Analisis Komunikasi Siswa Kelas 6 SD Dalam Mengimplementasikan Muatan Lokal Materi Unggah-Ungguh Basa Jawa

The existence of Javanese language learning in the era of modern technology among the younger generation is starting to decline. Considering the Javanese language is a learning that does not only emphasize language and culture learning but as an effort to preserve culture, one of which is uploading the Javanese language. The purpose of this research is to analyze the understanding and implementation of the Javanese language variety upload material when communicating with other people. With this research, it is hoped that the obstacles experienced during the Javanese language learning process can be overcome. This research uses a qualitative method with a case study approach involving a Javanese language teacher and 50 students from two elementary schools. Sources of data from interviews, questionnaires, and written exams for students. The data were analyzed using the analytical model of Milles and Huberman starting from the collection, reduction, and presentation of data, and drawing conclusions. The results showed that the factors causing the decline in the existence of the Javanese language among elementary school students were due to the lack of precise teaching methods for subject teachers, the social environment of children, and the absence of proper habituation of Javanese language children in the family. Based on the results of the questionnaire sheet, it was found that students had difficulty in distinguishing various Javanese languages ​​such as ngoko, krama, and krama inggil. Students tend to generalize the use of Javanese for parents, teachers, and friends when communicating.

Developmental risk sensitivity theory: the effects of socio-economic status on children's risky gain and loss decisions.

Evolutionary developmental theories propose that early environments shape human risk preferences. Developmental risk sensitivity theory (D-RST) focuses on the plasticity of risk preferences during childhood and makes predictions about the effect of reward size based on a child's social environment. By contrast, prospect theory predicts risk aversion for gains and risk seeking for losses regardless of environment or status. We presented 4 to 10-year-olds (n = 194) with a set of trials in which they chose between a certain amount and a chance to receive more or nothing. Two trials were equal expected value choices that differed by stake size and two were unequal expected value choices. Children either received gain trials or loss trials. Social environment was assessed using socio-economic status (SES) and subjective social status. Results confirmed the predictions of D-RST for gains based on SES. Children from lower-SES families differentiated between the high- and low-value trials and made more risky decisions for the high-value reward compared with higher-SES children. Children from higher-SES families were more risk averse for both trial types. Decisions for loss trials did not conform completely to either theory. We discuss the results in relation to evolutionary developmental theories.

The effectiveness of an attention-based intervention for school-aged autistic children with anger regulating problems: A randomized controlled trial.

Anger regulation is a challenge for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). We investigated if attention-based cognitive behavioral treatment, based on mindfulness cognitive therapy (MBCT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), reduces aggressive behavior and improves anger coping in school-aged autistic children (n=51). Children were randomized to an active-control or a treatment condition. The treatment included nine weekly sessions attention-based individual therapy. Parents in both conditions received three weekly psychoeducation group sessions to heighten awareness of expressed emotion (EE). For aggressive behavior, treatment reduced temper tantrums and arguing. No effect was found on destroying things and physical violence. For anger coping, treatment increased adaptive coping strategies of diffusion and social support seeking, but had no effect on assertion, rumination, and maladaptive coping direct anger out and avoidance. Treatment did not impact secondary outcome measures concerning children's quality of life (QoL) and parental stress-levels and psychological well-being. In conclusion, school-aged autistic children are able to acquire self-regulation skills reducing temper tantrums and arguing and increasing the use of adaptive anger coping strategies. The intervention shows potential to improve behavior and regulation, but little transfer to other domains. Limitations and future directions involving the child's social environment, including parents, siblings, and teachers are discussed. LAY SUMMARY: Children on the autism spectrum often show aggressive behavior. Treatment can train children to be more aware of their emotions. This study found that this can help reducing temper tantrums and arguing and increasing some coping skills, though no impact was found on several other domains of aggression and coping.

