The Attitudes of Blue Collar Adolescents Towards Employment of Women and Child Rearing PracticesMorgan, Blain Richard 01 May 1970 (has links)
Purpose was to collect and sample the attitudes of "blue collar" adolescents toward the employment of women and child rearing practices. Data were from 304 adolescents whose father s fit the requirements of being "blue collar." A questionnaire was administered that asked for attitudes and reactions to questions related to the employment of a woman through the normal stages of a family cycle and for attitudes related to child rearing practices.
The attitudes of the "blue collar" adolescents were then compared to findings recorded in a similar study that dealt with the attitudes of rural adolescents toward the employment of women. It was hypothesized that attitudes toward the employment of women would be influenced by the age and sex of the adolescents of the ''blue collar" family; that the attitudes of the adolescent would be influenced by t he occupation and employment history of his mother and that the attitudes of the adolescents from the "blue collar" family would be different from those of adolescents in a rural environment. The hypotheses were s upported by the data from this study. With respect to child rearing practices, the females have much more positive attitudes toward child rearing practices than was true of the males.

The effect of a two-week sensory diet on infants with Regulatory Sensory Processing DisorderJorge, Jacqueline 19 March 2013 (has links)
This research aimed to determine the effect of educating parents on Regulatory
Sensory Processing Disorder (RSPD) and implementing an Ayers-SI sensory diet
over a two-week period. Twelve infants who met the criteria for RSPD were
subdivided into two groups: 7-12 and 13-24 months. The data was obtained from a
telephonic interview and completion of the Infant Toddler Symptom Checklist (ITSC).
Following the two-week intervention, the ITSC was completed again and results
were compared using the Wilcoxin Signed Rank Test. Although the research sample
was small, findings indicate that the Ayers-SI sensory diet was effective in reducing
signs of fussiness. The research group showed a significant change (p=0.0024) over
the two-week period, with a greater change evident in the 7-12 month group. Selfregulation
and attachment showed the most significant change. Difficulties with
sensory processing for example, tactile, vestibular and auditory sensitivities
appeared to persist, indicating a possible need for direct sensory integrative therapy
to address them. In addition, the findings indicate that there is a lack of referral for
Ayers-SI occupational therapy. This research adds value to the body of research
which indicates the need for early intervention for possible prevention of later
developmental difficulties.

Motor skill development of children with Down syndromePassarini, John Richard January 2001 (has links)
Thesis (Ed.D.)--Boston University / This study was conducted for the purpose of determining the effectiveness of a home-based motor activity program on children with Down syndrome 6 to 10 years of age. Twenty-six children with Down syndrome and their respective families participated in this twelve-week study. The Circles Of Learning instructional program was created, and fieldtested. The Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD) provided base-line data for measures of progress in fundamental motor skills.
Parents were instructed in how to teach locomotor skills and object control skills as measured by the TGMD. The methods required seven distinct activities: the creation of an instructional manual; recruitment and instruction of project assistants; identification and recruitment of the subjects and their families; pretest and posttest assessment of subjects; instructional training of parents; and the twelve week intervention. The comparison (C) group received the Handwriting Without Tears program during the 12 week intervention period.
When compared with the (C) group, all subjects in the experimental (E) group showed statistically significant improvement in the acquisition of fundamental motor skills as measured by the TGMD. Four (E) group subjects improved to the "average" range for typically developing children. Ten of the 11 (E) group subjects continued to improved their demonstrated fundamental motor skill performance two weeks after the intervention, while one subject maintained his gains. Weekly parent comments during the intervention gave testimony to the effectiveness of the intervention supporting primary and secondary gains for the subjects. Parents reported that interactions between family members and the subjects increased and fundamental motor skills improved during spontaneous unstructured play and during organized activities at home and at school.
This study challenges the previous research suggesting children with Down syndrome need specialized motor development programs. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that the acquisition of fundamental motor skills for children with Down syndrome can be accelerated.

Child Development and the Built Environment: An Investigation of Neighbourhood Physical Disorder & Child-FriendlinessLindsay, Amber 11 1900 (has links)
The past several years have witnessed significant interest in the role that residential neighbourhoods play in shaping child development. There is evidence that contextual attributes of neighbourhoods exert an influence on development, over and above compositional characteristics. These findings suggest that neighbourhood-based interventions may be successful at improving population-level child development outcomes, over policy aimed at individual-based change. However, the reliance on respondent perception of neighbourhood attributes in the existing research is vulnerable to bias. Thus this research employing a quantitative approach to the study of the neighbourhood built environment addresses a significant gap. Drawing from independent sets of data, linked geographically (Early Development Instrument, Google Street View-Systematic Social Observation of a random sample of street segments in each census tract, and the Canadian Marginalization Index), I use correlation and regression analysis to examine the link between neighbourhood physical disorder and child-friendliness, structural disadvantage, and child development at the census tract level in Victoria, B.C. Results indicate physical disorder is the neighbourhood attribute having the most salient impact across multiple domains of child development. Furthermore, the link between neighbourhood child-friendliness and most EDI domains was not in the direction or as significant as hypothesized. This may suggest the need for a more detailed measurement tool to assess quality of each feature as well as presence or absence. Findings also indicate that physical disorder and structural disadvantage may be on the same causal pathway towards shaping children’s health and wellbeing.Overall, this research improves our understanding of the complex interaction between children and their neighbourhoods, and its contribution to healthy development. By identifying the need for a more detailed measurement tool, this research provides evidence for the design of future studies. Furthermore, findings from this study provide evidence in support of population-level intervention to promote healthy child development through improvement of neighbourhood aesthetic. / Thesis / Master of Arts (MA)
