Peer Nominations

Children’s peer relationships are frequently assessed with peer nominations. An important methodological issue is whether to collect unlimited or limited nominations. Some researchers have argued that the psychometric differences between both methods are negligible, while others have claimed that one is superior over the other. The current study compared both methods directly in a counterbalanced design among 112 8–12-year-old elementary school children. Overall, both methods revealed comparable results, although some significant and noteworthy differences were found. The use of unlimited nominations was recommended for questions related to social status (preference, popularity). Some method differences varied by gender. Implications for future peer relations research were discussed.

Gender Factor

Differences in children's acceptance of occupational roles that are traditionally sex-typed by society were explored for a sample of 270 elementary school children, 135 boys and 135 girls. The degree of sex-typing was high among all subjects. Children viewed occupations as the role of one sex or the other, according to traditional sex-typed views.

Time Interaction

SUMMARYSpace-time interaction analysis was applied to data from 101 elementary school children who contracted variola minor during an epidemic in Bragança Paulista County, Brazil. One school had two and the other three shifts of students occupying the same classrooms each day. There was no evidence found for excessive numbers of cases to occur among unvaccinated students occupying the same desks or seated near the desks occupied by cases occurring during another shift. Only three cases occurred among the 31 unvaccinated students occupying desks of students with variola from other shifts. Only one of these three subsequent cases occurred at a time interval suggestive of transmission. For the three models tested there was no evidence of space-time interaction between time of onset of the disease and location of desk for pairs of students from different shifts.

Tongue Thrust

This study investigated the assumption that oral myofunctional services might facilitate remediation of articulation disorders. Subjects were ten 6-year-old elementary school children who exhibited both tongue-thrust behavior and articulation errors. All subjects had equal service time for a 14-week period, half receiving articulation services only and the other half receiving oral myofunctional services prior to and in conjunction with articulation services. Results showed that children in both programs made essentially equal progress in correcting placement of tongue-tip-sounds, remediating /s/ and /z/ misarticulation, and remediating general articulation errors. Only children who received oral myofunctional services remediated tongue-thrust behaviors.

HEMOGLOBIN LEVELS AND BODY MASS INDEX WITH THE SOIL-TRANSMITTED HELMINTH INFECTIONS AMONG  ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDREN Background: Children in tropical countries have more helminth infections which can cause blood loss through the gastrointestinal tract. Helminth infections and micronutrient deficiencies are closely related this can result in a decrease in endurance and cause disruption of child development.Purpose: This study aims to determine the effect of helminthiasis on hemoglobin levels and body mass index of elementary school children at Silahisabungan District, Dairi Regency, North Sumatra Province.Methods: This research was an observational analytic cross sectional approach. Subject study as many as 116 children. The study was carried out by examining feces, hemoglobin and counting body mass index the subjects. Statistical analysis used compare means with 95% CI (α = 0,05).Results: In this study, showed that children infected with worms have significant effect on levels of hemoglobin (p < 0.05). The other result there is associated between worm infection with body mass index (p < 0.05).Suggestion: The recommended of this study, important to give regular worm medicine and examination.Latar Belakang: Anak-anak di negara tropis lebih banyak mengalami infeksi kecacingan yang dapat menyebabkan kehilangan darah melalui saluran cerna. Secara kumulatif infeksi cacinganan dapat menimbulkan kekurangan gizi dan kehilangan darah yang berakibat menurunnya daya tahan tubuh dan menimbulkan gangguan tumbuh kembang anak.Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh kejadian kecacingan terhadap kadar Hb dan indeks masa tubuh anak Sekolah Dasar Kecamatan Silahisabungan Kabupaten Dairi Provinsi Sumatera Utara.Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan studi observasional dengan rancangan cross sectional. Tahapan penelitian dilakukan dengan pemeriksaan fases siswa untuk mendapatkan anak yang kecacingan dan yang tidak kecacingan. Selanjutnya membandingkan  indeks massa tubuh dan kadar  hemoglobin pada anak sekolah dasar yang positif kecacingan dan anak yang negatif kecacingan. Besar sampel pada penelitian  ini sebanyak 116 siswa. Analisa statistik yang digunakan uji beda mean dengan 95% CI (α=0,05).Hasil: Diperoleh ada perbedaan rata-rata indeks massa tubuh anak yang kecacingan dan yang tidak kecacingan dengan nilai p<0,05. Ada perbedaan rata-rata kadar Hb pada anak yang kecacingan dan tidak kecacingan dengan nilai p<0.05.Saran: Perlu adanya pemberian obat cacing yang teratur serta pemeriksaan kecacingan yang rutin pada siswa.

The study deals with children's use of the connective and to end a story. One hundred and ninety-one children (aged 7;0 to 11;0) who were native speakers of French told two-character comic strip stories with no text to a same-age peer. In the consecutive-display condition, the comic strip was in booklet format with one frame per page, whereas in the simultaneous-display condition, all frames were on the same page. In the arbitrary-sequence condition, the events in each comic strip, although presented as a sequence, could have occurred in any order, whereas in the ordered-sequence condition, the order of the events could not be changed. In the maintained-topic condition, the materials were designed to induce a thematic subject right after the first frame (by the repeated presence of the same character in every picture, up to and including the last one), whereas in the changed-topic condition, the other character appeared alone in the last frame.The analysis focused on cases where the children began the narration of the last frame using and to change the text pattern established so far. The results showed that and was often used in this way (35·2% of the productions), especially in the experimental conditions that facilitated event interconnection (simultaneous display, ordered sequence, maintained topic). The ordered-sequence condition showed that the nine-year-olds in simultaneous display employed and in co-occurrence with another connective, whereas the eleven-year-olds mainly used and more specifically: when the topic changed. The discussion deals with the specialization during development of the use of and within a speaker's discourse.
