The Relationship

The article presents results of a study on the relationship between the level of formation of psychological boundaries and the development of assertiveness in primary school children. The authors review the main Russian and foreign theoretical concepts of assertive behavior and identify the key aspects of the phenomenon of psychological boundaries in modern psychology. The study involved 165 schoolchildren of 3rd and 4th classes. The following research techniques were applied: N.Brown’s Personal Boundaries technique, V.Sheinov’s Test of Assertiveness, and the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument. The study revealed the correlation between psychological boundaries and patterns of behavior in a conflict situation as well as with assertiveness skills in schoolchildren. The results of the study suggest that the development of assertiveness will have a positive impact on the development of autonomy and the formation of healthy psychological boundaries in primary school children, increase their self-confidence and contribute to the development of the ability to cope with difficult life situations, including conflicts.

The Relationship

This paper explores the relationship between family environment and behaviour of primary school children living in three family contexts. It uses data from studies including children of married heterosexual couples, cohabiting heterosexual couples and homosexual couples, and examines the extent to which these children differ with regard to scholastic achievement and aspects of social development. It shows that in the majority of cases, the most successful are children of married couples, followed by children of cohabiting couples and finally by children of homosexual couples.

Abstract.Using an example of composite tasks and the teaching techniquebehind them, the authors describe how primary school students learn to use modelling as part of their knowledge gaining process in education. The use of modelling during math classes is one of the pre-conditions for successful learning with primary school children as with the help of modelling children can better imagine what the task implies and better understand the relationship between different values, which enhances their awareness when deciding on what operation to apply, and so on.The article describes different models and submodels used by teachers for taskmodelling. It is noted that when learning how to solve composite tasks, children learn to reflect and acquire the ability to act inside their minds and analyze their thinking.Keywords: Knowledge gaining, mathematics teaching, modelling, compositetask.

The People

Recycling is one of the best ways to have a positive impact on the world in which we live in. In this modern hectic world of ours, people are indulging in activities which harm the environment. It is vital to educate our future generation in the preservation of our pleasant environment by not only polluting but also spreading crucial diseases. The purpose of this research is to understand the recycling practices and perceptions among rural primary school children. The sample for this study included Primary Three to Primary Six (N=16, M=11.31 years) school children with different ages and ethnic groups. The research was carried out in SJK Chung Hua Asajaya, Samarahan, Sarawak. This study used both qualitative and quantitative methods to collect the data. Face-to-face interviews guided by questionnaires as a tool determine the habits and practices on recycling activity. Findings of this study indicated that majority of the school children have good habits of recycling in both school and at home. Their perceptions indicated that they were aware on the importance of recycling in preserving the environment. This study would benefit the people in rural areas to be aware on the importance of recycling and how they can practice and improve their habits in recycling. School plays an important role in cultivating this practice. Recycling will help the town council and related institutions to giveindividuals a better quality of living.

The Relationship

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between Approximate Number System (ANS), a cognitive system which represents and estimates the cardinality of a set, and mathematics competency of primary school children. Many findings on ANS and its relations with mathematics competency showed inconsistency. This research is the first of its kind in Indonesia. 318 fourth and fifth-grade primary school students were instructed to perform non-symbolic (dots) comparison task to measure their Weber fraction (w), accuracy (percentage correct), and response time (ms) which are the measurement for ANS acuity. Mathematics competencies of the students were taken from school’s report card and the data were standardized for each school separately. Correlation and regression linear analysis were conducted to find the relationship between ANS acuity and mathematics’ competency. Analysis showed there was a weak but significant (p < 0.05) correlation between two measurements of ANS acuity, namely the Weber fraction and accuracy, with mathematics competency, but not response time (p > 0.05). Further analysis with linear regression showed there was no relationship between the two variables and mathematics score, which disproves this correlation. This study shows that there is no relationship between children’s ANS acuity and mathematics competency. Intrinsic factors such as children’s attention, engagement, and motivation, also methodological aspect needed further consideration. Future studies are needed to investigate the methodological aspect related to the measurement of ANS and mathematics’ competency as there is no ‘gold standard’ yet to measure ANS.

The Relationship

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the fundamental movement skills (FMS) of primary school children and aspects of their home environment. Four-hundred-and-eighty-four primary school children were recruited to the study, consisting of 255 boys and 229 girls, aged between 9 and 11 years. Participants were assessed on eight different FMS and placed into different ability profiles according to the similarity of their FMS proficiencies. Four-hundred-and-eighty-four parent questionnaires were completed and matched to the profile membership of the participants. For boys, positive relationships were found between their FMS ability and the variables of parent–child interaction in video gaming, parental beliefs concerning the importance of social development, motor development and children’s participation in physical activity, parental awareness of their own child’s extracurricular participation in community sports clubs and physical activity preferences. For girls, positive relationships with FMS proficiency were found for parental beliefs concerning the importance of participation in physical activity for social function and the importance of participation in physical activity for learning rules. In the case of girls only, several family characteristics were also significantly related to FMS proficiency. These were the following: the involvement of members of the extended family in their before and after-school care provision; their parents’ employment status; and their mother’s physical activity participation. In conclusion, parental beliefs and behaviours have the potential to influence children’s FMS performance and their impact needs to be considered in any interventions to improve the FMS of children of primary school age.
