Träning av lexikal förmåga hos ett svensk-arabisktalande förskolebarn : Utredning och intensiv intervention av det svenska ordförrådetNeffati, Hammadi, Höglund, Emelie January 2014 (has links)
Sweden has a growing proportion of children living in a multilingual environment. It is thus highly important that caretakers as well as professionals who meet these children have knowledge of multilingualism and its impact on language development. Also, an increase of referrals of multilingual children with suspected language impairment to speech and language pathology clinics is seen. The objective of this study was to investigate the linguistic ability in both Swedish and Arabic in a four year old child with suspected language impairment. A further aim was to implement an intensive intervention and evaluate the efficacy of it. Language testing in both languages showed that the boy’s greatest need was in the lexical domain. Thus, the intervention focused on strengthening the vocabulary within a limited number of categories. The study was performed with a single-subject design with multiple baseline assessments before intervention and efficacy measurement after the intervention. These were made with the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-III and the Boston Naming Test and both in Arabic and Swedish. The intervention was made in Swedish. After the intervention a significant increase in both passive and active Swedish vocabulary was seen. No transfer effect to the non-trained language was noted. / I det svenska samhället lever en växande andel barn i en flerspråkig miljö. Det är därför av stor vikt att så väl vårdnadshavare som alla professioner som möter dessa barn har kunskap om flerspråkighet och dess påverkan på barnets språkutveckling. Det har skett en ökning av remissinflödet av flerspråkiga barn med misstänkt språkstörning till logopedmottagningarna. Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka den språkliga förmågan avseende såväl arabiska som svenska hos ett flerspråkigt fyraårigt barn med misstänkt språkstörning samt genomföra och värdera effekten av en intensiv intervention på svenska. En språklig testning visade att pojkens största svårigheter var i den lexikala domänen varför interventionen inriktades på att stärka ordförrådet. Studien utfördes enligt single-subject design med multipla baslinjemätningar före intervention och effektmätning efter interventionen. Baslinjemätningar och effektmätning skedde med Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-III och Boston Naming Test och genomfördes på barnets både språk. Efter interventionen visade sig att såväl passivt som aktivt svenskt ordförråd har ökat signifikant. Det aktiva ordförrådet utvecklades i högre utsträckning än det passiva. Ingen signifikant skillnad mellan resultat före och efter intervention avseende arabiskan noterades. Ingen överföringseffekt till det icke tränade språket kunde således noteras.

Measuring the Effect of Alternating In-class with Online Lecture on Student Learning in College ClassroomsKellerstedt, Brett G. 08 1900 (has links)
Personalized instruction has long been a goal of behavior analysis in the education of typically developing populations, one important element of which is the delivery of lectures in new formats. This study tested feasibility of online lecture delivery by comparing online and in-class delivery of lectures using an adapted alternating treatments design. Each week, the lecture component of a unit of an introductory behavior analysis course was presented either online or in-class, alternating week to week. The alternation was counterbalanced between two sections, where one section saw the lecture for a given unit -online while the other did it in-class, allowing for comparison between lectures of a given unit as well as across units within a section. First attempt quiz scores were measured. No significant difference in the trend of quiz scores between conditions was detected, averaging 73.1% (range, 50.4% to 83.4%) for online and 72.8% (range, 54.8 to 84%) for in-class conditions. This suggests that online lectures are a feasible alternative lecture delivery in this introductory behavior analysis course. This experimental methodology may also be used to test other instructional techniques as well. The ability to place lectures online, opens the door to further, more refined, experimentation with modern instructional methods such as the “flipped classroom.”

The Impact of Mindfulness Training on Hyperactive Behaviors Demonstrated by Elementary Age Children with a Diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity DisorderCarboni, Jessica A 11 May 2012 (has links)
Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most prevalent childhood disorders in the United States. Although many children with an ADHD diagnosis are prescribed medication to control symptoms, behavioral concerns are still regularly noted in the classroom, home, and other settings. Therefore, school psychologists are often called upon to assist teachers and families with developing intervention procedures. The purpose of this research was to investigate the relationship between mindfulness training, the cognitive processes of attention regulation, and behavior of children who have been diagnosed with ADHD. This study utilized a multiple baseline across participant’s design where each student was tracked over time following a baseline (pre-intervention) condition. Four 8-year-old male participants with a primary diagnosis of ADHD and a significant number of off-task classroom behaviors were included in this study. Teacher and parent ratings of the Behavior Assessment System for Children, Second Edition (BASC-2) and Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF) were completed pre- and posttest for each participant. The Reliable Change Index (RCI) was calculated to determine if the pre- to posttest change scores on the BASC-2 and BRIEF exceeded what could be accounted for by measurement error alone. Results of the analyses revealed that mindfulness training was effective in increasing the number of on-task behaviors for participants. Parent and teacher ratings on the BRIEF suggest that mindfulness training impacted ratings on the Inhibit, Initiate, and Monitor scales. Parent and teacher ratings on the BASC-2 were analyzed and scores from the Attention Problems scale did not demonstrate significant change across raters and across participants. Significant change occurred on the Hyperactivity scale. Findings are discussed in relationship to the literature on mindfulness training for students with a diagnosis of ADHD. Implications for future research and practice are also suggested.

