So far, a primary research concern has been how children experience their participation in court proceedings. However, little is known about the child's voice itself: Are children able to clearly express their wishes, and if so, what do they say in child protection cases? In this study, we extracted information about children's statements from court file data of 220 child protection cases in Germany. We found 182 children were asked about their wishes. The majority of the statements found came either from reports of the guardians ad litem or from judicial records of the child hearings. Using content analysis, three main aspects of the statements were extracted: wishes concerning main place of residence, wishes about whom to have or not contact with, and children granting decision-making authority to someone else. Children's main focus was on their parents, but others (e.g., relatives and foster care providers) were also mentioned. Intercoder agreement was substantial. Making sure that child hearings are as informative as possible is in the child's best interest. Therefore, the categories developed herein might help professionals to ask questions more precisely relevant to the child.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Schrenk2005, author = {Schrenk, Judith Katharina}, title = {Aushandlungen unter Kindern : Einsatz verschiedener Taktiken im Verlauf einer Aushandlung und Stellung in der Peergruppe}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-12580}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, year = {2005}, abstract = {Die folgenden Fragen standen im Mittelpunkt der Dissertation: Wie handeln Grundschulkinder aus, wenn sie von ihren Peers ungerecht behandelt werden?

Eine Kombination qualitativer und quantitativer Methoden wurde verwendet. In einem individuellen Interview wurde erhoben, welche Taktiken (eine Handlungseinheit) sowie welche Strategien (Abfolge von Taktiken) die Kinder in einer hypothetischen Normbruchsituation einsetzen w{\"u}rden.

Die Stellung der Kinder wurde sowohl bez{\"u}glich ihres Einflusses (Peerrating) als auch bez{\"u}glich ihrer Akzeptanz (Soziometrie) unter den Klassenkameraden erhoben. Die von den Kindern genannten Taktiken wurden vier {\"u}bergeordneten Kategorien zugeordnet: Verhandeln, Erzwingen, Ausweichen und Aufgeben. Nach den Erwartungen der Kinder f{\"u}hren sowohl Verhandlungstaktiken als auch erzwingende Taktiken in um die H{\"a}lfte der F{\"a}lle zur Durchsetzung.

As outcomes, cognitive biases post intervention, body mass index, eating behaviour, food intake, self-regulation, and weight-related quality of life were assessed, also at 6- and 12-month follow-up. Modification of approach-avoidance bias was observed, but lacked in transfer over sessions and in generalization to attention and association bias. After 6months, the IG reported less problematic food consumption, higher self-regulation, and higher quality of life; effects did not persist until the 12-month follow-up; no significant interaction effects were observed regarding weight course. Despite there was no direct effect on weight course, approach-avoidance training seems to be associated with promising effects on important pillars for weight loss.

The project investigates the language abilities of multilingual children and adolescents, in particular, those who have Turkish and/or Kurdish as a mother tongue. A further aim of the project is to examine from a psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic perspective the extent to which competence in academic registers is achieved on the basis of the languages spoken by the children, including the language(s) spoken at the home, the language of the country of residence and the first foreign language. To be able to examine these questions using corpus linguistic parameters, we created categories of analysis in MULTILIT. The data collection comprises texts from bilingual and monolingual children and adolescents in Germany in their first language Turkish, their second language German und their foreign language English. Pupils aged between nine and twenty years of age produced monologue oral and written texts in the two genres of narrative and discursive. On the basis of these samples, we examine linguistic features such as lexical expression (lexical density, lexical diversity), syntactic complexity (syntactic and discursive packaging) as well as phonology in the oral texts and orthography in the written texts, with the aim of investigating the pupils' growing mastery of these features in academic and informal registers. To this end the raw data have been transcribed by the use of transcription conventions developed especially for the needs of the MULTILIT data. They are based on the commonly used HIAT and GAT transcription conventions and supplemented with conventions that provide additional information such as features at the graphic level. The categories of analysis comprise a large number of linguistic categories such as word classes, syntax, noun phrase complexity, complex verbal morphology, direct speech and text structures. We also annotate errors and norm deviations at a wide range of levels (orthographic, morphological, lexical, syntactic and textual). In view of the different language systems, these criteria are considered separately for all languages investigated in the project.}, language = {en} } @article{GmeinerWarschburger2020, author = {Gmeiner, Michaela Silvia and Warschburger, Petra}, title = {Psychotherapie bei juveniler Adipositas}, series = {Psychotherapeut}, volume = {66}, journal = {Psychotherapeut}, number = {1}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {New York}, issn = {0935-6185}, doi = {10.1007/s00278-020-00474-2}, pages = {16 -- 22}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Background Obesity is widespread in childhood and adolescence. Medical rehabilitation measures with a comprehensive range of treatment options represent an essential pillar of care. As obesity is associated with a wide range of psychosocial burdens, the question arises as to whether psychotherapeutic services should be given even greater consideration. Objective The main goal was to examine the rate of psychological problems among children and adolescents with obesity and their association with the weight loss course. Material and methods The sample consisted of 220 children and adolescents with obesity (8-16 years, M = 13.11 years, SD +/- 1.88 years; 54.5\% female) who participated in an inpatient rehabilitation. Emotional and behavioral problems were assessed (strengths and difficulties questionnaire, SDQ via parental report) at the beginning of rehabilitation as well as 6 and 12 months after completion. Anthropometric data for determination of the weight status were collected by medical personnel of the clinics or in the follow-up by family doctors. Results Almost half of the children and adolescents (48.6\%) showed abnormal values and girls in particular were affected significantly more often. The descriptive inspection after rehabilitation revealed a similarly high proportion. The presence of psychological problems had a significant negative effect on the weight course. Conclusion Psychological problems should be given greater consideration in the context of obesity therapy. On the one hand potentially burdened children should be identified by screening, on the other hand psychotherapy to reduce psychosocial strain should be an integral part of the treatment concept.}, language = {de} } @misc{GaeblerPrieskeHortobagyietal.2018, author = {Gaebler, Martijn and Prieske, Olaf and Hortobagyi, Tibor and Granacher, Urs}, title = {The effects of concurrent strength and endurance training on physical fitness and athletic performance in Youth}, series = {Frontiers in physiology}, volume = {9}, journal = {Frontiers in physiology}, publisher = {Frontiers Research Foundation}, address = {Lausanne}, issn = {1664-042X}, doi = {10.3389/fphys.2018.01057}, pages = {13}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Combining training of muscle strength and cardiorespiratory fitness within a training cycle could increase athletic performance more than single-mode training.

