Association of Harsh physical disciplining and the mental and behavioral health problems among pre-school children in Ethiopia

Background: Harsh physical discipline may have an impact on the emotional and behavioral health and cognitive abilities of children and adolescents. There is little understanding of the association between harsh physical discipline and mental health issues in populations where harsh disciplinary measures are culturally normal. Objective: The primary objective of this research was to investigate the potential correlation between the use of harsh physical discipline methods and the development of mental and behavioral health issues in children. By ex-amining the impact of these disciplinary practices on the psychological well-being of children, this study sought to shed light on the potential long-term consequences of such parenting strategies. Through a thorough analysis of data collected from a diverse sample of families, the researchers aimed to provide valuable insights into the effects of harsh physical disciplining on child mental health outcomes. Methods: A cross-section survey was conducted on 358 pre-school children preschool children and their primary caregivers in ten randomly selected elementary schools in Addis Ababa. The Strengths and Difficulties (SDQ) questionnaire was used to measure the mental and behavioral health of the children. The Parent-Child Conflict Tactics Scale measured the primary caregivers' experience of harsh physical discipline. Result: The study found that more than two of the three primary caregivers witnessed the harsh physical discipline of pre-school children in their lifetime. The study also showed that the likelihood of having any of the mental or behavioral problems was higher among children who experienced harsh physical discipline. AOR = 5.8; 95% CI, 1.7, 17.4). It was also higher among preschool children in the second (AOR = 2.9; 95% CI, (1.2, 7.0)) order of birth and children perceived to have a moderate AOR = 5.0; 95% CI, (1.1, 23.4) and a lower AOR = 17.0; 95% CI, 17.0 (1.3, 218) school performance. Conclusion This study has revealed a concerning connection between the physical discipline of preschool-aged children and the development of mental and behavioral health issues. The findings underscore the importance of policymakers and stakeholders in implementing interventions to prevent harsh verbal and physical discipline of young children. Society as a whole must prioritize the well-being and emotional health of our youngest members, and taking steps to promote positive and nurturing forms of discipline is essential in safeguarding their overall development and future success.

Psicanálise e educação: o que pode o analista na escola em tempos de desempenho? / Psychoanalysis and Education: what can a psychoanalyst do in a school nowadays? / Psicoanálisis y Educación: ¿cómo actúa el psicoanalista en la escuela delante de la exigencia de desempeño?

Este artigo investiga o que pode o analista na instituição escolar frente ao discurso exigente de disciplina e desempenho dos alunos. Utilizamos como métodos a pesquisa bibliográfica, as pesquisas em três sites de sistemas de ensino e a recordação dos fragmentos da escuta pontual no cotidiano escolar. Fizemos um breve histórico da inserção da escola no Brasil e entendemos que os significantes disciplina e desempenho, apesar da marcante inserção do método construtivista nas escolas, possuem raízes fortificadas pelo ensino tradicional. Ao percorrer os sites, foi possível identificar o maciço investimento de recursos no material didático como promotor do sucesso do aluno. Desse modo, as apostilas são apresentadas aos alunos como o recurso primordial para o sucesso, e o professor, como ferramenta de mediação, necessário para o ingresso do aluno na universidade. Fundamentados na Psicanálise, compreendemos que a eficácia do método de ensino não depende exclusivamente do uso correto das apostilas, mas sim da subjetividade do aluno. Na tentativa de responder às demandas escolares pautadas pela ideologia social atual, que destaca o desempenho como um novo mandato do sucesso profissional, o aluno entra em conflito com a sua construção subjetiva. Sendo assim, o psicanalista irá lidar com as marcas advindas desse imperativo ideológico escolar e social de desempenho para o sujeito. Concluiu-se que, além dos alunos, o professor, também, é disciplinado pelo método de ensino e, dessa forma, reduzido à condição de reprodutor dos conteúdos presentes nas apostilas. O psicanalista tem uma função importante na desalienação das relações que permeiam o dia a dia escolar e que interferem tanto no funcionamento institucional quanto no mau desempenho do aluno e, também, no sofrimento psíquico de alunos e educadores.

