Abstract Introduction The assessment of recovery from burn injury is critical to improving pediatric health. However, there is a lack of brief, burn-specific measures to assess preschool-aged burn survivors’ health outcomes. We developed items pools for a new, parent-reported computer adaptive test based assessment of preschool-aged children’s burn outcomes. Methods Initial item pools were informed by the Preschool LIBRE Conceptual Model based on the International Classification for Children (ICF) and the Burn Outcomes Questionnaires (BOQ 0–5) and generated from a review of existing instruments assessing health and developmental outcomes in children 1–5 years. Candidate items underwent a review process to bin items together based on the underlying construct they assessed. Items were then winnowed down and further refined based on clinical expert consensus meetings. The winnowing process focused on ensuring items assessed abilities and behaviors that could be reliably determined by parent report, were age-relevant, and focused on health and developmental concepts that are important in the assessment of children’s burn recovery. To ensure item quality, we conducted parent cognitive interviews. In final reviews, we standardized item recall periods, response options, verb tense, and literacy demands. Results A total of 9,509 items were identified and extracted. Four item pool domains were established: communication and language development (42 items), physical functioning (53 items), psychological functioning (56 items), and social functioning (37 items). The respective item pools aim to assess: children’s ability to receive meaning and produce language; children’s gross and fine motor abilities; children’s emotions and behavior (internalizing and externalizing behaviors, dysregulation, toileting, response to trauma and resilience); and children’s social participation and abilities. Recall period and response options were refined for consistency for all 188 final items. Conclusions Four item pools were developed assessing four domains 1) communication and language development, 2) physical functioning, 3) psychological functioning and 4) social functioning for preschool-aged children. The item pools are currently being field-tested for the calibration and validation of the Preschool LIBRE CAT Profile. Applicability of Research to Practice This work is relevant to researchers and practitioners evaluating the effects of burn injury on preschool-aged children’s health and developmental outcomes.

Full textAbstract:
Preschool children who attempt novel NV-er compounds (like cat brusher) often misorder the noun and the verb, arguably based on sentential phrasal ordering (e.g., Clark, Hecht, & Mulford, 1986). In this study, we test this argument by replicating Clark’s prediction that children’s attempts will fall into predictable stages based on age and by comparing children’s production of NV-er compounds with another construction that violates sentential phrasal ordering: Verb-ingNoun phrases. Our studies show that we could not replicate the stages described by Clark and that children were more likely to produce Verb-ingNoun constructions in the target order than NV-er. However, the children’s constructions showed a contingency between the order of the elements and the children’s choice of morpheme, suggesting that they were often aiming for the target form. These results suggest that children do not misorder nouns and verbs in NV-er compounds because of phrasal ordering. We discuss possible alternatives for why NV-er compounds are difficult for preschool children.

Helminthiasis can be transmitted from animals to humans (zoonosis). Helminthiasis can cause cutaneus larva migrants, visceral larva migrant, and occular larva migrants. Cats are the most easily animals can found in public areas. cats have a habit of defecating in areas, such as dusty soil, gardens, sand pits, trash cans, and even children’s playgrounds. Proximity of human life with a stray cats is one of the potential that can helminthiasis transmited to humans. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of helminth eggs (species and number) observed in cat feces contaminating public areas in Surabaya. Cross-sectional study have been observations cats existense and examination laboratory of 180 cat fecal samples were collected from canteens, markets, villages, schools, and parks across 5 areas in Surabaya. Helminth eggs present in fecal samples were identified using direct smear, sedimentation, and flotation methodes, and quantified as fecal egg count (eggs per gram of feces) with McMasster method. The test results positive for helminthiasis if found one or more types of helminth eggs in fecal samples. Helminth eggs were present in 68 (37.8%) of the 180 cat fecal samples contaminating public areas in Surabaya. Results of chi-squared analysis confirmed the prevalence of helminth eggs in cat fecal samples contaminating canteen, markets, villages, schools, and parks in Surabaya (p > 0.05). The species causing environmental contamination included Ancylostoma sp. eggs, Toxocara cati eggs, and Toxascaris leonina eggs. The level of environmental contamination, as assessed using ANOVA, was 200 eggs per gram of feces.

