- Abstract
Introduction: Introduction: promoting healthy eating habits among childhood is one of the key aspects to improve medium and long-term health outcomes. Objectives: the main aims are to improve eating habits, promote the Mediterranean diet (MD) and prevent and/or reverse overweight and obesity in children from 3 to 12 years old. Methods: the program has a one-year follow-up and includes three to five visits with registered dietitians, one telephone control and one practical workshop. Anthropometric, body composition and eating habits data are collected, and nutritional education is carried out. A total sample of 1,000 children will be included. Results: until now, 622 participants have been included (51.6 % boys; median age 8.5 years). At the beginning, 32.2 % of participants were overweight or obese and 38.9 % had an adequate MD. Although no differences were found in the assessment of the Kidmed questionnaire regarding sex (p = 0.214) or body mass index (BMI) subgroups (p = 0.181), differences were found regarding age (p = 0.023) and BMI Z-score (p = 0.004), showing slightly lower values in those having and adequate MD. At the moment, 362 participants have made the six-month visit, of which 61.6 % presented an adequate MD, with statistically significant differences compared to the baseline visit (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: preliminary results show the need for nutritional education in children and suggest that Programa Nutriplato® can be effective in improving eating habits.

This paper seeks to develop a "Strength-based proactive approach for building resilience in school children" under political crisis to be used by counsellors within Gaza schools to advance social and emotional learning programmes that enhance students' resilience and wellbeing. A mixed-methodological approach was used to collect and analyse the data. The qualitative methods included the data collection using literature review, (12) interviews with school principals and psychologists and (12) focus groups with parents, counsellors and teachers. The quantitative method included data collection using (619) students' self-administered questionnaires. The study population consisted of all the students of basic education grades in Gaza city. The study sample was random and consisted of (619) students. Statistical analysis was used to analyse the questionnaire and the content analysis was used to analyse qualitative data. Findings obtained in this study reflected that both qualitative and quantitative methods highlighted similar strength factors that support building resilience among school children in Gaza. They define children's ability to adapt and succeed despite the difficult conditions surrounding them, child positive thinking, providing care, creating a supportive school environment, incorporating resilience topics in curriculum, engaging children in resiliency workshops, building strong relationships between school and family, joining peer groups and building good relationship with neighbours and relatives. In conclusion, this study comes as the first effort to develop Conceptual Strength-Based Proactive Approach model for counsellors in Gaza city and other cities experiencing similar political instability to apply effective approaches for fostering academic learning, resilience and wellbeing of school children.

- Abstract
Stuttering is a multidimensional neurodevelopmental disorder that comprises primary and secondary behaviors but also feelings and attitudes. These ones have a huge importance in the overall characterization and impact of stuttering. This research aims to: 1) guarantee the adaptation and content validation of the assessment instrument A-19 to European Portuguese, and 2) analyze A-19 construct validity through a pilot study. Across-sectional , quantitative and qualitative study was developed to ensure the adaptation and content validation of A-19. The achievement of semantic, conceptual, experiential and idiomatic equivalences was only possible after the experts’ debate of several items concerning meaning, concept and cultural experience.The final Portuguese version of A-19 was used in a pilot study in which 42 children participated (21 children who stutter and 21 children who do not stutter). The group of school-age children who stutter presented a higher A-19 mean (6.29) in comparison with children who do not stutter (5.48), although the difference was not statistically significant. The Portuguese Version of A19 identifies the differences in feelings and attitudes between school age children who do and who do not stutter. The fact that this sample of children who stutter is already attending speech and language therapy sessions in which emotional, behavioural and cognitive reactions are explored, may have contributed to a non-significative difference in A-19 scores. The content and construct validity of A-19 European Portuguese Version is assured, as so this is a valid instrument to assess feelings and attitudes of school age children who stutter., La tartamudez es un trastorno multidimensional del neurodesarrollo que comprende conductas primarias y secundarias, pero también sentimientos y actitudes. Esto tiene una enorme importancia en la caracterización global y el impacto de la tartamudez. Esta investigación pretende: 1) mostrar la adaptación y validación del instrumento de evaluación A-19 al portugués europeo y 2) analizar la validez de constructo del A-19 a través de un estudio piloto. Se desarrolló un estudio transversal, cuantitativo y cualitativo para garantizar la adaptación y validación de contenido de A-19. El logro de equivalencias semánticas, conceptuales, experienciales e idiomáticas fue posible tras el debate de expertos acerca de varios ítems relativos a significado, concepto y experiencia cultural. La versión portuguesa final de A-19 se utilizó en un estudio piloto en el que participaron 42 niños (21 niños que tartamudean y 21 niños que no tartamudean). El grupo de niños en edad escolar que tartamudean presentó una media de A-19 más alta (6,29) en comparación con los niños que no tartamudean (5,48), aunque la diferencia no fue estadísticamente significativa. La versión portuguesa de A19 identifica las diferencias en sentimientos y actitudes entre niños en edad escolar que tartamudean y que no tartamudean. El hecho de que esta muestra de niños que tartamudean ya esté asistiendo a sesiones de logopedia en las que se exploran las reacciones emocionales, conductuales y cognitivas, puede haber contribuido a una diferencia no significativa en las puntuaciones del A-19. Los datos sobre validez de contenido y de constructo del A-19 muestran que se trata de un instrumento válido para evaluar sentimientos y actitudes de niños tartamudos en edad escolar.

El objetivo principal de esta intervención fue diseñar y aplicar programas de educación física para el mejoramiento de las capacidades físicas estudiantes de segundo a quinto de primaria del CPS de Suba. Los resultado que se obtuvieron se logró evidenciar un avance significativo de 93% de mejora en general de la población evaluada, lo que quiere decir que el desarrollo de las capacidades físicas fueron estimulados y se tuvo un desarrollo motor y psicológico óptimo para el progreso de niño, por el alto impacto que se tuvo durante la ejecución de la sesiones. También se logra evidenciar el avance de los niños , pero en algunos fue más rápido la conciencia y el estímulo corporal que acoplar el cuerpo , como en otros que costó más trabajo pero aun así lograron generar un avance personal frente a la evaluación inicial, los resultados finales nos indican la importancia de desarrollar un programa dirigido especialmente a capacidades físicas en la asignatura de la educación física, ya que lo beneficios son muy grandes en la etapa de iniciación en su desarrollo deportivo, como social para tener una mejor “maduración corporal”. The intervention program of the San José Artistic High School emphasizes the improvement of the development of physical abilities, through physical activity sessions, playful and recreational activities. pre sports activities among others, where 46 students were evaluated among them (25 boys and 21 girls). The main objective of this intervention was to design and apply physical education programs to improve the physical abilities of students from the second to fifth grades of the Suba CPS. The results that will be produced will show a significant 93% improvement in general of the evaluated population, which means that the development of physical abilities were stimulated and there was optimal motor and psychological development for the progress of the child, for the high impact that was had during the execution of the sessions. It is also possible to demonstrate the progress of the children, but in some the awareness and bodily stimulation was faster than to fit the body, as in others that took more work but still managed to generate personal progress compared to the initial evaluation, the results The final results indicate the importance of developing a program aimed especially at physical abilities in the subject of physical education, since the benefits are very great in the initiation stage in their sports development, as well as socially to have a better "body maturation".

