Psychological predictors of vagrancy and home leave from socially and economically prosperous families in adolescents are analyzed in the article. The purpose of present article is to show that it is possible to predict the occurrence of runaways and vagrancy in adolescents in the absence of schizophrenia and other clinical diagnoses. Presented research data on the multidimensional relationship of personality accentuations and deviations in the styles of family education as psychological predictors of vagrancy in adolescents presented. 72 adolescents aged 12-16 and their 78 parents were examined according to the typology of character accentuations by K. Leonhard (the Kleist-Leonhard classification system) and the methodology “Analysis of parenting styles” by E.G. Eidemiller and V. Yustitskis, a regression analysis and assessment of the reliability of trends by the G-criterion of signs were carried out. Multidimensional links between various combinations of hypertimacy, cyclotimity, exaltation, emotionality, excitability of vagrant teenagers and the characteristics of their family relationships in the form of infantilizing an adult teenager in the parent's mind, attributing their own negative qualities within the framework of the projection mechanism are shown. Based on the data obtained, it has been concluded that psychological predictors that allow anticipating wagon bondage as a behavior deviation with a rather high reliability are not individual accentuated personality traits, but an emergent system of interrelated initial characteristics of a teenager’s personality and family relationships. It has been reliably established that the presence of none of the accentuations of the personality independently, outside the context of family education, is not a specific predictor for vagrancy and does not make it possible to predict its occurrence. The identified psychological predictors of vagrancy in adolescents are highlighted for targeted corrective and preventive programs for adolescents and their parents in order to prevent vagrancy in the early stages of the teenage crisis.

This study aims to analyze and explain the influence of Attractions, Activities, Amenities, and Accessibility (4A) on tourist satisfaction at Taman Nusa Bali which is experiencing unfavorable conditions including a decrease in the level of tourist visits every year, besides that there are several conditions of tourism components that need to be improved. The sample used in the study was 100 respondents. The research data was processed by quantitative statistical analysis using multiple regression analysis to determine the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable. The results of the regression analysis show that an increase in variable 4A will increase tourist satisfaction. The results of the multiple regression analysis test show a significant F value, the adjusted R2 square coefficient value of 0.604 indicates that all 4A variables have a significant effect on tourist satisfaction together with a close relationship of 60.4%. This shows that to increase tourist satisfaction it is necessary to increase all tourism components in order to increase tourist satisfaction in the next period.

The purpose of this chapter is to review research on the role of religion in moral development within the family. We first present a model of the processes involved. Parent or family religiosity is the most distal predictor and affects moral development through its influence on parenting as well as child or adolescent religiosity. Additionally, parenting affects moral development directly, but also through its influence on child or adolescent religiosity. In other words, parent or family religiosity dynamically interconnects with parenting styles and practices, and with family relationships, and these in turn influence moral development directly as well as through child or adolescent religiosity. We also discuss how these processes might vary across faith traditions and cultures, and point to directions for future research.

Abstract Background The etiology of reflux esophagitis (RE) is multi-factorial. This study analyzed the relationship of depression, anxiety, lifestyle and eating habits with RE and its severity and further explored the impact of anxiety and depression on patients’ symptoms and quality of life. Methods From September 2016 to February 2018, a total of 689 subjects at Xuanwu Hospital Capital Medical University participated in this survey. They were divided into the RE group (patients diagnosed with RE on gastroscopy, n = 361) and the control group (healthy individuals without heartburn, regurgitation and other gastrointestinal symptoms, n = 328). The survey included general demographic information, lifestyle habits, eating habits, comorbidities, current medications, the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) questionnaire (GerdQ), the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 depression scale and the General Anxiety Disorder-7 anxiety scale. Results The mean age and sex ratio of the two groups were similar. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified the following factors as related to the onset of RE (p < 0.05): low education level; drinking strong tea; preferences for sweets, noodles and acidic foods; sleeping on a low pillow; overeating; a short interval between dinner and sleep; anxiety; depression; constipation; history of hypertension; and use of oral calcium channel blockers. Ordinal logistic regression analysis revealed a positive correlation between sleeping on a low pillow and RE severity (p = 0.025). Depression had a positive correlation with the severity of symptoms (rs = 0.375, p < 0.001) and patients’ quality of life (rs = 0.306, p < 0.001), whereas anxiety showed no such association. Conclusions Many lifestyle factors and eating habits were correlated with the onset of RE. Notably, sleeping on a low pillow was positively correlated with RE severity, and depression was positively related to the severity of symptoms and patients’ quality of life.
