Orphans represent a significant population worldwide, and orphan homes are responsible for providing support for holistic development in the lives of children. The purpose of the study was to investigate the psychological, social, and educational challenges faced by orphan children in orphan homes. The theoretical framework of the current study was based on the Attachment Theory by Bowlby, which states how early caregiver relationships influence the psychological, social, and educational development of orphan children in orphan homes. All of the orphan children in SOS Children Village district Sargodha made up the population of the current study. A sample of 206 orphan children was selected randomly from SOS Children Village district Sargodha. Reliable data were gathered using a quantitative survey study design, and the instrument's reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's Alpha, which was found to be 0.89. The obtained data were analyzed using descriptive statistics such as mean, standard deviations, frequency percentages, and inferential statistics, for instance, the t-test. The results showed that gender was found to be significant regarding psychological, social, and educational challenges. In addition, female orphan children have a greater mean score as compared to males concerning psychological and social challenges. While, concerning educational challenges male orphans have a greater mean score as compared to female orphan children. However, to overcome these challenges it is suggested that it is essential to create efficient programs that can recognize and tackle the emotional, social, and academic difficulties orphaned children confront.

Full textAbstract:
Wellbeing of an orphan caregiver affects the child-rearing practice, which in turn could affect the growth and development of the orphaned child. Challenges faced by women orphan caregivers make caring a more extraneous task. A qualitative study was designed, to investigate the challenges faced by women orphan caregivers. Data was collected from SOS children village, an internationally recognized orphanage located in Karachi, Pakistan. An open ended interview was conducted with 17 women orphan caregivers employed at the organization through interview schedule. Various themes were identified. Two major themes indicating challenges were identified; professional or organizational level and personal level that were further divided in sub themes and analyzed. Results indicated that caregivers themselves were abandoned and suffered from psychological disturbances and lacked in awareness of effective coping skills. Orphan caregivers faced distress due to inability to effectively handle hectic routine at the orphanage, low salary, and lack of knowledge and skill to address diverse needs of all children. Overall, caring for orphans is a challenging job and it is recommended that orphan caregivers are provided with professional support to cope with psychological issues; and training on caregiving knowledge and skills to effectively handle children with diverse needs. This could eventually help in improving wellbeing of the caregivers and enhancing overall development of the orphans.

Full textAbstract:
Existing behavioral studies have suggested that individuals with early life stress usually show abnormal emotional processing. However, limited event-related brain potentials (ERPs) evidence was available to explore the emotional processes in children orphaned by parental HIV/AIDS (“AIDS orphans”). The current study aims to investigate whether there are behavioral and neurological obstacles in the recognition of emotional faces in AIDS orphans and also to further explore the processing stage at which the difference in facial emotion recognition exists. A total of 81 AIDS orphans and 60 non-orphan children were recruited through the local communities and school systems in Henan, China. Participants completed a computer version of the rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) task while recording ERPs. Behavioral results showed that orphans displayed higher response accuracy and shorter reaction time than the control (ps < 0.05). As for the ERPs analysis, the attenuated amplitude of N170 (i.e., an early component sensitive to facial configuration) was observed in AIDS orphans compared to the non-orphan control with happy and neutral faces; P300 (i.e., an endogenous component for affective valence evaluation in emotional processing) also showed significant differences in parietal lobe between groups, the non-orphan control group produced larger P300 amplitudes than orphans (p < 0.05). The results suggested that compared to the control group, AIDS orphans showed impaired facial emotion recognition ability with reduced brain activation.

Full textAbstract:
An orphan is a term used to refer to someone who has been left by their parents while still underage. Providing support for orphans is a commendable activity. Supporting orphans has many virtues, as stated in the following Hadith: Narrated by Abu Ya'la and Thobrani, Shahih At Targhib Al Albani: "Whoever includes an orphan among two Muslim parents in their meals and drinks, providing for their needs, will surely enter Paradise.". The first step in supporting orphans is to find them. Searching for orphan data is difficult to accomplish if we rely solely on manual data collection. Sometimes the obtained data does not match the desired requirements. To help facilitate this step, an information system for managing orphan data is created. The aim is to simplify the management of orphan data and assist the community in searching for orphan data. The development of this orphan data management information system utilizes the waterfall method, which includes the stages of analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance using the Laravel framework. The result of this research is a web-based information system for managing orphan data, with a case study in Karangsari Village, Kalimanah, Purbalingga Regency.

