The '''buddy system''' is a procedure in which two individuals, the "buddies", operate together as a single unit so that they are able to monitor and help each other.<ref>{{cite web|title=What is the buddy system? |url=http://www.becomeascout.org/faq.aspx |work=FAQs |publisher=Boy Scouts of America |accessdate=9 June 2011 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110905063021/http://www.becomeascout.org/faq.aspx |archivedate=5 September 2011 }}</ref> |

The system is a safety procedure that improves the divers' chances of avoiding or surviving accidents in or [[underwater]]. A pair of divers is the best combination in buddy diving: with threesomes, one of the divers can easily lose the attention of the other two. Groups with more than three divers are not using the buddy system. The system is likely to be effective in mitigating out-of-air emergencies, non-diving medical emergencies and entrapment in [[rope]]s or [[net]]s. When used with the [[buddy check]] it can help avoid equipment omission, misuse and failure. |
|||
As per [[Merriam-Webster]], the first known use of the phrase "buddy system" goes back to 1942. Webster goes on to define the buddy system as "an arrangement in which two individuals are paired (as for mutual safety in a hazardous situation).”<ref>{{Cite web | url=http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/buddy%20system |title = Definition of BUDDY SYSTEM}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web | url=http://www.ieci.org/newsroom-and-insights/working-in-pairs-the-buddy-system | title=Independent Electrical Contractors | access-date=26 September 2015 | archive-date=27 July 2020 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200727222025/https://www.ieci.org/newsroom-and-insights/working-in-pairs-the-buddy-system | url-status=dead }}</ref> |
|||
==Advantages== |
|||
With buddy diving, each of the divers is presumed to have a responsibility to the other. The "buddies" are expected to monitor each other, to stay close enough together to be able to help in an emergency, to behave safely and to follow the plan agreed by the pair before the dive. When the system fails, it is generally because one of the divers does not fulfil his or her responsibilities as a buddy. |
|||
In adventurous or dangerous activities, where buddies are often required, the main benefit of the system is improved [[safety]]; each may be able to prevent the other from becoming a casualty or rescue the other in a crisis. |
|||
When this system is used as part of training or the induction of newcomers to an organization, the less experienced buddy learns more quickly from close and frequent contact with the experienced buddy than when operating alone. |
|||
==Alternatives== |
|||
The two alternatives, '''solo diving''' and '''diving as an individual in a large group''', have disadvantages when compared to the buddy system especially for the novice. |
|||
*Although '''solo diving''' is used by some divers in [[technical diving]], it is only effective if the diver is totally self-sufficient. This is not possible in some cases, such as entrapment in ropes and nets and during non-diving medical emergencies. |
|||
*In '''group diving''', especially in large groups, poor visibility or currents, weak individual divers can easily become detached from the group and lose the protection of any experienced divers in the group. |

The buddy system is used in the [[United States Armed Forces]], and referred to by various names in each branch ("[[Wingman|Wingmen]]" in the Air Force, "Battle Buddies" in the Army, "Shipmates" in the Navy), as well as the [[Boy Scouts of America]] and the [[Girl Scouts of the USA]].<ref name="scouts">{{cite web|url=http://meritbadge.org/wiki/index.php/Buddy_System|title=Buddy System in Swimming, Boating, Rappelling, and other activities.|accessdate=10 October 2011|archive-date=30 October 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191030235302/http://meritbadge.org/wiki/index.php/Buddy_system|url-status=dead}}</ref> |

*A similar system of pairs is used during [[firefighter|firefighting]], where it is called the [[two-in, two-out]] principle. |

It is also used by religious organizations like the LDS Church. Members on the mission form a [[Missionary (LDS Church)#Companionships|companionship]] constituted by two or sometimes more missionaries, which are not allowed to be alone for two years: "Stay Together. Never be alone. You must stay with your companion at all times."<ref name="ldshandbook">{{cite web | url=https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/missionary-handbook/missionary-conduct?lang=eng | title=LDS Missionary Handbook}}</ref> |

The buddy system is used in new employee induction for assisting with the formalities in an organization. The period could be from a month to two months. The buddy helps in acclimatizing the new employee to the culture and day-to-day aspects of working, in a shorter period. The buddy helps the new employee to become knowledgeable about department practices and organizational culture in a shorter period. The purpose of assigning new employees with a buddy is to help welcome employees and reaffirms their decision to join the organization. It provides new employees with a reliable, motivated, single point of contact for their basic questions regarding their work experience. The buddy system is an effective method to provide support, monitor stress, and reinforce safety procedures.<ref>[https://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/pdf/buddy-system.pdf NIOSH Fact Sheet: The Buddy System] </ref> |
|||
The buddy system is also informally used by [[elementary school|school-aged]] children, especially on [[field trip]]s. Assigning each student a buddy provides an extra measure of safety and removes some of the burdens of keeping an eye on a large number of children in an unfamiliar environment from the supervising adults. |
|||
The buddy system encourages open and effective dialogue among peers and tends to break down social barriers with their classmates. It helps create a collaborative learning environment in which peers feel less hesitant to raise questions. This enables students to develop social networks and cross-cultural experiences. It provides effective support for the students who are at risk and lowers the attrition rate at the higher education level. |

