Introduction: Parents can act as important agents of change and support for healthy childhood growth and development. Studies have found that parents may not be able to accurately perceive their child’s weight status. The purpose of this study was to measure parental perceptions of their child’s weight status and to identify predictors of potential parental misperceptions. Methods: We used data from the World Health Organization (WHO) European Childhood Obesity Surveillance Initiative and 22 countries. Parents were asked to identify their perceptions of their children’s weight status as “underweight,” “normal weight,” “a little overweight,” or “extremely overweight.” We categorized children’s (6–9 years; n = 124,296) body mass index (BMI) as BMI-for-age Z-scores based on the 2007 WHO-recommended growth references. For each country included in the analysis and pooled estimates (country level), we calculated the distribution of children according to the WHO weight status classificatio...

Parental perceptions of and concerns about child's body weight in eight European countries--the IDEFICS study2013 •
To evaluate parental perceptions of and concern about child's body weight and general health in children in a European cohort. Cross-sectional multi-centre study in eight European countries. 16,220 children, ages 2-9 years. Parents completed a questionnaire regarding children's health and weight and concern about overweight and underweight. Objective children's weight categories from the International Obesity Task Force were used. Logistic regression models were utilized to identify predictors of accurate weight perception. Parental weight perception corresponded overall to children's mean body mass index (BMI) z-scores, with important exceptions. About one-third of the total indicated concern about underweight, paradoxically most often parents of children in the overweight or obesity categories. In 63%, parents of children in the overweight category marked 'proper weight'. The strongest predictor for accurate parental weight perception for children with over...

Türk İnfaz Hukukunda Kadın Hükümlü ve Tutuklulara Ayrıcalıklı Uygulamalar2022 •
Günümüz infaz hukukunda hükümlüler infazın konusu olmaktan ziyade öznesi haline gelmiştir. İnfaz hukuku, insan haklarındaki kazanımlar ile birlikte, ceza hukuku bilimleri arasında insanilik (hümanizm) ilkesinin zirve yaptığı bir bilim dalı olarak yerini almıştır. İnfaz hukuku, fiilden çok failin esas alındığı ve infazın da bireyselleştirildiği bir ceza hukuku bilimleri olarak ilerlemektedir. İnfaz hukukunda, bu gelişmelere paralel olarak, kadın hükümlü ve tutuklular için ayrıcalıklı uygulamalara gidildiği gözlemlenmektedir. Örneğin özel infaz usullerinden biri olan konutta infaz için infaz hukukumuzda kadın hükümlüler için yaş sınırı aranmazken, erkek hükümlüler için bu usul, ağır bir hastalık ya da engellilik dışında, en az altmışbeş yaşının doldurulmuş olması şartına bağlanmıştır. İşte bu çalışmada, cinsiyete dayalı ayrıcalıklı uygulamaların eşitlik ilkesi karşısında nasıl değerlendirilmesi gerektiği hususunda açıklamalarda bulunulacaktır. Çalışma bu haliyle ayrıca kadının infaz hukukundaki yeri ve önemi konusunu da gündeme getirmiş olacaktır. Anahtar Kelimeler: İnfaz hukuku, İnfaz, Kadın, Eşitlik, Ayrımcılık.
