Changes During Adolescent Period

Cicy Joseph* M.G.M.M.M.C College of Nursing, Pathanamthitta, Kerala, India

Abstract

Adolescence is the period of developmental transition between childhood and adulthood,

involving multiple physical, intellectual, personality, and social developmental changes. Due

to rapid changes adolescents face lot of challenges. They are unintentional injury suicide,

homicide, unplanned pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), substance abuse, etc.

Adolescence is a developmental period characterized by multiple changes in virtually every

aspect of an individual’s life, calling for new psychological adjustments.

Keywords: adolescent changes, challenges, emotional changes, physical changes, social

changes

INTRODUCTION

Geldard and Geldard (2006) explained that

adolescence is a time in a young person’s

life where they move from dependence on

their parents to independence, autonomy

and maturity. The young person initiates to

move from the family group being their

major social system, to the family

enchanting a lesser role and being part of a

peer group becomes a greater fascination

that will finally lead to the young person to

standing alone as an adult.[1]

Adolescents make up 18% of the world’s

population, and more than half live in

Asia. India is home to the maximum

number of adolescents, at 243 million,

followed by China, by around 200 million

adolescents. In sub-Saharan Africa,

adolescents make up the biggest slice of

the population, with 23% of those aged 10

and 19. The same is true of many of the

least-developed countries, where

adolescents make up 23% of the

population, associated with 19% in

developing countries and 12 in

industrialized countries, conferring to the

report.[2]

CONCEPT OF ADOLESCENCE

Teenage years refer to the age of transition

when the individual changes- physically

and psychologically-from a child to an

adult. It is an era when rapid physiological

and psychological changes demand for

new social roles to take place. The

adolescents, due to these variations often

face a number of emergencies and

dilemmas. It is the period when the child

moves from dependency to autonomy. It

loads significant adjustment to the physical

and social changes. Adolescence is one of

the most speedy phases of human

development. Although the order of many

of the changes seems to be universal, their

timing and the speed of alteration vary

among and even within individuals. Both

the characteristics of an individual (e.g.

sex) and external factors (e.g. inadequate

nutrition, an abusive environment) impact

these changes. During adolescence,

children progress the ability to:[3–8]

Counselling During Adolescent Stage

Cicy Joseph* M.G.M.M.M.C College of Nursing, Pathanamthitta, Kerala, India

Abstract

Frightening complexity of current culture postures a change of difficult problems primary to

conflicts, frustration, unnatural competition, etc. that result in worth crisis and severe

instability between children. Now such a complex society, the individual has to face many

difficulties in lifespan for an improved alteration in a social structure. Globalization

procedures and evidence technology have knowingly transformed the way people work. Thus

the students respond problems and circumstances in all walks and segments of life. The

students are not developed enough to unfavourably value baffling situations are

uninterruptedly faced with. They need somebody to support in the solution of problems and

thus avoid strains and conflicts. The necessity for counselling in recent times has increased

because of the range of problems that the individuals have to face in the several areas of life.

In the context of the fluctuating socio-cultural setting the repertoire of counselling has been

increasing at an astonishing speed. In these circumstances, it is vital to help and guide the

youth to useful channels through the introduction of counselling services.

Keywords: adolescent, challenges, emotional, social changes

INTRODUCTION

In the current globalized development the

adolescents face massive problems.

Atwater (1988)[1]

has claimed that the

adolescent period of life is noticeable by

emotional development that comprises

mood swings, enthusiasm, tenderness,

cruelty, curiosity and apathy.

In a scenario where experiencing,

exploring and experimenting in several

areas is an active process for the youth, the

relationship between learning and

happiness assumes all the more

importance. Youngsters are confused with

the new structures of modern reality, drug

abuse, AIDS, risk behaviours, gender

conflict, aggression, etc.

Students are not advanced enough to

critically evaluate baffling situations are

continuously challenged with. They need

somebody to help in the resolution of

problems and thus avoid pressures and

conflicts.

The students must recognize their abilities

and potentialities, specifically in regions

that are critical for the awareness of

objectives in life. Their objectives and

aspirations and expectations are to be

shaped accordingly.

Adolescents often find themselves in

various emotional difficulties, such as:

Lacking self-confidence, result

themselves at odds with their parents,

teachers and peers.

Not being agreed by their parents,

teachers.

Effect of Intervention Package on Self-Esteem of Senior Citizens

Jiji Joseph, Sibin Joy Vayalil* Lourdes College of nursing, Kerala University of Health Science, Cochin, Kerala, India

Abstract

A pre-experimental one group pretest posttest study was conducted to assess the effect of

intervention package on self-esteem of senior citizens in a selected community, Kerala. A

total of 40 senior citizens were selected by convenience sampling technique. The tools used

for the study were background information of senior citizens and modified self-esteem scale.

The study result shows that there is significant association between self-esteem and education

( =5.45, p = 0.05*), self-esteem and mode of living [ =5.71, p=0.01], happy about

children [ =4.91, p=0.02], and support from children [ =8.75, p=0.01]. The mean

pretest score of self-esteem among senior citizens is 44.7 SD 8.89. One week after the

intervention the posttest score of self-esteem becomes 48.7 SD 7.34. To determine the effect

of intervention package ‘t’ test is computed. The result shows t = 4.9, p = 0.001. There is also

significant association between pretest level of self-esteem and physical parameters of senior

citizens [ = 7.05, p= 0.008**

) at 0.01 level.

