolescents in the Jakarta. This research method is descriptive with a qualitative approach by interviewing adolescent informants (15-24 years) in the Jakarta who actively use Tik Tok social media as a primary data collection technique and also conduct literature and documentation studies as secondary data. In the results of the study, social media users, especially teenagers who use TikTok can control various aspects of themselves that they want to be displayed in digital public spaces. There are several teenagers who fall into the real-life identity type and some for pseudonymity (real identity begins to blur and even fake), none of them have fully become anonymized in this study because each content they create is often held by themselves and things they enter into. It's also an identity because with their faces people will recognize them and it doesn't really matter to them if there are other teenagers who choose to become different (anonymity)

    \u27Do We Still Quake?\u27: An Ethnographic and Historical Enquiry

    Full text link
    Michele Tarter\u27s (2004) essay, on first generation Friends and their prophecy of celestial flesh, explores the striking bodily manifestations of their spiritual experience, particularly \u27quaking\u27. Reflecting on this, she writes: \u27it is precisely what we no longer do: quake\u27. Using interview data from a small group of British Friends I shall show that some twenty-first-century Friends certainly do quake. I use accounts of early quaking, a variety of Quaker commentators, and historical accounts of the understanding of the body, to show the ways in which current quaking is different, and differently understood, from that of early Friends

    Offenders’ perceptions of the UK prison smoking ban

    Get PDF
    Purpose Despite overall reductions in levels of smoking in the UK, rates of offender smoking remain high. In 2016, it was announced that prisons in England and Wales would gradually introduce a smoking ban. The purpose of this paper is to explore offenders’ perceptions around the upcoming smoking ban. Design/methodology/approach A total of eight focus groups were conducted in four prisons across the North of England. Both smoking and non-smoking offenders participated in the focus groups, and thematic analysis was used to explore the findings. Findings Themes generated from the data were “freedom and rights”, “the prison environment” and “guiding support”. Participants discussed how the smoking ban was viewed as a punishment and restricted their freedom, with perceptions as to why the ban was being implemented centring around others trying to control them. Participants expressed concerns around the financial implications of the smoking ban on already stretched prison resources. Participants also recommended improving the nicotine replacement therapy on offer, and increasing the range of leisure activities within the prison to prepare for the smoking ban. Originality/value Overall, it was apparent that participants’ awareness of the smoking ban was generally poor. It is recommended that offenders need to be made more aware of the smoking cessation support they will receive and given the opportunity to ask questions about the smoking ban. Increasing offenders’ awareness of the ban may reduce stress associated with a perceived lack of choice around their smoking behaviours
