Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Governments, organizations, and schools around the world are committed to providing a safe and friendly learning environment for students. However, bullying, truancy, violence, discrimination, and addiction are still common in schools around the world due to students' maladaptive and deviant behaviors. While educators have focused on such issues over the past few decades, with the boom in Internet technology, the impact of adverse events in schools has expanded from offline to online, and this has become a globally important public health issue. In addition, adverse events continue to occur, even as educators work to intervene and prevent these events. Due to these issues, it is necessary to continue to explore the causes and effects of these maladaptive and deviant behaviors and the effectiveness of interventions over time. These findings will help governments, organizations, educators and communities worldwide to address and prevent the occurrence of maladaptive and deviant behaviors in schools. Therefore, our journal presents a Special Issue for this topic. Contributions are welcome. This Special Issue welcomes original research papers and review articles in, but not limited to, the following areas: 

• Common addictive behaviors on campus, counseling and prevention strategies
• Deviant behavior in schools, counseling and prevention strategies
• Unethical behavior on campus, counseling and prevention strategies
• Psychological health promotion and counseling strategies on campus
• Causes and consequences of maladaptive and deviant behavior
• The effect of leisure activities on the improvement of bad behavior