Schools are a key setting for mental health promotion and illness prevention. One in five children and adolescents have a mental disorder, about half of mental disorders beginning before the age of 14. Beneficial and explainable artificial intelligence can replace current paper- based and online approaches to school mental health surveys. This can enhance data acquisition, interoperability, data driven analysis, trust and compliance. This paper presents a model for using chatbots for non-obtrusive data collection and supervised machine learning models for data analysis; and discusses ethical considerations pertaining to the use of these models. Methods: For data acquisition, the proposed model uses chatbots which interact with students. The conversation log acts as the source of raw data for the machine learning. Pre-processing of the data is automated by filtering for keywords and phrases. Existing survey results, obtained through current paper-based data collection methods, are evaluated by domain experts (health professionals). These can be used to create a test dataset to validate the machine learning models. Supervised learning can then be deployed to classify specific behaviour and mental health patterns. Results: We present a model that can be used to improve upon current paper-based data collection and manual data analysis methods. An open-source GitHub repository contains necessary tools and components of this model. Privacy is respected through rigorous observance of confidentiality and data protection requirements. Critical reflection on these ethics and law aspects is included in the project. Conclusions: This model strengthens mental health surveillance in schools. The same tools and components could be applied to other public health data. Future extensions of this model could also incorporate unsupervised learning to find clusters and patterns of unknown effects.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Chan2006, author = {Chan, Yuan-Shuo}, title = {Zum Zusammenhang zwischen posturaler Balance und kognitiven bzw. somatischen Faktoren}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-10237}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, year = {2006}, abstract = {Balance ist als die koordinative F{\"a}higkeit anzusehen, die am meisten durch das Sinnes- und Nervensystem determiniert ist.

Betrachtet werden daher bei Vorschulkindern m{\"o}gliche Zusammenh{\"a}nge mit dem Geschlecht, mit den anthropometrischen Parametern K{\"o}rperh{\"o}he und Fußgr{\"o}ße, mit Statikst{\"o}rungen des Beckens und der Intelligenzleistung. An der Studie nahmen insgesamt 201 drei- bzw. vierj{\"a}hrige Kinder sowie 148 f{\"u}nf- bzw. sechsj{\"a}hrige Kinder teil. Die Balancef{\"a}higkeit wurde mit Hilfe einer Kraftmomentenplattform sowie eines klinischen Tests erfasst und mit anthropometrischen Parametern, qualitativen statischen Befunden bzw. den Ergebnissen des BIVA-Intelligenztests nach SCHAARSCHMIDT verglichen. F{\"u}r die Auswertung der Balanceparameter wurden sowohl lineare als auch nichtlineare Verfahren eingesetzt, die zum Teil gegenl{\"a}ufige Trends in Bezug auf Zusammenh{\"a}nge lieferten. Im Ergebnis konnte ein starker Einfluss des Geschlechts nachgewiesen werden. M{\"a}dchen zeigten eine bessere Balanceleistung als Jungen sowohl bei 3-J{\"a}hrigen als auch bei 6-J{\"a}hrigen. Dies wird als Beleg f{\"u}r den geschlechtsspezifischen Vorsprung der sensomotorischen Entwicklung bei den M{\"a}dchen im Alter von 3 bis 6 Jahren angesehen. Außerdem gab es einige Hinweise auf einen Zusammenhang mit der K{\"o}rperh{\"o}he bzw. Fußl{\"a}nge. Ein Zusammenhang mit den Umstellungen des ersten Gestaltwandels wird vermutet. Die Daten sprechen f{\"u}r einen statistisch schwachen Einfluss von St{\"o}rungen der Beckenstatik (Beckenverwringung) auf die Balance bei den Kindern. Es wird vermutet, dass die Verrechnung Balance relevanter Inputs durch nozizeptive Impulse beeintr{\"a}chtig werden kann. Dies k{\"o}nnte Anlass sein, diesen Aspekt bei Funktionsst{\"o}rungen mit zu ber{\"u}cksichtigen. Signifikante Zusammenh{\"a}nge mit Ergebnissen des BIVA-Intelligenztests konnten kaum gefunden werden. Allerdings fallen {\"u}berzuf{\"a}llig viele Mittelwertvergleiche in Richtung der Hypothese aus, erreichen jedoch nicht Signifikanzniveau. Dies k{\"o}nnte ein Hinweis auf einen schwachen Zusammenhang darstellen, der jedoch mit einer gr{\"o}ßeren Gruppe noch best{\"a}tigt werden m{\"u}sste. Weitere Forschung auf diesem Gebiet ist erforderlich.