Background: Hearing screening is an important part of prevention. It allows early detection of hearing disorders, allowing treatment to begin early and eliminating or minimizing negative consequences. Children with hearing impairment often experience delayed speech development and cognitive abilities, which can result in learning disabilities and reduce school progress. Since 1999, the Institute of Physiology and Pathology of Hearing in Poland has provided a hearing screening program for school-aged children in the country. The main aim of the program is the early detection of hearing disorders, especially in children starting school, and to increase the awareness of parents and the school more generally about hearing problems. Material and Methods: There were 6,297 children from the Warmian -- Masurian Voivodeship enrolled in the program (3,050 girls; 3,247 boys) from grades 1 to 6 and aged between 6 and 13 years. Hearing screening was conducted over two time-frames: from September 2014 to June 2015, and from September 2015 to June 2016. Most of the children were from the first group: 81.1% of all pupils examined. Each child was assessed by pure tone audiometry and a questionnaire addressed to parents. Results: Based on the result of the audiogram, screening showed that hearing impairment was found in 1169 (18.6%) of the examined pupils. Of these, 64.5% (750 children) had single-sided hearing loss. Conclusion: The results confirm that awareness of hearing disorders in Poland is low. Many school-age children have hearing loss, but it is often not detected by caregivers and teachers. Even small hearing losses may cause difficulties in communication, emotional reactions, or learning. Early detection of hearing disorders is therefore crucial. A screening program can quickly identify patients with hearing loss and implement appropriate treatment and rehabilitation as soon as possible, actions that can improve the quality of life of the children and their families.

Healthy and clean living behaviors among school-aged children are still relatively low, exposing them to the risk of experiencing health problems in the future, such as diarrhea. This school-age period is actually the earliest phase in which children can develop healthy behaviors, hence making this phase a strategic target for health improvements. School-aged children are in a period of concrete operational development and they require specific health education methods that can reflect real and interactive experiences. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of therapeutic sociodramatic play on diarrheal preventive behaviors among school-aged children (6--12 years). The study design was a quasi-experimental with pre- and post-tests design, involving 76 school-age children who were divided into intervention group and control group. Multistage random sampling was used to determine the research area and school where the research was conducted, while the research subject was selected using simple random sampling. The results showed that therapeutic sociodramatic play significantly affects knowledge (p value = 0.000), attitudes (p value = 0.000), and diarrheal prevention skills (p value = 0.001). The study recommends that therapeutic sociodramatic play could be applied in an effort to enhance healthy and clean living behaviors and to prevent diarrhea among school-aged children, and it could be integrated into school nursing services.

Objectives: Physical activity (PA) has been shown to have multiple health and wellness benefits, but there is no such information for adolescents with high intellectual ability (HIA). Thus, the aim of this study is to assess body composition and PA in HIA Chilean adolescents.Methods: Weight and body composition were measured by bioelectrical impedance in 73 adolescents (39 female) aged 14-18 years from the Valparaíso region of Chile. HIA was assessed via Raven's Progressive Matrices (> 75th percentile) and PA, via questionnaire. Obesity was defined as a body fat percentage (BF%) ≥ 25 (for boys) or ≥ 30 BF% (for girls).Results: Obesity prevalence was 43.59% in females and 8.82% in males. A total of 69% of adolescents performed more than two hours of weekly exercise, with the amount being greater in males. BF% and fat mass index were significantly different (p < 0.05) in adolescents who engaged in fewer than two hours of weekly exercise. On the contrary, subjects who performed more than two hours of weekly exercise exhibited higher mass muscle percentages (p < 0.01). After controlling for socioeconomic status and PA, the obesity odds ratio (OR = 7.6; 95% CI: 1.9-30.9) was significantly higher in females (p < 0.01).Conclusions: Adolescents with HIA reported elevated PA. However, obesity was more prevalent in females, who also reported less weekly PA than males. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

- Abstract
Premature birth and low birth weight are very important factors in neurodevelopment. Current research in this population focuses on children born prematurely, with no underlying complications in the post-natal period, who are likely to develop specific disorders with their language development and consequently with their learning capabilities too. This study aims to analyse the oral language skills of prematurely born children in comparison to their school-aged peers. The children were assessed in the respective schools, 27 preterm children (16 under 32 weeks and 11 with 32 or more weeks of gestation) and 49 term paired by gender, age, and school year. Tests including simple and complex structures for assessing semantics, morphosyntax, and phonology were used, as well as a test of verbal memory. Preterm born children, regardless of their prematurity grade, showed significantly lower results than their peers, and more than a half of them, 52%, presented low scores in all language tests simultaneously, showing an important language deficit. In contrast, in the term born children group only 14% showed low scores simultaneously in all tests. Verbal memory ability proved to be lower than that of their term peers, regardless of the gestational age and birth weight of preterm children. As a result of this analysis we consider that the evaluation of the linguistic development of these children, even in cases of moderate to late prematurity, should be monitored in order to identify earlier the existence of deficits and prevent psychosocial and learning problems., El nacimiento prematuro y el bajo peso al nacer son factores muy importantes en el neurodesarrollo. Las investigaciones actuales en esta población se centran en los niños nacidos prematuramente, sin complicaciones subyacentes en el periodo postnatal, que son propensos a desarrollar trastornos específicos en el desarrollo del lenguaje y, en consecuencia, también en sus capacidades de aprendizaje. Este estudio pretende analizar las habilidades lingüísticas orales de los niños nacidos prematuramente en comparación con sus compañeros de edad escolar. Se evaluaron en las respectivas escuelas, 27 niños prematuros (16 con menos de 32 semanas y 11 con 32 o más semanas de gestación) y 49 a término emparejados por sexo, edad y curso escolar. Se utilizaron pruebas que incluían estructuras simples y complejas para evaluar la semántica, la morfosintaxis y la fonología, así como una prueba de memoria verbal. Los niños prematuros, independientemente de su grado de prematuridad, han demostrado resultados significativamente inferiores a los de sus compañeros, y más de la mitad de ellos, el 52%, presentaron puntuaciones bajas en todas las pruebas lingüísticas en simultáneo, enseñando un importante déficit lingüístico. Al contrario, en el grupo de niños nacidos a término solo el 14% mostró puntuaciones bajas en simultáneo en todas las pruebas. La capacidad de memoria verbal resultó inferior a la de sus compañeros a término, independientemente de la edad gestacional y el peso al nacer de los niños prematuros. Como resultado de este análisis, consideramos que la evaluación del desarrollo lingüístico de estos niños, incluso en los casos de prematuridad moderada o tardía, debe ser objeto de seguimiento para identificar antes la existencia de déficits y prevenir problemas psicosociales y de aprendizaje.

The Interpersonal Problem-Solving Skills Programme for Children (SCIChildren) comprises 10 weekly, one hour sessions working on interpersonal abilities from a mediation strategy for training purposes. Method: The first study explores the effectiveness of training through pre- and post-treatment evaluations of a sample of 22 children with ASD (7-13 years of age). The second study replicates the programme with 15 children who were assessed three times (three months before the programme starts, at the beginning of the training and at the end of it). Results: In the first study, significant differences were found in outcome measures (a parent-report subscale of a socialisation measure and child performance on one subscale and total scores of an interpersonal problem-solving skills task). Results in the second study showed no significant changes in absence of the treatment during the waiting period and significant changes after the treatment in the socialisation measure. Conclusions: These findings suggest that the SCI-Children program causes positive impact on the participants. Further evaluation is warranted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Although incompatibilities between work and home life are well studied, less is known about the implications of employment for another key life role, particularly for working mothers: being a ‘school-engaged parent’. Using data from in-depth interviews with 17 employed mothers in a mid-size Midwestern city, recruited from a diverse sample of 95 survey-taking parents, we examined the mechanics of how mothers' employment conditions shaped their involvement in their children's schools. We observed patterns between occupational status – professional and low-wage jobs, particularly – and when and how mothers engaged. Some with job schedule flexibility and paid time off were more often and easily able to participate in school activities, while others faced barriers to or negative consequences from using such supports. Several mothers lacked any time-related accommodations from their jobs. Yet all mothers pushed themselves to be involved, even as they had to make hard calculations about their work lives to do so. The findings extend research on the ‘life’ side of work–life research and point to the limits of U.S. education reform's emphasis on family engagement, suggesting that varied bundles of employment conditions stratify parents' school participation in ways that may be difficult for schools to accommodate.