International Journal of Human Rights in Healthcare 12, no. 2 (May 7, 2019): 163–76. http://dx.doi.org/10.1108/ijhrh-02-2018-0015.
Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to inspect the potential mediation pathways among emotional empathy, personality traits and coping strategies in orphan and non-orphan students. Additionally, it designed to investigate the association of coping strategies with emotional empathy and personality traits. Design/methodology/approach Purposive sampling technique and cross-sectional design were employed in current study. The data of 130 adolescents (institutionalized orphans, n= 62; school students, n=68) were included from different high schools and orphanages of Rawalpindi and Islamabad, Pakistan, in 2017. Three instruments, emotional empathy scale (Mehrabian and Epstein, 1972; Shazia, 2004), coping of problem experience (Carver, 1989; Akhtar, 2005), and Eysenck personality questionnaire (Naqvi and Kamal, 2010; Eysenck, 1964; Eysenck and Eysenck, 1994), were employed to measure personality traits, emotional empathy and coping strategies in orphan and non-orphan students. Findings Mediation analyses illustrated that personality traits relegated active avoidance coping strategy through emotional empathy in orphan students. On contrary, the study findings demonstrated that neurotic personality promoted positive coping strategy through emotional empathy in non-orphan students. Research limitations/implications The methodological limitations of this study are that the sample is of 130 participants that limits the generalizability of its results; furthermore, it was done on only the male orphans students of only one institute. Further research can be done on different orphanages to enhance the generalizability of results. This study included orphan and non-orphan students from the two cities of Pakistan; consequently, its findings may not be generalizable to the whole population. In the future, cross-sectional and experimental researches working with more assorted data could help elucidate the mechanisms by which interpersonal factors affect and stimulate coping strategies in orphans and high school students. Practical implications This paper exposes a number of ways for upcoming future studies. This study findings can be employed to enhance knowledge and offer assistance for orphans, on how to identify and get help from coping resources to tackle various problems and how to build new psychological preventions and interventions strategies in the Pakistani society. There still exists a need to find out the effect of emotion, empathy on personality types in relation to different environmental conditions. The findings have implications for pedagogical intervention as such improvements can be initiated in the pedagogical context. Social implications This study comprised only orphan and non-orphan students from two twin cities of Pakistan; consequently, its findings may not be applicable to the whole population. In future, cross-sectional and experimental researches with more assorted data will assist clarify the mechanism that interpersonal factors affect and stimulate coping strategies in high school students. Originality/value Study findings proposed that coping strategies can be promoted by interpersonal factors such as personality traits and empathy to tackle different orphan’s psychological problem in various negative situation.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Orphan-hood is a stage that includes numerous mental and emotional problems. Lack of control on emotions puts orphans at risk of uneasiness. The aim of this study was to see the relationship between anger expressions on mental wellbeing and emotional expressions of orphans and non-orphans. Methods: This was a cross-sectional survey conducted from April to June 2021. Data were collected from the orphan and non-orphan adolescent students aged 13–19 years, studying in different institutes of Haripur, Pakistan. After informed consent, State Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI), Short Warwick Edinburg Well-being Scale (SWEMWBS), and Emotional expressivity questionnaires were self-administered by authors and analysed on SPSS-20. Result: Sample size was 200 orphan and non-orphan adolescent students, with equal proportion of males and females. Anger expression was positively linked with emotional expressivity (r=0.29, p<0.001), and anger expression was negatively linked with mental wellbeing (r= -0.45, p<0.001). Orphan students scored high on anger expression (27.62±5.4) and emotional expressivity (55.28±5.79) as compare to non-orphans (23.59±5.79 and 53.31±5.99 respectively). Conclusion: Anger expression is positively linked with emotional expressivity and negatively linked with mental wellbeing. Girls are shyer to express their feelings compared to boys. Boys are more engaged in verbal and physical aggression than girls. Orphan boys show more aggression because they face a lot of adjustment and many other difficulties in institutions.

Introduction: The word orphan comes from the Greek word ‘Orfanos’ and refers to a child permanently bereaved of or abandoned by his or her parents. Methods: A non-experimental descriptive comparative design has been adopted for the present study. The sample of the present study comprises orphan children residing in an orphanage and non-orphan children residing in selected areas of Bagalkot. The sample comprised 30 orphans and 30 non-orphans aged between 10 and 16 years. The data were collected by using self-report, structured closed-ended questionnaires for socio-demographic variables of children, self-administered WHO Quality of life BREF scale, and PSS stress scale. The data obtained were analysed with the help of descriptive and inferential statistics. Result: Findings related to the comparison between the level of stress among the orphan and non-orphan children revealed that majority of orphan children (76.66%) had about moderate stress, 23.33% of the orphan children had high stress, and none of the children had a low level of stress, whereas among non-orphan children, majority (90%) had moderate stress, 10% had low level stress, and none of them had high level stress. The findings related to the comparison of levels of quality of life among the orphan and non-orphan children reveal that a high percentage of orphan children (66.66%) had a moderate quality of life and some of them (33.33%) had a poor quality of life, whereas a high number of non-orphan children (66.66%) had a very good quality of life and some (33.33%) had a good quality of life. No significant association was found between the quality of life and stress scores with the socio-demographic variables of orphan and non-orphan children. Conclusion: The study concluded that orphan children need to improve their quality of life and decrease their level of stress.

Background: Malnutrition is considered a complicated public health issue and depends on multiple factors. Hygienic behavior is related to orphan children’s growth, nutritional outcomes, and sound health. The study’s aim was to assess the hygiene behaviors and nutritional status of orphan students in Bangladesh. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional quantitative study was conducted in three orphanage centers. A total of 120 respondents were interviewed. A descriptive analysis of the collected data was performed. Results: The monthly mean and median expenditure of orphans was 2000±475 BDT (20$). The number of toilets and waiting time for the orphan to use them are closely associated (χ2= 33.38; Cramer’s V=0.44, df=13; Sig; p<0.001). On average, an orphan waits 32.20 minutes to use the toilet facility when they need it. Orphan family income and disposal of waste in the toilet of the orphan center are strongly associated (χ2=99.19; Cramer’s V=0.49, df=39; Sig; p<0.001). There was a significant association between attending toilet-related hygiene and types of diseases. Hair fall, muscle wasting, fever, and xerosis of the skin were common diseases among orphans. Types of diseases orphans and schedule for the dietary chart are strongly associated (χ2=23.35; Cramer’s V=0.37, df=24; Sig; p<0.001). Conclusions: Integrated approach is required to counter the extent of malnutrition among orphans. Teachers of orphanages should receive proper training so that they are able to take care of the physical and mental health of the orphan children.

