摘要:

ABSTRACT:Adolescent pregnancy may occur when developmental needs have not been met adequately during earlier childhood stages. Reasons adolescents give for becoming pregnant may indicate which developmental needs were not met. Once developmental needs have been identified, professionals can help the adolescent and her child by tailoring interventions to fill gaps that occurred during earlier stages of development. This article explores the potential relationship between adolescent pregnancy and unfinished developmental tasks of childhood. Implications for intervention are addressed.

摘要:

ABSTRACT:Colleges are beginning to use the Role Delineation Project Curriculum Framework for curricular reform at the graduate and undergraduate levels. This paper describes the efforts of three universities to revise their curricula based on the Framework. At Towson State University, it is being used with other national and state standards to assess health educators. At the University of Alabama at Birmingham, it provided the structure by which the faculty determined the competence of exiting health majors. At the University of Georgia, it was used in strategic planning and graduate education restructuring. The Framework, while lacking material in certain professional development areas, provides the structure for departments to begin the process of health education curricula reform.

摘要:

ABSTRACT:The 40th anniversary of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute provided an opportunity to pay tribute to the Framingham Heart Study, the landmark epidemiological study that examined longitudinally the development of coronary heart disease in a general adult population. The Framingham Heart Study pioneered the concept that certain items, known eventually as risk factors, were associated with the development of heart disease. The concept of risk factors spawned a new generation of studies aimed at intervening to reduce the impact of risk factors on health. As part of its celebration of the 40th anniversary ‐ and the 100th anniversary of the National Institutes of Health ‐ the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, sponsored poster and essay contests for Framingham, Mass., students to commemorate the event. This article recaps the history of the Framingham Heart Study, describes the poster and essay contests, and outlines current and future involvement of the NHLBI in school health resea

摘要:

ABSTRACT:This study examined effects of computer‐assisted instruction on decision‐making, assertiveness, and interpersonal communication related to responsible sexuality. Health science classes from four secondary schools in three mid‐western states participated in the quasi‐experimental study. The Experimental Group (n = 151) received simulation‐based CAI, while Control Group #1 (n = 147) received regular classroom instruction, and Control Group #2 (n = 93) received no intervention. A 46‐item questionnaire was administered to determine changes in the dependent variables. Findings indicated CAI, but not RCI, effectively improved decision‐making knowledge and behavior, assertiveness knowledge and behavior, and interpersonal communication knowledge, attitude, and behavior. However, CAI did not improve assertiveness attitude. Over a five‐week period, the effectiveness of CAI decayed for the knowledge variables. The effectiveness of CAI varied according to subject's gender, grade, and school‐community setting. Results suggest simulation‐based CAI provides an instructional approach that promotes positive change in some interaction skills related to responsible sexuality without many of the risks inherent in regular classroom instruction involving su

摘要:

ABSTRACT:Comprehensive teen‐age pregnancy programs have endeavored to reduce associated morbidity and mortality. Positive results have been reported, but significant findings have been elusive. This article describes a rural program and compares the pregnancy outcomes of 60 matched nonparticipants. The study determined a relationship existed between participation in the program and maternal complications, birth weight, gestational age, Apgar score, and perinatal morbidity. Participants were matched perfectly on socioeconomic status and age, and near‐perfectly on year of delivery. Subjects also were matched on ethnicity, marital status, and residence. Participation and fewer maternal complications of anemia, infections, and eclampsia were significantly related. Remaining dependent variables were not significantly related, but low birth weight (six vs. 11) and prematurity (six vs. nine) were lower for participants. Suggestions for researchers of teen pregnancy programs are inclu
