Nonspecific Effects

The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential differ substantially from other groups treating developmental problems in (1) the excessive nature of their poorly documented claims for cure and (2) the major demands placed on parents in unswervingly carrying out an unproven technique to the smallest detail. In most instances, improvement observed in patients undergoing this method of treatment can be accounted for on the basis of growth and development, the intensive practice of certain isolated skills, or the nonspecific effects of intensive stimulation. Physicians and therapists should acquaint themselves with the issues in the controversy and the available evidence. Based on past and current analyses, studies, and reports, we must conclude that patterning treatment offers no special merit, that the claims of its advocates are unproven, and that the demands on families are so great that in some cases there may be harm in its use.

Good Nutrition

Growth and development in children is greatly influenced by the intake of nutrients in food. During the period of growth and development, the provision of good nutrition is not always carried out perfectly. One of the influencing factors is the level of parental knowledge and children's preference on fast food. If feeding is always not in accordance with the needs of children, it will cause developmental problems in children. One of the efforts made to overcome these problems is a healthy eating program. This research was conducted with the aim to determine the results of nutrition fulfillment in early childhood through a healthy eating program. This research uses descriptive qualitative research methods. Research location in Al-Isyad Al-Islamiyyah Purwokerto Kindergarten. With research subjects include, teachers, Al-Irsyad Al-Islamiyyah Purwokerto Kindergarten students, parents, and school principals. Data obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of this study describe the implementation of the fulfillment of children's nutrition through a healthy eating program implemented at Al Irsyad Al Islamiyyah Purwokerto Kindergarten, this study also shows good menu variations in accordance with the nutritional needs of early childhood every day in healthy eating programs prepared by nutritionists, so as to improve nutritional status in children.

Scholarly Inquiry

Virginia Gordon was a teacher, scholar, practitioner, and leader who also served as a role model and mentor to others. Her insight and research informed the many innovative initiatives she pursued on behalf of the student advising experience. Gordon's scholarly and evidence-based approach set the stage for academic advising as a field of scholarly inquiry and helped shape the growth and direction of the profession. Virginia Gordon's work was other-directed. Her goal was always to support the growth and development of others. This qualitative study tried to capture Gordon as understood by the higher education professionals who knew her, worked with her, and/or studied with her. That she was other-directed supports our view regarding Virginia Gordon as a servant leader.

Replication Failure

Research has found disturbing long-term effects of poor parenting on children’s behavioral health including addiction, delinquency, depression/anxiety, and poorer health as adults. Poor parenting practices thus contribute substantially to the health crisis in America. However, skilled, nurturing parents, or caretakers can help youth avoid these developmental problems. A number of family and parenting evidence-based interventions (EBIs) that teach parenting skills are now available for dissemination. Unfortunately, replications of EBIs do not always produce the original positive results. Organizations that seek to use family EBIs to improve parenting and family skills need to avoid practices that create replication failure. We examine several possible factors that contribute to replication failure using examples from five replications of the EBI “Iowa Strengthening Families Program for ages 10–14.” We then share six strategies conducive to avoid replication failures including (1) choosing the right program and implementation strategy for the population, (2) administering the right “dosage,” (3) choosing and properly training implementers, (4) maintaining program integrity and adherence, (5) ensuring cultural sensitivity, and (6) ensuring accurate and complete reporting of evaluation results. These guidelines can advance prevention science to meet the demands of a growing public health agenda.

The Impact

This article surveys future trends impacting corporate governance research and practice. These trends, which will impact all countries, but to varying degrees, include a movement towards unifying the diverse theories, models and language deployed in corporate governance research so that we can have a sounder epistemological base from which to advance our knowledge. Also discussed are the impact of technology on corporate governance research; the move to more inclusive and interdisciplinary models; a greater emphasis on Asian models of corporate governance; the impact of soft law; continued emphasis on the role of corporate governance in achieving sustainable growth and development; corporate governance within the context of new forms of capitalism and new institutional frameworks; a greater focus on comparative law and transnational models; and finally, an increased demand for evidence- based outcomes.

Second Year

This study examines the growth and development of 37 preterm infants, 20 with respiratory distress syndrome and 17 with bronchopulmonary dysplasia. The groups were balanced by sex, parity, family configuration, and socioeconomic status and were studied at either 12 or 18 months after hospital discharge. Findings indicate that infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia are at greater risk for growth retardation in their second year than infants with respiratory distress syndrome. Furthermore, results from cognitive, sensorimotor, and language measures (the Bayley, Uzgiris-Hunt, and Receptive-Expressive Emergent Language scales) demonstrate that infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia perform significantly less well than infants with respiratory distress syndrome. The group performance of the infants with respiratory distress syndrome suggests that their developmental scores are comparable to those of average, healthy full-term infants of the same age. In contrast, the group of infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia performed in the low-average to delayed range. Moreover, regression analyses show that type of respiratory illness explains more of the variance in cognitive outcomes than such neonatal factors as birth weight or gestational age. Thus, this study demonstrates that infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia are at high risk for developmental problems in their second year, and that the contribution of bronchopulmonary dysplasia to explanations of differential cognitive outcomes cannot be reduced to between-group differences in perinatal status.
