Youth vaping is a concern and schools may use many approaches to discipline students caught vaping at school. This study identified the prevalence of school staff seeing vaping in schools and the measures used to discipline students. A state-wide sample of 7,938 staff from 255 middle and high schools reported whether they saw any students vaping at school in the last 30 days, whether they have caught any students vaping during class in the last semester, and what happened after catching a student vaping in class. Open-text responses were coded and themes were identified related to disciplinary approaches. 31.9% of staff reported seeing students vaping at school, and 11.9% of teachers reported catching a student vaping during class. Teachers described four categories of disciplinary approaches after catching students vaping in class: no consequences, punitive approaches, restorative approaches, and mixed approaches. Additional support is necessary to help schools address student vaping.
青少年吸电子烟令人担忧,学校可能会采取多种方法来惩戒在学校吸电子烟的学生。本研究旨在确定学校工作人员观察到的校内吸电子烟现象的普遍性,以及他们用来惩戒吸电子烟学生的措施。该研究对全州范围内 255 所中学和高中的 7938 名教职员工进行了抽样调查,询问他们在过去 30 天内是否看到过学生在学校吸电子烟,在上个学期是否有在课堂上抓到学生吸电子烟,以及在抓到学生在课堂上吸电子烟后发生了什么。对开放式文本的回复进行了编码,并确定了与纪律处分方法相关的主题。31.9%的员工报告说看到学生在学校吸电子烟,11.9%的教师报告说在课堂上抓到学生吸电子烟。教师在抓到学生在课堂上吸电子烟后描述了四种纪律处分方法:无后果、惩罚性方法、修复性方法和混合方法。需要额外的支持来帮助学校解决学生吸电子烟的问题。
