Tässä tutkimuksessa selvitetään, ovatko 18 ja 36 kuukauden ikäisenä arvioidut sosioemotionaalisen kehityksen vaikeudet yhteydessä vuorovaikutukselliseen, häiritsevään tai vetäytyvään leikkikäyttäytymiseen neljävuotiaana. Tutkimus on osa Hyvän kasvun avaimet -seurantatutkimusta (ks. Lagström 2013), jossa on mukana noin 1820 lasta Varsinais-Suomen sairaanhoitopiiriin kuuluvista kunnista. Tutkimuksessa käytetyt mittarit ovat BITSEA (the Brief Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assesment) ja PIPPS (the Penn Interactive Peer Play Scale). Standardoitu BITSEA on tarkoitettu 12 kuukauden iästä 35 kuukauden 30 päivän ikäisten lasten sosioemotionaalisen kompetenssin, viiveen tai vaikeuksien sekä käyttäytymisongelmien selvittämiseen. PIPPSin avulla puolestaan arvioidaan lapsen sosiaalista kompetenssia leikin aikana. Kummankin mittarin muuttujista muodostettiin summamuuttujat, joiden välisiä yhteyksiä tutkittiin riippumattomien otosten t-testin ja khin neliötestin avulla. Tutkimustulosten mukaan tilastollisesti merkitsevä yhteys on näkyvissä sosioemotionaalisten vaikeuksien ja häiritsevän leikkikäyttäytymisen sekä vetäytyvän leikkikäyttäytymisen välillä. Tämän tutkimuksen mukaan tilastollisesti merkitsevää yhteyttä sosioemotionaalisten vaikeuksien ja vuorovaikutuksellisen leikin välillä ei ole 18 kuukauden ikäisillä, vaikka tämä yhteys on näkyvissä 36 kuukauden ikäisillä lapsilla. Mikäli lapsen sosioemotionaalinen kehitys on arvioitu iänmukaiseksi 18 kuukauden iässä, se näyttää olevan iänmukainen myös 36 kuukauden iässä. Sukupuolen yhteys leikkikäyttäytymiseen näkyy siten, että tyttöjen leikki on tilastollisesti merkitsevästi enemmän vuorovaikutuksellista kuin poikien, kun taas poikien leikkikäyttäytyminen on enemmän häiritsevää kuin tyttöjen. Aiemmissa tutkimuksissa (Pihlaja 2003, Laine & Neitola 2005) on tullut esiin, että sosioemotionaalisen kehityksen vaikeudet hankaloittavat lapsen vertaissuhteiden luomista, ryhmään tai leikkiin liittymistä. Vaikeudet ilmenevät sekä sisäisinä että ulkoisina aiheuttaen myös torjuntaa. Sosiaalisen kompetenssin kehityksessä tärkeä rooli onkin kaverisuhteilla ja leikillä, jota tulisi käyttää positiivisen vuorovaikutuksen

Artigo teórico: O presente artigo tem como objetivo permitir uma visão global sobre as circunstâncias que podem influenciar, positiva ou negativamente, a vida das crianças e apresentar programas desenhados para promover o seu correto desenvolvimento, mesmo em casos menos favoráveis. Para isto, são revistos os conceitos mais importantes associados às noções de risco, perigo, proteção e resiliência, sintetizadas as relações que estes estabelecem entre si e abordados quais os principais contextos nos quais o profissional pode intervir. Este trabalho foca-se principalmente nas crianças da cidade de Tijuana, pelo que é realizado um trabalho de comparação de estatísticas oficiais entre Portugal e México (quando aplicável, cingido ao estado da Baja Califórnia) de modo a contextualizar os diferentes perigos e proteções que as respetivas culturas providenciam. Para concluir, são apresentados alguns exemplos de intervenções recentes que visam promover a resiliência através de abordagens distintas e em contextos culturais diversos, de modo a deixar no leitor uma ideia das possibilidades e da importância da intervenção nesta área. Artigo teórico-prático: O presente artigo tem como objetivo avaliar o impacto de uma adaptação do programa “Ultrapassar Dificuldades e Vencer Desafios: Manual de Promoção da Resiliência na Adolescência” numa população de crianças em situação de risco, do 1.º ao 6.º ano de escolaridade, da cidade de Tijuana (Baja California, México). Foram realizadas intervenções com dois grupos de crianças que se encontravam em contexto familiar e com um grupo de crianças em contexto institucional. As sessões realizadas, que adaptaram o programa dando-lhe um enfoque psicomotor, compreenderam a duração total de 20 horas e foram realizadas nas instituições de ensino. A intervenção demonstrou ter alguns efeitos positivos ao nível da auto-perceção de competências relacionadas com a resiliência, bem como um efeito de diminuição de alguns fatores de riscos intra-individuais. Na ótica dos prestadores de cuidados, foram ainda encontrados resultados significativos ao nível da diminuição da hiperatividade, dos problemas de comportamento e do total de dificuldades (avaliados pelo instrumento Strenghts and Difficulties Questionnaire). Este programa apresenta assim resultados encorajadores, num contexto diferente ao que serviu de substrato para o desenho do programa, e reforça a noção de que as competências sociais e emocionais são vitais para o correto desenvolvimento infantil em qualquer cultura.