Fenomena LGBTQ+: Analisis Fitrah Seksualitas Manusia

LGBTQ+ is a sexual deviance that is rampant in society these days. Some people consider that this sexual disorder is caused by hereditary or genetic factors, but studies have proven that this phenomenon is caused by mis-parenting and environmental factors. In the context of Islamic Education, this sexual perversion is caused by the injury of sexual fitrah. In addition, this disorder is also caused by social factors, culture or bad lifestyle. Islam has taught how to grow the fitrah of sexuality through several stages; starting from the age of 0-2 years, 2-7 years, 7-10 years, 10-14 years to the aqil period of baliqh. The presence of a masculine father figure and a feminine mother who accompanies and educates children according to gender from the time they are born to aqil baligh is the key to the child growing according to the fitrah based on his sexuality. If this phase of caring for sexuality is missed, then the seeds of perversion will grow and strengthen. The efforts to cultivate the fitrah of child sexuality must also be combined with instilling the fitrah of faith since both are the keys, so that the child grows completely according to the will of his God when he is presented to this world. Another very important effort is to pay attention to the child's social environment because association might affect our children’s way of thinking and lifestyle.

Consideration in Teaching the Features of the Psychophysiological Development of Children Involved in Regular and Developmental Programs

Children in primary school age are characterized by a certain set of age and psychological characteristics that provide the possibility of forming a complex cognitive sphere, including the perception of information, its processing, memorization, the ability to extract and use the information received. At different stages of individual development, the predominance of certain morphofunctional complexes of a developing organism ensures an adequate response to environmental factors at this stage of development. Studying at school involves straining the protective and compensatory capabilities of the body to ensure the learning process in a new social environment for children. The adaptation processes and the success of learning, along with the condition of preserving the health of students, are significantly influenced by both the individual characteristics of the child’s readiness for school, his inclinations and abilities, and the forms of organization of the educational process. The results of a comparative analysis of preschool children engaged in different preschool programs did not reveal significant differences in parameters reflecting the level of development of memory, attention, thinking, which is quite logically explained by the age characteristics of the development of these psychophysiological indicators. More pronounced were the differences in children’s performance indicators, which were determined by L.Y. Anfimov’s proofreading tests and the Koos method. According to both methods, performance indicators were higher in children engaged in a developmental program. More significant differences between the estimated indicators of psychofunctional development of children engaged in different educational programs were revealed in students of grades 1-2. Significantly significant differences were revealed in almost all the estimated parameters, with the exception of memory and thinking.

The association between the social environment of childhood and adolescence and depression in young adulthood - A prospective cohort study

BackgroundGood social relationships with parents and peers protect children and adolescents from developing mental disorders in adulthood while several negative experiences increase the risk of depression in later life. MethodsWe used population-based cohort data from the Northern Finland Birth Cohort (NFBC) 1986. Participants (n = 6147), their teachers and parents reported factors associated with the social environment of children and adolescents. Diagnoses of depression of cohort members were derived from Finnish nationwide registers. We conducted regression analyses to assess which factors of the social environment of childhood and adolescence were associated with depression in young adulthood. ResultsBullying victimization in adolescence was the strongest predictor of depression in young adulthood among girls (OR 2.23: 95% CI 1.47–3.39) and boys (OR 2.44: 95% CI 1.49–4.00). Loneliness and bullying behavior in childhood were associated with depression in boys only. Loneliness in adolescence (OR 1.63: 95% CI 1.30–2.04) was associated with depression among both genders. Spending with the family seemed to protect against the negative impact of bullying and loneliness. LimitationsWe used single-item study questions to measure social relationships. These questions do not necessarily describe the phenomena as accurately as the measures validated for them. ConclusionProblems in social relationships with peers in childhood and adolescence are associated with depression in young adulthood. Time spent with the family is emphasized in situations in which adolescents have problems in peer-relationships.

Early concepts of intimacy: Young humans use saliva sharing to infer close relationships.

