Young adults in times of overlapping social crises: Dynamic profiles of mental health and crisis-related concerns using latent transition analysis
In recent years, young adults have navigated multiple, simultaneous crises - COVID-19, war in Ukraine, economic turbulence, climate change, and rapid AI growth - which pose complex mental-health risks. Drawing on multisystemic resilience models and the dual-factor model of mental health, we examine how individual (emotion-regulation difficulties), relational (attachment, social support), and contextual resources (social engagement, place attachme…
From Childhood Wounds to Adult Desires: Understanding the Link Between Childhood Maltreatment and Materialism in Young Adult
The literature suggests that negative childhood experiences that affect a child's self‐concept are one of the determinants of materialism in adulthood. This study investigated the relationship between retrospectively reported childhood maltreatment and materialism in young adulthood in order to understand the psychological mechanisms of this relationship by testing a serial triple mediation model with recalled childhood self‐esteem, recalled chil…
How do attachments to people and places affect the relationship between the use of virtual places and mental health
In recent years, technologies such as social media, virtual reality, and games have become integral parts of our daily lives. While research has examined their impact on mental health, there is limited focus on factors that moderate this relationship. One factor that may help clarify this relationship is the strength and quality of our relationships with people and places in the physical world, as these real-world connections may influence whethe…
Positive experiences in the parent–child relationship during the Covid ‐19 lockdown in Poland: The role of emotion regulation, empathy, parenting self‐efficacy, and social support
Despite the impact of the COVID‐19 outbreak being largely negative on parents and children, for some families, lockdown could also bring about some positive effects, for example, increased emotional closeness, and more time for joint activity. The aim of the current study was to investigate cross‐sectionally the most important correlates of the positive experiences in the parent–child relationship among Polish mothers and fathers during the lockd…
Factors associated with burnout in Polish healthcare workers during the Covid-19 pandemic
Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has placed the healthcare system under substantial strain that has caused elevated psychological distress among healthcare workers (HCWs). Previous studies have found a high prevalence of burnout among HCWs exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and have delineated some associated factors, but further research is needed. Little is known, for example, whether the economic status of HCWs or experiencing negative an…
Misophonia in Children and Adolescents: Age Differences, Risk Factors, Psychiatric and Psychological Correlates. A Pilot Study with Mothers’ Involvement
Misophonia is a type of disorder characterized by decreased sound tolerance. While it typically begins in childhood, research on its characteristics in this population is limited. We assessed 90 children aged 7-18 with and without misophonia, along with their mothers, using interviews, questionnaires, and performance-based tests. Younger children with misophonia were more likely to use aggression in response to triggers than older, while adolesce…

Investigation of the Factor Structure of the Reflective Functioning Questionnaire (RFQ-8): One or Two Dimensions
There is a need to have reliable and accessible screening measures of mentalizing ability to investigate the role of this capacity in social functioning and its development, emergence of psychopathological conditions, as well as to understand its role in psychotherapeutic processes. The 8-itemed Reflective Functioning Questionnaire (RFQ-8) has been developed for this purpose, however its factor structure and psychometric properties are unclear. T…

Risk of Developing Post-traumatic Stress Disorder in Severe Covid-19 Survivors, Their Families and Frontline Healthcare Workers: What Should Mental Health Specialists Prepare For
Given the high mortality of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), having severe COVID-19 may be a life-threatening event, especially for individuals at high risk of complications. Therefore, in the article we try to answer two questions that are relevant to public mental health: Can we define groups who are at higher risk of developing pandemic-related PTSD? How can health specialists prepare for it? Given the results of previous research on P…

Relations between multidimensional attitude toward death and psychological distress in firefighters
To investigate firefighters' multidimensional attitude toward death and psychological distress, 60 firefighters completed the Death Attitude Profile-Revised and the General Health Questionnaire-28. As predicted, fear of death and escape acceptance were positively related to severe depression and anxiety/insomnia. However, contrary to predictions, neutral acceptance and death avoidance were not associated with psychological distress. Our results i…
