The Problem Of Multicultural Attitudes in Fourth Grade Students

Multiculturalism is a response to the growing primary school population and demands for equal rights for all primary schools. Through this education, students are taught to avoid discrimination, understand tolerance, respect other people's views, build empathy, and create a culture of mutual respect. This research is motivated by awareness of the importance of multicultural attitudes that occur in elementary school students. The aim of this research is to find out what problems arise in the interactions of students who interact in a multicultural atmosphere at school. To explore the issue of multicultural attitudes in elementary schools, this research uses a case study method. Data was obtained through observation, interviews and documentation which was analyzed using tabulation and comparison techniques to obtain conclusions from the data. The subjects of this research were fourth grade teachers and 5 students. The results of the research concluded that the problem of multicultural attitudes still often occurs in elementary schools, especially in interactions between students. These problems include making jokes that offend beliefs/religions, offensive jokes can hurt the feelings of students whose religion is used as material for encouragement. This can cause low self-esteem, anxiety, and discomfort in the school environment. Another problem found was mocking parents' professions, which has the potential to make students feel embarrassed, low self-esteem, and have problems socializing because their parents' professions are used as material for socializing. The problem of dominant multicultural attitudes occurs when students interact outside of study hours.

초등학교 고학년의 자아개념 잠재프로파일 분석

Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate classifications and qualities of the self-concept latent profile using latent profile analysis; and to verify how the latent profile is related to predictor variables and outcome variables. Methods For this purpose, a self-concept latent profile analysis was conducted on 388 elementary school students in Chungnam province. The social support scale was selected as a predictor of self-concept latent profile, and achievement-related variables (self-determination motivation, achievement emotion, academic effort) and academic achievement scale were selected as outcome variables according to self-concept latent profile. Results The major results of this study are as follows. First, three self-concept latent profiles were extracted from elementary school students: ‘Overall Lowness-Physical Appearance Negative Type’, ‘Overall Average-Parent Relationship Positive Type’, and ‘Overall Positive Type’; Secund, the higher the social support(teacher⋅parents⋅friend support) as predictor variables of the self-concept latent profile, the higher the likelihood of belonging to the ‘Overall Positive Type’; the lower the level of these, the higher the likelihood of belonging to the ‘Overall Lowness-Physical Appearance Negative Type’; Third, for those belonging to the ‘Overall Positive Type’, where self-concept is high, higher levels of self-determination motivation, enjoyment, academic effort, and academic achievement were identified, rather than in the ‘Overall Average-Parent Relationship Positive Type’ and ‘Overall Lowness-Physical Appearance Negative Type’. Conclusions By revealing that self-concept changes into various types, it shows the need for educational intervention to promote social relationships, along with customized guidance according to the group level.

Influence of Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Metabolic Syndrome on Epicardial Adipose Tissue Thickness in Rural Spanish Children and Adolescents

The presence of visceral adipose tissue implies a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases than subcutaneous adiposity, the most dangerous heart fat. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) could have great potential as a detection indicator of cardiovascular diseases, although it has seldom been studied in Spanish children. Objective: The objective of the current research was to describe the values of EAT in a Spanish pediatric population and to investigate the associations between EAT and anthropometric measures, blood pressure, lipid and glucose profiles, and metabolic syndrome. Method: An analytical cross-sectional study of elementary and high school students (aged 6 to 17) measured anthropometrics, blood pressure, lipid and glycemic profiles, and echocardiographic fat thickness. The analysis was based on regression and discriminant analysis. Results: The results of this study (N = 227) showed that the body mass index (BMI) was 20.29 ± 4.54, with an overweight set of 49.77%, and the percentage for metabolic syndrome was 5.3%. EAT was linked to being male, BMI percentile, waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio (p < 0.001), hypertension, higher low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, and metabolic syndrome (p < 0.05). Conclusions: This paper argues that in children with higher elevated EAT thickness values, this correlates with cardiovascular risk factors including high blood pressure, elevated LDL levels, and metabolic syndrome.
