Purpose: This study describes the development of a violence prevention educational program for elementary school children using empathy (VPEP-E) that teachers can use during class.Methods: Hoffman's theory of empathy and Seels and Richey's (1994) ADDIE model were applied to develop this program.Results: The developed program consisted of eight sessions: "Orientation/definition of violence and empathy", "Types and boundaries of violence", "Look into my feelings", "Say it with a facial expression", "Preventing non-empathic violence due to social prejudice", "Preventing physical violence", "Verbal and online violence prevention: empathic conversation", and "I can do well: review of the whole curriculum". The program was evaluated by 15 elementary school teachers, who considered it to be easily accessible to elementary school students. The final VPEP-E, which will be provided in eight times for 40 minutes each for fifth-grade students, will provide a basis for preventing violence by fostering empathy.Conclusion: We expect the developed educational program to be effective in preventing violence among elementary school students. However, further research involving children from various age groups is needed.

AbstractAround 30% of elementary school students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are considered minimally verbal, yet there is limited research addressing the needs of this group of students. Several recent studies have demonstrated successful improvement of the communication skills of elementary school students with limited verbal skills. Additionally, there are focused intervention practices that are evidence based and may be useful in targeting communication skills for children with ASD who are minimally verbal. This article will review existing information about interventions to target communication skills in elementary school children with ASD who are minimally verbal, identify potential target skills, and provide case examples of how to embed communication interventions in elementary school classroom settings from a pilot intervention study.

The article is devoted to the substantiation and results of a study of implicit notions of a happy person in elementary school students. The methodological foundation is constructed by D.A. Leontiev’s two-level model of happiness, K. Riff’s concept of happiness as the basis of psychological well-being, and V.L. Sitnikov’s concept of the image of a person. The deployed research method is “SPI(H) — the Structure of a Person’s Image (Hierarchical)” (V.Sitnikov) including the verbal and non-verbal associative experiment with the subsequent content analysis. The novelty of the study lies in the comparison of the image of a happy person and self-image through the psychosemantic method including a comparative analysis of the notions of a happy person in children from complete and incomplete families. A happy person is associated by elementary school children with an emotionally positive attitude towards life, a responsible and caring attitude towards people, the presence of a family and active interaction with it, less often with success in educational and intellectual activity and material well-being, as well as the presence of friends. A happy person is idealized by younger students, however, their image is more abstract compared to children’s self-images. Elementary school students from complete families are characterized by greater conformity of the self-image with the image of a happy person whereas only half of the children from incomplete families show such correspondence. The predominant modality of both images is positive in all children. Social, bodily, and metaphorical characteristics are more common in the image of a happy person among children from incomplete families while the conventional social role characteristics dominate among children from complete families. The prospects for further study of the image of a happy person in elementary school children within the framework of family psychology are outlined.

28 elementary school students were assessed for intelligence, then blindfolded and asked to explore objects manually before rendering judgments about how weight and width were related to length. Exploration time for each object was hypothesized to reflect the level of processing engaged in by the participants. It was also predicted that more intelligent children would produce the most accurate judgments. Inconsistent with the predictions, analysis indicated that children of higher intelligence did not produce the most accurate judgments. However, longer exploration times reflected a tendency to refrain from endorsing a negative correlation between length and width. Depth of processing is, therefore, presumed to aid in reasoning about covariation.

The school from home (SFH) policy during the COVID-19 pandemic has an impact on the routine activities of elementary students at home. Prior to COVID-19, the time spent by elementary school children using gadgets ranged from 1 to 2 hours per day, while during SFH elementary students could spend at least 4 hours per day. The increasing intensity and frequency of gadget use among elementary school students makes the role of parents important in accompanying children. Of course, the role of parents is needed so that children can use gadgets wisely to support educational goals, not just for entertainment purposes. The purpose of this study is to strengthen the role of parents in assisting elementary school children to use gadgets during the COVID-19 pandemic through outreach and mentoring activities. The subjects involved were 30 parents who have elementary school children in Porodeso Village, Sekaran District, Lamongan Regency. The method of implementation uses face-to-face techniques (with health protocols), door to door, and online (online using whatsapp group). Based on the results of interviews with parents after participating in the program, it shows that most parents have understood and implemented the gadget assistance material for children.

Abstract: Besides caries, tooth and mouth disease commonly found in children is gingival inflammation (gingivitis). The high prevalence of gingivitis in Indonesia is due to the fact that most people have not adopted good and effective habits in tooth brushing. Indicators determining the effectiveness of tooth brushing consist of tooth brushing time, frequency, duration, and method. This study was aimed to determine the overview of tooth brushing habit and gingival health status among elementary school students. This was a literature review study using the Google Scholar database. The keywords used were brushing habits, gingival health status, and elementary school children. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a critical appraisal was carried out that obtained 4 literatures consisting of 2 cross-sectional studies and 2 descriptive surveys. The results showed that most children had good habit of tooth brushing, however there were some children who had poor habit tooth brushing due to lack of understanding about the time, method, duration, and frequency of tooth brushing. The most common gingival disease was categorized as mild inflammation, followed by moderate inflammation; no severe inflammation criteria was reported. In conclusion, most elementary school students had good habit of tooth brushing and the most common gingival disease was in mild inflammation.Keywords: habit of brushing teeth, gingival health status, and elementary school children. Abstrak: Penyakit gigi dan mulut yang banyak ditemukan pada anak selain karies ialah peradangan gingiva (gingivitis). Tingginya prevalensi gingivitis di Indonesia disebabkan karena masyarakat belum menerapkan kebiasaan yang baik dan efektif dalam menyikat gigi. Indikator penentu efektivitas menyikat gigi terdiri dari waktu menyikat gigi, frekuensi, durasi, dan metode. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran kebiasaan menyikat gigi dan status kesehatan gingiva pada anak Sekolah Dasar. Jenis penelitian ialah studi pustaka. Pencarian data mengguna-kan database Google Scholar. Kata kunci yang digunakan yaitu kebiasaan menyikat gigi, status kesehatan gingiva, dan anak sekolah dasar. Setelah diseleksi berdasarkan kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi, dilakukan critical appraisal dan didapatkan 4 pustaka terdiri dari 2 studi potong lintang dan 2 survei deskriptif. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan sebagian besar anak melakukan kebiasaan menyikat gigi dengan baik namun masih terdapat anak dengan kebiasaan menyikat gigi yang buruk akibat kurangnya pengertian mengenai waktu menyikat gigi, frekuensi, durasi, dan metode. Penyakit gingiva yang paling banyak didapatkan yaitu pada kriteria inflamasi ringan, diikuti kriteria inflamasi sedang; kriteria inflamasi berat tidak dilaporkan. Simpulan penelitian ini ialah sebagian besar anak Sekolah Dasar telah melakukan kebiasaan menyikat gigi yang baik dan penyakit gingiva yang tersering ditemukan pada kriteria inflamasi ringan.Kata kunci: kebiasaan menyikat gigi, status kesehatan gingiva, dan anak sekolah dasar