Background In Africa, approximately 25 million people live with HIV/AIDS and 12 million children are orphaned. Although evidence indicates that orphans risk losing opportunities for adequate education, health care, and future employment, the immediate effects of orphanhood on child nutritional status remain poorly understood. Objective This paper assesses the nutritional impact of orphanhood, with particular emphasis on taking account of various factors potentially confounding or masking these impacts. Methods Child anthropometry and orphan status were examined in 23 Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys and Demographic and Health Surveys throughout sub-Saharan Africa, which were subsequently merged into larger, region-specific datasets (East, West, and Southern Africa). To compare orphans and nonorphans, linear regression and probit models were developed, taking account of orphan status and type, presence of a surviving parent in the household, household structure, child age and sex, urban versus rural residence, and current wealth status. Results Few differences emerged between orphans and nonorphans in controlled and uncontrolled comparisons, regardless of orphan type, presence of surviving parent, or household structure. Age differentials did confound nutritional comparisons, although in the counterintuitive direction, with orphans (who were 8 months older on average) becoming less malnourished when age differences were taken into account. Wealth did appear to be associated with orphanhood status, although it did not significantly confound nutritional comparisons. Conclusions Orphans were not consistently more malnourished than nonorphans, even when potential confounding variables were examined. Since household wealth status is likely to change after becoming affected by HIV, ruling out wealth as a potential confounder would require more detailed, prospective studies.

In the middle of the 17th century a transformation of states can be observed. The strives of early absolutist states were aimed at the increase of their economic and, in turn, their military potential. These goals were served by social policy measures aimed at increasing economic effi ciency and increasing state revenues. The development of central administration and regulations for orphan aff airs also served to maintain labour force and economic potential. The preservation of orphans’ property was intended to keep the economy going, and in the case of destitutes, orphanages intended to concentrate the workforce. The measures introduced in the German principalities soon appeared in the provinces of the Habsburg Monarchy. In the first quarter of the 17th century, the first theoretical work on orphan aff airs was written, and in the second half of the century it was followed by the first royal decree based on the principles set out in this volume. The aim of these provisions was to ensure the preservation and the control of the assets of the orphans by state means. Similar provisions to the Monarchy’s provinces were enacted in the Hungarian Kingdom in the last third of the 17th century. The offices introduced in the Austrian provinces, the separate Orphan’s Court (árvaszámvevőszék), the keeping of register on orphans (árvakönyv), and the continuous scrutiny of guardians were introduced in the free royal towns in the first third of the 18th century. All of this went parallel with the administrative reforms ordered in towns. The reform measures introduced regarding orphan affairs were realized at a varying pace one town to another, but by the end of the first third of the 18th century, the orphan regulations developed in the Austrian provinces had become established in all the free royal towns.

Eligible households with orphans had selected using a systematic random sampling method. The lottery method was used when more than one eligible study participants live in the household. An OR with 95% CI was performed to measure the strength of association between each dependent variable and independent variables. Variables with p<0.05 were declared statistically significant.Primary outcomeThe main outcome of this study was the prevalence of undernutrition among orphaned under 5 and its associated factors.ResultsPrevalence of stunting, wasting and underweight in orphan children under 5 were 12.2%, 37.8% and 21.7%, respectively. The prevalnce of wasting peaks among age group of 36–47 months (42.5%), whereas underweight peaks in 48–59 months (27.7%). Food insecurity, wealth index, family size, vitamin A supplementation, diarrhoea, fever 2 weeks before the survey, children under 5 and parents’ death were associated with undernutrition.ConclusionThe prevalence of stunting, wasting and underweight among orphan children under 5 was significantly high. Multisectoral collaborative efforts towards access to health services, improving income-generating activities, micronutrient supplementation and social support and protection targeting orphan and vulnerable populations have to be built up.

Orphan drug products (e.g. drugs and biologics) in the United States are those that treat people with rare chronic diseases, often cancer or metabolic disease. The rare disease condition being treated by these orphan drugs must serve a patient population of less than 200,000 people in the U.S. in order to earn the orphan drug product title. Just as the disease conditions are seen as “orphans,” so, we assert is the thermochemical understanding of the drugs themselves in terms of the chemical structures that define those drugs. This article illustrates this orphan thermochemical status for a recent series of orphan drugs.

Orphans are a social phenomenon that is always present in society both developed and developing countries. In every region there are always orphans who need education, livelihood and others, ironically they still lack systematic and integrated assistance from the government or the environment. Orphan / orphan word means a child who loses or is left dead by his father before he goes on (Lisanul 'Arab, 12/645, al-Mu'jam al-Wasith, 2/1063) The condition of orphans causes the loss of their hopes to live their lives, especially for disadvantaged orphans. An orphan is a child whose father has died. Accommodating and caring for orphans who come from families unable to aim to help orphans in order to complete their formal education in accordance with their education. Children must get serious attention, lest they are displaced due to family economic limitations, they must be helped to rise from adversity by embracing and introducing them to education, so that we have sufficient future leaders.

Orphan diseases are all medical conditions that impact 0.65 to 1 out of every 1000 people, according to the World Health Organization. Since these are not financially stable and feasible, they are typically not explored for their pathophysiology or the emerging therapy alternatives. On January 28, 1983, in the USA a law known as the Orphan Drug Act was formed to promote the study, creation, and approval of medications for rare diseases. There are currently as many medications for other infectious diseases as there are for tropical infectious diseases, with 11 pharmaceuticals (4.87%) recognized as orphan drugs. Several medications having orphan status are used to treat illnesses that no longer meet the requirements for orphan designation. Some businesses also manufacture and produce orphan medications. Nuclear cloning, rational drug design, and high throughput screening are all methods used in drug discovery programs that could lead to the development of new medicines. This article discusses orphan drugs, medical orphans, rare diseases, the orphan drug act, orphan drug design, the global market scenario of orphan drugs and various databases that contain information about orphan drugs. Patients who have been ignored by for-profit medication discovery efforts have hope for the future.

The objective of this study was to assess the gender differences of maladaptive cognitive schema among orphans in Dakahlia governorate orphanages. A cross-sectional comparative study included 152 orphan boys and 48 orphan girls in all orphanages homes in Dakahlia governorate, Egypt. Data collection tools included a structured interview questionnaire for personal data; early maladaptive schema questionnaire-short form (EMSQ-SF). The mean score of the total YSQ and all the subscales, except self-sacrifice and unrelenting standards, are significantly higher among females than males. Attention should be given to the psychological care of the orphans especially security, trust, confidence, and autonomy with more attention to orphan girls.

