Tommy Y. S. Suyasa, Tarumanagara University, Indonesia

with the child’s mental health. The parent’s potential problem areas are feeling of depression, role
restriction, feeling of incompetence, feeling of isolation, conflict with spouse & perception of
self-health condition. Those parent’s potential problem areas will be tested with child’s mental
health aspect that include aspect of adaptability, acceptability, stability of mood, independence,
and child’s self controlling. The subjects of this study are 100 young mothers who have children
(< 12 years old).
5138.38 Maternal sensitivity to infant signals: A signal detection analysis, Wilberta Donovan,
Nicole Taylor, Lewis Leavitt, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA
Our laboratory employs simulations of child-care tasks to study the effects of maternal
self-efficacy on sensitivity to infant signals. Self-efficacy is measured by mothers’ perception of
control over the termination of infant cries. Signal Detection analysis is used to measure sensory
sensitivity (i.e., the ability to differentiate small differences in fundamental frequencies)
independent of response bias. We experimentally manipulate aspects of infant crying thought to be
particularly problematic for parenting. The data suggest that greatly overestimating control in
these simulated child-care tasks is a maladaptive coping strategy and is associated with negative
developmental outcome for the infant.
5138.39 Personal immaturity and suicidal intentions of teenagers from full families and
teenagers-orphans, Valentina N Shashok Belarus, Belarusian State Pedagogical University M.
Tank, BY
In our research took part 40 teenagers-orphans and 40 teenagers from full families (14-16 years
old). The method of research: The Inquirer Of Suicidal Risk (based on MMPI). Teenagers from
full families show low level of self-control, domination of emotional component in critical
situation (80%). Children are inclined to resort to the help of other people (70%), have negative
personal conception, infantile maximalism of intentions and affective fixation on failures (80%),
can not plan their future constructively (95%). Teenagers-orphans overemphasize hardship (60%),
feel themselves unique and, at the same time, useless. They are absorbed in present situation that
promotes anxiety.
5138.40 Comparisons of the parenting patterns structures of healthy children with that of
unhealthy children, Juzhe Xi, Zhihong Zuo, East China Normal University, Shanghai, China
Employing perspectives of ecosystems theories, using methods of means comparison, explorative
factor analysis (EFA) and confirmative factor analysis (CFA), the authors made comparisons of
the parenting patterns structures of healthy children with that of unhealthy children, finding that
there are significant differences in many factors between the two groups with different structural
models.
