This study concerned comparison of named and anonymous administrations of two newly developed semantic differentials (SD) to 50 select university students in a course in child growth and development. Analysis of variance yielded no significant differences between the administrations. Statistically significant differences were obtained for the two different SDs ( p = .05) for two of the three concepts and for the total of the three concepts.

Using a semantic differential to assess person perception, a non-random sample of 30 female university students recorded their impressions of a number of pictures of female stimulus persons. The pictures represented a systematic pairing of faces of varying levels of attractiveness, and clothed bodies of varying levels of attractiveness. The results of a 3 × 3 Latin square analysis of variance showed facial attractiveness to be a significant factor in the perception of physical attractiveness of the total unit, social and professional happiness, and social desirability. Attractiveness of the clothed body exerted a significant effect in the perception of bourgeois orientation. Pearson productmoment correlation results indicated that as level of perceived physical attractiveness increased, so did the perception of social and professional happiness and social desirability.

Objetivo: descrever os registros de crescimento e desenvolvimento realizados  pelos enfermeiros na consulta de enfermagem de crianças menores de dois anos em unidades de saúde da família (USF). Métodos: Estudo documental com abordagem quantitativa que analisou prontuários e cadernetas de saúde da criança (CSC)  que tiveram consulta de enfermagem no período de janeiro a fevereiro de 2012 em quatro USF de Cuiabá-MT. Resultados: Dos 22 prontuários analisados, 100% tinham anotações de peso e estatura, 59,1% dos registros de desenvolvimento estavam incompletos e não se observou a presença de gráfico de crescimento e desenvolvimento (CD) nos prontuários. Todas as CSC tinham registros nos gráficos de peso e estatura e em 86,4% delas havia anotações dos marcos de desenvolvimento. Conclusão: A ausência de registros adequados de CD inviabiliza a identificação de situações de risco e o planejamento de ações para assistência à criança e sua continuidade.

AbstractCongenital Heart Defects (CHDs) are associated with different patterns of malnutrition and growth retardation, which may vary worldwide and need to be evaluated according to local conditions. Although tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is one of the first described CHDs, the etiology outcomes in growth and development of TOF in early age child is still unclear in most cases. This study was designed to investigate the growth retardation status of Chinese pediatric TOF patients under 5 years old. The body height, body weight and body mass index (BMI) of 262 pediatric patients (138 boys and 124 girls) who underwent corrective surgery for TOF between 2014 and 2018 were measured using conventional methods. The average body height, body weight and BMI of the patients were significantly lower than WHO Child Growth Standards, while the most affected was body height. Meanwhile, higher stunting frequency and greater deterioration of both the body height and weight happened in elder age (aged 13–60 months) rather than in infant stage (aged 0–12 months) among these patients. Our results confirmed that intervention should be given at early age to prevent the growth retardation of TOF patients getting severer.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of frequency of blinking on creating a personal impression. The subjects were 88 Japanese university students, 35 males and 53 females, who rated stimulus persons on a seven-point semantic differential scale. The stimulus persons, two males and two females, were presented on a 20-second video simulating various blink rates, i.e., 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 blinks/min. A factor analysis of the ratings yielded three factors, interpreted as Nervousness, Unfriendliness, and Carelessness. As the frequency of the stimulus persons'blinking increased, so did the tendency to rate them as more nervous and more careless. As for Unfriendliness, there was a U-shaped relation between the frequency of blinking and the impressions formed. Present results provide evidence that frequency of blinking plays an important role in impression formation. Further implications of the findings are discussed.