Across human societies, people form "thick" relationships characterized by strong attachments, obligations, and mutual responsiveness. People in thick relationships share food utensils, kiss, or engage in other distinctive interactions that involve sharing saliva. We found that children, toddlers, and infants infer that dyads who share saliva (as opposed to other positive social interactions) have a distinct relationship. Children expect saliva sharing to happen in nuclear families. Toddlers and infants expect that people who share saliva will respond to one another in distress. Parents confirm that saliva sharing is a valid cue of relationship thickness in their children's social environments. The ability to use distinctive interactions to infer categories of relationships thus emerges early in life, without explicit teaching; this enables young humans to rapidly identify close relationships, both within and beyond families.

Психологические последствия переживания стресса в детском возрасте — феномены «оставленности» и «вовлеченности»

The article deals with the fundamental problem of psychology, devoted to the theoretical analysis of the specifics of the child's experience of stressful situations with different levels of traumatization. Along with the lack of childhood stress understanding and research, the very principles of differentiation between every day and traumatic stress remain the least studied. In the theory of post-traumatic stress, it has been proven that one of the criteria for the danger/safety of a life situation is a person's subjective evaluation of the life threat degree. Such an assessment is based on the individual's representations of psychological safety and its components, such as "internal comfort", "experience/awareness" and "positive environment". In the course of a theoretical analysis of the problem of child's stress, we have shown in the article that a child's feeling of internal comfort and stability depends on the degree of the environment activity, its ability not only to protect the child, but also to provide additional opportunities. In accordance with the purpose of the work, the primary emphasis is not on the resourcefulness of the child's social environment, but on its limitation — the phenomena of "abandonment" and "involvement", which are analyzed taking into account a specific context — the impact on the child of everyday stressors and stressors of high intensity. The methodological basis of the study was the system (B.F. Lomov) and subject-activity approaches (S.L. Rubinshtein, A.V. Brushlinsky and others), the dynamic approach to the study of personality (L.I. Antsyferova). Focusing on these approaches has allowed us to consider the child stress in accordance with a whole system of factors (the nature of the stressor, supporting/non-supporting social environment, etc.). The methods of abstraction, formalization and interpretation are used as theoretical procedures. On the basis of an expert assessment, the features of reactions to everyday stress (situations of interaction of a child with parents and peers) are highlighted, which, unlike traumatic stress (situations of an extreme nature), are not determined by the impact of a specific stressor, but arise as a response to a latent cause of a diffuse nature associated with violation of social and information safety of the child. Manifestations of everyday stress act as a child's reaction to the feeling of "abandonment", which turns out to be associated with emotional, social and informational deprivation, with the leveling or distortion by adults of the child's social roles (the role structure of interaction). The feeling of being "involved" in the context of a traumatic event is accompanied by physical deprivation and a more intense experience of emotional deprivation (emotional rejection), including the child in non-normative social relations and imposing obligations on him that do not correspond to the level of the child's physical, social and mental maturity. The phenomena of abandonment and involvement are analyzed using examples of various situations of everyday and psycho-traumatic nature.

Interpersonal Musical Synchronization and Prosocial Behavior in Children: No Effects in a Controlled Field Experiment.

Prosocial effects of music have recently attracted increased attention in research and media. An often-cited experiment, carried out by Kirschner and Tomasello in 2010 under laboratory conditions, found that children at the age of four years were more willing to help each other after they had engaged in synchronous musical activities. The aim of the current study was to replicate this research under controlled field conditions in the children's social environment, and to disentangle the musical synchronization effect by introducing a verbal interaction (singing together) and a motor interaction (tapping together) task, contrasted by an asynchronous control condition. In a between-participants design, no effects of musical synchronization nor the children's gender were found. Furthermore, age was not related to prosocial behavior. Explanations are systematically discussed, yet it remains possible that the original effect found in 2010 might be overestimated and less consistently reproducible as previously assumed.

