摘要:

AbstractEarly developmental language delay is characterized by slow development of language in preschoolers. The condition is frequent amoung tow‐and three‐year‐olds, causes concern among parents, and generates differences of opinion as to significance among informed professionals. Poorer long‐term outcomes are much more likely if language delay persists until the later preschool year, and if the dealy is not specific to language and/or includes problems in understanding. Specific language delay in the preschool period is better characterized as a risk factor than disorder, most children with specific language delay recover to the normal range by five years

摘要:

AbstractThe predictive power of early visual attention in terms of later cognitive functioning was compared to standard developmental test scores and further early predictors of later development. In a longitudinal study of 226 infants at risk visual attention in a habituation‐dishabituation paradigm was assessed at 3 months and cognitive development was measured at 3, 24 and 54 months. The results indicated that response decrement and response recovery measures are related lo cognitive outcome in later childhood, but failed to support their superiority over standard developmental test scores or early biological and psychosocial predictors of later IQ. Methodological shortcomings of previous studies and theoretical weaknesses of the habituation concept were discussed as a possible explanatio

摘要:

AbstractThe purpose of this study was 10 estimate the prevalence of suicidal behaviors and their relation to background characteristics, social integration, academic stress, psychological distress, and substance use in a stratified random sample of 9886 high school students in Korea. In a multiple logistic regression, we found that depression was the strongest predictor of suicidal behaviors. The other factors significantly associated with suicidal behaviours were gender, academic stress, hostility and substance use. These results indicate that early identification of risk factors for suicidal behaviors may have potential for reducing possible future suicides.

摘要:

AbstractEating disorder tendencies in 197 eleventh grade Japanese girls were examined to ascertain whether or not the reported correlates of eating disorder tendencies in North America would be replicated in Japan. The 26‐item Eating Attitudes Test was administered along with a set of supplementary questions. As hypothesized, higher levels of eating disturbances were found in the students who: (1)perceived themselves as being overweight, (2)had been encouraged to diet, (3)reported engaging in frequent conversations with their mother about food and dieting. Implications for future cross‐cultural research are discus

摘要:

AbstractAsch's line judgement task was used to compare the susceptibility to social influence of adults with Asperger's syndrome with that of two groups of controls one of which was matched on verbal IQ, There was no overall difference between the three groups' mean rate of conformity but in contrast to both groups of controls, the subjects with Asperger's syndrome were significantly more likely to adopt a consistently conforming or non‐conforming strategy. There were also significant differences between the groups in their interaction with the cither participants. The implications of the findings are discussed in the context of current theories of autistic social dysfunctio

摘要:

AbstractA statistical study was made of reported night‐waking in a national cohort of British 5‐year‐olds in order to explore long‐term associations with physical, behavioural and mental development. After adjusting for the most likely confounders, reported night‐waking al five was found to be linked at 10 years of age to certain chronic medical conditions and some symptoms of emotional distress. No convincing relationships existed between night‐waking at five and selected measures of later physical development or intellect

摘要:

AbstractBehavioral patterns over lime were assessed during the Bret 24 days of hospitalization for 98 child psychiatric inpatients. Staff completed daily behavioral monitoring and ratings. Patients were categorized as improved, unchanged or deteriorated during this time. Thirty‐four percent or patients initially exhibited well‐controlled behavior, but then significantly worsened after a period averaging 6.8 days This result empirically supports the “honeymoon” phenomenon. Other patients showed either improvement during the initial period (15%). no change (30%), or could not be reliably classified (21%). Therefore, many child inpatients show rapid symptom stabilization after admission, but a large number then worsen. Clinical, scientific and administrative implications of these results arc di
