The Monetary Value of Saving a High-Risk Youth

Programs targeted at high-risk youth are designed to prevent high-school dropout, crime, drug abuse, and other forms of delinquency. Even if shown to be successful in reducing one or more social ill, a key policy question is whether the cost to society from that intervention program exceeds its benefits. Although the costs of intervention programs are often available, the benefits are more illusive. This paper provides estimates of the potential benefits from “saving” a high-risk youth, by estimating the lifetime costs associated with the typical career criminal, drug abuser, and high-school dropout. In the absence of controlled experimental data on the number of career criminals averted, one can ask the reverse question—How many career criminals must be prevented before the program “pays for itself?” Based on a 2% discount rate, the typical career criminal causes $1.3–$1.5 million in external costs; a heavy drug user, $370,000 to $970,000; and a high-school dropout, $243,000 to $388,000. Eliminating duplication between crimes committed by individuals who are both heavy drug users and career criminals results in an overall estimate of the “monetary value of saving a high-risk youth” of $1.7 to $2.3 million.

论虚拟实践的崛起对当代青年的负面影响

青年是虚拟实践的最主要的主体,虚拟实践的崛起为青年人提供一种新的生存方式。虚拟实践是一把双刃剑,它的崛起给青年人带来了诸多负面影响,主要表现在以下四个方面:虚拟实践具有技术依赖性,易使青年人轻视人文素养的提高;虚拟实践具有沉浸性,易使青年人偏离现实生活;虚拟实践具有隐匿性,易使青年人形成双重人格;虚拟实践具有"消解权威、去中心"性,易助长青年人的个人主义价值观。     

论李大钊的青年思想政治教育观

李大钊非常重视中国青年的健康成长及青年思想政治教育的作用,重视向青年灌输马克思主义的政治观,并积极倡导青年走与工农相结合的实践观,强调青年应树立正确的人生观、爱国主义观,形成了其关于青年思想政治教育的重要思想,这些思想对当代中国青年仍然具有重要的指导意义。     

思维方式教育:青少年心理健康教育的基础

思维方式教育是心理健康教育的有益补充。由于思维方式包括了价值标准、思维视野、观念因素、思维方法等内容,因而它也是实现心理健康教育与价值观教育、思想品德教育整合的基础。对于思维和心理都处在形成发展过程中的青少年来说,思维方式教育应该是心理健康教育的重要组成部分,是心理健康教育的基础性工作。心理健康教育必须与思维方式教育同步进行。     

Using ‘Participatory’ Methods with Young People in Contexts of Violence: Reflections from Guatemala

This article is based on research carried out with young people in Guatemala City, in communities with a high incidence of youth gang violence. The demands of working with a traditionally ‘disempowered’ social group, youth, and in situations of violence, provide a timely opportunity for methodological reflection. The central objective is to discuss the means through which perceptions and experiences of gang violence were reported during the research. It deals in particular with the relative benefits of Participatory Appraisal methods in research with young people in situations of violence. Empirical material from Guatemala is used to reflect on the particular ways in which violence is variously revealed and explained. It also comments on the ways in which violence, in turn, impacted upon the conduct of the research itself.