OBJETIVO: Evaluar el sobrepeso y la obesidad maternos como factores de riesgo de sobrepeso u obesidad en niños mexicanos de edad escolar (5 a 11 años) que participaron en la Encuesta Nacional de Nutrición de 1999 (ENN 99). MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se empleó información recolectada por la ENN 99 para evaluar la relación entre el sobrepeso y obesidad maternos y el sobrepeso u obesidad en niños en edad escolar. Se usó análisis de regresión logística. RESULTADOS: Se estudió a un total de 9 259 niños de 5 a 11 años, de los cuales 19% presentó sobrepeso u obesidad, de acuerdo con la clasificación de Cole. Un 39% de las madres de los niños estudiados tuvo sobrepeso y 26.4% presentó obesidad. Los hijos de madres con sobrepeso tuvieron 1.9 veces más riesgo de ser obesos (IC95% 1.62-2.18), y los hijos de madres con obesidad tuvieron 3.4 veces más riesgo de serlo (IC95% 2.96-4.00), en comparación con los niños cuyas madres tenían un IMC normal, ajustando por edad, sexo, escolaridad de la madre, talla de la madre, residencia urbana o rural, región, condiciones socioeconómicas e indigenismo. CONCLUSIONES: El sobrepeso y la obesidad maternos son factores de riesgo de sobrepeso u obesidad en niños mexicanos en edad escolar. Deben dirigirse intervenciones para promover cambios en los estilos de vida en el ámbito intrafamiliar y modificar ambientes obesigénicos.OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of maternal overweight and obesity as risk factors for overweight and obesity in Mexican school-age children (5 to 11 years old) who participated in the National Nutrition Survey 1999 (NNS-99). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Information obtained by the NNS-99 was used to evaluate the relationship between maternal overweight and obesity and overweight or obesity in school-age children. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used. RESULTS: A total of 9 259 children were studied. The prevalence of overweight or obesity was 19%, according to the criteria suggested by Cole. Thirty-nine percent of mothers were overweight and 26.4% were obese. After controlling for age, gender, and other sociodemographic characteristics, children of overweight mothers had a 1.9 times higher risk of being obese (95%CI 1.62-2.18), and children of obese mothers had a 3.4 times higher risk of being obese (95%CI 2.96-4.00), compared to children of mothers with normal BMI. CONCLUSIONS: Maternal overweight and obesity are risk factors for overweight or obesity in Mexican school-age children. Interventions to prevent obesity in children should be aimed towards promoting family lifestyle changes and modifying obesigenic environments.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to measure the prevalence of overweight and obesity in Mexican school-age children (5-11 years) in the National Nutrition Survey 1999 (NNS-1999). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Overweight and obesity (defined as an excess of adipose tissue in the body) were evaluated through the Body Mass Index (BMI) in 10,901 children, using the standard proposed by the International Obesity Task Force. Sociodemographic variables were obtained using a questionnaire administered to the children's mothers. RESULTS: The national prevalence of overweight and obesity was reported to be 19.5%. The highest prevalence figures were found in Mexico City (26.6%) and the North region (25.6%). When adjusting by region, rural or urban area, sex, maternal schooling, socioeconomic status, indigenous ethnicity and age, the highest prevalences of overweight and obesity were found among girls. The risks of overweight and obesity were positively associated with maternal schooling, children's age and socioeconomic status. CONCLUSIONS: Overweight and obesity are prevalent health problems in Mexican school-age children, particularly among girls, and positively associated with socioeconomic status, age, and maternal schooling. This is a major public health problem requiring preventive interventions to avoid future health consequences.OBJETIVO: Documentar las prevalencias de sobrepeso y obesidad en niños mexicanos en edad escolar (5 a 11 años de edad) obtenidas de la Encuesta Nacional de Nutrición en 1999 (ENN-1999). MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: El sobrepeso y la obesidad (definida como un exceso de tejido adiposo en el organismo) se evaluaron a través del Indice de Masa Corporal (IMC) en 10 901 niños, tomando como patrón de referencia el propuesto por el International Obesity Task Force. Las variables sociodemográficas se obtuvieron a partir de un cuestionario aplicado a la madre del niño. RESULTADOS: La prevalencia nacional de sobrepeso y obesidad fue de 19.5%. Las prevalencias más altas se encontraron en la Ciudad de México (26.6%) y en la región norte (25.6%). Al ajustar por región, zona rural o urbana, sexo, escolaridad de la madre, nivel socioeconómico, edad e indigenismo, los mayores riesgos de sobrepeso y obesidad se encontraron en niñas; el riesgo de obesidad y sobrepeso se asoció positivamente con la escolaridad de la madre, con el nivel socioeconómico y con la edad de los escolares. CONCLUSIONES: El sobrepeso y obesidad son problemas de salud de alta prevalencia en niños en edad escolar en México, especialmente en niñas, y se asocia positivamente con el nivel socioeconómico, la edad de los escolares y la escolaridad de las madres. Este es un problema de salud pública que requiere acciones de prevención para evitar riesgos en la salud en un futuro.

Identity fusion involves a visceral feeling of oneness with a group, despite personal and social selves remaining differentiated. Previous research on identity fusion has focused on samples of adults and adolescents. The present studies aim at exploring how and when identity fusion develops in childhood. Our first goal was to find out to what extent personal and social identities must be developed for fusion to become possible. We conducted two exploratory studies where school-age children (six to 12 years old) participated in either focus group sessions or individual interviews. Our results show that although children are able to feel strongly connected with a group and express willingness to make significant personal sacrifices for the group, they fail to show fusion as it is found in adults, since their personal identity is not fully developed yet. Instead, these findings suggest the existence of a prior feeling that we called ‘protofusion’, the core of which is the strength of the relational ties with the members of the group.