This scientific article investigates what the psychoanalyst can do in a school in order to help with the big demand of discipline and performance from the students. As a research method we used the bibliographical survey, research in three education system websites and the memory from listening the students in the everyday school environment. We made a brief history of the school's insertion in Brazil, and we understood that the discipline and performance, although there is a constructivist method inserted at the schools, has deep roots in the traditional way of teaching. Looking through websites, it was possible to identify a massive resource investment in the educational material as a developer of the student's success. This way, the student's book is presented as a primary source for the success and the teacher is a mediation tool, necessary for the entrance of the student in the university. Based on the Psychoanalysis, we comprehend that the efficiency of the teaching method does not depend only on the correct use of the books, but in the student's subjectivity. In the attempt of answering the school's demands based on the current social ideology, which highlights the performance as a new professional success' mandate, the student gets in a conflict with their subjective construction. Therefore, the psychoanalyst will deal with the consequences of this imperative ideological academic and social from the performance of the subject. In conclusion, besides the students, the teacher is also disciplined by the education method and, this way, is reduced to the condition of reproducer of contents that are on the books. The psychoanalyst has an important function in the desalination of the relations in the school's daily routine that interferes so much in the school functioning and also in the student's performance in addition to the psychological distress of the students and of the educators.

Este artículo investiga lo que el psicoanalista puede hacer en la institución escolar frente a un discurso que exige disciplina y desempeño estudiantil. Utilizamos la investigación bibliográfica, la investigación en tres sitios de sistemas de enseñanza y recuerdos de los fragmentos de la escucha puntual en la rutina escolar, como métodos. Hicimos una breve historia de la inserción de la escuela en Brasil y entendemos que los significantes disciplina y desempeño, a pesar de la marcada inserción del método constructivista en las escuelas, tienen raíces fortalecidas por la enseñanza tradicional. Al navegar por los sitios, fue posible identificar la inversión masiva de recursos en material didáctico como promotor del éxito estudiantil. De esta manera, los materiales se presentan a los estudiantes como el principal recurso para el éxito académico y el profesor, como una necesaria herramienta de mediación para que el estudiante ingrese a la universidad. Basado en la psicoanálisis, entendemos que la efectividad del método de enseñanza no depende exclusivamente del uso correcto de los materiales, sino de la subjetividad del estudiante. Al intentar responder a las demandas escolares guiadas por la ideología social actual, que destaca el desempeño como un nuevo mandato para el éxito profesional, el estudiante entra en conflicto con su construcción subjetiva. Así que, el psicoanalista se ocupará de las marcas derivadas del imperativo ideológico escolar y social de desempeño para el sujeto. Se concluye que, además de los estudiantes, el profesor también es disciplinado por el método de enseñanza y, por lo tanto, reducido a la condición de reproductor de los contenidos presentes en los materiales. El psicoanalista tiene un papel importante en la desalienación de las relaciones que impregnan el día a día escolar y que interfieren tanto en el funcionamiento institucional, como en el bajo rendimiento del estudiante y, también, en el sufrimiento psicológico de los estudiantes y educadores.

Percepções e Vivências de Psicólogos/as sobre a Punição Física em Crianças / Perceptions and Experiences of Psychologists about Physical Punishment in Children / Percepciones y Experiencias de los Psicólogos/as sobre el Castigo Físico en Niños/as

Este estudo qualitativo e transversal investigou as percepções e vivências dos/as psicólogos/as sobre o uso da punição física em crianças. Participaram do estudo 13 psicólogos/as brasileiros/as, que responderam a um questionário sociodemográfico on-line, um roteiro de entrevista e vinhetas de situação-problema. A análise de conteúdo revelou duas categorias: Ambivalência nas percepções sobre o uso da punição física: A palmada não é uma forma de agressão?; e Reprodução da punição física geração após geração: a forma de educar mudou?. Constataram-se percepções endossando o uso da punição física e experiências pessoais de punição física na infância, mas vários participantes buscam não repetir com os filhos e são desfavoráveis a todos os níveis dessa prática. Participantes favoráveis ao uso, principalmente da palmada, demonstraram desconhecimento da sua ineficácia enquanto método educativo e de seus efeitos prejudiciais. A transgeracionalidade e a naturalização da palmada foram motivos salientados para a persistência do uso da punição física. São necessárias capacitações a psicólogos/as e estudantes sobre os prejuízos e alternativas à punição física em crianças.

