The present study sought to develop a scale to measure the values adoption of primary school children and explore whether emotional intelligence of primary school children is associated with values which are taught through curricular activities. First, the Value Adoption Scale (VAS) was developed in Study 1 by conducting exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and correlation was examined in Study 2. Data were collected using the Ten Years Emotional Intelligence Scale (TYEIS) and the Value Scale consisting of eight items. Data were analyzed with Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis. Results of data analysis indicated that there was a moderate correlation between emotional intelligence and values, but regression analysis revealed that emotional intelligence had weak predictive power for values adoption. It was concluded that teaching values through curricular activities is not useful to foster emotional intelligence among primary school children. Results of the research are discussed and addressed along with the relevant literature.

abstractThe sampling technique used in this study is non-probability sampling technique that is purposive sampling. In this study used Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS) developed by Spanier (1976), Big Five Inventory (BFI) developed by John, O. P & Srivastava, S. (1999) and Emotional Intelligence Scale developed by Salovey & Mayer (1990). The validity of the measuring instrument was tested using the Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) technique with Lisrel 8.70 software and to test the research hypothesis using multiple regression analysis using SPSS 21 software. The results of the study using multiple regression analysis showed that all independent variables used had a significant effect on marital adjustment with a variant proportion of 16.4%, while the remaining 83.6% is influenced by other variables other than research. Meanwhile, the results of the analysis of each variable separately show that the personality type variables conscientiousness and openness to experience have a significantly to marital adjustment. While personality types extraversion, agreeableness, neuroticsm, emotional intelligence, gender, duration of marriage and income not significant effect on marital adjustment.AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh tipe kepribadian big five extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticsm, openness, kecerdasan emosional, jenis kelamin, usia perkawinan dan penghasilan terhadap penyesuaian perkawinan. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada 220 individu Betawi yang telah menikah dengan usia perkawinan 1-5 tahun. Teknik yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah teknik non-probability sampling yaitu purposive sampling. Penelitian ini menggunakan alat ukur Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS) dikembangkan oleh Spanier (1976), Big Five Inventory (BFI) dikembangkan oleh John, O. P & Srivastava, S.

Confirmatory Factor

Comprehensive feeding practices questionnaire (CFPQ) is an instrument specifically developed to evaluate parental feeding practices. It has been confirmed among children in America and applied to populations in France, Norway, and New Zealand. In order to extend the application of CFPQ, we conducted a factor structure validation of the translated version of CFPQ (CFPQ-M) using confirmatory factor analysis among mothers of primary school children (N= 397) in Malaysia. Several items were modified for cultural adaptation. Of 49 items, 39 items with loading factors>0.40 were retained in the final model. The confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the final model (twelve-factor model with 39 items and 2 error covariances) displayed the best fit for our sample (Chi-square = 1147;df= 634;P<0.05; CFI = 0.900; RMSEA = 0.045; SRMR = 0.0058). The instrument with some modifications was confirmed among mothers of school children in Malaysia. The present study extends the usability of the CFPQ and enables researchers and parents to better understand the relationships between parental feeding practices and related problems such as childhood obesity.

AbstractObjectivesThe mechanism by which the home food environment (HFE) influences childhood obesity is unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between HFE and childhood obesity as mediated by diet in primary-school children.DesignCross-sectional data collected from parents and primary-school children participating in the Obesity Prevention and Lifestyle Evaluation Project. Only children aged 9–11 years participated in the study. Matched parent/child data (n3323) were analysed. Exploratory factor analysis underlined components of twenty-one HFE items; these were linked to child diet (meeting guidelines for fruit, vegetable and non-core food intakes) and measured child BMI, in structural equation modelling, adjusting for confounders.SettingTwenty geographically bounded metropolitan and regional South Australian communities.SubjectsSchool children and their parents from primary schools in selected communities.ResultsIn the initial exploratory factor analysis, nineteen items remaining extracted eight factors with eigenvalues >1·0 (72·4 % of total variance). A five-factor structure incorporating ten items described HFE. After adjusting for age, gender, socio-economic status and physical activity all associations in the model were significant (P<0·05), explaining 9·3 % and 4·5 % of the variance in child diet and BMI, respectively. A more positive HFE was directly and indirectly associated with a lower BMI in children through child diet.ConclusionsThe robust statistical methodology used in the present study provides support for a model of direct and indirect dynamics between the HFE and childhood obesity. The model can be tested in future longitudinal and intervention studies to identify the most effective components of the HFE to target in childhood obesity prevention efforts.

The Brain

The discussion of psychologists and physiologists on the work of the brain as the center for the formation of emotions and feelings, the center of memory and planning of future actions has been highlighted. Taking into account the main provisions of neuroscientists’ works, the gender characteristics of the emotional reactions of boys and girls have been revealed in accordance with differences in the structure and work of their brains. This gave the grounds for the conclusion that in order to form the correct behavior of the child in society, it is necessary to enhance his interaction experience in it, develop strong-willed efforts and ensure the full development of a rational brain. of The vast majority of junior schoolchildren need to have their level of emotional intelligence to be corrected. The main source of intellectual, moral and aesthetic feelings as components of the emotional intelligence of preschool and primary school children is gaming and educational activities, during which all kinds of feelings that affect the children’s adaptation to the new living conditions are being developed. If a child does not reach a sufficient level of emotional development by the age of 10-11, which is distinguished by the greatest plasticity of the cerebral cortex and almost unlimited intellectual capabilities, then at the later age his life cannot be successful and comfortable due to numerous misunderstandings with himself and others, close and strangers.

SUMMARYWinter thermal sensations of secondary and primary school-children in Queensland are related to air temperature. Neutrality is estimated by regression analysis of over 6000 assessments and a lower comfort limit is suggested to include 80% of the children. Cold discomfort is seen as the main problem, and comparison is made to an earlier study in England.