Introducción: Tradicionalmente las mujeres están a cargo de las prácticas alimentarias que garantizan la alimentación de las niñas y niños menores de 5 años, sin embargo, diferentes actores o situaciones del contexto colocan a la mujer latinoamericana en una condición desventaja al momento de configurarlas. Esta investigación abordó las prácticas alimentarias desde una perspectiva teórica socio ecológica y de la dinámica de las prácticas sociales. Objetivos: Explorar los elementos que conforman las prácticas alimentarias que llevan a cabo las mujeres a cargo del cuidado de niñas y niños menores de 5 años para garantizar su alimentación en América Latina. Métodos: Se llevó a cabo una revisión sistemática mixta de tipo integrado convergente a partir de la revisión de investigaciones publicadas de tipo cuantitativo, cualitativo y mixto disponibles en las bases de datos BVS, EBSCO, PUBMED, SCIELO. Resultados: Se incluyeron 26 documentos en idioma inglés, español y portugués que abordaron asuntos relacionados con prácticas alimentarias llevadas a cabo por mujeres con niñas y niños entre los 2 y 5 años, durante el periodo 2010 -2020 en América Latina. La extracción de datos incluyó la identificación de hallazgos cuantitativos que fueron calificados e identificación de hallazgos cualitativos que fueron calificados, posteriormente se integraron y se sometieron a análisis de contenido temático haciendo uso de Atlas ti. Los hallazgos se presentan en una síntesis temática cualitativa que incluye cuatro temas: 1. Las preferencias alimentarias de las niñas y niños, 2. Acceso físico y económico para el consumo de alimentos. 3. El saber hacer de la mujer para el acceso, preparación y consumo de alimentos, 4. El significado social, mujer responsable de la práctica alimentaria. Se describen los elementos y sus interrelaciones entre sí en función de los niveles individual, interpersonal, institucional/comunitario y políticas y sistemas del modelo socio ecológico y se clasifican según el tipo de elementos a partir de la propuesta de la dinámica de las prácticas sociales. Conclusiones: Las prácticas alimentarias se conforman por 34 elementos, la mayoría ubicados en un nivel interpersonal y comunitario/institucional, y de tipo material. Pocas investigaciones al momento de abordar asuntos relacionados con la alimentación planteaba elementos por fuera de los límites del hogar. La práctica alimentaria se asume como un proceso de interrelaciones complejas, donde la transformación de alguno de los elementos, explica el hecho que imperen ciertos hábitos alimentarios. No sólo se debe dejar en el panorama la discusión sobre cómo las desigualdades materiales y de competencia restringen el desarrollo de la práctica alimentaria, también se debe comprender el impacto que tienen en la vida de las mujeres quienes la asumen en el marco de la desigualdad de género. El enfoque de las capacidades de Nussbaum puede aportar a la distribución igualitaria de cargas relacionadas con la alimentación desde una perspectiva de género como complemento a las dos perspectivas teóricas que guiaron la revisión.

School-age children have attracted relatively little attention as a group in need of special measures to protect them against malaria. However, increasing success in lowering the level of malaria transmission in many previously highly endemic areas will result in children acquiring immunity to malaria later in life than has been the case in the past. Thus, it can be anticipated that in the coming years there will be an increase in the incidence of both uncomplicated and severe malaria in school-age children in many previously highly endemic areas. In this review, which focuses primarily on Africa, recent data on the prevalence of malaria parasitaemia and on the incidence of clinical malaria in African school-age children are presented and evidence that malaria adversely effects school performance is reviewed. Long-lasting insecticide treated bednets ( LLIN) are an effective method of malaria control but several studies have shown that school-age children use LLINs less frequently than other population groups. Antimalarial drugs are being used in different ways to control malaria in school-age children including screening and treatment and intermittent preventive treatment. Some studies of chemoprevention in school-age children have shown reductions in anaemia and improved school performance but this has not been the case in all trials and more research is needed to identify the situations in which chemoprevention is likely to be most effective and, in these situations, which type of intervention should be used. In the longer term, malaria vaccines may have an important role in protecting this important section of the community from malaria. Regardless of the control approach selected, it is important this is incorporated into the overall programme of measures being undertaken to enhance the health of African school-age children.

La mentira prosocial es una declaración falsa con el fin de ayudar y no perjudicar a alguien. Este estudio pretende investigar la posible influencia de la edad y la cultura en las respuestas de 97 niños brasileños (de 7 a 11 años) en una tarea de mentira prosocial diseñada en un estudio previo con niños canadienses y chinos. La tarea consistió en presentar cuatro dilemas seguidos de preguntas sobre cómo actuarían los niños: diría la verdad o diría una mentira para proteger a sí mismo, a un amigo o al grupo. No se encontró ninguna influencia de la edad en los puntajes de mentira, sin embargo, los puntajes de mentira para beneficiar a un amigo fueron los más altos significativamente que los puntajes de mentir por sí mismo y mentir por el colectivo. Este patrón de resultados evidencia que, a diferencia de los niños chinos y canadienses, los niños brasileños consideran que vale más la pena mentir para proteger a un amigo que para proteger a sus propios intereses o del colectivo.

Resumen Introducción: promocionar hábitos de alimentación saludable durante la infancia es uno de los aspectos clave para fomentar un buen estado de salud a medio y largo plazo. Objetivos: los objetivos principales son mejorar los hábitos alimentarios, promocionar la dieta mediterránea (DM) y prevenir y/o revertir el sobrepeso y la obesidad en niños de 3 a 12 años. Métodos: el programa tiene un seguimiento de un año e incluye de tres a cinco visitas con dietistas-nutricionistas, un control telefónico y un taller práctico. Se recogen datos antropométricos, de composición corporal y de hábitos alimentarios, y se realiza educación nutricional. Se incluirán un total de 1.000 niños. Resultados: hasta el momento, se han incluido 622 participantes (51,6 % niños; mediana de edad de 8,5 años). Al inicio, el 32,2 % presentaba sobrepeso u obesidad y el 38,9 % seguía una DM óptima. No se encontraron diferencias en la valoración del cuestionario Kidmed en función del sexo (p = 0,214) ni del subgrupo de índice de masa corporal (IMC) (p = 0,181), pero sí en función de la edad (p = 0,023) y del Z-score del IMC (p = 0,004), mostrando valores ligeramente menores en aquellos que presentaban una DM óptima. Por ahora, 362 participantes han realizado la visita de los seis meses, de los cuales el 61,6 % presentó una DM óptima, con diferencias estadísticamente significativas en comparación con la inicial (p < 0,0001). Conclusiones: los resultados preliminares muestran la necesidad de realizar educación nutricional en los niños y sugieren que el Programa Nutriplato(r) puede ser efectivo en la mejora de hábitos alimentarios.

Antropometría ,niños en edad escolar ,diseño de muebles ,Ergonomía ,Technology - Abstract
En Costa Rica, la demanda de muebles para las escuelas primarias está siendo solventada por medio de ebanisterías locales, juntas de padres de familia e importaciones de otros países. Cada una de estas fuentes provee diferentes estilos y tamaños de muebles que se apegan a los diseños y medidas que tradicionalmente se han usado por décadas, los cuales muchas veces distan de las buenas prácticas ergonómicas. Este desajuste de medidas conlleva malas posturas y tensión en la espina dorsal de los niños. Un estudio interdisciplinario que defina las dimensiones antropométricas de los niños es necesario como punto de partida para abordar este problema. No existen en Costa Rica ni en América Latina estudios antropométricos en las poblaciones escolares, por tanto este estudio es una necesidad para un adecuado diseño de los muebles. Con el objetivo de desarrollar el estudio de medición, el país fue dividido en dos regiones: la Región Central y el resto del país, de acuerdo con la división del Ministerio de Educación en áreas escolares. Las escuelas fueron seleccionadas mediante un proceso de muestreo proporcional dentro de cada región y posteriormente, entre los niños de las diferentes escuelas. Un total de 1 293 niños fueron medidos en todo el país y se obtuvo un total de 12 medidas antropométricas necesarias para el diseño de muebles. La variabilidad dentro de cada grupo de niños de la misma edad no fue significativa, pero entre los grupos de diferentes niveles escolares sí. Asimismo, no se dieron diferencias significativas entre las mediciones de la Región Central y las del resto del país.