This qualitative and transversal work aimed to investigate the perceptions and experiences of psychologists about the use of physical punishment in children. Thirteen Brazilian psychologists participated in the study, who answered a socio-demographic questionnaire, an interview script and problem-situation vignettes online. Content analysis revealed two categories: Ambivalence in perceptions about the use of physical punishment: Isn't spanking a form of aggression? and Reproduction of physical punishment generation after generation: has the way of educating changed? Perceptions endorsing the use of physical punishment and personal experiences of physical punishment in childhood were found, but several participants try not to repeat it with their children and are unfavorable to all levels of this practice. Participants favorable to the use, mainly of spanking, demonstrated ignorance of its ineffectiveness as an educational method and its harmful effects. The transgenerationality and the naturalization of spanking were highlighted reasons for the persistence of the use of physical punishment. Training is needed for psychologists and students on the harm and alternatives to physical punishment in children.

Este estudio cualitativo y transversal tuvo como objetivo investigar las percepciones y experiencias de psicólogos sobre el uso del castigo físico en niños. Participaron del estudio trece psicólogos brasileños, que respondieron un cuestionario sociodemográfico, un guión de entrevista y viñetas de situaciones-problema en línea. El análisis de contenido reveló dos categorías: Ambivalencia en las percepciones sobre el uso del castigo físico: ¿Las nalgadas no son una forma de agresión? y Reproducción del castigo físico generación tras generación: ¿ha cambiado la forma de educar? Se encontraron percepciones que avalan el uso del castigo físico y experiencias personales del castigo físico en la infancia, pero varios participantes intentan no repetirlo con sus hijos y son desfavorables a todos los niveles de esta práctica. Los participantes favorables al uso, principalmente de las nalgadas, demostraron desconocer su ineficacia como método educativo y sus efectos nocivos. La transgeneracionalidad y la naturalización de las nalgadas fueron razones destacadas para la persistencia del uso del castigo físico. Se necesita capacitación para psicólogos y estudiantes sobre el daño y las alternativas al castigo físico en los niños.

Leva militar y violencia en contra de la juventud en el Perú

(analítico) El servicio militar obligatorio en el Perú ha generado debates y controversias por la violencia con el que opera, tanto al obligar como al maltratar e incluso torturar a los jóvenes secuestrados. Recién a fines de los años 90 se demostraría la crueldad con la que se operaba, desmantelándose en el 2000. El artículo busca identificar dicha violencia mediante el encauzamiento que operaría en durante la década de 1960. Se aplicaron un total de 28 entrevistas a hombres y mujeres entre los 60 y 83 años. Como hipótesis se propone el uso de la discriminación y del autoritarismo para degradar a los sectores más populares del país. Así, las estrategias biopolíticas denigrantes instaladas persuadirían a la población de la necesidad de tales levas militares incurriendo en un juvenicidio legalizado.

(analytical) Compulsory military service in Peru has generated debates and controversies due to the violence with which it operates, both by forcing and mistreating and even torturing kidnapped youths. Only at the end of the 1990s would the cruelty with which it was operated be demonstrated, dismantling it in the year 2000. The article seeks to identify said violence through the channeling that would operate during the 1960s. Methodologically, a total of 28 interviews with men and women are applied between 60 and 83 years old. As a hypothesis, the use of discrimination and authoritarianism to degrade the most popular sectors of the country is proposed. Thus, the installed demeaning biopolitical strategies would persuade the population of the need for such levies, incurring in a legalized juvenile murder.

(analítico) O serviço militar obrigatório no Peru gerou debates e controvérsias devido à violência com que opera, tanto forçando e maltratando e até torturando jovens sequestrados. Somente no final da década de 1990 seria demonstrada a crueldade com que foi operada, desmantelando-a no ano de 2000. O artigo busca identificar essa violência por meio da canalização que operaria durante a década de 1960. Metodologicamente, um total de 28 entrevistas aplicam-se com homens e mulheres entre 60 e 83 anos. Como hipótese, propõe-se o uso da discriminação e do autoritarismo para degradar os setores mais populares do país. Assim, as estratégias biopolíticas aviltantes instaladas persuadiriam a população da necessidade de tais cobranças militares, incorrendo em um homicídio juvenil legalizado.

