3. Study questions
• To what extent does school performance
explaine the influence of biological development
on the educational process?
– Which are the best indicators to follow in the change
process of the high school structure?
4. • “The Ministry of Education approved to adapt the educational
content to the mental age of children without taking into account
their biological age (the homogeneity of biological age in classes
and the eligibility of special education only up to 18 years of age,
were some of the characteristics of our national education system).”

5. Old hypothesis
• “Early biological maturation may have
negative long-term consequences within
the education domain.”
» David Magnusson, Håkan Stattin and Vernon L. Allen.
Biological maturation and social development: A
longitudinal study of some adjustment processes from
mid-adolescence to adulthood.
Journal of Youth and Adolescence,
Volume 14, Number 4 / August, 1985, Pages 267-283
7. Milestones of development
• Stages of development may
overlap or be associated with
specific other aspects of
development.
• Transition into a stage may not
mean that the previous stage
is completely finished.
• Horizontal decalage (Piaget)
– “children could solve one type
of problem using mature
thinking skills, but could not
accomplish this for less
familiar problems.”
• Stages of personality (Erik
Erikson, 1968)
– “a lifetime is spent in
reworking issues that were
originally characteristic of a
childhood stage.”
8. A time of "storm and stress"
• Biological changes
associated with puberty:
– shifts in the shape of the
body,
– increases in hormones,
– changes in brain
architecture.
• Directly linked changes:
– changes in sexual
interest,
– cognitive capacities,
– physical capacities.
• Social changes
associated with:
– school-linked transitions,
– changes in the roles
adolescents are expected
to play by all those around
them.
• Psychological changes
linked to increasing social
and cognitive maturity.
9. Bio-psychosocial development
biological psychological social
changes in body
shape, appearance
and function
(puberty)
changes in the way of
thinking about
oneself (identity and
sexual identity) and
the ability to think
about the world
(thinking pattern)
changes in the way
young people relate
to their families, to
other young people,
and to the outside
world
11. “Biological age”
• Person-environment fit theory
» Jacquelynne Eccles et al.
– “negative motivational and behavioral changes [...] stem from many
junior and senior high schools not providing appropriate educational
environments for youth in early and middle adolescence”
• According to person-environment theory, individuals' behavior,
motivation, and mental health are influenced by the fit between the
characteristics individuals bring to their social environments and the
characteristics of these social environments.
12. Methods
• Source of data:
– A cross-sectional study conducted in Timiş County, Romania,
between May and June 2005.
• Selection procedure:
– From a total of 1,083 primary sampling units (classes),
• 149 were randomly selected and stratified proportionally according
to
– grades 9–12,
– high school profile (theoretical, industrial, vocational and confessional),
and
– urban / rural environment.
13. • Sample profile
– A total of 48 schools
participated in the study.
• Procedure
– students completed a self-
administered questionnaire
in their classrooms.
• class response rate - 97.9%
• student response rate - 76.2%,
• overall response rate - 74.6%

15. “CORT study”
• The CORT Inventory is covering
risk behaviors for health such as:
– aggressive behaviors,
– nutrition habits,
– relation with family members
and peers,
– substance use etc.
• The Freiburg Personality Inventory
(FPI) is comprising eleven primary
personality factors:
– Nervousness,
– Spontaneous Aggressiveness,
– Depressiveness,
– Irritability,
– Sociability,
– Calmness,
– Striving for Dominance,
– Inhibition,
– Sincerity,
– Extraversion,
– Emotional Lability
16. Procedure
• A pilot test was conducted to establish the validity and
reliability of the instrument.
– Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient was determined for the
main parts of the questionnaire investigating family environment,
consumption of alcohol, smoking, drug use, sexual behavior,
violence, physical activity and other health-related topics.
• Reliability coefficient values ranging from 0.55 to 0.79 were found,
indicating that participants responded consistently to questionnaire
items.
• Anonymity was assured.
17. Data analyses
• Binary logistic
regressions
• Univariate analyses
– Chi-Square Test
– Mann-Whitney Test
– Median Test

41. • “Their are periods of crisis in child development
during which there is a qualitative transformation
in the child's mental functioning.”
» Lev Vygotsky, 1930
– "Every function in the child's cultural development appears
twice: first, on the social level, and later, on the individual level;
first, between people (interpsychological) and then inside the
child (intrapsychological). This applies equally to voluntary
attention, to logical memory, and to the formation of concepts.
All the higher functions originate as actual relationships
between individuals.”
42. Suggestion
• Unfair school competition system ?
– Progressive biological development of students needs
to meet specific responses from the part of the
society in accordance with their multifarious needs.
• Recommendation
– Change the structure of the school systems in
keeping with the “biological age” of students.
