Adverse Childhood Experiences and Adolescent Mental Health Symptoms
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are associated with poor mental health. Evidence suggests that positive peer interactions may buffer these effects, while negative peer interactions may exacerbate this relationship. This longitudinal study assessed Australia adolescents in Year 8 at baseline ( N = 4074, mean age 13.89 years) who reported ACEs, internalising and externalising symptoms, and peer interactions (positive and negative) between Augu…

There is a need to involve individuals with a lived experience in health and medical research. Some organizations have developed mechanisms to seek the input of people with a lived experience. However, there are few examples of qualitative research into the impacts of participation. In this study, we investigate the social and emotional impact of participation on individuals, as well as the perceived impact on the organization, in an advisory pan…
School-based depression and anxiety prevention programs for young people
Affective enhancement of working memory is maintained in depression
We currently know little about how performance on assessments of working memory capacity (WMC) that are designed to mirror the concurrent task demands of daily life are impacted by the presence of affective information, nor how those effects may be modulated by depression-a syndrome where sufferers report global difficulties with executive processing. Across 3 experiments, we investigated WMC for sets of neutral words in the context of processing…
Mood repair and processing mode in depression
Recalling positive autobiographical memories is a powerful emotion regulation strategy that can be used to repair low mood and alleviate negative affect. Unlike healthy individuals, those with current or past depression do not experience an improvement in mood as a consequence of recalling positive memories. We tested whether differences in processing mode might account for this impairment. Following mood induction procedures designed to ensure e…
