| | Emotional distress leads children to doubt their competence |
| | A deeper understanding of the effects of emotional distress and the pathways by which they affect children is important. | | | The researchers found that emotionally distressed study participants were more likely to see themselves and their world in a negative light — and that these negative feelings subsequently decreased their perceptions of competency during the study period. | | | Many researchers have focused on understanding the origins of childhood emotional distress, but less is known about what happens after children experience such distress. |

| | In other words, although the research community doesn’t want the USDA to define distress or otherwise expand its authority over research practices (their standard response when enhancements of the AWA are considered), they nearly all agree on the definition that should be used if the USDA does decide to move forward. | | | A recent poll demonstrates that public opposition to animals in research greatly increases as the pain and distress in research animal experience increases. | | | the USDA to formally define distress and propose a new/revised scale of pain and distress, is currently awaiting a response to its June, 2005 letter urging action. |

| | TECHBRIEF Key Findings From LTPP Distress Data |
| | The planned outcome of the study was to be a "consolidated distress data set" in which data collected by both methods were combined after careful examination of the time trends in each distress type considered to reconcile differences attributable to the distress survey methodology. | | | In both approaches, the type, severity, and extent of the distress observed on the pavement are determined and recorded by trained personnel using the definitions and measurement and rating criteria provided in LTPP’s distress identification manual. | | | Thus, no reconciliation of data differences due to distress survey methods is needed prior to combining photographic and manual distress data for use in subsequent analysis. |

| | A chest x-ray indicates respiratory distress (the lungs develop a characteristic "ground glass" appearance). | | | Long-term complications may develop as a result of oxygen toxicity, high pressures delivered to the lungs, the severity of the condition itself, or periods when the brain or other organs did not receive enough oxygen. | | | Respiratory distress syndrome is one of the most common lung disorders in premature infants and causes increasing difficulty in breathing. |
