We conducted an exploratory study evaluating the potential impact of intergenerational programming (IG) on children's socio-emotional development, behavior, school performance, and attitudes and behavior toward older adults.
Families with a child with DS deal with many of the same issues I do as mom to three teen daughters with autism -- behavior, school, discrimination, health, "the future" (insert Jaw's theme music here).
The anonymous, self-completed questionnaire included measures of risk behavior, school connectedness, parental bonding, and other factors.
The primary outcomes of this study are frequency of (cyber bullying, psychological wellbeing, problem behavior, school performance and truancy.
A number of subscale scores are also generated, e.g., withdrawn behavior, somatic complaints, anxious/depressed, social problems, thought problems, attention problems, delinquent behavior, aggressive behavior, school performance, and social functioning.
For instance, much research points to early antisocial behavior, school bonding, and inadequate parental monitoring as predictors of various adverse outcomes (Arthur et al. 2002; Dekovic 1999; Duncan et al. 2000).
Instead of focusing on punishing risky behaviors, schools should offer more alternative, drug-free activities to students.
Aggressiveness, oppositional behaviors, school failure, anger outbursts, social isolation and the like may be some of the manifestations of past experiences that remain unprocessed in the child's brain and continue to be activated by daily life triggers.
The tadpoles of the African clawed frog Xenopus possess a complex CNS and exhibit rich social behaviors (schooling), kin recognition, and the ability to modulate growth rate based on visual appraisal of conspecific density [62], [63].
By the observed search behavior of schools, it is clear that both good and bad schools find the top value to be greater than the bottom.
