ABSTRACT INSIGHTS into children’s temperaments is an intervention that provides parents and teachers with child behaviour management strategies tailored to fit children’s personality styles. A mixed-methods intervention design was utilized. All 5-year-old students in three schools received the programme. Five-year-old students from another three schools were control groups. Thirty-five children were randomly selected for the administration of the scales. At the end of 10-weeks, 30 parents and 4 teachers whose schools received the treatment took part in a focus group discussion. Due to the small sample sizes, the changes in children’s behaviours and academic performance were not statistically significant. The qualitative findings suggested that the adults had an increased understanding of children’s temperaments.

在牙买加某些幼儿机构中进行基于气质干预的检查

对儿童气质的抽象见解是一项干预措施，旨在为父母和教师提供量身定制的，适合儿童个性风格的儿童行为管理策略。使用了一种混合方法干预设计。三所学校的所有5岁学生都接受了该计划。来自另外三所学校的五岁学生是对照组。随机选择35名儿童进行体重计的管理。在10周结束时，接受学校治疗的30名家长和4名老师参加了焦点小组讨论。由于样本量较小，儿童行为和学习成绩的变化在统计学上不显着。定性的发现表明，成年人对孩子的气质有了更多的了解。