AbstractThe aim of the study was to describe the exposure to dog (Can f 1) and cat (Fel d 1) allergens within homes of very young children living with and without pets, and to assess the validity of the interview on pets for predicting the actual exposure to pet allergens in house dust. House dust samples were collected in 275 dwellings from the mattresses, children’s bedroom and kitchen floors. In the laboratory, dust samples were analyzed for Can f 1 and Fel d 1 using monoclonal antibody enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). The majority of households (79.3%) had neither a dog nor a cat living in the home over the past 6 months preceding the survey. Dog allergen above 2 μg/g dust were found in 22.5% of homes and 14.2% of homes contained dog allergen above 10 μg/g of house dust. In the total study sample, cat allergen above 1 μg/g of dust were found in 12.7% of homes, and 3.3% of homes contained Fel d 1 levels greater than 8 μg/g of dust. The majority of children (75.0%) with reported ownership of dogs were exposed to Can f 1 levels above 2 μg/g of house dust, and 73.1% of children with cats at home were exposed to Fel d 1 concentrations above 1 μg/g house dust. The results of the study showed that post-test probability of the true exposure to Can f 1 above 2 μg/g dust in houses with positive interview on indoor dogs was 75.0% (95%CI: 61.7–84.8%). On the other hand, the prediction of exposure estimated from the interview data on indoor dogs produced 12.6% of false negatives (95% CI: 9.9–15.8%). Similarly, the post-test probability of the true exposure to Fel d 1 above 1 μg/g dust in houses with positive interview on indoor cats was 73.1% (95%CI: 55.1–85.7%). On the other hand, the interview data produced 6.4% false negatives (95% CI: 4.6–9.0%). In conclusion, the study demonstrated that homes in Poland with pet ownership are important reservoir of Can f 1 and Fel d 1 allergens with levels that might induce allergic symptoms. Even in homes of children without a dog or cat indoors, there was a higher prevalence of pet allergens at the levels above allergic sensitisation thresholds. This may have an important implication for epidemiologic studies on pet related allergy and prevention practice.

AIMS: The study sought to determine the factors associated with prior knowledge about toxoplasmosis, and to assess what participants learned after reading an educational handout. METHODS: Participants were recruited at two sites in California: a public meeting about water quality in Morro Bay; and at the Women Infants and Children’s Nutrition Program office or La Leche League meetings in Yolo County. Demographic differences between sites were compared using Fisher’s exact test, and change in knowledge before and after reading the handout using Mantel-Haenszel methodology. RESULTS: Non-Hispanic white participants were more likely than those of Hispanic ethnicity (62% vs. 20%, respectively) to have prior knowledge about toxoplasmosis. The most common source of information was newspapers (36%). Only 16% had obtained information from medical professionals. After reading the handout, 85% of participants identified Toxoplasma gondii as a parasite and 98% identified cats as the source of oocysts. Ninety-eight percent of participants who read the handout were aware they could acquire infection from cat faeces, 94% from meat, 78% from soil or in utero, and 69% from unwashed vegetables. Fewer (59%) recognized all sources. CONCLUSIONS: Knowledge about toxoplasmosis increased in all areas evaluated, but gaps remained, particularly with regard to environmental sources of Toxoplasma gondii infection and clinical manifestations of disease. In addition to care in handling cat faeces/litter and avoidance of undercooked meat, healthcare providers counseling pregnant women should emphasize the importance of wearing gloves when gardening, hand washing after handling soil or meat, and rinsing fresh vegetables thoroughly before consumption.