Рresents results of the self-activation the specialists’ (N=26) and secondary schools teachers (N=26), as well as orphans (N=50) and adolescents from families (N=50). The study was conducted during 2017 — 2018 years after the Resolution of the Russian Federation Government N 481 output about the orphan organizations activities, aimed at family life of children and the creation close to family conditions for orphans who are not transferred to the family for different reasons. It demanded of specialists engaged in orphans parenting to acquire such professional competencies that would contribute to the preparation for successful integration into society orphan graduates. These include the ability to self-activation. It’s demonstrated that parenting orphan adolescents specialists have less self-activating characteristics in comparison with secondary schools teachers. These differences are also typical for orphans with whom they work, in comparison with adolescents from families.

Full textAbstract:
The practical activity of orphan-care in Social Work has received unquestionable and resounding globally attention. However, the skewed care of orphans towards women and its associated bio-psychosocial and economic challenges in the rural communities deserves special investigation and analysis. This article discusses women’s burden of orphan-care and associated bio-psychosocial and economic challenges experienced by carers in Alice in the Eastern Cape Province in South Africa. Using a qualitative research approach and voluntary purposive sampling to ensure that carers of orphans were engaged in the study, individual face-to-face interviews were conducted to engage twenty caregivers. Data were analysed thematically and backed by existing literature. The findings showed that women caregivers of orphans experienced a plethora of bio-psychosocial and economic issues when caring for orphans in the rural communities. The article makes relevant recommendations for the profession of Social Work and stakeholders of orphan-care.

BACKGROUND: As many as, 45% of orphaned children and adolescents living in orphanages experience behavioral and emotional problems. Several literature reviews on the intervention of emotional and behavioral problems in orphan children and adolescents have been widely conducted. However, there is paucity in the reviews of emotional and behavioral problem interventions in the orphan group based on the type of group approach used in published articles. AIM: This study aimed to synthesize the results on the interventions of emotional and behavioral problems in orphan children and adolescents aged 7–20 years who live in institutions or orphanages. METHODS: This research was a scoping review. This review used three databases comprising PubMed, Science Direct, and Wiley Library Online. The inclusion criteria were experimental research designs and cohort studies, published in the 2009–2019, discussed emotional and behavioral problem’s intervention in orphan, and written in English. The exclusion criteria were that the research subjects had severe mental and psychosocial disorders such as autism, mental retardation, and mental disorders. The authors used three categories of keywords; the first keyword and its synonym were “intervention, treatment.” The second keyword focused on behavioral problems, which was “behavioral difficulties,” and the third keyword focuses on population and place, “orphan, institutions orphans, orphanages.” The article selection stage is described in detail in the flow diagram of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis. The critical appraisal stage used the checklist from Joanna Briggs Institute. RESULTS: Ten articles were found and selected for review. The main emotional and behavioral problems experienced by orphan children and adolescents include depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem, feelings of anger, and trauma. Other problems related, functional disorders, life satisfaction, the probability of suicide, and early (prodromal) symptoms of psychosis, also arise. There were six types of interventions given to overcome emotional and behavioral problems in orphan children and adolescents, but the interventions that are most often given are cognitive therapy, educational support, complementary, and alternative medicine. The approaches in groups that are often used in this review are the support group and the teaching-learning group. The combination of two or more approaches in one intervention can increase the success or effectiveness in overcoming emotional and behavioral problems. CONCLUSIONS: Depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, feeling anger, and trauma are main problems for orphans. To address these emotional and behavior problems, it is necessary to combine several interventions and a combination of group-based approaches.

Current research was carried out to investigate the level of depression, anxiety and stress among orphan young adults living in Bahawalpur City. The core aim of the research was to compare these variables among orphans in connection with their socio-economic status and gender. To collect the responses from the orphans DASS-21 scales was administered on (N=200) orphans via purposive sampling. This was a quantitative research with cross-sectional research design. The results from the collected data depicted a significant high level of psychological distress among the orphans belonging from middle class socio-economic status. This also depicted that the level of stress and depressiveness were higher in male orphans instead of female orphans. Furthermore, on the basis of the results it concludes that parental loss is a worse stressful life event to which no one can cope. It is long lasting mental stressor. Hence, the orphan needs social support from others. The results of this study are a message for authorities, psychologists and educationists to provide social help or support program to heal the stress, anxiety and depression of the orphans. Keywords: Stress, Depression, Anxiety, Orphan etc.

Billions of dollars in federal funding secured under the 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Law (BIL) has started flowing into US state coffers for the plugging and remediation of orphan oil and gas wells. Signed into law in November 2021, the BIL is a $1.2 trillion “once-in-a-generation investment” that includes $4.7 billion in funding to plug and remediate orphan wells across the nation. According to the US Department of the Interior (DOI), these legacy pollution sites are environmental hazards and jeopardize public health and safety by contaminating groundwater, emitting noxious gases and methane, littering the landscape with rusted and dangerous equipment, and harming wildlife. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimated in a 2020 inventory of greenhouse gas emissions that, on average, each unplugged abandoned oil and gas well emits 0.13 tons of methane per year. When multiplied by an estimated 2.1 million unplugged, abandoned oil and gas wells, the EPA estimated methane emissions of 276,472 tons in 2019, equivalent to roughly 9.5 mtpa of carbon dioxide (CO2) assuming a 100-year global warming potential (GWP) of 34. This is roughly 2.6% of total US energy-related methane emissions or roughly 0.2% of total US energy-related greenhouse gas emissions in 2019, assuming a 100-year GWP for methane of 34, according to a report published in Environmental Science & Technology. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change defines GWP as the cumulative radiative forcing, both direct and indirect effects, over a specified time horizon resulting from the emission of a unit mass of gas related to some reference gas. While the EPA pegs the number of orphaned wells in the millions, there are variations in the count, depending on how each state or organization defines what is and is not an orphaned well. A survey, for example, by the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission in 2018 put the range of orphaned and idle wells at around 560,000 to 1.1 million. According to the Railroad Commission of Texas (RRC), the regulatory body that oversees Texas oil and natural gas development, an orphan well is an inactive and unplugged well that has not produced oil or natural gas for a minimum of 12 months. But the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission defines an orphan as a well which has no owner or operator that can be found, or where the owner or operator is unwilling or unable to plug and abandon such a well. This JPT article described the hunt for the potentially hundreds of thousands of unknown, undocumented orphans across the country. In October 2021, the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) released a map showing the location of more than 81,000 documented orphan wells in 28 states that are eligible for funding under the BIL. In the spring of 2022, thanks in part to states documenting more than 40,000 additional orphan wells, EDF released an updated map showing more than 120,000 documented orphan wells in 30 states (Fig. 1).

