Parenting, Environment, and Its Role in Adolescent Transition into Adulthood

Adolescence is the most important stage in every man’s life because it is the bridge that clearly defines the childhood dream and the imagination to actual reality in adulthood. It is a period of storm and stress that comes with multiple complexities, as a result of trauma from, biological, environmental, and social factors. It is not an easy time for adolescents and parents. There are lots of parents- adolescent conflicts that create insecure and unstable feelings which could lead to impulsive and harmful behavior due to both bad parenting and parental dysfunctions. Dealing with these conflicts positively will help the adolescent transform into a more responsible adult which brings about a more responsible society. We discussed the outcome of improper transition due to poor parenting and environmental factors with its complexities and limitation in research on parenting and environment. The importance and problem of home management and environmental influence, understanding the adolescent’s needs, wants, cravings, and the effect of hormones on them. We also provide a contextual explanation of the balance of their role as caregivers and their style of parenting and the negative consequences when relegated and the danger it poses to the adolescent. Also identifying the key factor in parenting by describing the task of a parent and how the society at large influences the process of parenting. We also describe how parental style and environment and resources can affect the adolescent complete transition to adulthood which influence the overall outcome of the individual in terms of understanding, perception, and behavior; suggesting a possible way to abate the crisis by educating parents on when to be what the child needs.

DYNAMICS OF EMOTION IN ADOLESCENTS WITH MOTHERS WITH AUTHORITARIAN PARENTING

This study aims to examine the flow of emotional dynamics in adolescents who have mothers with authoritarian parenting. This is qualitative research. Participants consisted of 3 teenagers, 2 females and 1 male who had a mother with authoritarian parenting. Data were collected by providing authoritarian parenting screening which is then followed by a semistructured interview. The interviews were done using online communication media, such as Whatsapp. The data triangulation techniques were used as the credibility in this study. From the results of the research, it can be concluded that the triggers of emotional dynamics were due to the authoritarian parenting of their mothers, such as the existence of restrictions, punishment and demands. The emotional dynamics experienced by the three participants were their unstable feeling, marked by feelings of anger, fear, boredom, and sadness when they disagreed with their mothers. The outlet of each participant is different. In the process of quelling emotions, each participant prefers to cover up the story or write and end up asleep. Each participant will calm down so that they are not deep far into negative emotions.

How self-esteem and narcissism differentially relate to high and (un)stable feelings of status and inclusion.

We tested how self-esteem and grandiose narcissism are associated with people's level and instability of status and inclusion. In Studies 1 and 2, we used latent profile analysis (Study 1, N=989; Study 2, N=470, 111 teams) to examine how people felt about their level and instability of status and inclusion. In Study 3, we used daily diary reports (N=287, 1,286 daily observations) to track people's level and instability of status and inclusion. Higher levels of status and inclusion did not always correspond to more stable beliefs about one's social standing. Self-esteem predicted higher and more stable feelings of status and inclusion. Although narcissistic admiration also predicted higher levels of status and inclusion, we found mixed evidence regarding its link to the instability of such feelings. Narcissistic rivalry, however, predicted more unstable feelings of status and inclusion. By modeling the heterogeneity of status and inclusion feelings across subgroups (Studies 1 and 2) and documenting the degree of instability people experience regarding such feelings (Study 3), these results provide insight into how self-esteem and narcissism relate to the level and instability of status and inclusion.

AB138. 10. A report of 8 cases of polyethylene spinout/dislocation in the ATTUNE mobile-bearing rotating-platform total knee arthroplasty

Background: The low contact stress (LCS) mobile bearing (MB) rotating platform (RP) knee system has an excellent clinical track record and proven survivorship. The advantage of RP knees is that the bearing can rotate as the knee flexes, this allows for a more natural motion and may reduce the stress and wear on the implant. The Attune MB RP knee system was designed to provide better range of motion and address the unstable feeling some patients experience during everyday activities, such as stair descent and bending. Spinout/dislocation is a known complication of MB RP total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Aim: To discuss the aetiology, prevention, incidence, and possible risk factors for spinout in Attune knee.

