TY - JOUR PY - 1998// TI - Expressed concerns of Yemeni adolescents JO - Adolescence A1 - Alzubaidi, A. A1 - Upton, G. A1 - Baluch, B. SP - 193 EP - 207 VL - 33 IS - 129 N2 - This study examined the concerns of adolescents in the Republic of Yemen. A short version of the Mooney Problem Check List was administered to 150 13- to 17-year-old males and females. Results indicated that the major concerns and problems reported by Yemeni adolescents were related to their vocational and educational future, recreational activities, religious matters, and school curriculum and teaching methods. Problems related to social life, family, and health and physical issues were less prominent. Results also showed that though there were similarities in the number of concerns expressed by males and females, males reported more difficulties with their vocational and educational future, marriage and sexual matters, and finances and employment, while females reported more problems with recreational activities, personal relationships, and health.