Objectives Studies have typically investigated health and educational consequences of malaria among school-aged children in areas of high malaria transmission, but few have investigated these issues in moderate transmission settings. This study investigates the patterns of and risks for Plasmodium falciparum and anaemia and their association with cognitive and education outcomes on the Kenyan coast, an area of moderate malaria transmission. Methods As part of a cluster randomised trial, a baseline cross-sectional survey assessed the prevalence of and risk factors for P. falciparum infection and anaemia and the associations between health status and measures of cognition and educational achievement. Results are presented for 2400 randomly selected children who were enrolled in the 51 intervention schools. Results The overall prevalence of P. falciparum infection and anaemia was 13.0% and 45.5%, respectively. There was marked heterogeneity in the prevalence of P. falciparum infection by school. In multivariable analysis, being male, younger age, not sleeping under a mosquito net and household crowding were adjusted risk factors for P. falciparum infection, whilst P. falciparum infection, being male and indicators of poor nutritional intake were risk factors for anaemia. No association was observed between either P. falciparum or anaemia and performance on tests of sustained attention, cognition, literacy or numeracy. Conclusion The results indicate that in this moderate malaria transmission setting, P. falciparum is strongly associated with anaemia, but there is no clear association between health status and education. Intervention studies are underway to investigate whether removing the burden of chronic asymptomatic P. falciparum and related anaemia can improve education outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) The literature points out the importance of social skills for the quality of interpersonal relationships, being learned, from a young age, in the interaction with other people. Children with an elaborate repertoire of social skills exhibit fewer behavioral problems and better academic performance, having more favorable perspectives in the future. When favorable, the educational practices of parents and teachers in the school and family environment are indicated as protective factors of the child development, minimizing or neutralizing risk factors. These practices should be based on a repertoire of general and educational social skills of these educational agents. However, there are still insufficient programs aimed at promoting this repertoire and, in particular, the systematic study of its impacts on the Brazilian population. Based on this, the present study had as main objective to evaluate a Social Skills Program for parents and teachers of school children, examining their effects: (1) direct, on the social repertoire of the agents education; and (2) indirect, on children in terms of social skills, behavioral problems and academic performance. After a pilot study, the program for teachers were conducted, with 18 sessions of 75 minutes in weekly frequency and the program for parents, with 17 sessions of 90 minutes, also weekly. Thirty parents, eight teachers and their children/students (N = 35) participated in four groups, one non-intervention control (CG) and three experimental groups: EG1, involving parents and teachers; EG2, teachers only; and EG3, only parents. The children's repertoire was evaluated through the Social Skills Assessment System (SSRS-BR2) and the School Performance Test (TDE); and parents e teachers was evaluated through the Social Skills Inventory (IHS-Del-Prette), Inventory of Educational Social Skills (IHSE-Parents and IHSE-Teachers) and the Parental Assessment Protocol (PAP). Statistical analyzes showed effects: (1) direct on the social repertoire of parents and teachers who participated in the sessions, when compared to the control group; and (2) indirectly on the repertoire of social skills and academic performance, greater for EG1 children, who benefited from the involvement of parents and teachers in the program. Among the teachers, there was a statistically significant change between pre and postintervention (cultivate affection, support and good mood) and a significant late effect in the follow-up in the global social skills score and in specific factors (self-defense assertiveness; affective-sexual assertiveness; reprove, restrict and correct behaviors). Among the parents, there were statistically significant differences between pre and post intervention in the global scores of social skills and educational social skills and in specific factors (assertiveness of social self-exposition; affective-sexual assertiveness; establish limits, correct and control; talk/dialogue). Finally, those children whose parents and teachers participated in the program (EG1) showed, after the intervention, a significant improvement in the overall score of self-rated social skills and academic performance and in specific indicators (assertiveness, assertiveness and social entrepreneurship; writing). The results suggest the effectiveness of the program and the importance of investing in the planning of interventions in the family and school environment as a way to contribute to the social-emotional development of schoolchildren, even as indirect targets of intervention. Programs that include triadic intervention, frequent in international research, and that advance the limitations pointed out in the present study could provide even more robust results in the area. A literatura aponta a importância das habilidades sociais para a qualidade de relacionamentos interpessoais, sendo elas aprendidas, desde tenra idade, na interação com outras pessoas. Crianças com um repertório elaborado de habilidades sociais apresentam menos problemas comportamentais e melhor desempenho acadêmico, tendo perspectivas mais favoráveis no futuro. Quando favoráveis, as práticas educativas de pais e professores no ambiente escolar e familiar são apontadas como fatores protetivos do desenvolvimento infantil, minimizando ou neutralizando fatores de risco. Essas práticas devem ser embasadas em um repertório de habilidades sociais gerais e educativas desses agentes educativos. Porém, ainda são insuficientes os programas visando a promoção desse repertório e, em particular, o estudo sistemático de seus impactos em população brasileira. Com base nisso, o presente estudo teve como objetivo principal avaliar um Programa de Habilidades Sociais para pais (PHS-Pais) e professores (PHS-Professores) de crianças escolares, examinando seus efeitos: (1) diretos, sobre o repertório social dos agentes educativos; e (2) indiretos, sobre as crianças em termos de habilidades sociais, problemas de comportamento e desempenho acadêmico. Após estudo piloto, foi conduzido o PHS-Professores, com 18 sessões de 75 minutos em periodicidade semanal e o PHS-Pais, com 17 sessões de 90 minutos, também semanais. Participaram 30 pais, oito professores e respectivos filhos/alunos (N = 35), organizados em quatro grupos, um controle de não intervenção e três experimentais: GE1, envolvendo pais e professores; GE2, somente professores; e GE3, somente pais. O repertório das crianças foi avaliado por meio do Sistema de Avaliação de Habilidades Sociais (SSRS-BR2) e do Teste de Desempenho Escolar (TDE); o dos pais e professores por meio do Inventário de Habilidades Sociais (IHS-Del-Prette), do Inventário de Habilidades Sociais Educativas (IHSE-Pais e IHSE-Prof) e do Protocolo de Avaliação Parental (PAP). As análises estatísticas realizadas evidenciaram efeitos: (1) diretos sobre o repertório social dos pais e professores que participaram das sessões, quando comparados ao grupo controle; e (2) indiretos sobre o repertório de habilidades sociais e sobre o desempenho acadêmico, maior para as crianças do GE1, que se beneficiaram do envolvimento de pais e professores no programa. Entre os professores, verificou-se mudança estatisticamente significativa entre pré e pós-intervenção (cultivar afetividade, apoio e bom humor) e um efeito tardio significativo no follow-up no escore global de habilidades sociais e em fatores específicos (assertividade de autodefesa; assertividade afetivo-sexual; reprovar, restringir e corrigir comportamentos). Entre os pais registraram-se diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre pré e pós-intervenção nos escores globais de habilidades sociais e habilidades sociais educativas e em fatores específicos (assertividade de autoexposição social; assertividade afetivo-sexual; estabelecer limites, corrigir, controlar; conversar/dialogar). Finalmente, aquelas crianças cujos pais e professores participaram do programa (GE1) mostraram, após a intervenção, melhora significativa no escore global de habilidades sociais autoavaliadas e desempenho acadêmico, e em indicadores específicos (assertividade; assertividade e desenvoltura social; escrita). Os resultados sugerem a efetividade do programa e a importância de investir no planejamento de intervenções no ambiente familiar e escolar como forma de contribuir para o desenvolvimento socioemocional de crianças escolares, mesmo enquanto alvos indiretos da intervenção. Programas que incluam intervenção triádica, frequente em pesquisas internacionais, e que avancem em relação às limitações apontadas no presente estudo poderiam fornecer resultados ainda mais robustos na área.

