Preventing problematic internet use during the Covid-19 pandemic
As a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many governments have introduced steps such as spatial distancing and "staying at home" to curb its spread and impact. The fear resulting from the disease, the 'lockdown' situation, high levels of uncertainty regarding the future, and financial insecurity raise the level of stress, anxiety, and depression experienced by people all around the world. Psychoactive substances and other reinforcing behaviors (e.…

Including gaming disorder in the ICD-11: The need to do so from a clinical and public health perspective
The proposed introduction of gaming disorder (GD) in the 11th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) has led to a lively debate over the past year. Besides the broad support for the decision in the academic press, a recent publication by van Rooij et al. (2018) repeated the criticism raised against the inclusion of GD in ICD-11 by Aarseth et al. (2017). We argue that this…

Problem Gambling and Intimate Partner Violence
This study provides a systematic review of the empirical evidence related to the association between problem gambling and intimate partner violence (IPV). We identified 14 available studies in the systematic search (8 for victimisation only, 4 for perpetration only and 2 for both victimisation and perpetration). Although there were some equivocal findings, we found that most of the available research suggests that there is a significant relations…

Why People Gamble
In multicultural countries such as New Zealand, it is particularly important that gambling research take into account possible cultural differences. Many New Zealanders come from cultures that do not have a history of gambling, including the Mäori (New Zealand indigenous people), Pacific Islanders, and recent migrants. Little research has examined the reasons why people start and continue to gamble, especially among different ethnic groups. This …

Recent Warming Reverses Long-Term Arctic Cooling
Climate Reversal The climate and environment of the Arctic have changed drastically over the short course of modern observation. Kaufman et al. (p. 1236 ) synthesized 2000 years of proxy data from lakes above 60° N latitude with complementary ice core and tree ring records, to create a paleoclimate reconstruction for the Arctic with a 10-year resolution. A gradual cooling trend at the start of the record had reversed by the beginning of the 20th …

Housing stressors and persons with serious mental health problems
This paper describes the correlates and predictors of exposure to housing stressors among a sample of people with serious mental health problems and assesses the extent to which this experience detracts from their well-being in the community. Data were collected in a cross-sactional, two-city sample study conducted in two of New Zealand's largest cities, Auckland and Christchurch. Respondents were 203 former psychiatric inpatients, who, compared …
Key Indicators of the Transition from Social to Problem Gambling
International Preferences in Selecting Mates
This study sought to identify the effects of culture and sex on mate preferences using samples drawn world-wide. Thirty-seven samples were obtained from 33 countries located on six continents and five islands (N = 9,474). Hierarchical multiple regressions revealed strong effects of both culture and sex, moderated by specific mate characteristics. Chastity proved to be the mate characteristic on which cultures varied the most. The preference order…

Housing stressors, social support and psychological distress
The stress of incipient homelessness
This paper describes a longitudinal study of dwelling‐related stress among a sample of inadequately housed urban New Zealanders. At the time of the first interview, the respondents were asked to describe the housing problems they were encountering and to list some of the coping strategies they were planning. From an analysis of the survey data we conclude that housing stress has a significant negative effect on the well being of the respondents, …

Facilitating social support among community psychologists
Over the past few years, a network of regional coordinators has promoted a variety of community psychology activities in the United States and other countries, creating a base of social support for community psychologists in academic and field settings. This paper describes key organizing principles for creating viable support networks such as this one and presents specific examples of their use by the regional coordinators. The grassroots effort…

Housing stressors, social support and psychological distress
Housing stressors and social support among the seriously mentally Ill
This paper explores the links between housing‐related stressors and psychological distress among the seriously mentally ill. The housing that is typically available for the mentally ill is often grossly inadequate, and can represent a significant source of additional stress. We hypothesize, however, that for some people the adverse effect of housing stress is mitigated by effective social supports. In other words, the stress/symptom relationship …