Forced knee extension test is a manual test that correlates with the unstable feelings of patients with ACL injury before and after reconstruction

BackgroundTo investigate fear in patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury before and after reconstruction, a forced knee extension (FKE) test was performed. The correlation of the test results was evaluated with the subjective function, sports performance and objective parameters. MethodsThe study included 102 patients with unilateral ACL reconstruction using a semitendinosus tendon with full clinical evaluation. This study was retrospective and determined the longitudinal results of the FKE test and investigated the effects on the subjective and objective outcomes at 2years. ResultsPreoperatively, 47% of patients showed positive FKE tests. The number of positive FKE tests was 31% at six months and 15% at 24months after ACL reconstruction. At two years, there were statistically significant differences between the FKE test positives and negatives regarding both subjective knee recovery (P=0.0095) and sports performance (P=0.0006). ConclusionsA new manual test, called the forced knee extension test, for fear in patients with ACL injury before and after reconstruction was introduced. The apprehension remained positive in 15% of the patients two years after ACL reconstruction, which affected subjective recovery of knee function and sports performance.

Romantic Intertextuality: The Adaptive Weave

weave represents a network of allusive threads that, once plotted, enables an enhanced understanding of Romantic-period intertextuality. OED defines as The need for one text to be read in light of its allusions to and differences from content or structure of other texts; (allusive) relationship between esp. literary texts. most familiar methods by which authors refer to other authors and their tropes and themes in both oblique and obvious ways are through borrowing, allusion, plagiarism, and quotation. A few eminent critics such as Adela Pinch (1997), Tilar Mazzeo (2006), and Stuart Curran (2008) have allowed readers to critique and complicate this notion, moving away from an assumption of anxiety and its attendant need to situate self by annihilating predecessor. At same time, critics have perhaps not yet fully fathomed a model that is more than bilateral. Most investigations look at how x has incorporated y; I would like to offer some thoughts on what might be called warp and weft of literary cross-reference, in which work of writing meshes with work readers see female characters undertaking: manipulating threads to construct something new and comprehensive and yet visibly product of many strands. And so, pace Roland Barthes (1989), my counter to intertextuality is weaving, activity of using and reusing literary heritage to forward and maintain narrative (see also Stanford Friedman, 1991). Barthes maintains that act of weaving is, essentially, undercover: that is, it hides its own pattern. As he comments, the quotations a text is made of are anonymous, irrecoverable, and yet already read: they are quotations without quotation marks ( 60). adaptive weaver, however, pulls visibly on threads of text that both underpin and overlay pattern of plot. I begin with Charlotte Smith, whose work, as Curran (2008) has demonstrated, absolutely teems with allusiveness. But, as well as displaying her familiarity with foundational voices of her literary heritage (which of course includes European as well as British progenitors), she also threads her narratives, over and under like weft, with their patterns. For instance, to enter world of Romantic hero for a moment, and reflecting on his usual pattern in standard novel of sensibility, familiar picture is of someone who is, if not fully perfect, at least fully deserving of hand of heroine from his first appearance. hero's virtues are enhanced by competition he faces from foils like libertine and fop. Smith's novels give due prominence to Romantic hero; however, she also complicates his role. Smith rewrites genre from within; by stretching warp as tightly as possible, her novels follow familiar Romantic pattern while subverting attractions of main male player. Smith anchors this in Petrarchan, Wertheresque, or Rousseauvian behaviour on die part of her heroes. Self-absorbed; devoted to an unreal ideal of love; unable to see their beloved outside of stark, innocent/ compromised binaries; convinced of universality of their unstable feelings; wanderers; at mercy of their self-conceptions: just about all of Smith's heroes fit at least some of these parameters, noted by scholars such as Gerhart Hoffmeister (1990), Lilian Furst (1990) and Steven Sondrup (1990) as closely identified with Continental literary tradition. As she works out her plots, French, German and Italian modes usually function problematically, something not unique to Smith but rather inherent in her patterns: Petrarch, Werther and Rousseau offer difficult forms of manhood. By piecing together past and present, Smith does something different from intertextual allusion: she imports and then interweaves patterns so that standard male characters of novel of sensibility are developed into inhabitants of a modern world in which conflict, confusion, irrationality, and faulty decision-making are rife. …