=== Benefits of a buddy system === |

A buddy system in a school is where a child gets paired with another child, usually one that is older and of higher abilities. A buddy system helps to promote friendship, better support of coursework, behavioral and social needs, and can foster a greater sense of belonging and a more inclusive school community.<ref name=Hughes2008>Hughes, C., & Carter E.W. (2008). ''Peer Buddy Programs for Successful Secondary School Inclusion.'' Paul H. Brookes Publishing Company.</ref> Students create friendships that enable both older and younger "buddies" to bond more closely with their school, increasing the likelihood of more positive school behavior and positive response towards learning for all students.<ref name=Hughes2008/> The buddy system helps students starting at a new school have a welcoming experience from the very beginning. The older children learn to take on responsibility, while the younger children know that they have a fellow student they can confidently turn to for support.<ref name=Anderson2015>Anderson, M.

|||
The buddy system positively affects the culture of the school and it greatly affects the troubled student as well as the older buddy. The students learn and share from their peers and learn collaboratively. The students actively participate with each other and enjoy the informal setting and feel comfortable discussing with peers rather than a teacher. The opportunity for active participation, clearing doubts and discussions help students to continue with studies or activities with joy and creates a depth in the subject matter.{{Citation needed|date=August 2016}} The buddy system helps to increase self-confidence for all involved in the system and in the process helps build trust and co-operation within individuals. It benefits the buddies, buddy learner, school/university and the parents as well. The buddies involved also learn leadership skills and in turn can take up the role of buddy leader.<ref name=Hughes2008/> |

An example of a successful peer buddy system was in Nashville, Tennessee's McGavock High School. Teachers were concerned with having a more inclusive environment for special education students. Not only were the specialized students excluded academically but there was social exclusion as well. This adversely affects specialized students when there is a need for them to later assimilate when out of high school.<ref name=Hughes2008/> Students with disabilities were eating with their buddies and their friends, which resulted in the expansion of their circle of friendship and thus allowed for the special needs students to feel more normal and included.

There are more examples of buddy systems for developmentally challenged students than there are of students with normal development but with behavioral or academic needs.<ref name=Fo1974/> If a system can be implemented that can help autistic or behaviorally challenged children or children with intellectual disabilities, than similar buddy systems can be incorporated into mainstream classrooms to help aid students that have a hard time learning but who may not qualify for the special needs programs. Students with disabilities report feeling more included, able to start friendships and conversations,<ref name=Carter2001/> and these same benefits can be transferred over to students that have social problems but are not able to be in special needs programs. Similarly, a student who is struggling academically can be paired with someone more adept with certain subjects. |

Peer buddy groups can benefit many people. More research is needed to understand the possible impact of buddy systems for the general student population.

The advantage of this system is that it does not single out the autistic student, especially if they are not comfortable with that, and instead includes everyone.

The buddy system is a procedure in which two individuals, the "buddies", operate together as a single unit so that they are able to monitor and help each other.[1] As per Merriam-Webster, the first known use of the phrase "buddy system" goes back to 1942. Webster goes on to define the buddy system as "an arrangement in which two individuals are paired (as for mutual safety in a hazardous situation).”[2][3]
Advantages
[edit]In adventurous or dangerous activities, where buddies are often required, the main benefit of the system is improved safety; each may be able to prevent the other from becoming a casualty or rescue the other in a crisis.
When this system is used as part of training or the induction of newcomers to an organization, the less experienced buddy learns more quickly from close and frequent contact with the experienced buddy than when operating alone.
Organizations
[edit]The buddy system is used in the United States Armed Forces, and referred to by various names in each branch ("Wingmen" in the Air Force, "Battle Buddies" in the Army, "Shipmates" in the Navy), as well as the Boy Scouts of America and the Girl Scouts of the USA.[4]
It is also used by religious organizations like the LDS Church. Members on the mission form a companionship constituted by two or sometimes more missionaries, which are not allowed to be alone for two years: "Stay Together. Never be alone. You must stay with your companion at all times."[5]
The buddy system is used in new employee induction for assisting with the formalities in an organization. The period could be from a month to two months. The buddy helps in acclimatizing the new employee to the culture and day-to-day aspects of working, in a shorter period.
