FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda SATURDAY, Feb. 11 (HealthDay News) — Children who are attentive
in kindergarten are likely to have “work-oriented” skills in higher
grades, which provides lifelong benefits, according to a new study.
It included more than 1,000 children whose attention skills were
assessed in kindergarten. As they moved from first to sixth grade, the
children were rated on how well they worked alone and with others, their
levels of self-control and self-confidence, and their ability to follow
directions and rules.
Over time, the children were categorized into three groups: high,
medium or low classroom engagement. Boys, aggressive children and children
with lower cognitive skills in kindergarten were much more likely to be in
the low group, according to the University of Montreal researchers.
“There are important life risks associated with attention deficits in
childhood, which include high-school dropout, unemployment and problematic
substance abuse,” study author Linda Pagani said in a university news
release. “Our findings make a compelling case for early identification and
treatment of attention problems, as early remediation represents the least
costly form of intervention.”
The study was published online recently in the Journal of Abnormal
Child Psychology.
“For children, the classroom is the workplace, and this is why
productive, task-oriented behavior in that context later translates to the
labor market,” Pagani said. “Children who are more likely to work
autonomously and harmoniously with fellow classmates, with good
self-control and confidence, and who follow directions and rules are more
likely to continue such productive behaviors into the adult workplace. In
child psychology, we call this the developmental evolution of
work-oriented skills, from childhood to adulthood.”