MULTIMEDIA PRESENTATIONS AND TEACHING ABOUT THE WORLD AROUND US, MAN AND NATURE, AND MAN AND SOCIETY IN GRADES 1 - 4

The article aims to justify and elucidate the role of multimedia presentations in learning about the world around us. Multimedia presentations accompany early training aimed at the child's natural and social environment. They are systematically used due to the visual nature of the predominant learning material, which quite often combines illustrative and educational functions.
 This article focuses on the didactic use of presentations in lessons and its methodology. The objective of this research is to establish which didactic tasks are performed with the help of multimedia presentations in lessons.
 The results in the areas studied show that there is no single unified method for using multimedia presentations in the lessons on the surrounding world. In practice, different approaches are used, which, in some cases, are incompatible with the traditional teaching procedure.

The involvement in health promotion in the setting of daycare centres - Description of access

BackgroundFor health promotion and prevention in childhood, e.g. overweight, the daycare setting enables particularly early access to the target groups. The aim is to address not only children, but more explicitly also their parents and the wider social environment, and to involve them in the planning and implementation of measures. The project is developing participative and demand-oriented offers in different institutions throughout Germany. Scientific monitoring aims to generate recommendations for action for participatory health research from these various experiences.MethodsAccess takes place via day care centres and family centres. The participatory research design starts with the Search Conference method. With this method, institution-specific needs are identified on a local level and goals are defined that determine the further processes. The participatory procedure is accompanied by interviews and focus group discussions which are analysed according to Mayring.ResultsDue to lockdown, access to the target groups via the institution is difficult. Families and network partners are hardly accessible and heavily burdened. Nevertheless, it has been possible to establish digital participation in some institutions. The evaluations show that parents have a great interest in the health of their children. On the one hand, the results indicate that the current conditions lead to a wait-and-see attitude on the part of the institutions, while at the same time the topic of health is gaining in importance among all those involved.ConclusionsParticipatory methods pose a particular challenge during lockdown and must be adapted to the current situation. Especially when moving participation into the digital space, daycare centres (and similar institutions) play a key role as gatekeepers.Key messages Covid 19 highlights the central role of families and the immediate social environment for children.It is essential to involve them in health promotion to enable children to grow up healthily.

Resocialization for Victims of Sexual Violence at the Social Rehabilitation Center for Children who Need Special Protection (BRSAMPK) Rumbai Pekanbaru

Implementation of resocialization for victims of sexual violence at the social rehabilitation center for children who need special protection (BRSAMPK) Rumbai Pekanbaru. This research was conducted at BRSAMPK Rumbai Pekanbaru. The purpose of this research is to find out the resocialization process carried out by social workers to children who are victims of sexual violence and to find out the obstacles that affect the implementation of the resocialization process carried out by social workers to children who are victims of sexual violence. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach using purposive sampling technique. The number of informants in this study were five informants and one key informant. The results obtained are that social workers carry out the stages of resocialization of child victims of sexual violence with interventions carried out through psychosocial therapy. Resocialization in the social environment of children who are victims of sexual violence is also carried out, including the family environment, community, schools, course institutions where social workers advocate so that children can be well received in that environment. Social workers carry out a monitoring process that is carried out at the advanced guidance stage to see the developments that occur in children after social rehabilitation is carried out. Meanwhile, the obstacles encountered by social workers do not come from internal social workers. However, the obstacle comes from the child himself being traumatized by the events he has experienced. Other obstacles arise in the family environment that rejects the existence of children and the community environment that carries out a bad stigma against children.

The Prevention of Children as Victims of Human Trafficking

Trafficking in persons is a crime that often occurs. Children are very vulnerable to become victims of human trafficking. Child trafficking is an act that is very inhumane and destroys the future of children. Child trafficking is usually carried out by persuasion, making promises, and deceiving the victims. Therefore, precautions must be taken to minimize child trafficking. To prevent this, several efforts were made, including improving the family economy, creating a harmonious family, increasing religious understanding, negative impacts and legal consequences of child trafficking, increasing supervision on children, keeping children away from hedonistic lifestyles and consumptive behavior, getting to know children's social environment, increasing children's education and skills.

