“…For example, high rates of adolescent sedentary behaviours have been associated with patterns of physical and psychological health in one study by Ussher et al [ 76 ]. Different variables were found as predictors of this class, and this is in line with several studies that found children and adolescents with highly-educated parents as being more likely to display positive psychological health and fewer health complaints than youth with less educated parents, which highlights the need for programs helping people access university studies [ 77 ]. Although adolescents from class 5 show the highest percentage of high fitness levels, they are significantly more at risk of lower body maximal strength, muscular endurance, and speed and agility compared with class 1.…”

The aim of the present investigation was to describe profiles of adolescents’ fitness level, identify latent classes of fitness-related risk behaviours, and describe their sociodemographic and environmental predictors. In total, 883 adolescents (16.4 ± 1.4 years; 167.3 ± 10.4 cm; 62.8 ± 13.5 kg; 62.2% males) were assessed for personal and lifestyle information and for physical fitness components. Eleven possible fitness determinants and seven predictors were included. Latent class analysis (LCA) was used to determine fitness-related risk behaviours. Logistic regressions predicted class membership and assessed associations with fitness levels and fitness components. Five latent classes were recognised: 1—virtuous, 30.7% of respondents; 2—low physical activity/sport, 18.8%; 3—incorrect alcohol/food habits, 25.8%; 4—health risk/overweight, 15.9%; 5—malaise/diseases, 8.8%. Sex, age, parents’ overweightness/obesity and education, and school type predicted most classes significantly. Compared to class 1, class 2 had higher odds of having all poor fitness components except upper body maximal strength; class 4 had higher risk of low muscular endurance; and class 5 was likely to have lower maximal strength, muscular endurance, and speed/agility. Educating adolescents to reach a sufficient practice of PA/sport could help decreasing the risk of low health-related fitness more than discouraging them from using alcohol, addressing proper food behaviours and habits, and helping them understand their psychophysical malaise symptoms.

“…Differences according to the parents' educational level were remarkable in aspects related to attitudes that conform to generally accepted standards of courtesy and kindness, to sharing or storage of patients' information and to the duty of con dentiality about intimate data and biographical aspects of the patient. Several studies report that higher parental socioeconomic status was correlated to better performances and mental health among students [28][29][30]. This association may explain our results, since higher educational level is usually associated with higher socioeconomic status.…”

Background: During clinical rotations, medical students experience situations in which the patients’ right to privacy may be violated. The aim of this study is to analyze medical students' perception of clinical situations that affect patients' right to privacy or intimacy, and to look for the influential factors that may contribute to the infringement on their rights, such as age, gender, academic year or parents’ educational level.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a survey via “Google Drive”. It consisted of 16 questions about personal information, 24 questions about their experience when rotating and 22 questions about their opinion concerning several situations related to the right to privacy. Results: 129 medical students from various Spanish medical schools participated. Only 31% of 3rd-6th year students declared to have signed a confidentiality agreement when starting their clinical practice, and most students (52%) reported that doctors “sometimes”, “rarely” or “never” introduce themselves and the students when entering the patients’ rooms. Additionally, about 50% of all students reported that they would take a picture of a patient’s hospitalization report without his/her (consent), which would be useful for an assignment. Conclusions: Important mistakes during medical students’ rotations have been observed, as well as general lack of knowledge regarding patient’s right to privacy among Spanish medical students. Men and older students showed better knowledge of current legislation, as well as those whose parents were both college-educated and those in higher academic years. Informative courses and law teaching should be enhanced so that patients’ right to privacy may be better guaranteed.

“…Life satisfaction significantly differed according to paternal education, although the link is more U-shaped than linear. While some previous studies justified an association, (38) other studies found only a limited role of parental education in children's life satisfaction. (39) On the other hand, those with the best educated mothers reported the highest level of self-esteem.…”

Background: Socioeconomic inequalities play an important role in health. Although studies report less inequalities in adolescent health compared to other age groups, there may be differences in their health behavior and mental health. Objective(s): This cross-sectional pilot study aimed to analyze these associations. Methods: Using a sample of students (n = 112, aged 13-18 years) data were collected from public and private schools in Irbid governorate, Jordan, November, 2018. Measurements included socioeconomic status indicators (education and income of the parents, assessed by the adolescent), the Global School-based Student Health Survey, health behaviors (tobacco use, personal hygiene, dietary behavior), Satisfaction with Life Scale, Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale for Children. Results: The results indicated that there was a significant association between the family affluence and both paternal (p= 0.003) and maternal educational levels (p= 0.008). There was a relationship between paternal education and not having enough food at home (p= 0.006), adolescents' eating fruit per week (p= 0.037), and washing their hands before eating (p= 0.004). Maternal education level was related to the students' eating vegetables (p= 0.011) and fruits (p = 0.030) per week. The association of family affluence with eating fast food was significant (p= 0.05). The relationship of depression and family affluence was linear. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that adolescents' health behavior may dominantly be related to paternal education, while their mental health may be related to family affluence. The data of this study will help in establishing effective and efficient counseling and support intervention programs.
