    Reducing behaviour problems in young people through social competence programmes.

    There is a relatively strong relationship between the concepts of behavioural problems and social competence, in that social competence is regarded as one of the most important protective factors in the prevention of behavioural problems. This paper argues that the concept of social competence should include social skills, social practice and empathic understanding. It identifies the components that form part of an effective social competence programme, including enhancing an understanding of social situations, increasing the generation of adequate social skills, improving the management of provocations which may lead to uncontrolled anger, and developing empathic understanding. The evidence also suggests that effective social competence programmes for children and young people should be multi modal and consist of mixed groups of pupils with and without difficulties. The paper concludes with a brief description of Aggression Replacement Training as an example of a programme which follows the recommended guidelines

    Synthesis of 5-substituted pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyridazines with antioxidant properties. Ostby OB, Gundersen LL, Rise F, Antonsen O, Fosnes K, Larsen V, Bast A, Custers I, Haenen GR. Department of Chemistry, University of Oslo, P.O. Box 1033, Blindern, N-0315 Oslo, Norway. 5-Substituted pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyridazines have been prepared by cyclisation of pyridazine with diphenylcyclopropenone followed by further functionalisations in the pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyridazine 5-position. Several compound exhibit profound inhibition of lipid peroxidation in vitro. Lipid peroxidation of boiled rat liver microsomes was induced by ascorbic acid/FeSO4 and the peroxidation was determined by measuring the thiobarbituric acid reactive materia
