摘要:

This paper describes the concept of dissociation as it might be assessed in children. It compares the measurement of adult symptoms of dissociative disorders in an effort to propose an appropriate, age‐specific evaluation tool for children. The authors review several psychometric instruments that are utilized to screen for the effects of abuse in children. A thorough evaluation of children exhibiting early signs of a dissociative disorder provides the opportunity for prompt diagnosis and proper treatment. The primary impact of expeditious assessment is the significant reduction of the potential for the development of full‐blown chronic trauma symptomatology in adulthood such as multiple personality disor

摘要:

Forty‐five fifth grade children participated in a study to examine whether obese children differ in self‐esteem from their average‐weight peers. The study also explored whether obese children use the processes of discounting and cognitive distortion to maintain self‐esteem. The obese children had lower scores than average‐weight children in global self‐worth, and in perceived competence in physical appearance and social acceptance, but not in scholastic competence, athletic competence, or behavioral conduct. The pattern of results indicate that obese children do not discount the importance of physical appearance and weight, but use distortion. Further, the use of distortion by obese children was associated with more positive self‐perceptions. Although the use of defensive cognitions was effective in enhancing obese childrm's global self‐worth, it was not powerful enough to prevent completely the negative effects of obesity

摘要:

Seclusion and restraint are controversial, restrictive interventions employed by psychiatric nurses in response to patient violence. While these interventions are used widely, relatively little is known about them. There is little support in the literature for the efficacy of seclusion and restraint. Although it seems impractical to suggest that seclusion and restraint be eliminated, many questions about these processes are unanswered. Nurses are in an ideal position to conduct studies related to patients' behavior and the use of seclusion and restraint. This article presents a review of the literature related to seclusion and restraint and suggests areas for future research.
