Revisiting the cross‐sectional and prospective association of physical activity with body composition and physical fitness in preschoolers: A composi…

2022

Background Information is limited for the benefits of physical activity (PA) in preschoolers. Previous research using accelerometer-assessed PA may be affected for multicollinearity issues. Objectives This study investigated the cross-sectional and prospective associations of sedentary behaviour (SB) and PA with body composition and physical fitness using compositional data analysis. Methods Baseline PA and SB were collected in 4-year-old (n = 315) using wrist-worn GT3X+ during seven 24 h-periods. Body composition (air-displacement plethysmography) and physical fitness (PREFIT test battery) were assessed at baseline and at the 12-month follow-up. Results Increasing vigorous PA at expenses o…

Tyttöjen ja poikien väliset erot seksuaalisesta hyväksikäytöstä kertomisessa

2020

Tytöt ja pojat eroavat toisistaan siinä, kuinka he kertovat kokemastaan seksuaalisesta hyväksikäytöstä. Kokemukset jäävät usein myös kokonaan aikuisille kertomatta. Hyväksikäytön kokemusten tunnistaminen, asian puheeksi ottaminen ja siihen puuttuminen on edellytys myös laajemmalle toimintakulttuurin kehittämiselle sekä asenteellisille ja rakenteellisille muutoksille. This article addresses the frequency of child sexual abuse and its disclosure from the perspective of girls and boys between ages 11 and 17 years. It is based on data from two population-based studies in the Child Victim Surveys 2008 (N = 13,459) and 2013 (N = 11,364), with sexual abuse examined from the perspectives of disclos…

The role of self-esteem on fear of childbirth and birth experience

2022

Objective: Fear of childbirth (FOC), also referred to as tokophobia, can have detrimental consequences for a woman’s well-being during pregnancy and for their subjective birth experience. However, it is unknown what role self-esteem plays in the relationship between FOC and the experience of childbirth. This study investigates the relation between FOC and the birth experience, and the role of selfesteem in that relation. Methods: We studied 125 nulliparous and parous Finnish women from their third trimester of pregnancy to 4–8 weeks postpartum. Path analysis with MLR estimation was conducted using MPlus to predict the childbirth experience according to prior self-esteem and fear of childbir…

Children's help seeking: the role of parenting

2008

Abstract Ninety-nine families with a school-age child participated in this study, aimed at analysing the relationship between parenting and children's help seeking. The parenting data included self-reports on parents' child-rearing principles and behavioural observations during parent–child interactions. To test help seeking, the children were placed in a problem-solving situation and had the opportunity to seek help from the experimenter. For girls, higher levels of parental nurturance were linked to longer thinking times preceding help seeking and to lessened capacity to reuse previously received help. For boys, higher levels of fathers' emotional warmth were related to higher rates of ir…

Emotional self-regulation through music in 3-8-year-old children

2009

The current study explored the role of music in children’s emotional self-regulation. Music is shown to be a common and effective way of self-regulating emotions in adolescence and adulthood. It is also widely known that parents use music to regulate the emotions of their babies, for instance in calming them down by lullabies. However, very little is known about how children themselves use music for emotional needs, and how the self-regulatory emotional engagement develops. A survey study was conducted with parents of 63 children including 37 boys and 26 girls, aged between 2.9 to 8.1 years. The parents answered questions about their child’s musical activities, preferences, and emotion-regu…
