Reported are "An Investigation of the Factors Related to Anxiety in Children" in Bangladesh, by Dilruba Afrose, and briefly, a study of "Intergenerational Conflicts Regarding Child-Rearing Practices and Their Effects on Certain Behaviours of Children," by Chucha Suvanathat. The former investigation attempted to determine whether maternal attitudes toward child-rearing are related to anxiety reactions in children and to compare anxiety responses of 250 male and 250 female subjects, who were randomly selected from 12 schools in Dhaka. Mothers of high, moderate, and low anxiety children differed significantly on marital conflict, overprotection, and strictness at the .001 level and on punishment at the .05 level. In all cases, except strictness, the mean scores of mothers of high anxiety children were higher than the mean scores of the other mothers. Mothers of low anxiety children scored highest on the strictness scale. Girls were found to be more anxious than boys. Results further indicated that girls' low anxiety scores were associated with mothers' high scores on fostering dependency and positive attitudes toward early training. Opposite trends were found in the case of boys. Among other findings, the latter study indicated that, in contrast to children from families with greater intergenerational conflict, children in families with less conflict express more social ability in playground activities and have greater learning readiness.

This paper emphasized management techniques for attention deficit disorders.) (RH)
