A Social-Belonging Intervention Benefits Higher Weight Students’ Weight Stability and Academic Achievement
Psychological interventions can narrow college achievement gaps between students from nonstigmatized and stigmatized groups. However, no intervention we know of has investigated effects for one highly stigmatized group: people of higher bodyweights. We analyzed data from a prematriculation social-belonging intervention trial at 22 colleges, which conveyed that adversity in the college transition is normative, temporary, and nondiagnostic of lack …
Boosting college prospects among low-income students
Access to college for students from low-income families is disproportionately low because of many factors.

Predictors of Successful Quitting among Thai Adult Smokers
This study uses longitudinal data from the International Tobacco Control Southeast Asia (ITC-SEA Thailand) survey to explore patterns and predictors of successful quitting among Thai adult smokers as a function of time quit.

Over the four years of follow-up, 97% made a…
Patterns of cognitive dissonance-reducing beliefs among smokers
Smokers are motivated to rationalise their behaviour through the endorsement of more positive beliefs about smoking, and these beliefs change systematically with changes in smoking status. More work is needed to determine if this cognitive dissonance-reducing function has an inhibiting effect on any subsequent intentions to quit