Os pais e os professores vivenciam o quotidiano das crianças e constituem-se como observadores significativos (Guaragna e tal., 2005; Pires et al, 2008) e as suas perceções acerca dos filhos e alunos influenciam os comportamentos destes (Zirkel, 2002). Porém, as características das crianças parecem influir na perceção de pais e na perceção de professores (Pires et al., 2008). As crianças com DA apresentam características sócio emocionais próprias: instabilidade emocional, pouca tolerância à frustração (Fonseca, 2008) e dificuldades na interação social (Framer et al., 2008). As competências sociais e emocionais são muito relevantes no processo adaptativo da criança e contribuem para a consecução de objetivos sociais (Candeias, 2008; Anderson-Butcher et al., 2008; Buckley & Saarnni, 2006; Saarni, 2002). Neste contexto, considerando o papel especial dos pais e professores no processo desenvolvimental das crianças com dificuldades de aprendizagem (DA), desenvolvemos um estudo que investigou a perceção de 37 pais e 66 professores acerca das competências sócio emocionais de crianças entre os 6 e 11 anos com DA. No estudo foram utilizados o Inventário do Quociente Emocional Bar-On, (EQ-i: Pa, versão original de Bar-On & Parker, 2004) nas suas versões para pais e para professores, e a Prova de Avaliação da Competência Social (PACS-6/11, Candeias et al., 2008; Candeias, 2008b), para avaliar, respetivamente, a perceção sobre a inteligência emocional e sobre a competência social. Os principais resultados sugerem que os pais avaliam mais positivamente as competências emocionais das crianças e que a avaliação das competências sociais dos pais é semelhante à dos docentes /ABSTRACT: Parents and teachers are significant observers and participants in every day’s children's life's and their perceptions about their sons and pupils can influence their on behavior (Zirkel, 2002). However, children’s characteristics can influence parent’s perceptions and teacher’s perceptions (Pires et a/., 2008). Children with learning disabilities (LD) have singular social-emotional characteristics: emotional instability, low tolerance to frustant events (Fonseca, 2008) and difficulties in social interactions (Framer et al., 2008). Social and emotional competences are relevant in children's adaptation process and contribute to the fulfillemente of social goals (Candeias, 2008; Anderson-Butcher et a/., 2008; Buckley & Saarnni, 2006; Saarni, 2002). ln this context, considering teachers’ and parent’s special role throughout the growing process, we developed a study that investigated the perception of 37 parents and 66 teachers about the social-emotional competences of children’s (with ages between 6 and 11 years) with LO. Results suggests that (a) parent’s perception of emotional competence has higher values, (b) there is no significate differences between parents and teacher’s perception about social competence.

The present study examined the longer-term implications of adolescent positive mental health for successful young adult transitions. Positive mental health in adolescence was defined by indicators roughly corresponding to Seligman’s positive psychology PERMA framework (positive emotional experiences, engagement, relationships, purpose, and accomplishment), with the addition of health. Data were drawn from one of Australia’s longest running studies of social and emotional development (Australian Temperament Project, est. 1983, N = 2443), which has followed a large representative community sample from infancy to 27–28 years of age. In the analyzed sample of n = 999, positive mental health at 15–16 years was associated with indicators of career progression (educational attainment and perceived competence) and taking on citizenship responsibilities (volunteering and civic activities) over a decade later at 27–28 years. Mental health problems in adolescence were more relevant to establishing romantic partnerships in young adulthood: adolescent antisocial behaviors predicted higher likelihood of being in a relationship, while depressive symptoms predicted lower quality partnerships. The results suggest that successful transitions into young adult roles and responsibilities may be facilitated by targeted mental health promotion interventions designed to both foster positive mental health and address mental health difficulties in adolescence.

