Racial microaggression and anxiety in young adults
Increasing reports of racial microaggressions raise concerns about their impact on young adults’ mental health. Social support can act as a protective process in the association between racial microaggressions and mental health symptoms. In this article, we used an egocentric network approach to examine the extent to which network size and functions of support moderated the effect of racial microaggressions on anxiety among racialized and White y…
The Impact of Cyberbullying Victimization on Adolescents’ School-Related Distress Across Nine Countries
The pervasive integration of technology into the daily lives of children and adolescents, coupled with the popularity and extensive use of social media by this age group, has raised significant concerns, highlighting cyberbullying victimization as a serious global public health issue that requires further investigation. The aim of the present study was to examine the impact of cyberbullying victimization above and beyond traditional forms of peer…
Utopia como Revolta Romântica
Este artigo demonstrará que o poema Ode to a Nightingale, do poeta romântico John Keats, forneceu ao romance utópico News from Nowhere (Notícias de Lugar Nenhum), de William Morris, um modelo em que a utopia se desenrolou. Para tanto, passar-se-á pelo ambiente histórico-intelectual de Morris e do movimento romântico, pela discussão sobre o conceito de Romantismo e pela discussão sobre a historicidade do conceito de utopia e da noção de tempo ali …
School (socie)ties
Introduction The current study aimed to expand on the existing literature by examining the effect of race-based victimization on academic functioning in a nation-wide sample of Brazilian youth. Methods The ENEM 2009 dataset contained academic functioning scores of 795,924 Brazilian students from 25,488 schools. Results Above and beyond the effect of general victimization, ethnic/racial victimization was significantly negatively related to academi…
Concrete or Abstract? The Effects of Picture Concreteness and Mental Illness Prevalence on Destigmatizing Mental Illnesses
This study investigated how picture concreteness (cartoon versus photo) and mental illness prevalence level (high versus low) in mental health messages influence mental illness stigma via a within-subjects online experiment (N = 92). Findings revealed that, compared to cartoons, photos elicited greater empathic closeness, decreased social distancing intention (especially for the low-prevalence mental illnesses of schizophrenia and bipolar disorde…
Just environments foster character
Justice is at the center of many definitions of character across various lines of research, yet there is little empirical research on how the justice of contexts can foster character virtues. The current study draws from a sample of 1,865 Brazilian fourth and fifth graders across two time points in 60 schools (42.7% White; 48.3% male). A multilevel structural equation model demonstrated the mediating role that justice beliefs play between authori…
Change over time in interactions between unfamiliar toddlers
The frequency and length of games, conflicts, and contingency sequences that took place between toddlers as they got to know one another were studied using archival data. The sample consisted of 28 unfamiliar 20- and 30-month-old toddlers (predominantly White, 16 males) who met separately with each of two other toddlers for 18 play dates. The frequency of games increased over time, while the frequency of conflict and contingency sequences decreas…
Unpacking the misfit effect
Social norms are vital for the functioning of adolescent peer groups; they can protect the well-being of groups and individual members, often by deterring harmful behaviors, such as aggression, through enforcement mechanisms like peer victimization; in adolescent peer groups, those who violate aggression norms are often subject to victimization. However, adolescents are nested within several levels of peer group contexts, ranging from small proxi…
Socially responsible children
Positive perceptions of school climate are associated with lower frequency of peer victimization and aggression in children. Understanding how school climate influences aggression and victimization is essential to guiding school-level interventions to enhance character strengths such as social responsibility. In this short-term longitudinal study, we test a theoretical model arguing that children’s social responsibility mediates the links between…
Gender minoritized students and academic engagement in Brazilian adolescents
Gender minoritized students experience unique challenges in their school environments that may have consequences for their educational outcomes, including academic engagement. The goal of the current study was to understand the association between gender identity and academic engagement among adolescents attending public high schools in Paraná, Brazil (N = 10,828). In particular, student perceptions of student-teacher relationships, school rule f…
Contextual variations in associations between measures of aggression and withdrawal and functioning with peers
Data from 790 older school-age (Mage = 10.2 years, SD = 1.2 years) girls (N = 427) and boys from Barranquilla, Colombia (N = 449) and Montréal, Canada (N = 331) were used to replicate findings reported by Valdivia et al. (2005). This prior study revealed contextual variations in the association between two measures of social behavior, specifically aggression and withdrawal, and two measures of effective functioning with peers, specifically sociom…