Nowadays one of the important problems in Ukraine is the increase in the number of orphans and children deprived of parental care, which is an indicator of the social, economic, and political situation in society. One of the causes of orphancy is the loss of parents because of hostilities. Psychological problems of orphaned teenagers are determined by the lack of parental attention and love, early deprivation. The underdevelopment of identification mechanisms, as a result of such deprivation, becomes the cause of emotional coldness, aggressiveness, hostility, increased vulnerability, a feeling of loneliness, and the manifestation of negative accentuations of the adolescent's character. Objective. The research deals with the theoretical analysis of the problem of orphanhood and the psychological difficulties of orphan adolescents in the scientific literature, an empirical study of the psychological difficulties of orphan adolescents. Methods. To solve the set objective, we used a set of methods, such as the theoretical method – the analysis of expert sources; the empirical method – the method of diagnosing the level of subjective feeling of loneliness by D. Russell and M. Ferguson; the method of determining the accentuations of character by K. Leonhard; statistical methods – quantitative and qualitative analysis of results and correlation analysis by K. Pearson. The research was conducted on the basis of Sviatoshyn Children's Boarding Home in Kyiv. Thirty orphan adolescents participated in the reaearch: 15 girls, 15 boys. The results of an empirical study of the psychological difficulties of orphaned teenagers showed that they are dominated by high (30%) and medium (45%) levels of loneliness, and only 25% of respondents have a low level; the pronounced types of character accentuations are excitable (16,7%), hyperthymic (13,3%), affective-exalted (13,3%), emotional (16,7%). The results of the correlation analysis showed that the higher the level of loneliness, the greater the level of manifestation of demonstrative, stuck, excitable, hyperthymic, anxious, affective, emotional types of character accentuations; the lower the level of loneliness, the greater the manifestation of the following character accentuations: pedantic, dysthymic, cycloid. We see the prospects for further research in the development and approval of the program for the correction of psychological difficulties of orphaned teenagers.

The fundamental goal of the log-based fault-tolerant scheme is to bring the system into a consistent global state without any orphan inconsistence. However, the existing Alvisi’s No-Orphans Consistency Condition is only sufficient on condition that the set of local checkpoints of failure processes keep consistent always. Independent of the specific log-based checkpointing and rollback-recovery fault tolerant scheme, an extended orphan-free consistency condition is derived based on PWD assumption in this paper. The definitions of the orphan inconsistence among the process state and the nondeterministic event during a rollback recovery were extended. Finally the essential requirement for message logs was specified to eliminate the possible orphan inconsistence among the process state during a rollback recovery. By contrast, the proposal is a practical and efficient constraint for the orphan-free recovery.

Motivation has been considered the most contributing factor to the success of language learning. Motivation has some factors that affect the high or low scale of the motivation. Parents' support, for instance, claimed that parents involve the students' motivation, then what if the students who do not have parents or called as the orphan? This study scrutinizes the comparison of the orphan and non orphan student’s motivation. The design of this study was quantitative design, in which the study examined the difference between orphan and non-orphan students in terms of motivation in learning English as measured by questionnaire response scores. An Independent t-test was computed to answer research question. The participants involved in this study were a hundred students from the secondary level, including junior high school (n=66) and senior high school (n=34) participating in this study fifty (n=50) the students were orphans, and fifty (n=50) others were non-orphan. The result of the research question demonstrates that non-orphan Indonesian EFL learners had higher individual motivation and social motivation in learning English compared to orphan learners for individual motivation and social motivation. Since, the orphan has a lower motivation, the reasons for that phenomenon can be a potential further study.

Although there is an “yatim” term, “piatu” and “yatim piatu” term that developed in the midst of Indonesian society, still such understanding needs to be reviewed again. Because, in the literature of classical jurisprudence (fiqh klasik) and also in the Qur'an known term orphans (yatim) only. This scientific article is prepared using the literature study method. In order to know the Qur'anic view of orphan as the object of da'wah, the writer first searches the word orphan in Al-Qur'an by using Mu'jam Al-Qur'an by Muhammad Fuad 'Abd al-Baqiy. After that, the author describes in detail the orphan textually, then understands the context of the verses based on “asbab al-nuzul” and the “mufassir” opinion. Furthermore, the authors classify and conclude some matters relating to orphans as the object of da'wah contained in the Qur'an. Based on this, the author managed to reveal four things related to orphans namely; a) verses about orphans, b) classification of orphans as the object of da'wah perspectives of the Qur'an, c) social reality of orphans in the past in the Qur'an, d) da'wah approach to orphans perspective Al-Qur'an. Furthermore, this article is expected to be a contribution for da'wah practitioners, empowerment agencies, mosques officials and mushalla officials, religious institutions and other social institutions to maximize orphans maximally and sustainably.

