both require event of stress to occur in the prior of testing. The questionnaire of ASC-Kids has 29 questions on it that needs to be fully filled in by a scale of 3-point likert scale. In items 24 and 25, there are three alternatives for finishing a sentence. (Criterion 1) Items 1-4 are about the traumatic event; the first item asks about the event that happened. (criterion 2) Items 2-4 ask about the subjective experience of the event of fear, helplessness and horror. (criterion 3) Items number 5,6,7, and 8 are about feelings and thoughts when the event happened, and the other items diagnostic criteria for the ASC-Kids. (Criterion 4) All three instruments in the non-clinical group were significant correlation between them with a medium
The first determinant is a critical state. It is based on the child’s exposure towards this traumatic
Reviewing the 12 Core Concepts of the National Child Trauma Stress Network, James is suffering from three of the 12 concepts. Number 1 core concept, Traumatic experience are inherently complex. Traumatic experiences are inherently complex no experience are the same varying degrees of objective life threat, physical violation, witnessing of an injury or death. The victim perceives their surroundings and decides what is best for them now safety and self-protection. Number 4 core concept, A child or adolescent can exhibit an extensive range of reactions to suffering and loss. Number 9 core concept, the developmental neurobiology triggers a youth’s reactions to traumatic experience. In this paper, we will be covering another trauma that affects the social worker or case worker who works on these cases of

When comparing quantitative measures such as gravimeter with visual analog scales, the quantitative measures, subjective ratings have a relatively high level of diagnosis sensitivity and specificity (48,49B). This method, however, is preferably used in research field, and is rarely used in clinical practice.
Have you ever heard of the term ASD? What are your thoughts when you see a child in public who is misbehaving? Well the two of these questions might be linked together. ASD is better known as autism spectrum disorder which is a disorder of the development in the brain according to Autism Speaks Inc. (2015). Due to this developmental issue children can be thought of as being bad or unruly, but in reality they cannot help it. The reason it may seem that way is because the brain isn’t processing like it should be. The brain may be sending multiple messages to the body at one time or to the wrong places in the body which can cause children to seem bad. According to Autism Speaks Inc. (2015) there are multiple variances of autism. Although we know
The BASC-2 is multidimensional because it measures numerous aspects of behavior and personality. It is designed to ease the process of diagnosing and educational classification of a variety of emotional and behavioral disorders in children. It can also be used to aid in the design of a treatment plan. The BASC-2 gives one a triangulated view of a child’s behavior. First, by examining the child’s behavior in multiple settings like home and school. Second, examining the child’s view of one’s self. Third, by providing useful information when making educational classifications or clinical diagnosis.

Living in a healthy, happy environment is crucial for preschoolers as this could influence them later in life, causing them to miss certain milestones in their development. Theorist Erikson believes that there is a task that must be reached before they move on to the next stage of development, Erickson, E (1950) 1963. Development is important in preschoolers as this is when they learn their social skills, language skills and both their fine and gross motor abilities. Many hurdles can be put in place when it comes to determining a preschooler’s health such as; low economic status, lack of childhood education and not having the health model Te Whare Tapa Whā in place as these can all have a detrimental impact on a preschooler’s development in
According to the American Psychological Association, trauma is an emotional response to a terrible event. Some terrible events that happen all too often are rape, natural disasters or an accident. Immediately following the event shock and denial are likely to occur, but in the long-term flashbacks, unpredictable emotions and troubled relationships can arise. Defining emotional trauma on a child. Emotional trauma in a child can be created by bullying, emotional abuse, death of loved ones, separation from parent, or chaos and dysfunction in the household. Child symptoms of trauma can be very similar to depression symptoms. They can over sleep or sleep to little, unexplained anger, trouble focusing, obsessive worrying and some anxiety. How a child experiences an event and how it’s handled by those around him have an effect on how traumatizing it can be, notes Dr. Jerry Bubrick (Child Mind Institute , 2017). People grieve at different speeds and the way the child grieves is not the correct indicator on how the child will cope later. Defining physical trauma on a child. Physical trauma on a child is considered non-accidental or the cause of physical injury. Some households that suffer from alcoholism/substance abuse and anger issues have higher occurrences of child abuse as compared to households without according to psychology today. Sometimes kids that are abused are unaware that they are being abused and are victims of child
For this task, I observed a teacher in a moderate/severe Autism classroom. I chose to conduct my observation during the class’ calendar time, this is one of the few opportunities during the day when the teacher conducts whole group instruction. During the 30 minutes in which I observed, the teacher interacted with the students for 34 opportunities total. She gave nine opportunities to respond; 16 reprimands/corrective commands; 9 general praise statements, and zero behavior specific praise statements.

Receiving a phone call from the Children’s Aid Society (hereafter referred to as CAS) can be a daunting and intimating experience. CAS has a level of authority and power and can leave an inexperienced worker feeling unnerved and unsure what to do. There are a few things that I would do in the case of receiving a phone call from someone who is claiming they are from CAS. While it may be easy to think this person is from CAS, it is important to find out whom this person is and if they are from CAS. First, I would put the put the caller on hold and call CAS directly on another line, once I have found out who this person is, I can proceed.
The child that I did my child case study report on is named Malachi. Malachi is two and half years old. His height is 29 inches, and his weight 26 pounds. This is around the average weight for a child his age. He has curly and short black hair that he gets from his mother. He has round brown eyes and a short nose that he gets his from his dad. He is a very physically active child. He is physically developing well for his age. He can be social at times, but most of the time he shake or nods his head. I believe he does this because he does not have the time to interact with other people at home besides his mother and occasionally his father. He tends to be on the social side, despite his activeness. He does not have many hobbies, but he does enjoy riding his plastic toy truck. He also has this plastic ring of keys that he carries around with him constantly. When he by himself, he will just count his keys. From my observation. He does this to keep himself occupied because no one is physically watching him. His family has a dog named Lines that he likes to play with all the time. I think the reason he attaches himself to the dog is because the dog is on his level. The dog will let him climb on him, pull his ears and tail, and pounce on him. The dog is so carefree around Malachi that I believe Lines makes Malachi want to interact with him because he can do whatever he desires and there is no consequence. His family composition consist of his mother who works during the day so he is in daycare majority of the week. This affects Malachi tremendously. With him being in daycare majority of the week, he is not getting the proper amount of attention from his mother. When she does come home after picking him up from daycare, she feeds him, ...
