Measuring psychological inflexibility in educational settings
Psychological inflexibility (PI) is a potentially important yet understudied factor in therapist training, as it may hinder engagement in learning activities central to psychotherapy education and is negatively associated with learner wellbeing. However, few instruments have been developed to assess PI in educational and training contexts, and evidence from psychotherapy training population is limited. This study aimed to develop a new measure of…
Reach and predictors of effects during nation-wide dissemination of the universal parenting program All Children in Focus
A fairly representative group of parents across Sweden were reached by ABC. Background variables, homework completion, and group leaders' experience explained a small proportion of variance in the outcomes. Meanwhile, the slightly lower intervention effects found for preschool children and parents born abroad calls for further investigation, since even small differences in effects can have an impact at a population level. The study also points to…
"The Curse of the Caribbean"? Agency's Impact on the Productivity of Sugar Estates on St. Vincent and the Grenadines, 1814-1829
This study estimates agency's impact on sugar plantation productivity using a unique early nineteenth-century panel data set from St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Results of fixed effects models, combined with a qualitative and quantitative analysis of potential endogeneity of the agency variable, provide no evidence that estates managed by agents were less productive than those managed by their owners. We discuss the results in the context of the…
The Savry Improves Prediction of Reoffending
Purpose: This study investigated the utility of the risk assessment “Structured Assessment of Violence Risk in Youth” (SAVRY) within the social services in Stockholm County, Sweden. Method: SAVRY assessments of 56 adolescents were compared to assessments guided by another instrument (Adolescent Drug Abuse Diagnosis [ADAD]; n = 38) and assessments without support of a structured method ( n = 38). Results: The results showed that social workers con…
