Catalyzing collective action in evidence‐based parenting support
Examining perceived ageism and age-related stereotypes as potential moderators of the associations between biologically based risk factors and engagement with life in older adulthood
How people experience their own ageing may impact how likely they are to remain engaged with life. This study examined (1) biologically based risk factors in the form of self-reported health and cognition, and (2) age-related stereotypes and frequency of perceived ageism as predictors of engagement with life and number of ‘close’ social connections in older adulthood. We aimed to move beyond studies focusing on direct links between ageism and psy…
Self-Compassion, Stressor Exposure, and Negative Affect
These findings suggest that self-compassion in older adults should be conceptualized as both state and trait variables and that state self-compassion may be protective in the stress-reactivity pathway. Future research should investigate whether brief self-compassion interventions might help older adults to avoid or downregulate negative emotions in response to stressors
The role of social identity and self-efficacy in predicting service providers’ use of Stepping Stones Triple P following training
SSTP professionals’ delivery data were analysed with survey data from 2 years after training. • Social identity was associated with delivery of Stepping Stones Triple P in independent analysis. • Self-efficacy mediated the relationship between social identity and use of SSTP. Identifying factors that may contribute to the use of programs following the completion of training by practitioners is of practical and theoretical importance. This study e…
The role of parenting‐ and employment‐related variables on fathers' involvement in their children's education
BACKGROUND: Parent involvement strongly correlates with children's educational attainment. Sociocultural shifts in parenting roles and shared responsibilities have driven an increase in the need for involvement of fathers in activities to support their children's educational development. Several factors are thought to influence father involvement in children's education; however, the most salient factors remain unclear. AIMS: To examine which var…

The battle-hardened academic
Academics working in higher education institutions often take part in research activities as part of their role and are often under pressure to publish papers and source grant funding. In addition, academics going through the peer review process often experience negative feedback, criticism, and rejection on a regular basis. In this initial, small-scale, exploratory study, data was collected to answer the question: What factors influence the resi…

School connectedness is an important protective factor for adolescent mental health. The researchers interviewed 21 mothers of students aged 11–16 years on the autism spectrum in urban and regional Australia to explore factors that influenced school connectedness and how these mothers constructed roles in supporting their children’s school connectedness. Mothers positioned themselves as indispensable, with no choice but to be highly involved. The…
Measuring intimacy as a contextual behavioral process
A pilot study of a new bereavement program for children
We assessed the acceptability and effectiveness of a new childhood bereavement service known as Lionheart Camp for Kids. Using a pre-post-follow-up design, data pertaining to 12 bereaved children (aged 5-12 years) and their primary caregivers were obtained. Results showed that caregivers reported decreases in children's peer relationship problems, improvements in parental consistency, and reductions in coercive parenting, and there was a trend to…