L’objectif de ce travail de recherche est de concevoir une nouvelle méthode de cotation et d’interprétation de l’épreuve projective CAT (Children’s Apperception Test). Cette nouvelle méthode que nous avons appelé « méthode des trois axes » est fondée sur les connaissances et techniques des épreuves thématiques de la méthode projective francophone (Ecole de Paris). Elle est basée en partie sur les considérations théoriques de Roussillon (1995, 1997) concernant la métapsychologie projective des processus qui modélise le trajet psychique allant de la perception du stimulus de la planche à la verbalisation de la réponse projective (processus de symbolisation). Elle est constituée de 3 axes, 16 catégories de cotation et d’un total de 83 procédés de cotation. La méthode des trois axes a été appliquée à 500 protocoles d’enfants répartis en deux groupes distincts : un groupe d’enfants dit « tout-venant » rencontré en milieu scolaire (n=380) et un groupe d’enfants dit « consultant » rencontré en institution de soin (n=120). Les données ont été analysées selon une approche descriptive et une approche comparative basée sur trois groupes d’âge : 3 ans, 4-6 ans et 6-12 ans. Nous avons également réalisé une comparaison inter-juges portant sur la cotation avec la méthode actuellement utilisée (méthode de Boekholt) et la méthode des trois axes que nous proposons. A partir des résultats, nous proposons une théorie de la méthode CAT qui comporte trois parties : le dispositif de la passation, le manuel de cotation des procédés et le manuel d’interprétation des données qui comprendra des repères normatifs. Cette théorie de la méthode doit permettre aux psychologues cliniciens utilisateurs de cet outil d’évaluer plus précisément le fonctionnement psychique de l’enfantThe aim of this research is to develop a new method of rating and interpreting the Children’s Apperception Test (CAT). This new method wich we have called “la méthode des trois axes” is built on techniques from the academic “Ecole de Paris” for projective methods. It is based in part on the theory of Roussillon (1995, 1997) concerning the projective metapsychology of processes which describes the psychic path from the perception of the stimulus of the plate to the verbalization of the response. This grid is built with 3 axis of description, including 16 categories of rating and 83 items used to rate the responses in application to the ten plates of CAT. “La méthode des trois axes” was applied to 500 children in two groups : a group of “all-comers” met in school (n=380) and a group of patients in care institution (n=120). The data was analyzed using a descriptive approach based on three age groups : 3 years old, 4-6 years old and 6-12 years old. We also performed the assessment of inter-rater reliability on the rating with the method curently used (Boekholt’s method) and “la méthode des 3 axes” that we propose. On the basis of the results, we propose a theory of the CAT method, which consists of three parts: the test administration, the process rating manual and the interpretation manual which include normative references. This method will enable clinicians psychologists who use this tool to more accurately assess the psychic functioning of the child

