摘要:

AbstractThree groups of subjects, an idiot‐savant group, a group of mentally handicapped subjects matched for IQ, and normal artistically gifted children, were compared for their recognition and graphic reproduction abilities. It was found that, independent of input modality, level of intelligence determined recognition performance, while graphic ability independent of IQ was the determining factor in reproduction accurac

摘要:

AbstractThe accuracy and the artistic merit of drawings produced by graphically gifted idiot‐savants and by artistically able normal children were investigated in various conditions. Drawings had to be executed when a three‐ or two‐dimensional model of the scene to be drawn was in view, or when it had to be remembered or drawn from another viewpoint. It was found that overall accuracy was better for the normal than for the mentally handicapped subjects. In contrast, ratings for artistic merit did not differentiate the groups. It is concluded that while the accuracy of drawings may be related to intelligence, the artistic quality of the graphic production i

摘要:

AbstractA WHO working group undertook a radical revision of the psychosocial axis for the classification of abnormal psychosocial situations. The rationale for the revision and the approach taken is described, together with the overall structure of the coding scheme and the subcodings within each category.

摘要:

AbstractIn an epidemiological longitudinal study, 356 out of 399 8‐yr old children were re‐examined at age 13. Prevalence rates for psychiatric disorders of about 16% remained constant during adolescence. The course of emotional disorders proved very promising, while that of conduct disorders was extremely unfavorable. Remission of psychiatric disorders was also influenced by an improved psychosocial environment within the family. Development of disorders in initially healthy children was related to prior learning disabilities and stressful life events. More effective approaches in the treatment of conduct disorders as well as early detection of detrimental familial conditions and learning disabilities are called

摘要:

AbstractWe compared problems and competencies reported for 2600 randomly selected nonreferred children in Sydney and the U.S.A. Sydney children scored significantly higher on 82 problem items, with a mean total problem score of 31.6 versus 20.1 for the U.S.A. Nevertheless, item scores correlated 0.92 between countries, most differences between competence scores were small, and patterns were similar for sex, age, socioeconomic status, and internalizing versus externalizing problems. Although higher clinical cutoffs may be needed in Sydney, the similarity of patterns in scores permits calibration of the Child Behavior Checklist between Sydney and the U.S.A. Sex differences found in seven cultures were summarized.

摘要:

AbstractThe overall objective of this paper is to assess the clinical significance of neurocognitive impairments (NCI) among children with psychiatric disorders. One hundred and fifty‐three children referred to a mental health clinic underwent neuropsychological testing. Their parents were interviewed to obtain background information and data on their children's behavior. Parents and teachers also filled out behavior checklists. The results suggest that neurocognitive impairments are: (1) more strongly associated with externalizing rather than internalizing psychiatric diagnoses; and (2) are correlated with psychiatric symptoms at school, but not at home. The implications for understanding the impact of neurocognitive impairments on the situational specificity of psychiatric symptoms are discusse

摘要:

AbstractThe existence of a strong correlation between phonological awareness and the development of reading has long been known. More recently, it has been shown that pre‐reading rhyming skills are the best predictor of later reading ability that we have. One reason for this relationship may be that children who have put words into rhyming categories before they begin school may be quick to realize that these words also tend to share the same spelling patterns, and may then use such similarities in spelling to make predictions (analogies) about how new written words will sound. The present study tests one aspect of this hypothesis, which is that children who make more analogies in reading are also better at rhyming than children who do not. Evidence consistent with this prediction is presente