Exploring qualities of ethnically diverse parents related to the healthy home environment of toddlers

Parents serve as role models and household policy makers for their children's home social environment. Also, parents may influence the home physical environment through the provision of resources to support their children's dietary, activity, and sleep behaviors. Understanding the parental characteristics related to children's home environment may allow for tailoring obesity interventions to families' needs. This study aimed to explore parental qualities (general parenting styles, parent feeding practices, and parental BMI) related to healthy home food, physical activity, media and sleep environment of toddlers. A total of 50 multi-ethnic parents with toddler age children who were enrolled in a randomized pilot study of a wellness program completed the Structure and Control in Parent Feeding (SCPF) questionnaire and Comprehensive General Parenting Questionnaire (CGPQ). Parental BMI was calculated using self-reported weight and height data. The Healthy Home Survey, the Home Food Inventory, the Sleep Environment Questionnaire, and items developed for this study were standardized and summed to create home food, physical activity, screen media, and sleep environment scores; high scores reflected healthier environments. To examine the relationships between parental qualities and the home environment, Pearson's correlation test was performed. Parental BMI and overall healthy home environment were inversely associated (r = -0.306; p = 0.032). Structure in general parenting and parental feeding practice were positively correlated with the overall healthy home environment (r = 0.336; p = 0.026) and healthy home food environment (r = 0.415; p = 0.003), respectively. The coercive control general parenting was inversely related to overall healthy home environment score (r = -0.333; p = 0.022). Based on the findings from this study, parents who provide clear communication, set consistent rules, avoid pressure to control their child's behavior, and have lower BMI tend to live in a home environment that support children's health behaviors.

Infants recognize words spoken through opaque masks but not through clear masks.

COVID‐19 has modified numerous aspects of children's social environments. Many children are now spoken to through a mask. There is little empirical evidence attesting to the effects of masked language input on language processing. In addition, not much is known about the effects of clear masks (i.e., transparent face shields) versus opaque masks on language comprehension in children. In the current study, 2‐year‐old infants were tested on their ability to recognize familiar spoken words in three conditions: words presented with no mask, words presented through a clear mask, and words presented through an opaque mask. Infants were able to recognize familiar words presented without a mask and when hearing words through opaque masks, but not when hearing words through clear masks. Findings suggest that the ability of infants to recover spoken language input through masks varies depending on the surface properties of the mask.

Attention deficit and hiperactivity disorder: Age, sex and social environment as evaluable factors in children and teenagers

IntroductionAttention Deficit and Hiperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurobiological disorder, affecting executive functions and defined by hyperactivity, attention deficit and/or impulsivity symptoms. This neurodevelopmental disorder affect up to 7% of children. It is observed as a chronic pathology appearing on childhood with other comorbid diseases. Often, remarkable symptoms use to change with the age, however a real improvement is also related with other -external- factors, as social environment.Objectives-To highlight variability of ADHD symptoms and complexity of available treatments in childhood. -To analize influence of personal and familiar factors, which affect to evolution of ADHD and the response to treatment.Methods Comparative-study. Retrospective selection of 8 patients with treatment for ADHD and currently stable. A 12-months ADHD confirmed diagnosis in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Unit and follow-up after diagnosis. They are compared by aged-pairs (females and males) at the different development school-stages (preschool 3-6 years, primary school 7-12 years and adolescence 13-16 years). *Pairs of study: male-5 years/female-6 years; male-7 years/female-8 years; female-10 years/male-11 years; female-13 years/male-15 yearsResults-Evolution of ADHD highlights the influence of age-factor about remarkable symptoms mainly (from hiperactivity to inattentiveness). -Comorbid disorders seems related with sex-factor (impulsivity-eating disorders on females and irritability-mood disorders on males). -Children social environment, specially family support, is an important external factor for all these patients (low self-steem or somatization disorders).Conclusions 1. ADHD as a chronic disorder whose evolution depends on the age, sex and social factors 2. Genetic component or familiar support are also considered as influencers factors 3.Multidisciplinary approach to objectives: motivation, organization and maturity 4. Treatment is consider according to side effects and comorbidity

Consumer perspective on healthcare services for juvenile idiopathic arthritis: results of a multicentre JIA inception cohort study.

