This study is about committing anti-social activities like: theft, illicit sexual relations, use and trafficking of drugs, fighting, destruction of property and cheating (juvenile Delinquency) by high school students ages 14-18 in Kisii Central Sub-County, Getembe Zone, Kenya. The purpose of the study was to explain the extent to which suicidal ideation, help-seeking behaviour, and use of media influence JD among secondary school students in Kisii Central Sub-County, Getembe Zone. It was also about the extent of differences in JD according to family type and perceived social class. The objective dealt with in this paper was to investigate the relationship between help-seeking behaviour and Juvinile Delinquency among secondary school adolescents in Kisii county, Kenya. Kisii Central Sub-County was selected because no similar study has been done there and because acts of student violence are apparent there. Probability and non-probability sampling methods were used. Questionnaires were used to collect data from students and teachers, interview schedules for principals, and focus group discussion questions were used on parents. The results indicated that respondents who scored highly in help-seeking behaviour were more delinquent than those that had a low score. The conclusion was that young people who think that they do seek help probably seek it from irresponsible people. It was therefore recommended that youths should be sensitized to seek help from caring persons in order to reduce cases of juvenile delinquency.

Indigenous environmental mythology has long been an essential component of many communities' ecological and cultural systems in the Rivers State, Nigerian These myths, which usually stem from the notion that nature is untouchable, offer crucial insights into the practices of traditional forest protection. This study looks into how these indigenous myths could help with current conservation efforts, particularly those that are meant to protect forest resources. By examining a number of myths and the associated behaviours, the study demonstrated how these cultural narratives have historically controlled human interaction with the environment, ensuring the sustainable use of forest resources. It also suggested how community members can remain involved in the conservation of forest resources. The study pointed out the forest's critical role in the welfare of rural Nigerian households. Therefore, the more community people participate in sustainable forest management, the more the forests contribute to meeting the needs of rural Nigerian household welfare. Thus, it was concluded that community involvement not only protects people of the community's means of sustenance but also enhances the social, economic, and environmental aspects of forestry efforts.

Background: Mental health issues, such as stress, anxiety, and depression, are becoming more common among high school students, yet cultural stigma and inadequate mental health literacy impede effective help-seeking in Vietnam. Adolescents sometimes encounter obstacles in identifying mental health issues and obtaining suitable resources, particularly in environments where professional services are inadequate and mental health is stigmatized. Purpose: This study aims to address the comprehension of mental health awareness and help-seeking behaviors among Vietnamese high school students. Methods: The study involved 422 high school students from four cities in Vietnam. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21) and Mental Health Literacy Scale (MHLS) were employed to evaluate mental health awareness and behavior, with data processed utilizing SPSS version 22.0. Result: Students exhibited the greatest awareness of bipolar disorder (M = 4.43, SD = 0.844). Students experience a moderate to high level of anxiety when they become aware of potential mental health issues (M = 3.50, SD = 1.296). In order of priority, students actively seek information about mental health professionals (M = 3.88, SD = 0.645). Students are highly critical and thoughtful in comparing different sources of advice before deciding on a mental health strategy (M = 4.27, SD = 0.925). Students are slightly more likely to participate in these programs compared to other formal mental health resources (M = 1.44, SD = 0.469). Some students turn to online communities for support and guidance in managing their mental health issues (M = 1.63, SD = 0.483). Conclusion: This investigation underscores numerous critical developments in the mental health awareness and help-seeking behaviors of students in high schools. Students exhibited a deliberate approach to evaluating mental health resources and a strong awareness of bipolar disorder.
