Exploring how climate change anxiety differs from other mental health problems in youth
A rapidly growing research base is emerging around psychological responses to climate change, showing emotional and functional impairments. The concept of “climate change anxiety” (CCA) is still being developed, and more research is needed to explore how it interacts with mental health, particularly in youth. This study aimed to explore the degree to which CCA differentiates from other mental health problems in youth. As a secondary aim, this stu…
Palestinian youth’s future thinking in context
The aim in this exploratory study was to characterise Palestinian youth’s future thinking in terms of content, scope and function. A qualitative design was used. Individual online interviews were conducted with 11 participants (mean age of 20.73 years). All participants were residents of the West Bank or Jerusalem. Qualitative data in the form of transcripts obtained from the individual interviews were analysed using Reflexive Thematic Analysis. …
Early childhood deprivation and the impact of negative life events on mental health in later life
There was no evidence that early severe institutional deprivation increased susceptibility to depression and anxiety following exposure to independent or dependent LE in general. However, it appeared to sensitize adolescents to the effects of peer-related LE specifically. We discuss possible mechanisms by which difficulties in peer relations might influence the emergence of depression and anxiety to already vulnerable individuals
Coming to terms with climate change
Climate change is a major threat to global health. Its effects on physical health are increasingly recognised, but mental health impacts have received less attention. The mental health effects of climate change can be direct (resulting from personal exposure to acute and chronic climatic changes), indirect (via the impact on various socioeconomic, political and environmental determinants of mental health) and overarching (via knowledge, education…
Climate Worry and Hope Have Different Associations with Well-being and Climate-Friendly Behaviors across Young People from Sweden and Qatar
Climate change is a global crisis posing exceptional threats and demands on our younger generations. Our aim was to understand how climate-change worry and hope relate to climate-friendly behaviors, life satisfaction, and negative affect in young people across Qatar and Sweden—countries with different climates and challenges. Data from young people between 16 and 19 years of age from Sweden (n = 277; 61.37% female) and Qatar (n = 134; 49.25% fema…
Vulnerability pathways to mental health outcomes in children and parents during Covid-19
We examined pathways from pre-existing psychosocial and economic vulnerability to mental health difficulties and stress in families during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data from two time points from a multi-cohort study initiated during the COVID-19 pandemic were used. Parents of children 6–18 years completed questionnaires on pre-COVID-19 socioeconomic and demographic factors in addition to material deprivation and stress due to COVID-19 restrictions,…
An examination of the underlying dimensional structure of three domains of contaminated mindware
The concept of contaminated mindware provides one conceptualization for measuring beliefs and attitudes about three domains that have evaluation-disabling properties in the context of reasoning: paranormal beliefs, conspiracy beliefs, and anti-science attitudes. We tested the underlying structure of individual differences in these three domains of contaminated mindware and their predictors in a sample of 321 Canadian undergraduate students. The p…
Criminogenic Need Profiles Among Substance-Using Justice-Involved Youth
The relationship between juvenile offending and substance use is well-documented. Understanding this relationship in the context of other criminogenic needs could lead to more effective treatment programming, in an effort to reduce future justice system involvement. This study retrospectively classified 276 substance-using youth in the justice system into unique profiles based on the nature and severity of self-reported substance use and criminog…
The cognitive, emotional, and behavioral sequelae of trauma exposure
We offer theoretically and empirically supported integrative pathways that explicate some aspects of trauma exposure's negative sequelae with potential areas for intervention. Clinical Impact Statement: Trauma exposure is widespread and is associated with negative views about oneself and the world and with difficulties in managing one's emotions, which in part is associated with individuals' risk for developing psychopathology and engaging in ris…