Objective@#Evaluate the effect of an integrated teaching model of oral preclinical practice based on endodontic-restorative sequential treatment to provide a reference for the exploration of the teaching mode of the stomatology specialty. @* Methods @#This retrospective study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee. The study was divided into 2 groups. There were 450 2018-grade and 2019-grade students in the discipline integration teaching method (DIT) group, and a preclinical practice course (root canal therapy and fixed prosthetic treatments were integrated into an endodontic-restorative sequential treatment) using the DIT method was applied. There were 443 2016-grade and 2017-grade students in the traditional teaching method (TT) group, and a TT preclinical practice course (root canal therapy and fixed prosthetic treatments training courses were taught separately) was applied. Both groups were taught by the same two teachers. The scores of clinical skills examination and treatment planning were compared between the two groups. In addition, students in the two groups were asked to complete the questionnaires about the teaching methods, and students in Group DIT and their teachers were asked to complete the questionnaires on their degree of satisfaction with the DIT method in the preclinical course. @*Results @# Students in the DIT group had an average score of 90.2 ± 4.16 in the practical skill evaluation, which was higher than that of the TT group (86.3±3.57) (P = 0.001). In the case analysis, 91.8% (413/450) of the students in the DIT group successfully planned the treatment, compared to a significantly lower rate in the TT group of 74.7% (331/443) (P = 0.001). The questionnaire results showed that recognition degrees of cultivated clinical thinking, improved indication analysis ability, improved operational skills, stimulated enthusiasm for learning, and improved autonomous learning were higher in the DIT group than in the TT group, and both teachers (2/2) and 98.4% (443/450) of students recognized the DIT method. @*Conclusions@#The DIT method significantly improved students’ learning quality and ability, proved effective in the endodontic-restorative sequential treatment practice course and was more acceptable to teachers and students. The DIT method is more effective than the TT method in improving students’ clinical thinking and operation ability.

Research progress and discipline development of mental disorders in children and adolescents / 四川精神卫生

A demand-capacity mismatch exists between the services for child and adolescent mental health and the needs of society， and the contradiction is becoming increasingly prominent. This study aims to present a thorough analysis of the current status of research in child and adolescent mental disorders and the direction of discipline development， which consists of the epidemiology， etiology and pathogenesis， diagnostic progress， treatment progress and disciplinary development in child and adolescent mental disorders. Mental disorders in children and adolescents are known to have a high prevalence rate， and the disease is most likely to continue into adulthood if it is not identified and treated in a timely manner， posing a serious burden on patients， families and society. Currently， the etiology and pathogenesis of mental disorders in children and adolescents still remain unclear due to its complexity and the numerous interrelated contributing factors such as genetics， environment， stress events and so on. And the diagnosis is limited to symptomatology and lacks objective indicators. Therapeutically， the various treatment options available have shown certain clinical effectiveness， while suboptimal treatment outcomes have been reported among some children， which require multidisciplinary comprehensive intervention. Furthermore， the research on imaging genetics， new drug-target search， wise information technology of med and brain sciences needs to be strengthened， thus providing a broader approach to better address the needs of mental health services for children and adolescents.

Guidelines for the Multidisciplinary Diagnosis and Treatment of Neurofibromatosis Type 1(2023 Version) / 罕见病研究

@#Neurofibromatosis type 1(NF1) is an autosomal dominant hereditary neoplastic disease caused by mutations in the <i>NF1</i> gene. Features of disorder typically appear in early childhood. The clinical phenotypes of the patients are diverse but neurofibromas is the main feature. Patients with NF1 also suffer from multi-system involvement and have high risk of malignant tumor. NF1 poses significant challenges for diagnosis, treatment, follow-up and patients management. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a multidisciplinary collaborative diagnosis and treatment protocol. Under the leadership of China Alliance for Rare Diseases, a multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment collaborative team for NF1 has been formed and worked out the guideline. This guideline intends to lift the diagnosis and treatment level for NF1 and to provide the guideline for standardized treatment for NF1 patients in China.

Reflection on the construction of pharmacy and traditional Chinese pharmacy disciplines based on patent information analysis: taking “double first-class” universities as an example / 中国药科大学学报

