Drug Problems

The purpose of this research paper was to review recent drug use, misuse, and abuse incidents among elementary school children in order to emphasize the fact that the drug problem in society has spread rapidly in a downward fashion from adults to college and secondary school age students and to elementary school children. It also highlights the fact that elementary school children are constantly being exposed to the drug problem due to the use of drugs by people in their immediate environment and their subsequent carelessness. The research emphatically demonstrates that it is no longer feasible for responsible adults to deny the existence of drug problems on the elementary school level.

Light-eyed individuals generally perform better at self-paced activities while dark-eyed individuals perform better at reactive activities. In throwing a ball at a target there were no differences between light- and dark-eyed elementary school-age children. Boys hit the target more times than did girls, and older children in upper grades hit the target more often than did younger children in lower grades.

Socio-Economic Level and Dietary Patterns are one of the factors that influence stunting. The aim of the study was to determine the socioeconomic and dietary patterns with the incidence of stunting in elementary school children in Lapai Public Health Center, Padang.Methods: This type of research is observational analytic with case-control study program. The study period was June 2019 with a sample of 19 cases and 19 controls. Data collection using questionnaires and univariate analysis using descriptive statistics in the form of frequency and percentage distributions while bivariate with chi-square test α 0.05.Results: From the results of the case group more than half (63.2%) of respondents have high socioeconomic status, more than half (63.2%) of respondents have good dietary patterns, there is no relationship between socioeconomic status with the stunting incidents and there is a meaningful relationship between dietary patterns and stunting incidents. From analysis, the OR value was 14 times the risk of stunting in elementary school children in Lapai Public Health Center.Conclusions: Dietary patterns in school-age children have an important role in improving nutritional status. It is recommended for families to pay attention to children's dietary patterns, adjust their diet according to schedule and accompany children when eating and to the health center to provide counselling to families to play a role in providing care for the child's eating.

The population in this study were all students as many as 367 students, the sampling used was a Stratified random sampling technique, a sample of 192 respondents. Data analysis uses the Spearman Rank Rho statistical test. The results of the analysis of dietary variables with nutritional status were obtained ρ (0.003) <α (0.05), so H0 was rejected, meaning that there was a relationship between eating patterns and nutritional status of school-age children, with a value of r = 0.210 which showed a high positive correlation. The results of the analysis of nutritional status variables with cognitive abilities obtained results ρ = 0.00, <α = 0.05. meaning that there is a relationship between nutritional status and cognitive learning achievement in elementary school children. Normal nutritional status can be obtained by applying a positive diet so that the intake that enters the body in accordance with the needs of the body. Children who have normal nutritional status have good cognitive abilities. Parents are the most important support in optimizing children's growth and development

This study investigated the alternate forms reliability of four type-token ratios (TTRs) of oral language samples obtained from 52 elementary school children (9 through 12 years of age). The four TTRs included the basic type-token ratio, the corrected type-token ratio, the root type-token ratio, and the bilogarithmic type-token ratio. Language samples of 600 words were segmented into 50-word, 100-word, and 200-word samples. Within each TTR measure, there were no significant differences among the means for samples of the same size, but all means for a given sample size differed significantly from the means of all other sample sizes. Further, for samples of the same size the reliability coefficients calculated for each TTR measure were neither consistent nor significant. These findings indicate that under the conditions of the present study TTRs are not comparable when calculated for different sample sizes ranging from 50 to 600 words, and further, that they are not reliable measures of the language performance of individual elementary school children from regular classrooms for language samples of 50 to 200 words.

ABSTRAKMunculnya berbagai penyakit yang sering menyerang anak usia sekolah, umumnya berkaitan dengan pemahaman anak tentang apa itu hidup bersih dan sehat, serta penerapan perilaku hidup bersih dan sehatan (PHBS) dan pemahaman anak tentang apa itu hidup bersih dan sehat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat hubungan antara pengetahuan dan PHBS anak sekolah dasar terhadap kejadian sakit yang di alami di  masa pandemi Covid-19 ini. Pendekatan kuantitatif dengan rancangan studi potong lintang dilakukan dengan melibatkan 58 anak sekolah dasar yang berada di wilayah perkotaan dan pedesaan Kabupaten Banyumas. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan, sebagian besar siswa memiliki pengetahuan tentang gizi dan kesehatan yang masih rendah (62,1%), meski demikian, siswa yang menerapkan PHBS dengan baik sudah lebih banyak (63,8%). Uji chi-square antara pengetahuan siswa dengan kejadian sakit diperoleh nilai p=0.051, dan antara penerapan PHBS siswa dengan kejadian sakit nilai p = 0.478. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa tidak ada hubungan yang signifikan antara pengetahuan dan PHBS terhadap kejadian sakit anak sekolah dasar di wilayah perkotaan dan pedesaan Kabupaten Banyumas.Kata kunci: Anak Sekolah Dasar, Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat, Pedesaan. ABSTRACTVarious diseases that often attack school-age children, are generally related to children's understanding of what is clean and healthy living, as well as the application of clean and healthy living habits (PHBS) and children's understanding of what is clean and healthy living. This study aims to see the relationship between knowledge and PHBS of elementary school children on the incidence of illness during the pancemic of Covid-19. A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional study design was carried out involving 58 elementary school children in urban and rural areas of Banyumas Regency. The results showed that most students had low knowledge of nutrition and health (62.1%), however, there were already more students who had implemented PHBS properly (63.8%). Chi-square test between students 'knowledge and the incidence of illness obtained p value = 0.051, and between the application of students' PHBS and the incidence of illness p = 0.478. It can be concluded that there is no significant relationship between knowledge and PHBS on the incidence of illness in primary school children in urban and rural areas of Banyumas Regency. Keywords: School-age children, Cleand and Healthy Living Habits (PHBS), urban, rural area.

Age And Sex

The technique developed by Hartup, Moore, and Sager (1963) was used to measure avoidance of non-traditional sex-typing in school-age children. A between-subjects design was used in which 40 elementary school children were studied under four experimental conditions (sexes, ages 5 and 10 yr.). The dependent variable was the number of observations in which looking at or touching sex-atypical toys was scored. Statistical analyses showed that 10-yr.-olds avoided atypical sex objects more than did the 5-yr.-olds, and boys avoided sex-atypical objects more than did girls. There was no interaction between age and sex. The results support the hypothesis that avoidance of behavior can be a useful index of the development of sex-role typing.

We have heard much about discovery as a method of teaching the “new arithmetic” to elementary school children. Discovery is as stimulating at the teacher-education level as it is at the elementary school level.