Background: Although orphans are at increased risk of undernutrition, studies assessing prevalence of undernutrition are limited to orphans residing with their relatives or on street. This study was conducted to assess magnitude of undernutrition and its associated factors among institutionalized school-age orphans in Harari Regional State, eastern Ethiopia. Methods: An institution based cross-sectional study was conducted among all school-age (6-12 years) orphans living in all orphan centers in Harari Regional State, eastern Ethiopia. Data were collected by using a structured pretested questionnaire supplemented with anthropometric measurements. Data were entered using EpiData 3.1 and analyzed using SPSS 22. Logistic regression models were fitted to identify factors associated with undernutrition. Statistical significance was declared at P-value <.05. Results: A total of 265 orphans residing in all orphan centers in the region were included. The prevalence of stunting, wasting, and underweight were 15.8% (95% CI: 11.9, 20.7), 10.9% (95% CI: 7.7, 15.3), and 8.7% (95% CI: 4.3, 10.5), respectively. Staying in orphan center for 6 to 10 years (AOR = 6.2; 95% CI: 2.6, 15.10), having recent illness (AOR = 3.9; 95% CI: 1.4, 10.4), and being aged 10 to 12 years (AOR = 11.2; 95% CI: 3.5, 35.4) were significantly associated with stunting whereas having recent illness (AOR = 4.3; 95% CI: 1.4, 7.3) and being aged 6 to 7 years (AOR: 10.4; 95% CI: 3.2, 33.6) were significantly associated with wasting. Underweight was more likely (AOR: 8.9; 95% CI: 2.7, 29.5) among children with recent illness. Conclusions: Almost 1 in 6, 1 in 9, and 1 in 11 institutionalized school-age orphans in Harari Regional State were stunted, wasted, and underweight respectively. Younger children and those with recent illness were more likely to be undernourished. Underlying reasons for undernutrition among orphans being cared in orphan centers should be further explored.

Developing and modifying the policies of orphanages requires the availability of accurate information. This study aimed to compare caries and oral hygiene status among orphan and non-orphan children. This descriptive cross-sectional study took place in governmental orphanages and schools of both genders in Mashhad, Iran. The prevalence of caries was assessed using the Decayed, Missing and Filled Tooth (DMFT) index, and oral health status was assessed using the Oral Hygiene Index – Simplified (OHI-S). The results were statistically analyzed using a t-test and Chi-Square test. The mean DMFT was 3.36 in orphans and 2.10 in non-orphan children, which was not statistically significant (p=0.6). The mean dmft was 9.01 in the orphan group and 5.26 in the non-orphan group, which was statistically significant (p=0.003). The average OHI-S index was 2.30 in the group of orphan children and 1.05 in the non-orphan children, presenting a statistically significant difference (p=0.00). The prevalence of caries, especially in deciduous teeth, was high among orphan children. The oral health status of these children was worse than that of children living at home. Consequently, there is a need for proper planning to promote the oral health of children living in orphanages.

The institution soon became a centre for the Pietists in Denmark. Blaagaard Institute was initiated by The Great School Commission and became the first government-financed teacher education in Denmark. It was established 1791 inspired by Enlightenment ideas. When The Orphan House was totally destroyed during a fire 1795, the initiative was taken to amalgamate with Blaagaard. This article answers the following questions: What kind of institution was The Orphan House in 1795? What kind of institution was Blaagaard? How was care and education for poor and orphan girls and boys planned to be realised in a new institution? Which future role was intended for The Orphan House in relation to Blaagaard?

Full textAbstract:
The term "elder orphan" is an emerging description of an individual older than 65 years of age who lacks dependents or close family members on whom to rely for assistance, particularly in dealing with health problems. As the number of elder orphans continues to grow, this population is increasingly at risk. Some social determinants of health affect the elder-orphan population disproportionately, including financial security, housing, and transportation. Medication nonadherence may be a sign of increasing isolation and unaddressed problems. Elder orphans may have difficulty managing their health care, and pharmacists can help by identifying patients without support systems may be able to act as valuable assets to these patients. Brown-bag medication reviews, medication therapy management, and thorough medication reconciliation are excellent interventions to prevent medication misadventure. Identifying other medical professionals and services that can support the elder orphan is also prudent.

IntroductionPatient-reported outcomes are an integral part of modern healthcare. We report a comparison of symptom item content from several validated cancer instruments to that of a published checklist, and identify the important differences this revealed.MethodsWe defined orphans as any symptom not assessed in any of the six selected instruments; champions, in contrast, were present in all six. An empirically derived cancer multisymptom checklist was used.Three symptom categories were identified Orphan—absent from all 6,Champion—present in all 6,Intermediate—underreported.The contents of each validated instrument were cross-referenced against the checklist.ResultsEighteen (39%) checklist symptoms were orphans. Five (11%) were champions: fatigue, pain, anorexia, dyspnoea and nausea. Of the 46 checklist symptoms, 23 (50%) were inconsistently recorded. All 18 orphan symptoms were clinically important checklist symptoms. Common gastrointestinal and neuropsychological symptoms that pose great clinical management challenges were among the orphan symptoms.ConclusionsOf 46 checklist cancer symptoms, over a third were orphans. All orphan symptoms were rated as clinically important and distressing by checklist. Only 5 checklist symptoms were champions: fatigue, pain, anorexia, dyspnoea and nausea. Important—but usually omitted—symptoms included early satiety (6 of 6) and weight loss (5 of 6). The bias appears to disproportionately affect gastrointestinal and neuropsychiatric symptoms. Symptom studies should specifically report the limitations and account for the inherent item bias of any instrument used.