@#Among the second round of “double first-class” construction universities, 12 universities are in the process of building first-class pharmaceutical and traditional Chinese medicine disciplines.The aim is to explore the innovative development trend of these 12 universities, based on their information related to pharmacy and traditional Chinese medicine in the past five years.The study used the PatSnap global patent database to search for pharmaceutical related patents applied by 12 universities from 2018 to 2022, and analyzed the information from perspectives such as application and authorization volume, technical themes, transfer and licensing status, and international patent situation.The results reveal that comprehensive universities and China Pharmaceutical University are superior to other pharmaceutical universities in terms of patent application volume and licensing rate.From the perspective of patent classification, most of the relevant patents involve the effective ingredients of drugs.Comprehensive universities and China Pharmaceutical University pay more attention to the research of anti-tumor drugs.Among all authorized patents, the quantity is insufficient, and most of them are exclusive licenses.The transfer of relevant rights mostly occurs between universities and enterprises.In terms of international patent applications, comprehensive universities dominate in terms of quantity, but the total amount is still insufficient.In the future innovation and development process of “double first-class” universities, it is necessary to improve the awareness of patent protection and layout, attract relevant talents, give full play to the advantages of university intellectual property information service centers, and promote the transformation of university achievements.

Current research status and prospect of organ donation discipline construction in China: a bibliometric analysis / 器官移植

Objective To refine and summarize the research status and development trend of organ donation discipline in China. Methods Relevant Chinese and English literatures related to organ donation were searched from China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Web of Science core collection database from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2022. Visual analysis was performed by the CiteSpace software from the number of published articles, keywords, journal source distribution, cooperation network of core authors, main research institutions, and citation of key literatures, etc. Results A total of 792 articles were published from 2018 to 2022, with an average annual number of 158 articles, which showed a rapidly upward trend. Among them, 182 articles were published in the form of postgraduate dissertation, accounting for 23%. Common keywords included organ transplantation, brain death, cardiac death, willingness/cognition/attitude, legal system, influencing factor/risk factor, infection/complication, Organ Procurement Organization, prognosis/quality, education for college students/medical students, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, children, ischemia-reperfusion injury, donor-derived infection, ethics, expended criteria donor, nursing and coordinator, etc. Keyword clustering hotspots focused on the theme of “organ donation” and branched into multiple disciplines. The publications of research results were characterized with pluralism and diversity, and the research contents were centered on medicine and spanned a wide range of disciplines. A large proportion of researches were published by the teams from large-scale organ transplantation institutions, and relatively close cooperative relationship was formed within the institutions. However, the intensity of cooperation among different institutions was relatively low, and the cooperative relationship among authors was insufficient, which failed to form an intimate academic network. The top five countries worldwide regarding the number of published articles were the U.S. (n=940), U.K. (n=377), Spain (n=263), Canada (n=241) and China (n=181), indicating that the achievements of Chinese researchers have been gradually recognized in the international academic community. Conclusions From the quantity and content of published articles in recent years, “organ donation” has laid certain research foundation in China. It is one of the topics concerned and widely studied by multiple academic communities in China. Relevant research issues have multidisciplinary, plural and diverse characteristics.

Discussion on the establishment of the discipline of "organ donation" / 器官移植

Vivid and abundant social practice constantly creates new understanding, which will inevitably lead to the emergence of new disciplines. Organ donation discipline is involved with multiple disciplines, such as ethics, law, medicine, sociology and psychology, etc. After entering a new stage of high-quality development, whether it is necessary to establish the discipline of "organ donation" is worthy of discussion. According to the basic standards for establishing a new discipline, groundbreaking achievements in organ donation could lay a solid foundation for the establishment of "organ donation" discipline. However, current conditions for the establishment of "organ donation" are not fully mature, and the process of discipline establishment will absolutely encounter resistance. In the future, the scope and orientation of organ donation should be further elucidated, and a series of measures should be taken, such as establishing independent academic organizations, offering organ donation courses, carrying out special research and innovation, and strengthening international cooperation and exchanges, aiming to promote the establishment of organ donation discipline. The cooperation between academic community and governments is the key to promote the establishment of the discipline of organ donation. Governments will make final decisions by comprehensively considering the investment of resources, development needs of the discipline and the relationship among existing disciplines.

Overall planning and optimization: characteristics analysis of the medical doctoral supervisor and consideration of the current situation of enrollment / 中华医学教育探索杂志

This study has combed and analyzed the characteristics of medical doctoral supervisors and the enrollment status from 2015 to 2018 in Tongji University School of Medicine. The results show that the distribution of doctoral supervisors' age, gender and professional title is relatively balanced. The enrollment situation shows the clustering trend. There are obvious differences in enrollment among clinical medical disciplines, and the scales of doctoral supervisors and doctoral students are not matched and unevenly distributed. It is essential to give an overall consideration in discipline resources and optimize enrollment allocation, for improving the construction of doctoral supervisors and the quality of doctoral training.
