Results suggest the efficacy of a brief psychoeducational intervention program for increasing teacher awareness and knowledge about ADHD and LD. Future studies are warranted to confirm the efficacy and evaluate the long-term impact of this intervention.
OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste trabalho é comparar o perfil dos idosos que participaram de sessões de aconselhamento após a aquisição da prótese auditiva em um centro auditivo de Curitiba (PR), com aqueles que não retornaram após a primeira ou segunda sessão de aconselhamento. MÉTODOS: Fizeram parte deste estudo 45 idosos com presbiacusia que adquiriram prótese auditiva em um centro auditivo de Curitiba (PR). A amostra foi dividida em dois grupos: o Grupo 1, Controle, composto por 30 idosos que participaram de cinco sessões de aconselhamento após o recebimento da prótese, e o Grupo 2, Experimental, formado por 15 idosos que participaram somente da primeira e/ou segunda reunião de aconselhamento. Foram utilizadas as perguntas do protocolo de entrevista inicial, para o levantamento dos dados. RESULTADOS: Foram encontradas diferenças entre o perfil do Grupo 1 e do 2. Dos 11 aspectos levantados, houve diferenças em oito deles, no que se refere a: antecedentes familiares de perda auditiva, usuários antigos de aparelhos auditivos, grau da perda, estado emocional, relacionamento familiar, vida social, privações decorrentes da deficiência e habilidades de manuseio da prótese auditiva. CONCLUSÕES: O estudo mostra que o grupo que participou de todas as sessões tem um perfil diferente daquele que só participou do primeiro e/ou segundo encontro, sendo que os aspectos levantados parecem ter influenciado na decisão dos integrantes do segundo grupo de continuar as sessões de aconselhamento.
A violência é globalmente reconhecida como um problema de saúde pública. Em 2002, a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) deu destaque para o abuso e para a negligência por seu caráter crônico e pelos danos psicológicos, sociais e injúria física que geram, sendo as crianças frequentemente vitimizadas. Este artigo apresenta os diferentes tipos de maus-tratos infantis, com enfoque principal na síndrome de Munchausen por procuração, visto apresentar a característica peculiar de envolver três entidades, mesmo que de forma inadvertida: o médico, o cuidador/perpetrador e a criança/vítima.
Background Risky media use in terms of accumulating too much time in front of screens and usage before bedtime in early childhood is linked to developmental delays, reduced sleep quality, and unhealthy media use in later childhood and adulthood. For this reason, we examine patterns of media use in pre-school children and the extent to which child and family characteristics contribute to media use during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods A cross-sectional study of digital media use by Canadian preschool-aged children (mean age = 3.45, N = 316) was conducted at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic between April and August of 2020. Parents completed a questionnaire and 24-h recall diary in the context of an ongoing study of child digital media use. From these responses we estimated hours of average daily screen time, screen time in the past 24 h, average daily mobile device use, and media use before bedtime. Parents also answered questions about their child (i.e., age, sex, temperament), family characteristics (parental mediation style, parental screen time, education, income), and contextual features of the pandemic (ex., remote work, shared childcare). Daycare closures were directly assessed using a government website. Results Our results indicate that 64% of preschoolers used more than 2 h of digital media hours/day on average during the pandemic. A majority (56%) of children were also exposed to media within the hour before bedtime. Logistic and multinomial regressions revealed that child age and temperament, restrictive parental mediation, as well as parent digital media use, education, satisfaction with the division of childcare, remote work, and number of siblings and family income were all correlates of risky digital media use by preschoolers. Conclusions Our results suggest widespread risky media use by preschoolers during the pandemic. Parenting practices that include using more restrictive mediation strategies may foster benefits in regulating young children’s screen time.
