Construction and Development of Buddhist Rational Thinking Model Accorded to Buddhist Approach to Decrease Thai Youths’ Problem of Sexual and Narcotic Risk Behaviours

Rerngchai Muenchana

Abstract


The risk behaviours can occur through one’s maladjustment or unability which has a bad effect on oneself and others even living things everywhere all the time. Especially the human beings may have risk behaviours more than other living things.  The research study in this matter is found that the adjustment of mental behaviours or the mental way is better than that of physical behaviours because the mind is a source bringing about bodily behaviours.  Whenever one can adjust his mental behaviours, surely one can adjust his physical behaviours.  As seen, Thai Youths at the age of 17-18 have sexual and narcotic risk behaviours more than other age.

            The factors which give rise to the result of risk are to sexual misconduct and narcotic addiction.  The concept or the way of thinking which can be used to decrease or adjust the risk behavious must trace the cause and factor, and analyze components very carefully by depending on the way of Four Noble Truths, namely problem solving in seeing through values and punishment even the way of thinking about real and false values.

Keywords:  thinking Yonisomanasikara and model.
