Behaviour support in dentistry: A Delphi study to agree terminology in behaviour management.
Community Dent Oral Epidemiol
August 2024
Facultad de Odontología, Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile.
Article Synopsis
- The study focused on identifying and standardizing terms and descriptions for Dental Behaviour Support (DBS) techniques used in dentistry, aiming to improve clarity and understanding of these practices.
- Through a modified e-Delphi study involving 35 experts, a consensus was reached on 42 DBS techniques but agreement on distinguishing features for some techniques was less clear.
- The results suggest that while terminology for DBS techniques is now more consistent, categorizing these techniques based on learning principles remains complex due to varying contexts of application.

Ethical and legal issues are important in determining how doctors should behave in offering a diagnosis or treatment that may generate strong and unpredictable reactions from children, their families, or other agencies.

Despite the distress routinely observed among the parents of hyperactive children, there is little research on this in clinic populations.
Aims: To examine removals from home in a typical secondary care population, where hyperkinesis was accurately diagnosed.
How should we measure social disadvantage in clinic settings?
Eur Child Adolesc Psychiatry
December 2003
Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service, Skimped Hill Health Centre, Market Square, Bracknell RG12 1LH, UK.
Background: Despite a large research literature supporting their validity, deprivation indices derived from census data have not been routinely applied to clinic populations.
Method: A case-note sample of 201 cases was examined, to identify whether such data (Jarman indices) predicted presenting disability separately from diagnostic class (behaviour, emotional, mixed, other, and no diagnosable disorder), or conventional clinic measures of social adversity (ICD-10 psychosocial diagnostic codes).
Results: Jarman index scores predicted disability in behaviour disorders or other disorders.

Following the campaign, a survey of Immunisation Co-ordinators in England was conducted to identify strengths and weaknesses of the campaign. This paper summarises the main findings.
