Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the following questions. It is very common for young people to look towards other people who are in the same situation. Unfortunately, this is not a very healthy action as most people make bad decisions, but because young people don’t know any better, they will decide to join in. There are, however, cases in which being influenced by your peers could be very beneficial to students. Believe it or not, but positive peer pressure is more common than negative peer pressure. An example of positive peer pressure is when all of your friends are encouraging you to join the debate team to help deal with a fear of speaking to new people. This creates confidence and can lead to positive effects throughout your life. People are more likely to engage in popular positive events. If something is popular and good, people will feel pressure to do something good and it is popular so it will not be criticised. This creates a positive feedback loop as when more people do the act, more people will see it and would like to engage in it. This is why positive peer pressure is more widespread than negative peer pressure. Positive peer pressure is more likely to be promoted and passed on and it sets up people for success. On the other hand, negative peer pressure has a bigger impact on young people based on the American Psychological Association because the negative peer pressure effects, they have more long term effects. This is because most of the negative effects are more addictive rather than the positive effects. Negative peer pressure causes more damage than positive peer pressure. An example of negative peer pressure is when a friend convinces you to start drinking alcohol. If a student starts drinking alcohol at a young age, it could hinder growth of the brain. According to National Center for Biotechnology Information, “Studies reveal that youth who started drinking before age 15, compared to those who waited until they were 21, were 12 times more likely to be unintentionally injured while under the influence of alcohol, 7 times more likely to be in a motor vehicle crash after drinking, and 10 times more likely to have been in a physical fight after drinking.” Most of these negative effects are highly addictive and are spread through friend groups.

Task 3. Read the passage and decide whether the following statements are true (T), false (F) or not given (NG). The most common type of harassment youth encounter online is name-calling. Some 42% of teens say they have been called offensive names online or via their cell phones. Additionally, about a third (32%) of teens say someone has spread false rumours about them on the internet, while smaller shares have had someone other than a parent constantly ask where they are, who they’re with or what they’re doing (21%) or have been the target of physical threats online (16%). While texting and digital messaging are a central way teens build and maintain relationships, this level of connectivity may lead to potential problems. One-quarter of teens say they have been sent offensive images they didn’t ask for, while 7% say someone has shared their offensive images without their knowing. These experiences are particularly concerning to parents. Fully 57% of parents of teens say they worry about their teen receiving or sending offensive images, including about one-quarter who say this worries them a lot, according to a separate Center survey of parents. The vast majority of teens (90% in this case) believe online harassment is a problem that affects people of their age, and 63% say this is a major problem. But majorities of young people think key groups, such as teachers, social media companies and politicians are failing to tackle this issue. By contrast, teens have a more positive assessment of the way parents are addressing cyberbullying.

Bullying leads to a decrease in academic performance. A study by CDC researchers showed that 12.9% of teenagers who missed school due to safety concerns feared bullying. Victims of bullying may also avoid participating in class for fear of drawing attention to themselves and getting bullied. They may then become labelled as low achievers, putting them at an even higher risk of being targeted by bullies. Like all forms of bullying, physical bullying can cause emotional change. It makes the victims feel unconfident and think less of themselves. This leads to feelings of shame, isolation, and despair. Moreover, the child may lose interest in playing or activities they previously enjoyed and engage in harmful behaviour, such as self-harm. These actions lead to more negative feelings and thoughts, creating a self-destructive cycle. In victims with existing depression and anxiety, bullying can make these conditions worse. Besides the physical injuries, victims may get from the attacks, they may also develop health issues, such as somatization. Somatization includes physical symptoms caused by psychological or emotional factors. For instance, the child may complain about headaches, body pain, or tiredness.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. Assessing law and policy responses In the past 15 years, all 50 states and the District of Columbia have adopted or revised anti-bullying laws. While this legislative action is promising, few studies have measured the actual impact of anti-bullying laws and policies. Law has played a key role in responding to many public health issues, from infectious diseases to road safety. To ensure it does the same for bullying prevention, a process for continually assessing and refining anti-bullying laws and policies is needed, according to the Academies report. Among other things, the Academies report calls for an annual meeting among policymakers, social scientists and professionals who work with children to review research that assesses the implementation and effect of anti-bullying laws and policies. The aim is to develop better evidence and ensure that research informs decisions Congress and the state legislatures make to address bullying. Identifying bullying Research shows that many schools and teachers continue to have trouble identifying bullying and deal with it successfully. An essential step to identification of bullying is training for teachers and others who work with children and adolescents. As the Academies report recommends, “evidence-informed bullying prevention training should be provided for individuals, both professionals and volunteers, who work directly with children and adolescents on a regular basis.” The report notes that such training programs must be ongoing and evaluated to ensure that professionals and volunteers who work with youth can effectively identify bullying and intervene appropriately.
