The problem in this study is how the implementation of the conception of Crime Prevention Through Social Development (CPTSD) by Bhabinkamtibmas in combating criminal acts of terrorism and why there are obstacles to the implementation of the conception of CPTSD by Bhabinkamtibmas in combating criminal acts of terrorism.  The research method specifically uses this type of qualitative research with a normative juridical approach to the problem and an empirical approach. The types of data used are primary data and secondary data. Primary data were obtained from interviews with resource persons and secondary data from literature studies.  The results of the study indicate that the CPTSD model policy by Bhabinkamtibmas in overcoming criminal acts of terrorism is carried out through preventive, preemptive, and repressive efforts. Preventive efforts are supervision of chemicals that can be processed into explosives. Preemptive efforts are holding tabligh akbar and re-instilling Pancasila values ​​in society. The repressive effort is the establishment of the Anti-Terror Task Force. The obstacle in implementing the CPTSD model policy by Bhabinkamtibmas in overcoming criminal acts of terrorism is that Bhabinkamtibmas still lacks resources both in terms of quantity of members and in the field of facilities and infrastructure which includes the number of vehicles and task tools used to carry out Anjau Glare and binluh to the community. The Binmas Pioneer program through the CPTSD by Bhabinkamtibmas has not yet reached the target, so it has not been maximal in raising public awareness and preventing crime.

National and provincial police crime figures indicate that crime has, to a certain extent, levelled off in the course of 2002. Murder continues to decline, as does vehicle theft. However, the trends for car hijacking are less positive. Of all the provinces, Western Cape, Northern Cape and Gauteng featured prominently in most of the crime categories. The volume of interpersonal violent crime remains a cause for concern, which suggests that government intervention should expand its focus on crime prevention through social development.

Abstract Life History Theory (LHT) predicts a monotonous relationship between affluence and the rate of innovations and strong correlations within a cluster of behavioral features. Although both predictions can be true in specific cases, they are incorrect in general. Therefore, the author's explanations may be right, but they do not prove LHT and cannot be generalized to other apparently similar processes.

Purpose What does it mean to be social? In addition, how is that different from behaving socially appropriately? The purpose of this clinical focus article is to tackle these two questions along with taking a deeper look into how communication challenges in childhood apraxia of speech impact social competencies for young children. Through the lens of early social development and social competency, this clinical focus article will explore how speech motor challenges can impact social development and what happens when young learners miss early opportunities to grow socially. While not the primary focus, the clinical focus article will touch upon lingering issues for individuals diagnosed with childhood apraxia of speech as they enter the school-aged years. Conclusion Finally, it will address some foundational aspects of intervention and offer ideas and suggestions for structuring therapy to address both speech and social goals.

Abstract Learning to listen and speak are well-established preludes for reading, writing, and succeeding in mainstream educational settings. Intangibles beyond the ubiquitous test scores that typically serve as markers for progress in children with hearing loss are embedded in descriptions of the educational and social development of four young women. All were diagnosed with severe-to-profound or profound hearing loss as toddlers, and all were fitted with hearing aids and given listening and spoken language therapy. Compiling stories across the life span provides insights into what we can be doing in the lives of young children with hearing loss.
