Compared with adolescents without the experience of parental divorce or separation, adolescents with such experiences displayed poorer wellbeing and academic adjustment as well as higher risk behavior. At Wave 5, both PYD and family functioning positively predicted academic adjustment but negatively predicted study stress. Longitudinally, Wave 1 PYD predicted school adjustment at Wave 3 and perception of the new secondary school curriculum at Wave 5. While Wave 4 PYD had an influence on all academic-related measures at Wave 5, Wave 4 family functioning predicted school conduct at Wave 5 only. The protective role of PYD and family functioning in academic resilience in adolescents growing up in non-intact families is discussed.","PeriodicalId":50278,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Disability and Human Development","volume":"15 1","pages":"443 - 453"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/ijdhd-2017-5011","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67002928","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}

During the high school years (Secondary 1 to Secondary 6), participants responded to measures of social competence, socio-demographic characteristics (gender, family intactness and economic disadvantage) and family processes (father-child relational quality, mother-child relational quality and family functioning). Results showed that social competence dropped across the six waves. While gender, father-child subsystem quality, mother-child subsystem quality, and family functioning significantly predicted social competence at the initial level, rate of decrease in social competence was greater for adolescents who came from intact families, had better mother-child subsystem quality, and reported better family functioning. Economic disadvantage was the only factor that did not affect the development of social competence in adolescents.","PeriodicalId":50278,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Disability and Human Development","volume":"15 1","pages":"423 - 432"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/ijdhd-2017-5009","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67002742","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}

One hundred and fifty freshmen and 150 sophomores at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) completed the CLA+ in 2013–2014 academic year. Results showed that sophomores had better performance in CLA+ than freshmen on problem solving, effective communication, and critical thinking. Compared with freshmen, fewer sophomores were classified as ‘Below Basic’ at mastering the related skills. The findings support the effectiveness of the new 4-year undergraduate curriculum, particularly the General University Requirements, in promoting students’ development in desired graduate attributes. However, students’ language barrier might affect their CLA+ scores which led to the small effect size in the differences between freshmen and sophomores.","PeriodicalId":50278,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Disability and Human Development","volume":"15 1","pages":"331 - 337"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/ijdhd-2015-6001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67002186","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}

This is the reason why we here propose to examine the effects of explosive strength training on body composition, functional performance and capillary glucose in old women. Methods: Sixty healthy women (59.45±6.43 years) who volunteered for the study and were divided to either a jump group (JG), concurrent jumps and high velocity movements on multi station machines group (JMG) or control group (CG) for 22 weeks. JG and JMG trained three times a week during a 22-week period, and CG performed only recreational activities by themselves. Body composition and functionality tests were applied before and after the training program and capillary glucose was taken before and after every functional testing. Results: There were differences in the percentage of body fat (JG vs. JMG vs. CG, p=0.001), muscle mass (JG vs. JMG vs. CG p=0.05), explosive strength (JG vs. JMG vs. CG, p=0.001), shuttle run test 30 m (JG vs. JMG vs. CG, p=0.002), velocity-agility 30 m (JG vs. JMG vs. CG, p=0.02) and glycemic (JG vs. JMG vs. CG, p=0.01) with positive modifications in the strength training groups. Conclusion: The concurrent explosive jumps and high velocity movements on multi station machines optimize positive changes in body composition, capillary glucose and functionality compared with explosive jumps training alone.","PeriodicalId":50278,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Disability and Human Development","volume":"15 1","pages":"251 - 259"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/ijdhd-2015-0011","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67001692","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}
