“…The participants completed the psychological positive health and health complaint items in the classroom with trained investigators, whereas the parents completed the parental educational level item. All the questions used have shown to be valid and reliable: parental educational level (Currie et al , ), perceived health status (Idler & Benyamini ), life satisfaction (Currie et al ), quality of family relationships and quality of peers relationships (del Carmen et al ), academic performance (Currie et al ) and health complaints (Hagquist & Andrich ).…”

“…Quality of peer relationships: The participants indicated how easy (four-point scale: very easy, easy, difficult, very difficult) was to talk with friends about things that were bothering them (del Carmen et al 2002). In those cases when the participant had no relationships with friends, the answer was 'I do not have relationships'.…”

Current results provide evidence that children having parents with a university degree (father, mother or both) are more likely to have higher psychological positive health and lower health complaints than children reporting parents with non-university studies. This is particularly important for the welfare policy that must pay attention for implementing programs for helping population to access to university studies by their impact on youth health.

“…21 studies focused primarily on alcohol abuse, with a secondary focus on other areas such as biological and genetic issues [39,40], cross-addictions [41–43], migration [44], violence [45,46], relations with parents and adults outside the family [47–50] and children’s health behaviour [51–56]. In the 57 remaining studies, alcohol use and abuse were supplemented as part of larger national public health surveys or as part of cross-national public surveys.…”

Objective: This study undertakes a mapping review of mainly concerning children and youth in Greenland in the period 1976–2016 and reflects on how the research has been conducted and knowledge thereby created about children and youth in Greenland, as well as how the research has been developed over time.Design: 16 online databases; five journals; publication lists originating from seven organisations and ten prominent researchers; and local network and references were used in the search and subsequently screened through the scoping criteria. 342 publications were included, encompassing knowledge based on empirical research on children and youth in Greenland within the broader field of psychology.Results: The majority of studies, 71%, were conducted through quantitative methods. The qualitative research is represented in 22% of the studies and participatory and action-orientated research is represented in 7% of the studies. The most prominent themes in research concerning children and youth in Greenland were physical problems, which were found in 38% of the studies.Conclusions: The result reflects a consistent objectivity and quantitative methodology in health research in Greenland since 1991.The health research thus represents a united research community with a shared methodological research approach, while the local participatory action research projects all appear differentiated. While health research covers a spectrum of psychology related objectives, the methodology traditions reveal a specific kind of knowledge, which has come to determine how the mental health of the Greenlandic children is perceived. We believe that more qualitative and locally grounded approaches need to be organised in order to produce a more nuanced knowledge of the Greenlandic children and youth.

“…For alcohol, social motives seem to be associated with moderate use in youth while coping motives were associated with alcohol-related problems (1 ). More Greenlandic trends in smoking and alcohol use schoolchildren in broken or reconstructed families in Greenland smoke and drink alcohol, and more students who drink alcohol rate the communication with their parents as poor (13,14). Coping might be a part of the explanation.…”

Objectives. To examine the development of smoking and alcohol use among Greenlandic schoolchildren and propose future preventive strategies. Study design. National survey in schoolchildren grade 6-11. Methods. Analysis of data from the 1994, 1998, 00 and 006 Health Behaviour in SchoolAged Children (HBSC) surveys in Greenland. Trends in the prevalence of the categories never having smoked, non-smoking, daily smoking, never tried alcohol, never been drunk and been drunk 4 times or more were calculated for children and youth aged 11, 13 and 15. In the data from 006, the age trends for daily smoking and getting drunk 4 or more times, the assessment of risks attributed to substance use and the perception of how easy it was to access cigarettes and alcohol were analysed. Results. A decrease in daily smokers and in children having been drunk 4 or more times and an increase in non-smokers and in children that had never been drunk was found in both genders among children and youth aged 13 and 15. Among youth aged 15 to 17 years, both cigarettes and alcohol were reported as easy to access. Risk assessment was different for alcohol and cigarettes, as well as between genders. Conclusions. A decline in the use of tobacco and alcohol among Greenlandic school children was ascertained. Due to the children's evaluation of easy access and risk regarding smoking and alcohol use, some general recommendations regarding future focus areas of prevention were proposed.