Wobbling Appearance of a Face Induced by Doubled Parts

An illusion produced by duplicating facial parts, which can cause an unstable feeling for many observers, was investigated. We examined factors that contribute to the unstable feeling. The results suggest that this illusion is specific to face perception, and the unstable feeling may be generated by difficulty in keeping attention directed to either of the duplicated facial parts.

Anatomical transverse patella double tunnel reconstruction of medial patellofemoral ligament with a hamstring tendon autograft for recurrent patellar dislocation

The purpose of this study was to describe our transverse patella double tunnel technique to reconstruct the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) with a hamstring tendon autograft in patients who suffered recurrent dislocation of the patella, and to evaluate the intermediate-term outcomes of reconstruction treatment. Fifty-nine consecutive knees (52 patients) with recurrent dislocation of the patella without marked predisposing anatomic abnormalities and radiographically documented moderate/severe osteochondral lesions were included in the study. Outcomes were assessed with physical and radiographic examination, the Kujala and the modified Cincinnati scores preoperatively and postoperatively at 3, 6, 12, 36, 60 and 84months. There were 19 male and 33 female patients with up to 7.1-year follow-up (mean 5.7years). The mean age was 24.3years. A comparison of preoperative scores with those obtained at most recent follow-up revealed a significant improvement for all outcomes measured: range of motion (30±2° vs. 125±5°, P<0.01), the mean Kujala scores (41.4 vs. 82.6, P<0.001), the mean modified Cincinnati scores (50.6 vs. 88.7, P<0.01), the mean congruence angle (12.2° vs. -2.4°, P<0.01) and the mean tilt angle (11.4° vs. 8.4°, P<0.05). No recurrent episodes of dislocation or subluxation were postoperatively reported, although there were seven knees with an occasional unstable feeling without redislocation. MPFL reconstruction with the double-transverse tunnels technique is safe and effective in patients of all ages, without marked predisposing anatomic abnormalities and moderate/severe osteochondral lesions, who suffered recurrent dislocation of the patella.

Rigidfix and Intrafix fixations of allogeneic tendon grafts in arthroscopic reconstruction of anterior cru-ciate ligament

Objective To evaluate the effects of Rigidfix and Intrafix fixations of allogeneic tendon grafts for arthroseopie reeonstruetion of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Methods From March 2003 to September 2006, 56 cases who had been definitely diagnosed as ACL ruptures by arthroscopy received liga-ment reconstruction with deep-frozen allogeneic anterior tibial muscle tendon. The tendon was fixed by Rigidfix and Intrafix systems. Systematical rehabilitation training was conducted postoperatively. The patients were followed up for subjective symptoms. Motions of the knee joint were examined, and the anterior drawer, Laehman and pivot shift tests were conducted. The knee joint functions were evaluated by Lysholm scoring system. Results The follow-up averaged 2.3 (1.5～5.0) years. Only 2 cases complained of unstable feelings in heavy and violent activities. At the final follow-up, the motion of the treated knee joint ranged from -5° to 0° in extension and from 120° to 130° in flexion. The anterior drawer, Lachman and pivot shift tests were negative. Lysholm scores showed improvement in knee joint functions, rising from 48.2±5.3 preoper-atively to 91.1±4.2 postoperatively (P<0.05). Conclusion The Rigidfix and Intrafix fixations of allogeneic tendon grafts can have satisfactory effects in arthroscopic ACL reconstruction.