The theoretical basis of the study was the provisions of the "social situation of development" L.S. Vygotsky, theories of attachment by J. Bowlby, the multifactor model of social cognition A.B. Kholmogorova, O.V. Rychkova. 68 orphans aged from 10 to 17 years old living in the orphanage examined. It shown that orphaned teenagers with an insecure type of attachment have more difficulty in understanding their own feelings, regardless of the length of their stay in the institution. Orphans living in institutions for more than 5 years have a higher level of social anxiety and distress during social interaction.

The future of child wholly and solely depends upon parents their mentality, their behavior, their assets etc. A family with sound economy can make their children sound in all walks of life. But unfortunate thing for an orphan is that he/she lacks this valuable guardian i.e, parents. The children lost the parental support while as thousands of families lost their bread earners. How an orphan can survive smoothly in this expensive and cunning world. So far as orphan of Jammu and Kashmir are concerned, they are in constant strain, anxiety, stress due to the situation of armed conflict from last two decades and Kashmir region in particular has been the most affected. The conflict has led to the loss of human resource and caused infrastructural damage to some of the important institutions. Here the orphan number is far beyond than normal as compared to other states of India. In this paper it is an attempt to showcase the condition, challenges and the position of orphans in Kashmir region. It also mentions the role of government in attempting to reduce the number of orphans and in the rehabilitation of conflict affected victims. Int. J. Soc. Sci. Manage. Vol-2, issue-4: 327-332

Full textAbstract:
Nuclear hormone receptors (NRs) are a superfamily of eukaryotic ligand-dependent transcription factors that translate endocrine, metabolic, nutritional, developmental, and pathophysiological signals into gene regulation. Members of the NR superfamily (on the basis of sequence homology) that lack identified natural and/or synthetic ligands are/were classified as “orphan” NRs. These members of the NR superfamily are abundantly expressed in tissues associated with major metabolic activity, such as skeletal muscle, adipose, and liver. Subsequently, in vivo genetic studies on these orphan NRs and exploitation of novel natural and synthetic agonists has revealed that orphan NRs regulate 1) carbohydrate, lipid, and energy homeostasis in a tissue-specific manner, and 2) the pathophysiology of dyslipidemia, obesity, Type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. This review discusses key studies that have implicated the orphan NRs as organ-specific regulators of metabolism and mediators of adverse pathophysiological effects. The emerging discovery of novel endogenous orphan NR ligands and synthetic agonists has provided the foundation for therapeutic exploitation of the orphans in the treatment of metabolic disease.

In 1847 Atwill of New York published “The Lament of the Blind Orphan Girl.” Composed by William Bradbury, the song is written for voice and piano in a lilting 3/8 meter. Mary, the song’s protagonist, sings of “the silvery moon” and “bright chain of stars” over diatonic harmonies. A dramatic shift to the minor mode supports the climax: “Oh, when shall I see them? I’m blind, oh, I’m blind.” Mary explains that she and her brother have also lost their parents. On the sheet music cover a wreath of flowers encircles an image of a young white woman kneeling beneath a tree, alone at a grave. The title page notes: “As sung with distinguished applause by Abby Hutchinson.” Orphan songs pervade nineteenth-century pop repertory. Scholars have analyzed Latvian, Hmong, Danish, and German orphan songs, but US orphan songs have generated little more than passing references. Other examples include: “The Orphan Nosegay Girl” with words by Mrs. Susanna Rowson from 1805; “The Colored Orphan Boy,” composed by C. D. Abbott and sung by S. C. Campbell of the Campbell Minstrels from 1852; and “The Orphan Ballad Singers Ballad” by Henry Russell from 1866. Orphans were not just a topic; in the latter half of the nineteenth century, actual parentless youth featured in bands such as the Hebrew Orphan Asylum Band of New York City. This paper connects the stolen childhoods in orphan songs to those of enslaved youth. If free children were aware of slavery and the movement to abolish it as historian Wilma King has shown, what did it mean for Abby Hutchinson, who started performing abolitionist songs with her brothers at age twelve, to sing as the sentimental stock character of the orphan? Songs like the one above may have been a way that young abolitionists empathized with enslaved youths robbed of their youths.

SAGE Open Medicine 9 (January 2021): 205031212110596. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/20503121211059694.
Full textAbstract:
Background: Childhood underweight is one of the major public health problems in Ethiopia. In Ethiopia, most of the available evidence is related to the general community children, which had different risk and severity levels than orphan children. Even though under-five orphan children have a higher risk of being underweight, they are the most neglected population. Objective: The study aims to determine the prevalence and factors associated with childhood underweight among orphaned preschool children in Southern Ethiopia. Methods: A community-based analytical cross-sectional study was conducted among 367 orphans. The burden of childhood underweight was assessed using World Health Organization standard cutoff points below −2 SD using z-scores. All variables with a p-value of < 0.25 during binary logistic regression analysis were entered into a multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify predictor variables independently associated with underweight at a p-value of 0.05 with 95% CI. Results: In this study, the prevalence of underweight among orphan children was 27.4%. The main factors associated with underweight were female child (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 5.29, 95% confidence interval (CI) (2.83–9.92)), adult food as type of first complementary food (aOR = 2.47; 95% CI (1.24–4.94)), food insecurity (aOR = 1.98; 95% CI (1.23–3.21)), and child age from 24–59 months (aOR = 7.19; 95% CI (3.81–13.60)). Conclusion: Childhood underweight is a public health problem in the study area. The sex of a child, type of first complementary food, household food security status, and child age were the major predictors of underweight. Therefore, appropriate dietary interventions, nutrition education, and increased food security status of orphan children are highly recommended.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The sung verse of Kmhmu highlanders involves a complex and unique system of pervasive canonical parallelism. “Reverse words” in the first member of a parallel set rhyme in a crosswise relation with their meaningful counterparts in the second member of the set. Within this system, some singers employ “orphan lines,” where only the first member is sung, and listeners must guess what the meaningful line would be. Roman Jakobson's encouragement to examine such orphan lines in terms of their “near and distant” environment is taken as inspiration to explore the image of parentless children in Kmhmu songs about orphans and to suggest lessons for our own ethnographic practice.

