Fighting, truancy and low academic achievement in youth subcultures
Open accessAbstract
Lifestyle, music preference, shared values and behaviours of young people can be understood to be components of youth subcultures. Little is known about the association between affiliation with non-mainstream subcultures and problem behaviour. The aim of this study was to assess the association between subculture affiliation and fighting, truancy and low academic achievement, and to determine whether lack of parental knowledge and parental bonding accounts for these associations. Our results showed that youth subculture affiliation is a strong risk factor regarding the above-mentioned behaviours and that part of this risk is accounted for by a lack of protective factors.

School refusal is sometimes associated with parental knowledge of a child's absenteeism, whereas truancy is often tied to lack of parental knowledge.

The Discussion links truancy in youth subcultures to a lack of parental knowledge. However, the Parental knowledge measures concern parents’ knowledge of adolescents’ activities and whereabouts, not specifically whether they know about an absence from school. The paper does not address school refusal or contrast it with truancy. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