Spikmattans effekter hos en person med smärtproblematikPousette, Niclas, Möllberg, Annelie January 2010 (has links)
<p><strong>Background:</strong> Pain may involve physical, emotional and psychological reactions. Chronic pain can lead to restrictions and problems in everyday life. One of the most common pain states is low back pain. A form of treatment that has been marketed as a charitable and pain reliefing alternative is the Shakti mat. Currently there are no studies on its effects published. <strong>Purpose:</strong> To see whether treatment with Shakti mat in a person with low back pain has an effect on the experience of the ability in activities of daily life and to see if the psychological factors will change. <strong>Method:</strong> The participant had to lie on a Shakti mat once a day for four weeks. The participant was asked to complete five questionnaires two weeks before, during intervention and two weeks after treatment. The Tampa Scale: a Measure of Kinesiophobia measures to what degree the participant experiencing pain for movement or to harm itself in motion, Coping Strategies Questionnaire - Catastrophizing scale investigating catastrophizing thoughts in connection with pain perception, Pain Disability Index investigates how the participants’ everyday affected/hampered by pain, Self-Efficacy Scale investigates how sure the participant is in his ability to carry out a task despite pain and a Self-monitoring diary where the perception of its ability in everyday activities, experience after treatment, the type of underlay and if the participant could lie longer on the Shakti mat were judged. <strong>Results:</strong> The participant’s pain in some everyday activities mitigated while the degree of ability in these increased after four weeks of treatment. The psychological factors had not changed much.</p>

Kan behandling av insomni förbättra komorbid ångest och depression? / Does treating insomnia effect comorbid anxiety and depression?Maroti, Daniel, Folkeson, Pär January 2008 (has links)
<p>This study investigated the efficacy of a multicomponent cognitive–behavioral intervention of insomnia, CBT-I, for patients suffering from an anxiety disorder and/or a major depressive episode together with comorbid insomnia. In particular, the aim of the study was to evaluate whether anxiety and depressive symptoms declined as a function of</p><p>treatment for insomnia. After rigorous diagnostic procedures, 8 patients were treated in a multiple baseline design. Patients experienced clinically significant reductions in insomnia-, (57 %) depressive- (75 %) and anxiety symptoms (40 %). A three week follow-up measurement</p><p>demonstrated retained effects. These findings suggest that CBT-I is a feasible treatment for comorbid insomnia. It also provides partial support for insomnia as a possible causal agent of depression and anxiety. Further, a schematic model of transdiagnostic processes common to insomnia, anxiety and depression, is presented.

Att vänja sig vid smärta : En behandlingsstudie av patienter med långvarig smärtaAhlstrand, Linnea, Tham, David January 2008 (has links)
<p>Aktuell forskning har visat att psykologiska faktorer spelar en viktig roll för upplevelsen av långvarig smärta. Denna studie undersökte effekterna av en KBT-behandling bestående av introceptiv exponering och avslappning för patienter med långvarig smärta. Studien använde en single-subject design där sex smärtpatienter genomgick en sex veckor lång individuell behandling. De variabler studien undersökte var i första hand förändringar gällande grad av acceptans samt upplevd smärtintensitet, i andra hand förändringar gällande smärtrelaterad ångest, rörelserädsla, katastroftankar samt funktion. Deltagande i behandlingen var förknippat med ökad acceptans, förbättrad funktion, minskad smärtintensitet, minskad smärtrelaterad ångest, mindre katastroftankar samt minskad rörelserädsla. Studien tyder på att denna behandling kan leda till positiva förändringar hos smärtpatienter för såväl kognitiva och känslomässiga komponenter som beteendemässiga komponenter.</p> / <p>Current research has shown that psychological factors play an important role in the experience of chronic pain. This study examined the effects of a CBT treatment containing interoceptive exposure and relaxation for patients with chronic pain. The study used a single-subject design where six patients underwent a six week long individual treatment. The variables the study examined were changes concerning degree of acceptance, pain intensity, changes concerning pain related anxiety, kinesiophobia, catastrophizing and function. Participation in the treatment was associated with increased acceptance, improved function, reduced pain intensity, reduced pain related anxiety, less catastrophizing and reduced kinesiophobia. The study indicates that this treatment can lead to positive changes with pain patients in both cognitive and emotional components as well as behavioral components.</p>