Keywords: intervention package, self-esteem, senior citizen

INTRODUCTION

Aging is in mind. Some individuals’ age

rapidly as compared to other individuals

belonging to the same age group, as they

think and believe that they are old. A

common saying in America and Europe is

that, life starts at 60. Aging is a natural

process which shall continue and cannot

be prevented, but it can be delayed by

introducing certain lifestyle changes, such

as keeping physically fit, which requires

regular physical exercise, regular

activities, controlled diet, and most

essentially, keeping a positive thinking and

attitude in life.[1]

Cooper in one of his articles (1967)

suggested that self-esteem is a positive or

negative value assigned by a person, and

what she is and what she does.[2]

According to Hunter (1982), there was no

difference with respect to age, education,

income or living arrangement, amongst the

elderly with either low or high self-esteem.

However, elders with low self-esteem,

suffered from poor health, more pain and

higher disability. The low self-esteem

elders had significantly higher scores on

depression, anxiety, somatization and

more external locus of control orientation

both with and without health variables

controlled. Aging of a person causes

several difficulties to the individual along

with the other people associated with

them. Mental ability of a person becomes

weak and ailing, which makes it difficult

for them to stay in a happy state of mind.

Along with this, they also have to endure

economic difficulties, family troubles,

regional and housing hardships that can

lead to mental adjustments.[3]

A total of

213 elderly patients (60 years and above),

attending the outreach clinics, were

interviewed using a pretested schedule,

Integrating Nursing Theory into Practice: Orem Self-Care Deficit

Theory

Sibin Joy Vayalil* Lourdes College of Nursing, Kerala University of Health Science, Cochin, Kerala, India

Abstract

Nurses base their practice on their experience, intuition or the way they have been taught. Such

approaches lead to role and stereotypical practice. The knowledge for the science of nursing can

be provided through testable theories. Theory provides professional autonomy by guiding the

practice, education and research functions of the profession. Orem’s general theory is composed

of three interrelated theories which include: (1) the theory of self-care (describes and explains

self-care), (2) the theory of self-care deficit (describes and explains why people can be helped

through nursing and (3) the theory of nursing systems (describes and explains relationships that

must be brought about and maintained for nursing to be produced). This paper elaborates the

utilization of Orem’s self-care deficit theory into clinical practice.

Keywords: nursing systems, Orem’s general theory, self-care, self-care deficit

INTRODUCTION

One of the most controversial and

enduring problems in nursing is the poor

clinical observation and least integration of

theoretical concepts into clinical practice.

When nurses use theory and theory-based

evidence to structure their practice, it

improves the quality of practice.[1]

The application of nursing theories into

clinical practice varies from context to

context.

Orem’s model focuses on each

individual’s ability to perform self-care. In

Orem’s model, the goal of nursing is to

help people meet their own therapeutic

self-care demands.[2]

LITERATURE REVIEW

Credentials of the Theorist

Dorethea E. Orem was born in 1914 at

Baltimore, Maryland. She earned her

diploma in nursing from providence

Hospital School of Nursing (1930),

BBNEd. (1939) and MSN Ed. (1945) from

Catholic University of America. She was

awarded with Doctor of science (1976)

from George Town University. Sad demise

was in June 2007.

Major Concepts of the Theory

Three theories (1980)

(I) The theory of self-care

(II) The theory of self-care deficit

(III) The theory of nursing systems

(I) The theory of self-care

The theory of self-care has four

components; self-care, self-care requisite,

self-care agency and self-care demand.

Self-care is learned, goal oriented

activities that individuals initiate and

perform on their own behalf in

maintaining life, health and well-being.[2,3]

Self-care requisites are expressions of

purposes to be attained, result desired from

Article Writing and Plagiarism in Nursing Field - An Idea of

Someone Else!

Abstract Nursing expert publishes various research or review articles in different journals so as to let

other nurses get a view of what all is happening in different nursing fields. Many people

would like to learn good things from others. However, sometimes, other’s knowledge, ideas,

thoughts, images, etc. are taken without their acknowledgement, which is known as

plagiarism. Plagiarism is otherwise also called as theft or steal. The important purpose of

checking plagiarism is to value others’ knowledge, standardize the writing skill and increase

critical thinking in writing.

The types of plagiarism are sources not cited and sources cited. The main classifications are

intentional and unintentional. Although the guidelines of the plagiarism to be followed where

the researchers are writing any articles or referring any sources, the citation,

acknowledgement and references are important points to be practiced when writing any

research content or article. Copyright law must be always remembered to avoid illegal

writing of articles and research. “PQRS’’ strategies are also very helpful in writing an

article and referring any resources. Since nursing researchers are viewing other’s resources

to write a paper, they should keep these guidelines in mind before presenting or submitting

any paper. Remember, whether it is intentional or not, plagiarism is wrong and should be

avoided.

INTRODUCTION If you steal from one author it is

plagiarism; if you steal from many it is

research – Wilson Mizner.

Many people would like to learn good

things from others. The knowledge and

practice must be go halves into others but

person’s permission to be required because

experienced persons are becoming experts

in their fields by performing hard work,

effort, interest and practice. It might be lay

hold of, year to year on their competent

level, but sometimes an interested learner

will copy other’s resource without the

consent of the author by seeing, listening,

watching and reading and using the

resource as their own by liking themselves

without acknowledging the person.[1–3]

An expert’s knowledge, skill and practice

could be found in different field and

department of nursing, etc.

The knowledge and information can be

taken and benefited by anyone but the

person must get consent from the ideal

person by citing. However, sometimes
