The study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of awareness program and knowledge of substance abuse among adolescent boys. Adolescence is a fluctuating period wherein they love to do things as they wish and something that gives them a thrill without reasoning and hence they need to be guided. Determine the knowledge and find the effectiveness of an awareness program on substance abuse and its consequences among the adolescent boys. Find the association between the post test knowledge scores and the selected variables like age, gender, type of family, place of residence, living with, monthly income of parents, education of parents, religion, family history of substance abuse and socio-economic status. A per-test post-test design was used. 60 students from higher secondary school students was selected by the pretest level of knowledge, shows that in the pretest, 28(46.6%) had poor knowledge, 24(40%) had average knowledge, and 8 (13.3%) had good knowledge. In posttest knowledge, 32(53.3%) had average knowledge and 28 (46.6%) had good knowledge regarding substance abuse and its consequences among adolescent boys. the pretest mean score of knowledge among adolescent boys was 4.31 with standard deviation 1.61 and the post test mean score was 3.24 with standard deviation 0.93. The calculated paired ‘t’ t est value of t=9.9371 was found to be statistically highly significant at p < 0.001 level. This clearly infers there is significant improvement in the post test level of knowledge regarding substance abuse and its consequences among adolescent boys. The study indicates that the awareness program helps students to gain knowledge and helps in enlightening their future.","PeriodicalId":413423,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Psychiatric Nursing","volume":"163 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114735614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first and most critical aspect is the cognitive ability. Cognitive ability can become the basis of all input to be processed in the children's mind, thus its development will affect the children's ability to absorb anything from their surroundings. This article will discuss about learning activities which are effective to improve early childhood cognitive development. The discussion reveals that children in their early age are more active and effective in activities which are designed as games and will result more in their development as they are engaged in social interaction. Some games are proposed as alternatives for the children and parents to conduct and to be involved in.","PeriodicalId":413423,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Psychiatric Nursing","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116001521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The emphasis on child development has been on improving the quality of services under Integrated Child Development Service.Methods and Materials: A non-experimental survey approach with comparative research design. The sample consisted 60 preschool children aged between 3 to 6 years under the ICDS and Non-ICDS schools were selected by purposive sampling technique in Abinav Children's Academy School, Balawala, Anangwadi Center in Kuanwala and Doiwala at Dehradun. Data was collected by using anthropometric measurements and structured observational checklist.Results: There was significant difference statistically, between the nutritional status of preschool children of ICDS School, majority of 56.7% preschool school were healthy and least number of 43.3% preschool children were underweight whereas in Non-ICDS School majority of 86.7% preschool children were healthy and least number of 13.3% were underweight. The data revealed that the obtained t-value is greater than the table value at 0.05 levels therefore, there is significant difference in overall nutritional status of preschool children under ICDS and Non-ICDS Schools. The obtained chi-square value for selected demographic variables is greater than the table value at 0.05level of significance. Hence, research hypothesis is accepted and null hypothesis is rejected. Conclusion: The investigator had analyzed the data that, among 30 preschool children under ICDS and 30 preschool children under Non-ICDS, the comparison of nutritional status for both groups by observational checklist, the mean of overall nutrition status in ICDS children is higher than Non-ICDS children. Hence, the study concludes that, the nutritional statuses of children under Non- ICDS School were well nourished than the children under ICDS School.","PeriodicalId":413423,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Psychiatric Nursing","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127595589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
