Abstract

Objective To explore the influence of pubertal timing on learning adaptation in junior high school students, so as to provide reference for the prevention and intervention of junior high school students' learning adaptation. Methods From April to June 2019, 1 677 students were sampled by stratified cluster sampling from three middle schools in Zhoukou and Xiangcheng, Henan Province. The Chinese version of Youth Development Scale and Learning Adaptation Scale were used for questionnaire survey. Results The scores of learning task, learning attitude and learning achievement of female students were higher than those of male students, and the differences were statistically significant(t=-2.34, -2.14, -5.81, P < 0.05); The learning attitude, academic performance, interpersonal environment score of grade 7 were higher than that of grade 9, the total learning adaptation score of grade 7 was higher than that of grade 8, the differences were statistically significant(F=1.95, 1.87, 2.24, 1.37, P < 0.05). Partial correlation analysis showed that junior high school students' pubertal timing was negatively correlated with the total scores of learning tasks and learning adaptation(r=-0.15, -0.13, P < 0.05). The scores of learning task, total score of learning adaptation and academic performance of the earlier group were lower than those of the later group, and the scores of learning attitude of the earlier group were lower than those of the moderate group, the differences were statistically significant(F=4.76, 1.97, 3.23, 3.80, P < 0.01). Regression analysis showed that pubertal timing had a significant negative predictive effect on learning adaptation scores and learning tasks(β=-0.12, -0.13, P < 0.05). Conclusion The pubertal timing of junior high school students is closely related to learning adaptation, and pubertal timing will lead to the increased risk of learning adaptation of junior high school students. Schools should carry out corresponding health education and provide professional psychological counseling services, so as to improve the learning adaptation among early starters.