AIMS: To determine 'hypothetical willingness' to initiate insulin, and identify associated factors, among adults with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in primary care for whom insulin is clinically indicated.

METHODS: Eligible participants were adults with T2DM with an HbA1c ≥7.5% (58mmol/mol) and prescribed maximum oral hypoglycaemic agents. A total of 261 participants were recruited from 74 Victorian general practices: mean age 62±10 years; 39% (n=103) women; diabetes duration 10±6 years; HbA1c 9.0±1.3% (75±14mmol/mol). Data collected by the Stepping Up Study: demographic and clinical characteristics, 'willingness' to initiate insulin, insulin appraisals, depressive symptoms, and diabetes-related distress. A multinomial regression investigated predictors of 'willingness'.

RESULTS: Nineteen percent (n=50) were 'very willing' to initiate insulin, if recommended. The final regression model (R(2)=.44, χ(2)(12) 145.91, p<.001) demonstrated higher socioeconomic status and less negative attitudes to insulin were associated with increased willingness to initiate insulin.

CONCLUSIONS: Among adults with T2DM for whom insulin is clinically indicated, only one in five are 'very willing' to begin insulin therapy. Independent of demographics, clinical factors and emotional wellbeing, insulin appraisals were associated with 'willingness'. This study highlights the importance of addressing attitudinal barriers to insulin therapy among adults with T2DM in primary care to improve insulin receptiveness.

Children and young people have become one of the most important populations for the prevention of gender-based violence. The unacceptably high rates of gender-based violence, in particular, violence against women and their children, are well established and there is a clear opportunity to change the story for future generations via the education system. There is no single cause of gender-based violence, however, the latest international evidence shows that it is primarily driven by a range of social norms, institutional structures, and organizational or community practices relating to gender inequality. Gender inequality manifests in every aspect of life, from our relationships through to our institutions, including schools. Shifting the pattern of violence will require cultural transformation- and new research shows that this change is possible. Governments have seized this opportunity, and through the Australian Curriculum, schools have been directed to consider their role in the prevention of gender-based violence through the incorporation of Respectful Relationships Education. Schools play a central role in the intellectual, social and emotional development of children and young people. The education system sets the foundation for creating future generations of successful learners, confident and creative individuals, and active and informed citizens. Recent international evidence shows that the impact of school based Respectful Relationships Education – if implemented according to good practice standards – can be profound. Schools are ‘mini communities’ where respect and equality can be modelled to help shape positive attitudes and behaviours at an early stage of life. As workplaces and community hubs, schools have spheres of influence which extend to a workforce of over 40,000 teaching and non-teaching staff in Victorian schools, and into every Victorian community. As such, their reach and potential to drive cultural change to prevent gender-based violenceis significant. This report presents the findings of the Respectful Relationships Education in Schools (RREiS) pilot as one of the first evaluations in Australia to examine the impact of Respectful Relationships Education across the whole school – from the classroom, through to the staff room and broader school culture and ethos.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of multiple actors in the value creation process for a preventative health service, and observe the subsequent impact on key service outcomes of satisfaction and customer behaviour intentions to use a preventative health service again in the future. Design/methodology/approach An online self-completion survey of Australian women (n=797) was conducted to test the proposed framework in the context of a free, government-provided breastscreening service. Data were analysed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). Findings The findings indicate that functional and emotional value are created from organisational and customer resources. These findings indicate that health service providers and customers are jointly responsible for the successful creation of value, leading to desirable outcomes for all stakeholders. Practical implications The results highlight to health professionals the aspects of service that can be managed in order to create value with target audiences. The findings also indicate the importance of the resources provided by users in the creation of value, signifying the importance of customer education and management. Originality/value This study provides a significant contribution to social marketing through the provision of an empirically validated model of value creation in a preventative health service. The model demonstrates how the creation and provision of value can lead to the achievement of desirable social behaviours - a key aim of social marketing.
