Difficulties in emotion regulation are associated with mental health problems during adolescence. This study aimed to identify distinct emotion regulation profiles in adolescents, examine potential differences between profiles, and examine transitions between profiles over time using a person-centered approach with Latent Profile Analysis and Latent Transition Analysis on longitudinal data from two time points in 198 adolescents (M age 14.20 at T…
Psychosocial school-based intervention among adolescents with migrant and native backgrounds
Positive social relationships are essential for supporting adolescents in multicultural schools.

Addressing climate change with behavioral science
Effectively reducing climate change requires marked, global behavior change. However, it is unclear which strategies are most likely to motivate people to change their climate beliefs and behaviors.

Across 59,440 participants from 63 countries, the interve…