RESUMEN: Los comportamientos de vida sanos y limpios entre los niños en edad escolar todavía son relativamente bajos, exponiéndolos al riesgo de experimentar problemas de salud en el futuro, como la diarrea. Sin embargo, el período de los niños en edad escolar es el punto de partida para desarrollar comportamientos saludables y se convierte en un objetivo estratégico para mejorar la salud. Los niños en edad escolar están en un período de desarrollo operativo concreto para requerir métodos de educación sanitaria que puedan reflejar experiencias reales e interactivas. El estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar el efecto del sociodrama terapéutico sobre los cambios de comportamiento preventivo de la diarrea en niños en edad escolar (6-12 años). El método de estudio utilizado cuasi experimento pre-post con grupo control que consistió en dos grupos; 38 sujetos fueron como grupos de intervención y 38 sujetos fueron como grupos de control. Muestreo aleatorio multietapa utilizado para determinar el área de investigación y la escuela, mientras que la muestra del sujeto de la investigación utilizó un muestreo aleatorio simple. Los resultados mostraron que el sociodrama terapéutico se realizó significativamente en el conocimiento (valor de p = 0,000), actitud (valor de p = 0,000) y habilidades de prevención de la diarrea (valor de p = 0,001). El sociodrama terapéutico podría aplicarse como un esfuerzo para mejorar el comportamiento preventivo de la diarrea de los niños en edad escolar que podría integrarse en el servicio de enfermería escolar. ABSTRACT: Healthy and clean living behaviors among school-aged children are still relatively low, exposing them to the risk of experiencing health problems in the future, such as diarrhea. This school-age period is actually the earliest phase in which children can develop healthy behaviors, hence making this phase a strategic target for health improvements. School-aged children are in a period of concrete operational development and they require specific health education methods that can reflect real and interactive experiences. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of therapeutic sociodramatic play on diarrheal preventive behaviors among school-aged children (6-12 years). The study design was a quasi-experimental with pre- and post-tests design, involving 76 school-age children who were divided into intervention group and control group. Multistage random sampling was used to determine the research area and school where the research was conducted, while the research subject was selected using simple random sampling. The results showed that therapeutic sociodramatic play significantly affects knowledge (p value = 0.000), attitudes (p value = 0.000), and diarrheal prevention skills (p value = 0.001). The study recommends that therapeutic sociodramatic play could be applied in an effort to enhance healthy and clean living behaviors and to prevent diarrhea among school-aged children, and it could be integrated into school nursing services.

Objectives: Physical activity (PA) has been shown to have multiple health and wellness benefits, but there is no such information for adolescents with high intellectual ability (HIA). Thus, the aim of this study is to assess body composition and PA in HIA Chilean adolescents. Methods: Weight and body composition were measured by bioelectrical impedance in 73 adolescents (39 female) aged 14-18 years from the Valparaíso region of Chile. HIA was assessed via Raven's Progressive Matrices (> 75th percentile) and PA, via questionnaire. Obesity was defined as a body fat percentage (BF%) ≥ 25 (for boys) or ≥ 30 BF% (for girls). Results: Obesity prevalence was 43.59% in females and 8.82% in males. A total of 69% of adolescents performed more than two hours of weekly exercise, with the amount being greater in males. BF% and fat mass index were significantly different (p < 0.05) in adolescents who engaged in fewer than two hours of weekly exercise. On the contrary, subjects who performed more than two hours of weekly exercise exhibited higher mass muscle percentages (p < 0.01). After controlling for socioeconomic status and PA, the obesity odds ratio (OR = 7.6; 95% CI: 1.9-30.9) was significantly higher in females (p < 0.01). Conclusions: Adolescents with HIA reported elevated PA. However, obesity was more prevalent in females, who also reported less weekly PA than males. Resumen Objetivos: la actividad física (AP) ha demostrado múltiples beneficios en salud, pero no hay información en adolescentes con altas capacidades intelectuales (ACI). El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar la composición corporal y AF en adolescentes chilenos con ACI. Métodos: la composición corporal fue evaluada por bioimpedancia en 73 adolescentes (39 mujeres) de 14 a 18 años de la Región de Valparaíso, Chile. La ACI se evaluó a través del test de matrices progresivas de Raven y la AF, a través de un cuestionario. La obesidad se definió mediante el porcentaje de grasa corporal (%GC) ≥ 25 (hombres) y ≥ 30% (mujeres). Resultados: la prevalencia de obesidad fue del 43,59% en mujeres y del 8,82% en hombres. Un 69% de los adolescentes realizan más de dos horas de ejercicio semanal, siendo mayor en hombres. El %GC y el índice de masa grasa fueron significativamente diferentes (p < 0,05) en adolescentes que realizan menos dos horas de ejercicio semanal. Por el contrario, los sujetos que realizan más de dos horas de ejercicio semanal presentaron mayores porcentajes de masa muscular (p < 0,01). Después de controlar por nivel socioeconómico y AF, el odds ratio para obesidad (OR = 7,6; IC del 95%: 1,9-30,9) fue significativamente asociado a las mujeres (p < 0,01). Conclusiones: los adolescentes con ACI reportaron alta AF semanal. Sin embargo, la obesidad fue más prevalente en mujeres, que también informaron menor AF semanal.

La investigación ha confirmado la relación entre las funciones ejecutivas y el aprendizaje académico; siendo la primera una carga mayor para los niños, ya que es el resultado de un intercambio de experiencias y conocimientos entre profesores y alumnos. Los investigadores se han centrado en presentar una relación causal unidireccional. Sin embargo, si consideramos el aprendizaje como una construcción, este puede impactar y verse impactado por el desarrollo cerebral y el aprendizaje académico, suponiendo una relación bidireccional, que pocos estudios han examinado. Este artículo revisa el estado del arte de la investigación sobre la relación entre las funciones ejecutivas y el aprendizaje académico. El principal aporte fue conceptualizar y sistematizar la investigación existente sobre la relación entre las funciones ejecutivas y el aprendizaje académico, así como sus implicaciones. Esto arroja una respuesta parcial a la pregunta ¿Las funciones ejecutivas impactan el aprendizaje académico? Sin duda, las funciones ejecutivas son esenciales para los niños en edad escolar debido a su papel en el aprendizaje y el rendimiento académico. No obstante, queda sin respuesta si su influencia es solo unidireccional o si existe el potencial de una relación bidireccional. Este es un esfuerzo por encontrar otras formas de considerar la relación entre las funciones ejecutivas y el aprendizaje académico. Pocos estudios han examinado esta relación bidireccional, que requiere mayor discusión entre especialistas. Research has confirmed the relationship between executive functions and academic learning; the former being a greater burden for children, as it is the result of an interchange of experiences and knowledge between teachers and students. Researchers have focused on presenting a one directional causal relation. However, if we consider learning as a construal, it can impact and be impacted by brain development and academic learning, supposing a bidirectional relationship, which few studies have examined. This article reviews the state of the art of research on the relationship between executive functions and academic learning. The main contribution was to conceptualize and systematize the existing research on the relationship between executive functions and academic learning, as well as its implications. This yields a partial answer to the question Do executive functions impact academic learning? Undoubtedly, executive functions are essential to school-age children because of their role in academic learning and achievement. Nonetheless, whether their influence is only unidirectional or the potential of a bidirectional relationship exists remains unanswered. This is an effort to find other ways to consider the relationship between executive functions and academic learning. Few studies have examined this bidirectional relation, which requires further discussion among specialists.

