Abstract:
Objective:To explore the intelligence, self-concept and psychosocial adaptability among girls with precocious puberty,and to provide theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of precocious puberty in girls.
Methods:Performed the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence, the Piers-Harris Children’s Self-concept Scale and the Social Adaptive Quotient for evaluating the intelligence quotient (IQ), self-concept and psychosocial adaptability of 45 precocious girls and 90 normal girls,respectively. The differences between these two groups of girls were analyzed.
Results:The level of intelligence of precocious girls (119.80±16.37) was higher than that of normal girls (109.96±17.13)(t=3.19, P<0.01). The total score of self-concept of precocious girls (57.98±6.14) was lower than that of girls in the normal group (61.68±5.16)(t=3.68, P<0.01). Furthermore, the independent functional factors, cognitive functional factors, social self-control factors and ADQ of precocious girls were lower than those of normal girls (P<0.01), and 24.4% of them were at the lower limit of psychosocial adaptability, lower than those of normal girls(U=4.84,P<0.01).
Conclusion:Girls with precocious puberty show impairments on the development of intelligence, self-concept and psychosocial adaptability.
