“…However, validation of the Mongolian version of the SDQ has not been conducted yet, and the international cut-off scores, which were originally the cut-off scores derived from the UK children, have been used. A previous study in Mongolia demonstrated that 43% of adolescents were classified as abnormal by the international cut-off score [26]. There is a strong need for validating the SDQ and its cut-off score in Mongolia.…”

Background Child and adolescent mental health problems are urgent health issues in low- and middle-income countries. To promote child and adolescent mental health services, simple validated screening tools are helpful. In Mongolia, the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), an internationally used child and adolescent mental health screening tool for children aged 4–17, was translated but not yet validated. To use the questionnaire appropriately, validation is necessary. Methods Children at 4th year at elementary school (community sample) and children visited psychiatric outpatient service (clinical sample) were recruited and their parental version of the SDQ was compared. The discriminating ability of the parental version of the SDQ was examined using Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) analysis on the SDQ total difficulties score. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was used as a measure. Cut-off score was determined by normative banding that categorizes children with the highest 10% score range as abnormal and the second highest 10% as borderline following the original method; this cut-off score was compared with the cut-off score candidates with good balance between sensitivity and specificity using ROC analysis. Results We included 2301 children in the community sample, and 429 children in the clinical sample. Mean age was 9.7 years (SD 0.4, range 8.3–12.0) among the community sample and 10.4 years (SD 3.8, range 4.0–17.8) among the clinical sample. The mean total difficulties score was 12.9 (SD 4.8) among the community sample and 20.4 (SD 6.2) among the clinical sample. A total of 88.8% of the community sample and 98.8% of the clinical sample answered the SDQ. Using ROC analysis, the AUC was 0.82 (95% confident interval 0.80–0.85), which meant moderate discriminating ability. Using normative banding, the borderline cut-off score was 16/17 and abnormal cut-off score was 19/20. For cut-off scores of 16/17 and 19/20, sensitivity was 71.9 and 53.8% and specificity was 78.5 and 90.5%, respectively. The cut-off score candidates by ROC analysis were 16/17 and 17/18. Conclusions The parental version of the SDQ had moderate discriminating ability among Mongolian school-age children. For the screening of mental health problems among community children, cut-off score of 16/17 is recommended.

Pandemi Covid-19 di berbagai Negara termasuk Indonesia mengakibatkan Pemerintah membuat kebijakan lock down dan pembatasan sosial dengan berkerja, belajar dan beribadah dari rumah. Kebijakan school from home membuat remaja yang menempuh pendidikan formal menggantikan metode pembelajaran tatap muka dikelas menjadi pembelajaran online di rumah. Hal ini dinilai dapat memberikan dampak bagi psikologis remaja. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis masalah perilaku remaja siswa SMP di Kota Samarinda saat menjalani School From Home di Era Pandemi Covid-19. Penelitian ini merupakan analitik deskriptif korelasi dengan pendekatan cross sectional pada remaja siswa SMP dan sederajat di kota Samarinda yang dipilih secara multi stage cluster random dan pada sekolah yang terpilih diambil sebanyak 122 responden dengan menggunakan teknik simple random sampling. Variabel perilaku remaja diukur dengan menggunakan instrumen Strength and Difficulty Questionare yang memiliki nilai reliabilitas konsistensi internal α Cronbach sebesar 0,77 dan ICC > 0,60. Data dianalisis dengan menggunakan uji chi square dengan taraf signifikansi 95% (α=0,05). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya masalah emosional yang dialami oleh remaja. Terdapat hubungan antara gejala emosional dan perilaku prososial dengan gender remaja (p value < 0,05). Begitu pula dengan aspek kesulitan dan aspek kekuatan yang dimiliki oleh remaja juga memiliki hubungan dengan gender remaja (p value < 0,05).

The regular consumption of sweets has been shown to have an adverse association with the academic performance of children in developed countries; however, the situation in developing countries is less clear. Therefore, we examined the association between the consumption of sweets and academic performance among Mongolian children via a cross-sectional study employing data from 787 children aged 8–16 from two public schools in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia. The frequency of the consumption of sweets by the children was captured using a questionnaire and then linked to their academic scores; the association between the consumption of sweets and scores in mathematics and the Mongolian language was evaluated using multiple linear regression adjusted for other covariates. It was found that out of 787 students, 58.6% ate sweets every day. After adjusting for covariates, no significant association was observed between the consumption of sweets and mathematics scores (coefficient: 0.15; 95% confidence interval (CI): −0.02–0.32), while a higher consumption of sweets was significantly associated with higher scores in the Mongolian language (coefficient: 0.25; 95% CI: 0.09–0.41). The associations established in this study are inconsistent with the reports of other studies.
