The adverse dyadic friendship (ADF): An exploratory retrospective view of female adolescents
INTRODUCTION: Friendships of adolescent girls play a significant role in providing socio-emotional support and enabling the attainment of developmental tasks. The present exploratory paper focuses on an aspect of close friendships that has yet to be widely examined, which we described as the Adverse Dyadic Friendship (ADF). This is a friendship whose negative elements are perceived from the distance of time as outweighing its positive ones. METHO…
Adolescents who turn to service providers for guidance: The perspectives of informal sources of support
Research suggests that youth rarely seek formal help for their problems and tend to turn for assistance to those with whom they interact regularly. The current investigations examined the help-seeking patterns of teenagers in their relationships with service providers from the service providers’ perspectives. A preliminary quantitative study (Study 1), based on responses of 424 service providers, examined service providers' view of adolescents’ a…
Patterns of online seeking and providing help among adolescents: A preliminary study
We proposed a typology of adolescents’ online support-related behaviours based on two facets: help-seeking and help-providing: (1) Transceivers seek and provide help; (2) Receivers seek help but do not provide it; (3) Transmitters provide help, yet do not seek it; and (4) Idlers refrain from seeking and providing help. Of the 528 adolescents, the largest group are Transceivers (45%), and they seek help mainly from peers through social networking …
Psychological functioning during the Covid-19 lockdown: The role of exposure to continuous traumatic stress in conflict-ridden regions
The present study investigates the role of two risk factors (exposure to continuous traumatic stress and unemployment) and two psychological stress-related factors (resilience and coping) on individuals' emotional state during the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak. The data were collected using online questionnaire from 778 individuals in April 2020 during Israel's first lockdown. Israeli citizens who had been exposed for many years to recu…
Teachers' Approaches Toward Cultural Diversity Predict Diversity-Related Burnout and Self-Efficacy
We examine the ways in which, and the extent to which, DOPA (Diversity in Organizations: Perceptions and Approaches; that is, asset, problem, challenge, or nonissue) approaches predict teachers' diversity-related burnout and immigration-related self-efficacy. One hundred thirty-six schoolteachers completed a self-report questionnaire measuring diversity-related burnout and self-efficacy, approaches toward cultural diversity, attitudes toward mult…
School counsellors working with immigrant pupils: Changes in Their Approaches After 10 Years
Counselling culturally diverse populations poses several challenges for mental health professionals in schools as well as the wider community. In 1998, the author interviewed counsellors working in Israeli schools, and categorised their approaches to immigrant pupils in four broad categories: culturally encapsulated assimilator, self-facilitator, specialist and cultural translator. The majority of counsellors (51%) were categorised as culturally …
Constructing Counseling Through Narrating Adolescence
Education in a plural society or multicultural education? The views of Israeli Arab and Jewish school counselors
We suggest that in societies with highly complex and conflictual cultural diversity, different perceptions of pluralism and multiculturalism are likely to be related to divergent expectations for multicultural education. Our study examines—through semi‐structured interviews—the perceptions of cultural pluralism and multicultural education among 37 Israeli school counselors from two national groups—Arabs and Jews. Our findings suggest that the maj…

Psychological Adjustment Among Israeli Adolescent Immigrants: A Report on Life Satisfaction, Self-Concept, and Self-Esteem
Secondary school pupils' perceptions of burnout among teachers
Background. Numerous studies examined teachers' self-reports concerning their occupational burnout. Given that pupils are in a prime position to assess teachers' burnout, due to their intensive daily contact with their teachers and because some of pupils' behaviours can induce stress, the present study focuses on a relatively unexplored topic, namely the meanings that adolescents attach to burnout among their teachers. Aims. This study was aimed …
Teachers as significant others: Gender Differences in Secondary School Pupils' Perceptions
Background. Numerous studies refer to the impact of parents and friends as significant others for adolescents. Given the unique nature of the relationships between teachers and their pupils and their intensive everyday interactions, the present study focuses on a not yet covered topic, namely the meanings that adolescents attach to the significance of their teachers.Aims. This study was aimed at examining gender differences in secondary school pu…
The effects of counsellor's experience and tendency to elicit disclosure on perceptions of individual counselling in school settings
Immigrant and host pupils' expectations of teachers
This study examined expectations of teachers on the part of immigrant pupils and their host peers, as well as the expectations which members of each of these groups attribute to their counterparts in the other group. Questionnaires were administered to 1710 pupils in Israeli primary and secondary schools—610 immigrants from the former Soviet Union and 1100 of their classmates. Immigrant and host respondents were asked to indicate the extent to wh…
The Prestige of the High School as Viewed by Parents
Rather than being an inherent attribute of the school, prestige is conceived as attribute conferred upon the school by the public. The present research sought to explore the factors that contribute to the prestige of high schools, in the view of parents. Data were obtained from 465 parents of 9th and 11th graders attending 18 state‐secular junior and senior high schools. Educational attainment was found to be the prime correlate of school prestig…
