Lack of balance in the sources of self-knowledge is considered to be a significant factor in development of social anxiety among adolescents with physical-motor disabilities. We aimed in this study to examine the importance of utilizing the sources of self-knowledge by adolescents with physical-motor disabilities and its relationship with social anxiety disorder among this population; therefore, the goal of the present study was to explore the role of sources of selfknowledge in predicting social anxiety among adolescents with by adolescents with physical-motor disabilities. This was a descriptive-correlational study. The statistical population included all middle and high school students with physical-motor disabilities in the school year 2016-2017. All the students in this population (n=126; 68 boys, 58 girls) were selected as the study sample. The Results indicated that Equality of variances (P ≥ 0.05) and normality presumptions were established by the results of Levene's test and Shapiro Wilk test, respectively (P ≥ 0.05), therefore, parametric tests were used, and given that a correlational and prediction design was used, Pearson’s correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis using the Enter method, were used to analyze the data. According to Pearson’s correlation results, self-observation, social feedback, and social comparison were positively correlated with social anxiety in adolescents with physical-motor disabilities. In addition, the regression analysis to predict social anxiety based on the sources of self-knowledge indicated that self-observation and social comparison were significant predictors of social anxiety in adolescents with physical-motor disabilities, however, social feedback was not a significant predictor. Identifying the sources of self-knowledge underlying social anxiety is an important approach that can be used by consultants and psychologists trying to improve the mental health of adolescents with physical-motor disabilities.","PeriodicalId":90208,"journal":{"name":"Journal of child and adolescent behavior","volume":"19 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90339955","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 aim of this study is to investigate and compare eating behaviors in hyperactive – attention deficit children with healthy children in Kerman.Method: The investigated population in this study was 80 children including 40 healthy children and 40 hyperactive – attention deficit children that their weight, height, body mass index and information related to their eating behaviors were measured and recorded in children by using food behaviors questionnaire.Results: Mean body mass index in the whole population was 16.9 ± 3.7 Kg/m2 that was 17.48 ± 4.05 in hyperactive – attention deficit children and 15.96 ± 3.29 in healthy children. There was a significant relationship between body mass index and the presence of this disorder in the investigated children, so that, the mean body mass index was higher in children with this disorder. Weight loss prevalence in the whole investigated population was 19.5% that 7.3% was related to hyperactive children and 12.2% healthy children. Overweight prevalence in the whole population was 12.2% that 6.1% was related to both hyperactive – attention deficit and healthy children. Obesity prevalence was 17.1% in the whole population that 13.4% of it was related to hyperactive children and 3.7% of it to healthy children. There was a significant difference between the two groups regarding eating behaviors, moderate eating behavior in hyperactive – lack of concentration children, fast eating behavior, low eating in fatigue time and activity rate. There was no significant difference between eating behaviors and weight indices.Discussion and conclusion: Considering that the specific dietary and eating behaviors were higher in obese and low weight children with significant difference, investigating eating behaviors in children with deviations from normal weight and BMI must be a part of the comprehensive assessment and treatment program for such children to prevent its negative consequences on health in the next period of life by intervening in a timely manner.","PeriodicalId":90208,"journal":{"name":"Journal of child and adolescent behavior","volume":"16 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85473027","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}

In the second a distributor (the ‘equal’) gives one cherry to each receiver, and left one for himself, while the other (the ‘DI-unequal’) gives two cherries to one receiver and one cherry to another receiver, creating a state of disadvantageous inequity. In the third experiment a distributor (the ‘equal’) gives two cherries to each receiver over while the other (the ‘DI-unequal’) gives one cherry to each receiver and keeps two to themselves, creating a state of disadvantageous inequity where the distributor has more than receivers.

Studies made by BlinnPike, et al. [2] have shown that the main criteria for diagnosing a gambling addiction among teenagers were: engagement in illegal acts, loss of control, tolerance and lies. The observable behavior of young gamblers masks their hidden feelings of inferiority, insecurity and inadequacy, which is why pathological gamblers make many friends in front of whom they show off, given that their low level of self-esteem goes back to their childhood, when their parents’ lack of appreciation for them led them to think that life brings no joy and that they should seek their fulfillment via gambling [3].","PeriodicalId":90208,"journal":{"name":"Journal of child and adolescent behavior","volume":"181 1","pages":"1-2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80214486","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}

Findings indicated that participants were more engaged and used more psychological state terms to describe characters’ points of view by the end of the program. Thematic analysis of transcripts also identified a number of changes in participants' perspective taking behaviors over time, including improved ability to (a) focus on characters’ perspectives as opposed to their own, (b) differentiate between thoughts and feelings, (c) engage in increasingly complex discussions of characters’ points of view and (d) respond to and build on one another’s comments.

Contributing factors, such as age, gender, ethnicity, sleep issues, or any psychological stressors placing adolescents at higher risk of either suicidal ideations or attempts were examined. \u0000Methods: A chart review was performed of 205 pediatric patients (163 females) aged 10 to 17 years who attended the outpatient pediatric pain clinic between 2013 and 2015. Data were collected and underwent statistical analysis to determine the strength of the correlations between the contributing factors and suicidal ideations and attempts. \u0000Results: We compared the resulting data with data from the Centers for Disease Control regarding suicidal ideations and attempts in adolescents. The frequency of suicidal ideations in these patients was 59/205 (28.8%). History of being bullied, female gender, recent breakup, family conflict, prior psychological interventions, depression or anxiety, and history of substance abuse showed statistically significant associations with suicidal ideations. The frequency of suicidal attempts in these patients was 20/205 (9.8%). In patients aged 14 to 17 years, history of psychological intervention and anxiety or depression showed statistically significant associations with suicidal attempts. \u0000Conclusions: This analysis of factors that influence risk of suicidal ideations and attempts in the adolescent population with chronic pain will help physicians identify these risk factors in their patients and emphasize the importance of preventive measures.","PeriodicalId":90208,"journal":{"name":"Journal of child and adolescent behavior","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77754114","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}
