Hello Craig. Is it possible to include Jordanian school children in the project of SWPS any time soon?
I was thinking of conducting a study examining the relationship between changes in the lifestyle, food preferences and the prevalence of childhood obesity. Perhaps we can also consider adding both attitudinal and physical bio markers, such as BMI, HBA1C, and serum leptin to predict DM. What do you think?
Sorry for the confusion, but I was in a hurry trying to do so many things at the same time. Yes, I would like to resume our collaboration, if you may. I understand that you are working on SWPS study with school children and I'm interested in promoting the concept of wellness promotion among school children in Jordan. I'm currently working in a public, rural university with so little research conducted in this area.
That should be OK. I suggest however that we work on the original SWPS on Jordanian children as the adult Arabic version might not be adequate and we might get different results. Remember that recycling was not among the issues that obtained a significant effect. This could be different among school children as, for instance, they are now taught to perform recycling on particular used materials. What do you think?
Yes, Indeed. We need to talk. Lets arrange for a meeting next week. Which days are fine for you? I believe that time difference is 9 hours (we are 3 hours ahead of GMT); 12 MD in Jordan is 9 am in London, GMT.
Yes,I'd like to participate in a plan on school-age children. I have a project "Secular changes in age at menarche and obesity during puberty" .
I would not mind participating in the project you propose. However, I do not know very well if what you want is to have my experience in similar projects or to collaborate by providing a sample for the study or what. Can you clarify this question?
Hello everybody,
I was thinking of conducting a study that investigates both pyscho-social well-being and biosphysiological markers that correlate with the well-being of students. There is some effort on the correlation between childhood obesity, life style and the prevalence of early adulthood diabetes. Additionally, other markers could be important, such as BMI, leptin, and even vitamin serum levels (such as B12 and D). This is a rich area of investigation. But we can determine our priorities first and then decide on the variables which can be included in the study.