- Abstract
El estado nutricional es uno de los factores principales que influye en el coeficiente intelectual de los niños que se encuentran en etapa escolar. Para demostrar ello se buscó establecer la relación entre el estado nutricional y coeficiente intelectual de los niños de 6 a 12 años de la I. E. Mateo Pumacahua – Cusco, utilizando como instrumentos validados: Test de Raven, matrices progresivas escala coloreada; y las tablas de la OMS 2007: z-T/E y z-IMC/E, en una población compuesta por 224 alumnos. Se comparan y relacionan los resultados mediante Prueba de chi cuadrado. Obteniéndose que el 7% de alumnos de 6 a 12 años presenta desnutrición crónica, el 21% presentó sobrepeso, además se encontró una relación altamente significativa entre los puntajes z-IMC/E y las edades de los niños (P<0.01), encontrándose que en el grupo etáreo de 11 a 12 años hay más niños delgados, obesos y con sobrepeso. También se encontró que en el grupo estudiado no existe relación significativa entre los puntajes z-T/E, z IMC/E y el sexo de los niños evaluados. Así mismo se obtuvo que de los 224 alumnos evaluados con el Test de Raven: Matrices Progresivas Escala Coloreada, el 11% tiene un coeficiente intelectual inferior al término medio, 1% coeficiente intelectual deficiente y 21% coeficiente intelectual término medio. Se encontró una relación altamente significativa entre el coeficiente intelectual y las edades de los alumnos (P<0.01), la cual mostró que un 3.13% tiene un rango inferior al término medio en las edades de 11 a 12 años. Se demostró que existe una relación altamente significativa entre el estado nutricional y coeficiente intelectual de los niños evaluados (P< 0.01), encontrándose que una parte importante de los niños obesos tienen rango de coeficiente inferior al término medio, mientras que los niños eutróficos tienen un coeficiente intelectual superior, superior al término medio y término medio. Además en relación a los niños con desnutrición crónica, los cuales tenían rangos d

Treball Final de Grau en Psicologia. Codi: PS1048. Curs: 2016/2017 Emotions are basic experiences of humans, which help to balance the demands of the environment and personal adjustments of the individual, based on them there are numerous scientific research, but ... What about the development of the same in childhood? , Is there any kind of difference in emotions based on age ?, and based on gender ?. In the present research we carried out a study of the positive emotions in school age children to study the possible differences of age and gender in this type of emotions. For this we passed a recently validated questionnaire, called "New Infant Questionnaire of Positive Emotions", to a group of children of school age (8-11 years of age). The results indicate that there are no age differences in the experimentation of positive emotions, neither in general nor in the different dimensions proposed in the test; But there are gender differences, always in favor of girls, in the experimentation of positive emotions, both in general and particularly in some dimensions and also there is no interaction between age and gender in regard to the experimentation of positive emotions In the sample studied, both at a general level, as a particular level, or of dimensions. Therefore, we believe that we should continue to deepen in this direction, developing evaluation systems to better discriminate the origin and development of possible gender differences throughout the early stages of life Las emociones son experiencias básicas de los seres humanos, que ayudan a equilibrar las demandas del ambiente y los ajustes propios personales del individuo, en base a ellas existen numerosas investigaciones científicas, pero… ¿Qué pasa con el desarrollo de las mismas en la infancia?, ¿Existe algún tipo de diferencias en las emociones en base a la edad?, ¿Y en base al género?. En la presente investigación realizamos un estudio de las emociones positivas en niños en edad escolar para estudiar las posibles diferencias de edad y género en este tipo de emociones. Para ello pasamos un cuestionario recientemente validado, de nombre “Nuevo Cuestionario Infantil de Emociones Positivas”, a un grupo de niños en edad escolar (8- 11 años de edad). Los resultados indican que no hay diferencias de edad en la experimentación de emociones positivas, ni a nivel general ni en las distintas dimensiones propuestas en la prueba; pero sí hay diferencias de género, a favor siempre de la niñas, en la experimentación de emociones positivas, tanto a nivel general como particularmente en algunas dimensiones y además no se observa interacción entre edad y género en lo que respecta a la experimentación de emociones positivas en la muestra estudiada, tanto a nivel general, como a nivel particular, o de dimensiones. Por tanto, creemos que sería preciso continuar profundizando en esta dirección, elaborando sistemas de evaluación que permitan discriminar mejor el origen y desarrollo de las posibles diferencias de género a lo largo de las primeras etapas de la vida.

El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo formular y elaborar una torta de plátanodiseñada a mejorar el estado nutricional, con respecto al calcio en niños de 10 años,de escuelas rurales de Colombia, evaluando la absorción y eficiencia biológica delcalcio del alimento, mediante ensayos biológicos en ratas de la raza Wistar encrecimiento. Se utilizaron dos formulaciones de tortas diferentes T1 (a base deplátano, leche en polvo, miel y especias y T2 a base de plátano, caseína y azúcar). Sedeterminó la composición centesimal, según métodos de AOAC 2000. Los valoresobtenidos fueron para T1 (g/100g): 9,69 de proteína, 10,3 de lípidos, 48,4 decarbohidratos digeribles, 2,75 de ceniza, 4,30 de Fibra, 23,2 de humedad y 480 mgde calcio.T2: 13,1 de proteína, 10,3 de lípidos, 37,9 de carbohidratos digeribles, 2,75de ceniza, 3,80 de Fibra, 32,2 de humedad y 611 mg de calcio. En el modeloexperimental, ambas formulaciones presentaron una alta absorción porcentual decalcio, y aunque la de T1 fue ligeramente superior, T2 evidenció una mayorretención de calcio que T1. The aimed of this study was to develop and produce a banana cake designed toimprove the nutritional status respect to calcium in children 10 years old of rural schools in Colombia, evaluating the absorption and biological efficiency of calciumfrom food, by biological assays in Wistar rats during growth. Two formulations ofdifferent cakes T1 (made with bananas, milk, honey and spices and T2 made withbanana, sugar and casein) were used. The percentage composition was determinedaccording to AOAC methods 2000. The values obtained were in percentage T1:protein 9.69 g, lipid 10.3g, digestible carbohydrates 48.4 g, ash 2.75 g, fiber 4.30 g,moisture 23.2 g and calcium 480mg; T2 protein 13.1 g, lipid 10.3 g , digestiblecarbohydrates 37.9 g of, ash 2.75 g, fiber 3.80 g, moisture 32.2 g and calcium 611 mg. In the experimental model, both formulations had a high percentage absorption ofcalcium, and while T1 was slightly higher, T2 showed more retention of calcium than T1.