Application of PPIP in operation room and nursing

Objective To explore the application of parents' presence induction program (PPIP) during anesthesia induction in children in the operation room and the nursing. Methods 86 children patients (1~11 years old) who would accept the operation were randomly divided into the observation and the control group (n=43 in each group). The observation group was accompanied by their parents when the children accepted the anesthesia induction under the instruction of nurses. But the patients were not present in the control group, and the patients were leaded into the operation room directly by the nurses to accept the anesthesia induction. Blood pressure and pulse changes before and after the anesthesia induction of these children patients were observed. The feeling of their heads of family before the operation and the satisfaction about PPIP were investigated. Results Blood pressure and pulses in the control group were significantly higher than those in the observation group before they were leaded into the operation room (P<0.01). 95% of heads of family hoped to accompany their children when they accepted the anesthesia induction, and 93.7% of heads of family wanted to take part in the PPIP. The satisfaction rate about PPIP was 95% after the completion of PPIP. Conclusions There are many profits about PPIP, such as mitigating the fear and anxiety of children and relaxing the unstable feeling of their heads of families before the anesthesia, and reducing the quantity of pre-anesthetic medications. These are helpful to the anesthesia induction and the cooperation of doctor patients. It is a best anesthesia induction mode worthy to be extended in the operation room. Key words: Parents' presence; Pediatric; Anesthesia induction: Nursing

"Hitomishiri" as a Japanese concept of stranger anxiety and anthropophobia.

SummaryWe have considered a feeling of “Hito‐mishiri” and anthropophobia as a state of personal relations that is closely related to the special consciousness that one realizes oneself to belong to the inside or the outside circle, postulating that a feeling of shame underlies “Hitomishiri”.The statistical survey of the images over “Hitomishiri” revealed that double‐structural characteristics is seen in a feeling of personal relations.In this connection anthropophobia and “Hitomishiri” were also discussed. “Hitomishiri”, however, should be considered in another aspects when it is felt in a certain personal relations; one of the aspects is a response to one's consciousness of others arising from one's awareness of own body. These two kinds of consciousness are two cooperative alternatives for the mental integrity; one's own consciousness corresponds to others‘, and in consequently both interact with each other as two cooperative alternative factors for the mental integrity in which, if one becomes conscious, others respond to it.Therefore, a feeling of “Hitomishiri” forms a pair with one's awareness of body, normally an unnoticed, neutral background for consciousness, which is obtained through one's sense that feels something from with in a certain physical state, as the relations of one in the inside to others in the outside circle is disclosed by the emotional disturbance in one's environs. It seems to be characteristic of hypochondriac trait, that it is initiated in the proess where one experiences a unpleasant, unstable feeling, and trys to exclude it because one always lives with pleasant, stable feelings with those who are in the same inside circle.For this reason, we should not ignore the historical background with regard to that a desire for self approval is controlled by the emotional, cultural conditions in Japan. It seems to be somewhat difficult at present to perform detailed analysis of “Hitomishiri,”“shame”, and anthropophobia, because there are few of comparative studies on them available.If we continue investigation of anthropophobia and orthopsiaphobia in the direction on as so far discussed, it will serve to make deeper analysis of these psychological disturbances that are popular in Japan.

多層建築の構造設計について

The authers feel that the structural design of a tall building based on the deformation is as important as the design based on the stress and strength. There is a limitation in interstory deflections because of the difficulty of design of details which can follow to a larg deflection, increase of bending moment at the lower columns by vertical loads, producing negative stope restoring force characteristics in the plastic range, and unstable feelings which be given to the people in the building. The limitatation of deflections adopted in this paper is 1/300 of the story height or less than that, and calculation of earthquake responses is made by a digital electronic computer. The limitations are decided based on the allowable deflections of details usually used. Repeating the response calculation, comparison of the maximum deflections obtained with the given limitation, and correction of the values of rigidities, the systems in which the maximum deflections of elastic response to an earthquake or more accod to given values are calculated. It becomes clear that a parabolic rigidity distribution of a building in vertical direction shows preferable results in the response calculation, provided that the earthquake characteristics given to the building are not quite different from those of the E1 Centro and Taft Earthquakes.