Self-Continuity Moderates the Association Between Sexual-Minority Status Based Discrimination and Depressive Symptoms
Self-continuity, or how an individual understands their sense of self as persisting from past to present and present to future, is an important aspect of the self-concept that is linked to mental health outcomes. This self-concept construct may be particularly pertinent for sexual minority populations, as living in a heterosexist environment may prove detrimental for the development of self-continuity. The current study examined self-continuity a…
Psychosocial assessment of the family in the clinical setting

Sexual Activity and Attitudes as Predictors of Sexual Satisfaction During Pregnancy
Self‐Continuity Moderates the Association Between Peer Victimization and Depressed Affect
Two longitudinal studies conducted with early adolescents (ages 10-13) examined the hypothesis that self-continuity, or the degree to which individuals feel that they remain the same person over time regardless of how their specific characteristics may change, would moderate the association between victimization and depressed affect. Both Study 1 (N = 141) and Study 2 (N = 100) provided evidence of the moderating role of self-continuity as a buff…
Prenatal androgen exposure and parental care interact to influence timing of reproductive maturation in marmosets
The timing of reproductive maturation is susceptible to hormonal and environmental influences, and variation in this timing can be partially attributed to the prenatal and post-natal environment. We examined associations between prenatal steroid exposure and the post-natal family environment on the variability in reproductive maturation timing in young marmosets (Callithrix geoffroyi). Urine samples from pregnant females were analyzed for cortiso…
Work-family conflict among Black, White, and Hispanic men and women
Are there racial/ethnic differences in work–family conflict? Using a nationally representative survey of Americans, we analyze differences in work–family conflict among Blacks, Whites, and Hispanics and then utilize an intersectional approach, disaggregating men and women within each racial/ethnic group. Using structural equation modeling, we find that the usual predictors of conflict – family and work characteristics – have varied effects on wor…
Mother–child Attachment and Social Withdrawal in Urban Chinese Children
We examined the association between mother–child attachment and social withdrawal in Chinese urban children. Participants in the 1.5-year longitudinal study were 142 Chinese children (74 boys, 68 girls), who were initially aged between 6 and 10 years. Self-reported mother–child attachment style was measured at Time 1 and Time 2. Two subtypes of social withdrawal (i.e., shyness and unsociability) were measured by self-rating and peer nomination at…
Androgyny in Liking and in Being Liked Are Antecedent to Well-Being in Pre-Adolescent Boys and Girls
Factors Underlying Contextual Variations in the Structure of the Self
Multilevel modeling was used to examine contextual variations in the structure of the “self” in a sample of 918 lower‐ and upper‐middle class early adolescents ( M age = 10.37 years, SD = 1.19) from a “majority” cultural context (i.e., B arranquilla in the C aribbean region of C olombia) and a “nonmajority” context (i.e., M ontréal, Q uébec, C anada). It was expected that the associations between measures of the self‐concept (i.e., indices of sel…

Effects of Homophobic versus Nonhomophobic Victimization on School Commitment and the Moderating Effect of Teacher Attitudes in Brazilian Public Schools
This study investigated homophobic victimization, teacher support, and school commitment in Brazilian schools. Participants were 339 students, ages 11 to 18 years old, in two public schools in Brazil. Data were obtained using the Brazil Preventing School Harassment Survey. Structural equation modeling revealed that both homophobic and nonhomophobic victimization were negatively related to school commitment but that homophobic victimization was a …
The development and feasibility of a brief risk reduction intervention for newly HIV‐diagnosed men who have sex with men
Men who have sex with men (MSM) represent more than half of all new HIV infections in the United States. Utilizing a collaborative, community‐based approach, a brief risk reduction intervention was developed and pilot tested among newly HIV‐diagnosed MSM receiving HIV care in a primary care setting. Sixty‐five men, within 3 months of diagnosis, were randomly assigned to the experimental condition or control condition and assessed at baseline, 3‐m…
The presence of a best friend buffers the effects of negative experiences
The goal of the current study was to examine how the presence of a best friend might serve as protection against the effect of negative experiences on global self-worth and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis (HPA axis). A total of 103 English-speaking male (n = 55) and female (n = 48) participants from Grade 5 (M = 10.27 years) and Grade 6 (M = 11.30 years) completed booklets about their experiences that occurred 20 min previously and…