La lactancia materna es el patrón oro para la alimentacion de los recién nacidos. Las madres y padres suelen decidir cómo van a alimentar y criar a sus hijos recién nacidos antes de su nacimiento. La información sobre la crianza y alimentación de los hijos se va adquiriendo a lo largo de la vida. En el proyecto de investigación nos hemos cuestionado qué saben los niños y niñas y los profesores que les educan, sobre lactancia y crianza así como si realizando intervenciones educativas e informativas en el ámbito educativo podrían modificarse los conocimientos erróneos que ya han adquirido, y si estas modificaciones permanecen en el tiempo.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a influência da situação de produção de textos narrativos, elaborados por crianças de 7 e 9 anos, em uma perspectiva psicogenética. Participaram deste estudo 23 alunos da primeira série e 50 da terceira. Após a escrita de uma história em situação livre, foram realizadas três sessões individuais com atividades de consciência metatextual, a saber: na sessão 1, apresentaram-se histórias curtas com suas partes constituintes marcadas em cores diferentes; na sessão seguinte, montou-se um quebra-cabeça em analogia às partes de uma história. Finalmente, houve a montagem de um baralho de história, e depois escreveu-se outra história em situação livre. Foi feita a comparação dos níveis da narrativa e características, da resolução da situação-problema e do desfecho, antes e depois da intervenção. Entre o pré e o pós-teste, os resultados da primeira série sinalizaram o aparecimento de histórias e de desfechos mais elaborados. Na terceira série, também houve aumento do número de histórias mais elaboradas, bem como da característica resolução da situação-problema, que se mostrou mais explicada. Conclui-se que as sessões de consciência metatextual aumentaram as habilidades de escrita das histórias, especialmente na terceira série, sendo mais apreciáveis nas características do que nos níveis das narrativas. The aim of this study was to analyse the production of narrative texts drew up by children aged 7 to 9. Twenty three students from the first grade and fifty from the third grade participated in this study. After writing a free story, three individual sections on metatextual consciousness activities were performed: in the first section, short stories marked with different colours were presented; on the next section, a puzzle game was assembled in analogy to the parts of a story, finally, there was an assembly of a pack of cards of a story. Later, a free story was written. A comparison of the levels of narrative and characteristics was made, as well as of the resolution of the problem and of the outcome before and after the intervention. Between the pre and the post test, the results of the first grade indicated the appearance of more elaborated stories. On the third grade there was an increase on the number of elaborated stories and the characteristics of the problems were also more detailed. We can conclude that these metatextual sections increased the abilities in writing stories, especially in the third grade, being more appreciated by the characteristics than by the levels of narrative. El objetivo de este trabajo ha sido analizar la influencia de la situación de producción de textos narrativos, elaborados por niños con edad entre 07 y 09 años, en una perspectiva psicogenética. Han participado de este estudio 23 alumnos del primer grado y 50 del tercer grado. Luego de la escrita de una historia en situación libre, han sido llevadas a cabo tres sesiones individuales con actividades de conciencia meta-textual, descriptas a continuación: en la sesión 01, se han presentado historias cortas con sus partes constituyentes realzadas en colores distintos; en la sesión siguiente, se ha montado un rompecabezas en analogía a las partes de una historia. Finalmente, se ha hecho el montaje de una baraja de historia, y luego se ha escrito otra historia en situación libre. Se ha hecho una comparación de los niveles de la narrativa y características, de la resolución de la situación-problema y del cierre, antes y después de la intervención. Entre el pre-teste y el pos-teste, los resultados del primer grado han señalado el aparecimiento de historias y de cierres más elaborados. Asimismo, en el tercer grado ha habido un aumento del número de historias más elaboradas, así como de la característica resolución de la situación-problema, que se ha mostrado más explicada. Se concluye que las sesiones de conciencia meta-textual han aumentado las habilidades de escrita de las historias, especialmente en el tercer grado, y son más apreciables en las características que en los niveles de las narrativas.

Objetivou-se analisar a coparentalidade em genitores de bebês de idade entre três e oito meses, com indicativos de dificuldades de inserção em escola de Educação Infantil. Realizou-se um estudo exploratório e descritivo, com método de análise de dados qualitativo. Quatro pares de genitores, com idades entre 26 e 40 anos, cujos bebês ingressaram na escola de Educação Infantil logo após o término da licença-maternidade, responderam a um questionário de dados sociodemográficos e a uma entrevista semiestruturada. Os resultados apontam reflexos de características da atualidade neste momento, como as dificuldades das famílias em contar com uma rede de apoio e a valorização das necessidades ou interesses das mães em ajudar na renda familiar, que justificam o ingresso precoce dos bebês na escola. Quanto à coparentalidade, destaca-se entre os genitores uma divisão efetiva de tarefas e o compartilhamento de cuidados com os filhos, mas no processo de inserção escolar ainda são as mães as principais participantes, o que mostra uma heterogeneidade nesses processos. This study aimed to analyze the co-parenting in parents of babies aged between three and eight months, indicative of insertion difficulties in school for early childhood education. We conducted an exploratory and descriptive study with qualitative data analysis method. Four pairs of parents, aged 26 and 40, whose babies entered school for early childhood education right after the end of maternity leave, answered a sociodemographic questionnaire and a semi-structured interview. The results show characteristic of modern reflections at this point, as the difficulties of families to rely on a network of support and appreciation of the needs or interests of mothers to help the family income, justifying the early entry of babies at school. As for co-parenting, stands out among the parents an effective division of labor and the care sharing with their children, but the school inclusion process are still mothers major participants, which shows a heterogeneity in these processes.

Neste trabalho foram apresentadas as características psicométricas das versões da Escala de Avaliação da Comunicação na Parentalidade (COMPA): versão parental, versão adolescentes (12-16 anos) e versão crianças (7-11 anos). Este instrumento tem por objetivo avaliar as perceções de progenitores e filhos sobre a comunicação que mantêm. O estudo foi realizado com uma amostra de 803 progenitores e 619 filhos da população portuguesa. Os resultados da análise de componentes principais revelaram uma estrutura de cinco fatores para a versão parental (expressão afetiva/suporte emocional, α:.821; disponibilidade parental para a comunicação, α:.732; metacomunicação, α:.725; partilha/confiança de progenitores para filhos, α:.753; partilha/confiança de filhos para progenitores, α:.615) e versão adolescentes (disponibilidade parental para a comunicação, α:.865; partilha/confiança de filhos para progenitores, α:.873; expressão afetiva/suporte emocional, α:.838; metacomunicação, α:.805; padrões negativos de comunicação, α:.650) e de dois fatores para a versão das crianças (disponibilidade parental para a comunicação, α:.842; expressão afetiva/suporte emocional, α:.784). Esta estrutura fatorial exploratória foi confirmada pela análise de equações estruturais. Os níveis de consistência interna revelaram-se bons para fins de investigação e clínicos. Este trabajo presenta las características psicométricas de las versiones de la Escala de Evaluación de la Comunicación en la Parentalidad (COMPA): versión parental, versión para adolescentes (12-16 años) y versión para niños (7-11 años). Esta es una prueba que tiene el objetivo de evaluar las percepciones de padres e hijos sobre la comunicación que mantienen. El estudio se realizó con una muestra de 803 padres y 619 hijos de la población portuguesa. Los resultados del análisis de componentes principales han revelado una estructura de cinco factores para la versión parental (expresión afectiva/soporte emocional, α.821; disponibilidad parental para la comunicación, α.732; metacomunicación, α:.725; compartir/confianza de los padres en los hijos, α:.753; compartir/confianza de los hijos en los padres, α:.615) y para la versión de adolescentes (disponibilidad parental para la comunicación, α:.865; compartir/confianza de los hijos en los padres, α:.873; expresión afectiva/soporte emocional, α:.838; metacomunicación, α:.805; patrones negativos de comunicación, α:.650) y de dos factores para la versión de los niños (disponibilidad parental para la comunicación, α:.842; expresión afectiva/soporte emocional, α:.784). Esta estructura factorial exploratoria fue confirmada mediante un análisis de ecuaciones estructurales. Los niveles de consistencia interna se han revelado buenos para el propósito de investigación y evaluación clínica. The main goal of this study was the presentation of the psychometric characteristics of the Scale of Parenting Communication (COMPA): parental version, adolescent version (12-16 years old) and children version (7-11 years old). This instrument has the purpose of evaluating the percepction of parents and children regarding their communication. The sample was composed of 803 parents and 619 children sampled from a Portuguese population. The results of an exploratory factor analysis revealed a five factor structure for the parental version (emotional support/affective expression, α:.821; parental availability to communication, α:.732; metacommunication, α:.725; parental confidence/sharing, α:.753; children confidence/sharing α:.615) and for the adolescent version (parental availability to communication, α:.865; children confidence/sharing, α:.873; emotional support/affective expression, α:.838; metacommunication, α:.805; negative communication patterns, α:.650) and a two factor structure for the children version (parental availability to communication, a: .842; emotional support/affective expression, α:.784). This factorial structure was confirmed by structural equations analysis. The levels of internal consistency of COMPA seem to be appropriate for research and clinical use.
