|
To explore how peer support activities influence both peer supporters and pupils who used the peer support.
|
Type of Peer Support

|
Samples
|
Samples were 40 peer supporters from a high school
|
Method
|
By using the questionnaire survey, 40 peer supporters were questioned about peer support training and activities.
(The study did not employ any statistical method).
|
Findings
|
The study found that in the peer counselling activities, users most often talked to peer supporters about “relationship with opposite sex”, then followed by “peer relationship” and “the career & study”. Also the study showed that when peer supporters were asked to inform the users’ gender and frequency of use in upper secondary school, more than half (24 out of 40) peer supporters refused to give information. Peer supporters motioned reasons as follows, “I can not tell specific person’s name”, “I do not want to tell”, “I am afraid it will discover who is user”, “I forgot it” and so on. Probably the peer supporters might have a strong sense of responsibly in terms of the clinical viewpoint, and they want to keep users’ information confidential.