Performance of Children’s Apperception Test (CAT) of Children with Emotional Disturbance, Conduct problem, and Emotional Disturbance with Conduct problem Jung-pin Chang Abstract Purpose and aims: Emotional disturbances in children are often accompanied by a complex set of other problems, such as aggressive behaviour, anxiety, irritability and physical symptoms. Children with these emotional disturbances sometimes also exhibit co-morbid disorders such as conduct disorder. This particular co-morbidity, emotional disturbances compounded with conduct disorder, makes it very difficult for one to determine a child's clinical symptoms. There are serious implications for emotional disturbances coupled with conduct problem both for the child and for society as a whole. The co-morbidity also renders prognosis more difficult. However, it may also lead to a reduction in other undesirable behaviour such as aggression. More research on the specific characteristics of emotional disturbances coupled with conduct problem needs to be done. This study attempts to understand the major features of emotional disturbances, conduct problem and co-morbidity of the two, using analyses of the narrative themes produced using the Children’s Apperception Test (CAT) and the reaction forms, to raise parents' and teachers' awareness of psychological pathology in children and to serve as a reference for clinical differential diagnosis. Method: For this study we used a total of 35 children from north Taiwan: ten for the control group, ten exhibiting emotional disturbances, seven with conduct problem and eight with emotional disturbances accompanied with conduct problem. The Beck Youth Inventories of Emotional and Social Impairment (BYI-II), ADHD and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children – Fourth Edition (WISC-IV) were employed to screen and group subjects. All of the children were given the Children’s Apperception Test, and all of the stories were recorded and transcribed. The present author and an expert analysed the transcripts using qualitative research and grounded theory on the themes which emerged from the children's stories, together with their reaction forms, and categorized and defined any trends which developed therein, until a consensus was reached. Finally, the ANOVA statistical analysis test was used to investigate the significant differences among the four groups. Results: The study showed that there were clear differences between the emotional disturbances group and the other groups in the “negative family/ object functions or relations” theme; that there were relatively clear differences between the conduct problem group and the other groups in terms of “aggressive behaviour” themes and reaction forms such as “resistance to associations”, “poor narrative content” and “challenges to authority.” No conspicuous features were discerned in the stories from the co-morbid disorders group (children with emotional disturbances and conduct problem). Conclusion: This study revealed that when the child's story indicates that caregivers are not looking after the child properly, an unstable family situation, or any complaints about the caregiver, one should look into whether the child concerned has any emotional disturbances; if there is any mention of aggressive behaviour or actual descriptions of harm in the stories, or if there are any instances of impoliteness or disobedience by the child during the course of the tests, it is important to take note whether the child concerned has any conduct problem. This study inferred that the co-morbid disorders group is the consequence of disguise for emotional disturbances, especially on boys. The discoveries of the present study can provide parents, teachers and clinical professionals advance indication of problems in children via story-telling using pictures, and therefore make advance intervention possible. Furthermore, if children behaviour appeared conduct problem, it is more important to take concern on their interior emotional disturbances, instead of exterior conduct problem.

Dissertação de Mestrado apresentada ao Instituto Superior de Psicologia Aplicada para obtenção de grau de Mestre na especialidade de Psicologia Clínica.O principal objectivo do nosso estudo foi o de analisar se as crianças com diagnóstico de organização depressiva e de organização psicótica manifestariam nos resultados das suas provas projectivas de desenho e, complementarmente, na prova temática infantil, elementos que indiciassem funcionamentos psíquicos diferentes. Utilizámos uma amostra composta por cinco crianças com diagnóstico prévio de organização depressiva e outras cinco crianças com diagnóstico prévio de organização psicótica. A cada criança foram administradas as provas de desenho da figura humana, da família e do desenho livre e, as provas temáticas infantis (C.A.T-A/H.), fazendo-se a sua análise e interpretação. Verificou-se a existência de características diferenciadoras de que se destaca, para a organização depressiva, a agressividade reprimida e, para a organização psicótica os dentes, as mãos em flor, garfo ou estrela, a fusão dos membros superiores e inferiores, o desligamento das partes do corpo, a ausência de limites internos e externos, a robotização das figuras e, a inclusão de símbolos irreais e bizarros. As organizações depressivas manifestaram menor ambiguidade e maior coesão na percepção corporal, ligação concreta ao real, percebendo-o a sua totalidade. As organizações psicóticas manifestaram distorção corporal, distanciamento ao real, percebendo-o em detalhes e, clivando-o sem o abranger na sua totalidade.
The goal of our study was to analyse if children with depressive or psychotic diagnosis would demonstrate individual differences on their results of drawing projective proofs and Children's Apperception Test (C.A.T.) and, if these individual differences could give indications of different psychological functioning. We used a sample with five children classified as depressive organization and others five children classified as psychotic organization. It was administrated to each the child drawing proofs of the human figure, the family and free design and the Children's Apperception Test (C.A.T-A/H.) that was followed by analysis and interpretation. The evidence demonstrated different characteristics between the two types of organization: for depressive organization the must salient was the repressed aggression; for psychotic organization the must salient were, the teeth, the hands with flower, fork or star format, the merge of superior and inferior members, the disconnection between several body pieces, the absence of external and internal bonds, the figures automation and the inclusion of unreal and bizarre symbols. Depressive organizations manifested less ambiguity and more body perception cohesion, more concrete connection with the reality and a global perception of it. Psychotic organizations manifested body distortion, disconnection with the reality, with partial and detailed perception of reality.