This research is a field research that uses a descriptive qualitative approach, which in this study describes the effectiveness of the distribution of zakat infaq and alms funds to increase the level of mustahik educators through the achievement orphan scholarship program at the Mandiri Jombang orphanage. Data obtained by researchers through direct interview observations from informants and documentation. for the data that has been collected then analyzed through 3 stages, namely data redaction, data exposure and drawing conclusions.
The distribution of alms infaq funds at the Mandiri orphanage in Jombang Regency in the achievement orphan scholarship program is fairly good because this institution has used the zakat infaq alms funds properly. Namely, by distributing zakat infaq alms funds on the basis of the educational welfare of poor orphans and their distribution has been achieved on the target of distributing zakat infaq and alms funds, it is quite effective in improving the welfare of mustahik through the orphan scholarship program, the achievements of the Independent Orphan Institute, Jombang Regency, which can be seen from the satisfaction parents who feel that their economy has been helped by the help of this program. the second is the number of orphans who have completed their education. The third is that many of them are helped by the additional learning system that is carried out in each of the closest studios, so that orphans and needy people feel helped if there are difficulties regarding learning at school. Lessons in the studio are held four times a week.

This article presents a typological overview of specialpurpose buildings for orphan children in Russia and abroad, since the beginning of their existence until our days. Foreign experience is characterized by a great diversity in the typological structure of institutions for orphans, in their approach to raising children, functional richness, individual architectural and planning solutions, observance of strict economic requirements. In contrast, Russian experience has a limited typology of buildings for orphans, each with similar planning structure and a narrow set of service functions. The development of family type childrens homes is one of the promising directions of studies all over the world. Unfortunately, there arent very few good examples of specialpurpose buildings for orphan children in our country.

AbstractThe 1983 Orphan Drug Act was designed in response to market and regulatory disincentives that limited industrial interest in developing drugs needed by people in the United States with rare diseases and conditions. These disincentives evolved from changes in the pharmaceutical industry and in regulatory testing requirements. In the eight years since the Act and subsequent amendments have been in effect, the law has been associated with the new development and approval of 40 marketed drugs and 12 biologicals to treat rare (orphan) diseases. An additional 281 drugs and 141 biologicals have been entered into development and designated as orphans. Finally, the law has mandated exploration of whether the incentives of the Act are necessary and appropriate for stimulating industrial development of orphan medical drugs and devices. Despite this progress, controversies have arisen over three profitable orphan products that have benefited from the law's provisions. This has created the need for continued assessment of the Act's benefits and costs.

Full textAbstract:
The process of social adaptation in graduates of orphan organizations occurs simultaneously with their socialization: as adolescents become involved in various life situations, they acquire new repertoires of social behavior or employ the ones they already have. Special attention should be paid to the specifics of development in adolescents brought up in socially deprived conditions since they tend to demonstrate asocial motivation, communicative deficits and try to avoid performing social roles. The article focuses on the problematic issues of socialization of orphans and children without parental care. To explore life situations typical for the period of independent living of graduates of orphan organizations, we used a special methodological tool: cases of life scenarios. We carried out the analysis of 452 cases of life scenarios in graduates aged 18—23 years, 262 male and 190 female. The analysis revealed the following problems of socialization and social adaptation of orphans and graduates of organizations for orphans and foster families: insufficient level of knowledge in matters of education, vocational education and employment, low goal-setting skills. We highlight the facts that are prototypical in the description of a life scenario, and these events are at the same time typical for graduates of various forms of foster care and orphan organizations.

Full textAbstract:
The iconography of the African AIDS orphan, captured in National Geographic–style images of half-starved toddlers with distended bellies, inspires humanitarian aid for the continent. In Botswana, stereotypes underlying both foreign-funded and governmental programs for orphaned children—which imply that orphans are underfed and underloved—initially resonated with Tswana people’s anxieties that neglect by overburdened kin results in parentless children going hungry. However, during the past decade international feeding projects began to evolve into elaborate day-care complexes in which village orphans gained exclusive access to swimming pools, DVDs, trendy clothing, and daily meat rations. This article traces the shifting moral semiotics of orphans’ fat and skinny bodies, explaining why new discourses protesting the overfattening of orphans arose in a southeastern village. Metaphors of fat and feeding have become a scale on which the excesses of humanitarian aid and the perceived shortcomings of local kinship practices are weighed. A new kind of “politics of the belly” calls into question relations of patronage around metaphors of fleshiness and dependence on foreign support. In the process, contestations over children’s skinny and fat bodies lead to reconfigurations of the idea of orphanhood.

Full textAbstract:
The article presents the research on the characteristics of older preschool-age orphans’ interpersonal relationships. It reveals differences between the functioning of the sphere of orphans’ interpersonal relations and that of children brought up in families. Orphans show higher interest in adults, indicating that orphans’ need in adults’ attention is not satisfied. The main motives for communication with adults in families are mutual interactions and cognitive needs, while the dominant motive of orphan children is searching for attention and kindness. Orphans show increased inclination to conflicts, cause for which are every-day issues and the struggle for adults’ attention and friendliness. The main cause of conflicts characteristic for family-raised children is their selfaffirmation in games. Orphans are less and less likely to express their own emotions when communicating. They rarely turn to their partners for some advice, support, and sharing of experiences, unlike children in families. Orphaned children feel indifference in relationships with peers. Differences were found between orphaned children and family-raised children as for well-being of relationships: orphans’ well-being is quite low, while family-raised children’s well-being is high. Orphaned children, due to problems in interpersonal relationships with adults and peers, have some deviations in the most important psychological formations: distortion of self image, delayed formation of subjective attitude to oneself, as well as slow and abnormal development of activity, which may further negative affect their psychological well-being.
