Introduction

Many research focus on the study of language in

ADHD children. However, the discourse is beyond the language

and provides access to child representations of the world, to its

own history. The aim of our study was to compare and analyze the

self-narratives during a family meal.

Method

Speeches of 5 children (6–10 years) were recorded, ana-

lyzed and then compared to a strictly matched control group.

Once transcribed, the data were morphosyntactically annotated

and processed using multivariate exploratory techniques. A the-

matic analysis was also realized to understand how ADHD children

moved from one conversation topic to another.

Results

Our first results showed that ADHD children have more

difficulty in producing self-narratives while they are doing some-

thing else (eat). Moments of sharing common stories are less

frequent compared to the control group. The transition from one

topic to another is made by direct associations (e.g. the child talks

about what he is eating, and this leads him to think about the

next day’s dinner). The construction of the self-narratives is poorer

compared to the control group, both in content and in length of

utterances.

Conclusion

Interestingly, concerning ADHD children, it appears:

– That these self-narratives exist;

– but also that they are poorer;

– that they allow, less frequently than in the control group, projec-

tions into the future or recollection of past events.

If ADHD children cannot access to thesemoments, special attention

should be paid to this sharing of family history outside of daily

activities.

Introduction

Aerobic exercise seems to decrease anxiety in

children. However, those studies are subject to methodological

deficiencies (e.g. no control group, cross-sectional study). There-

fore, we conducted a longitudinal studywherewe investigated how

10-week of aerobic or coordination training affects the anxiety of

primary school children.

Method

Sixty-four children aged 9–10 years were randomly

divided into an aerobic (AE;

n

= 25), a coordinative (CE,

n

= 23) and a

control group (CON,

n

= 20). The intervention groups received three

times a week for 10 weeks for 45minutes additional physical edu-

cation. TheAE completed an aerobic exercise training at an intensity

of 60–70% of maximum heart rate (HR

max

). The CE completed a

coordinative training, with an intensity of 55–65% of HR

max

. Anxi-

ety was measured by the external version of the State-Trait Anxiety

Inventory for Children (STAIC PTD).

Results and discussion

A repeated-measures ANOVA of group (AE,

CE, CON)

×

test time (pre, post) showed a significant reduction in

anxiety over time,

F

(1, 64) = 7.337,

P

= .009,

2

. = .103. The interac-

tion effect of group x test time was also significant,

F

(2, 64) = 3.445,

P

= .037,

2

= .097. Only participants in the AE showed decreased

anxiety (

P

= .009). In the post-measurement, AE significantly dif-

fered from CE (

P

= .023); the difference to CON was marginally

significant (

P

= .081). The results are discussed in terms of exer-

cise type and the slightly different intensities of the experimental

groups.

Introduction

The creation of a theoretical model and institutions

for “abnormal childhood” was a relevant issue in various areas

(medical and educational) in the first decades of the XXth century.

In 1910, the first “official” attempt was carried out with the creation

of the Patronato Nacional de Sordomudos, Ciegos y Anormales, and

in 1925 with la Escuela Central de Anormales, devoted to these

patients. Internment of infants in Spanish asylums was carried out

amongst polemic and structural deficiencies. The Internal Regula-

tion of the National Asylumof Leganés (1873 and 1885) established

different departments for childhood; however, in reality, there is

no evidence of an actual separation being carried out. In the Inter-

nal Regulation of 1941, the department disappeared, despite that

from the Dirección General de Sanidad, all psychiatric institutions

were obliged to have separate pavilions for children.

Objetives/aims

Analyze the hospital admissions of children in the

national asylum of Leganés.

Study the regulation regarding admission of children.

Methods

Children internment in the Asylum of Leganés is

analyzed (1852–1952), and compared with other Spanish asy-

lums (SPSSv21). State documents regarding institutionalization of

minors are reviewed.

Results

During 1852–1952, this Asylum admitted 96 children

under 18 (mainly epilepsy and oligofrenia), without any specific

pavilion for them. Other institutions, such as Valladolid did have

separate pavilions.

Conclusions

Children were admitted in Spanish asylums

although the Jefe de la Sección de Psiquiatría de la Dirección

General de Sanidad in 1943 denounced that few institutions

followed the regulation of having separate pavilions.
