A modification of the Paired-Stimuli Parent Program (Florance, 1977) was adapted for the treatment of articulatory errors of visually handicapped children. Blind high school students served as clinical aides. A discussion of treatment methodology, and the results of administrating the program to 32 children, including a two-year follow-up evaluation to measure permanence of behavior change, is presented.

The Relationship

Abstract Introduction Although napping is very common and related to the outcome of individual development, the relationship between napping and health is not the same in different social and cultural contexts. In China, napping is considered as a healthy lifestyle and is often associated with better adolescent development outcomes. As a special group of teenagers (the academic level does not meet the requirements of ordinary high school), vocational high school students have a higher incidence of behavioral problems than ordinary high school students. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore the characteristics of napping and its relationship with behavioral problems in vocational high school students. Methods The napping questionnaire, Youth Self Report (YSR), general information questionnaire and other tools for covariates were used to measure 2505 high school students (62.04% boys, 37.96% girls, 16.71±0.02 years), recruited by convenient sampling. The relationship between nappingand behavioral problems was analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results 72.58% of the participants reported taking a midday nap at least three days per week during the past month, and 55.79% of our sample reported naps more than 30 minutes. Multiple regression analysis showed that nap frequency was negatively associated with high school students’ behavior problems after controlling for general characteristics and other important covariates. Compared with high school students who did not nap or napped less than 1 time/week, high school students who napped 1–2 times/week or 3–4 times/week had lower level of both internalizing behavior problems and externalizing behavior problems. There was no statistically significant association between nap duration and behavior problems. Conclusion This study finds that when napping is allowed, moderate frequency of napping is associated with lower level of internalizing and externalizing behavioral problems in vocational high school students, while nap duration is not significantly associated with behavioral problems. Further research is needed to explore the mechanism of the relationship between napping and behavior problems. Support (if any):

Experimental Group

This study aims to explore vocational high school students’ attitudes toward integrating blended learning into situational writing, and the learning effectiveness of that integration. A total of 84 vocational high students were divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group received writing instruction through an online platform, whereas the control group received writing instruction in traditional classrooms. Attitude toward writing and writing performance were assessed before and after the experiment. Also, learning satisfaction survey was conducted afterwards. The findings of this study reveal that results of the post-test total scores and behavior are significantly higher than the pre-test total scores and behavior results for both the experimental and control groups. Particularly, organization, language usage, and the overall performance in the students’ writings are significantly improved. Scores for affection and behavior and total scores for attitude toward writing are significantly higher for the experimental group than for the control group. Both groups show significant satisfaction with the instructional method, interactivity, and total grades.

Indonesia belum mempunyai kebijakan penyuluhan pencegahan kecelakaan sepeda motor yang efektif. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menilai efektivitas penggunaan visual compact disk (VCD) dan leaflet terhadap peningkatan pengetahuan, sikap dan perilaku siswa SLTA dalam pencegahan kecelakaan sepeda motor di Kota Bekasi pada tahun 2010. Desain penelitian yang digunakan quasi experiment dengan rancangan equivalent pretest and post-test with control group, dengan intervensi pemutaran VCD dan pemberian leaflet. Sampel dihitung berdasarkan uji 2 proporsi, diperoleh sampel minimal 211 untuk yang di intervensi dan 211 untuk kontrol. Mereka diambil dari siswa SLTA kelas I dan kelas II yang sering mengendarai sepeda motor. Evaluasi hasil intervensi dilakukan setelah tiga bulan. Alat pengumpul data adalah kuesioner yang telah diuji coba. Analisis data menggunakan uji Kolmogorov-Smirnov, uji-t berpasangan dan uji-t independen. Hasil penelitian menunjukan uji-t berpasangan pada kelompok yang di intervensi meningkatkan rerata skor pengetahuan, sikap, dan perilaku siswa SLTA sebelum dibandingkan sesudah pemutaran VCD dan pemberian leaflet bermakna (nilai p < 0,05), tetapi pada kelompok kontrol hanya terjadi peningkatan rerata skor perilaku sebelum dibandingkan sesudah adanya perlakukan. Sedangkan, hasil uji-t independen menunjukan hanya pada rerata skor variabel pengetahuan terdapat perbedaan peningkatan skor antara kelompok intervensi dan kelompok kontrol yang bermakna (nilai p < 0,05). Kesimpulannya, penyuluhan menggunakan VCD dan leaflet dapat meningkatkan pengetahuan siswa SLTA dalam pencegahan kecelakaan sepeda motor.Indonesia does not have a policy of promotion motorcycle accident prevention. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the Visual Compact Disks and leaflets to increase in knowledge, attitudes and behavior of the motorcycle accident prevention on high school students in Bekasi City. The method used a non-randomized quasi experimental pretest and post-test control group design. Samples are high school students as a intervention group and vocational high school students as a control group in Bekasi in 2010. Three months after the intervention, conducted an evaluation to assess the increasing of knowledge, attitudes and behavior of a motorcycle accident prevention. Data collection was a questionnaire that was tested. Analysis of the data using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, paired t-test and independent t-test. The result of the study shows that the paired t-test in the intervention group mean scores improve knowledge, attitudes and behavior of high school students before than after playback of VCDs and leaflets giving significant (p value < 0.05), but in the control group only increased the mean behavior scores before than after the introduction of treatment. While the results of the independent t-test showed only the mean score difference variable increase in knowledge scores between the groups in the intervention and control groups were significant (p value < 0.05). To conclude, extension using VCD and leaflets can improve high school students’ knowledge in the prevention of a motorbike accident.

The objective of this study was to determine the psychosocial factors which differentiate suicidal adolescents from their nonsuicidal peers. By means of a specially designed questionnaire, distributed to a representative sample of 4686 Slovene high school students of both sexes aged 14-19 years, we assessed their general characteristics, suicidal ideation and behavior, family circumstances, self-appraisal of the problems and ways of solving them, engagement in sport, and exposure to suicide in their close circle. Numerous important differences were established between suicidal and nonsuicidal adolescents. The data gathered will help further research into suicidal behavior in adolescents.