To evaluate healthcare services for patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) from the parent-proxy perspective and to identify factors associated with perceived deficits in care. Patients with JIA from 11 paediatric rheumatology units were enrolled in an inception cohort within the first 12 months after diagnosis. Healthcare services were assessed using The Child Healthcare Questionnaire on satisfaction, utilisation and needs. Factors associated with deficits in care were identified by logistic regression analysis. Data from parents of 835 JIA-patients were included in the analysis. At the assessment (4.7 months after diagnosis), 85% of the patients received drug treatment, and 50% had received multi-professional care. The most frequently used services were physiotherapy (84%), occupational therapy (23%), and telephone counselling (17%). Almost one-third of families reported that they had not received the services that they needed, with health education being the most frequently reported need. Most parents (93%) were satisfied with the overall healthcare provided for their children, especially regarding doctors' behaviour. However, approximately 1 in 3 consumers were dissatisfied with the time to JIA diagnosis and the school services. The lower the child's quality of life, the higher the chance was that the child and the family received multi-professional care, perceived unmet needs, and were dissatisfied with care. According to parents' experience and satisfaction with their child's care, performance at the system level can be further improved by diagnosing JIA earlier, providing additional information at disease onset, and ensuring that the child's social environment is taken into account.

Correlation between social support and the achievement of the development of self-concept to deaf children 7 – 12 years

Children with deaf have a disability in language and communication because they cannot hear and understand their environment, so that is not uncommon for people around them to assume that children with deaf cannot live in the social environment. This matter shows the community to deaf children where it can affect children's self-concept with the deaf. This research aims to analyze the correlations between social support and self-concept in children with the deaf. A cross-sectional study was used to examine 51 children with deaf 7 – 12 years selected with a convenience sampling method. The questionnaire consisted of identity data used to measure participant characteristics. Social Support Questionnaire for children (SSQC) was used to measure social support and the Self-Description Questionnaire to measure self-concept. The Chi-Square test is used to answer the objectives of this study. From 51 respondents, 44 (86.3%) deaf children received good social support, with the most social support obtained from 36 friends (70.6%) and siblings 36 (70.6%). Of the five components of social support, only social support from friends and siblings most resulted in low-deaf children's self-concept. There was a relationship between social support and the self-concept of deaf children (Z = 1.833; p-value = 0.034). Support from various sources is needed for deaf children to develop self-concept in their social life. Therefore, the child's social environment needs to provide adequate social support for developing an excellent deaf child's self-concept.

Children's Recidivist who Conducted Criminal Act: Legal Psychology Perspective

Children's social environment influences their psychological return to crimes, and it is a treatment or reward from friends which they consider right since they are encouraged to repeat their actions. The research is an empirical legal research. The results shows that The role of psychologists in Special Child Development Institutions is not optimal, due to limited resources. Furthermore, parents or families should actively supervise and limit the association of children as this will prevent them from returning to the social environment. This is because the environment encourages them to commit criminal acts. Also, the government should make provision for their development through the Ministry of Rights and human rights psychologists of any special institute for children's development.

Pendidikan Seks bagi Anak Sejak Dini Persfektif Gender sebagai Bentuk Kemandirian dalam Lingkungan Sosial

<em>Sex education is a taboo to discuss, especially if it is concerned with the words children or adolescents. They tend to be protected from the word sex and are isolated from the adult world because they are their children who do not deserve to know about the essence of sex itself according to adults. Surrounding people limit children's knowledge about what is the essence of sex itself. A good social environment will affect children's growth and development such as self-confidence, ability to do things, high motivation, unyielding attitude, responsibility and trust in others. To form a good social environment, parents must have a high level of trust in children when children grow up. As parents, worry is undeniable, but minimizing worry by providing various education to children is a better solution than limiting the child's social environment. One of the important education provided is sex education for children from an early age. Sex education is expected to fortify children from promiscuity that tends to be negative and to choose a productive social environment to develop children's abilities and personalities to become more independent.</em>
