Militarism or peace and justice
Psychological research on climate change has shifted its focus toward the way climate change influences psychological well-being. An exclusive focus on the consequences of climate change is misleading because there is an urgent need to address causes of climate change. The leading institutional user of fossil fuel and the single largest producer of greenhouse gases is a military force. The common argument that individuals must think differently a…
From Ending the War to Permanent War
Decades after the end of World War II, the world has yet to grasp the full meaning of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki remain surprisingly understudied in the s
Locked into the System? Critical Community Psychology Approaches to Personal Debt in the Context of Crises of Capital Accumulation
The considerable and sustained boom in personal debt recently has in many countries around the world led to experiences of over‐indebtedness that are associated with very considerable distress and suffering. This article explores critical perspectives that situate personal debt, material deprivation and suffering, and specific ways of knowing and acting, within the context of recent political and economic practices. There is a need to focus on po…
Individualism–collectivism and business context as predictors of behaviors in cross-national work settings
Extreme Forms of Child Labour in Turkey
Two little known forms of child labour in Turkey are examined. The process through which these children are made to work has parallels with the experiences of slaves. First, a long‐standing practice from Northwestern Turkey of parents hiring children to better‐off farmers is examined. Further, a more recent problem is examined where children are trafficked to big cities and forced to join criminal rings. Both forms of child labour are consequence…
Adolescent Social Crowds
This investigation examined several aspects of the construct social crowd in 489 White 7th, 9th, and 11th graders. The goals of the study were to examine (a) the congruence between self- and peer-nominated crowd membership and (b) the extent to which social crowd serves to channel adolescents’ friendships. Self- and peer-nominated crowd were reasonably congruent and both related in the same way to delinquency, substance use, and grade point avera…
Comer's School Development Program in Prince George's County, Maryland
A randomized experiment of Comer's School Development Program was conducted in 23 middle schools in Prince George's County, Maryland. The school population is predominantly African American, with considerable internal variation in household socioeconomic standing. This study involved repeated measurement with more than 12,000 students and 2,000 staff a survey of more than 1,000 parents, and extensive access to student records. It showed that Come…
Adolescent Friendship Selection and Termination
We examined friendship selection and termination on a wide variety of variables using longitudinal data from 1183, 6th, 8th and 10th graders in two school systems. To control for the effects of peer influence on similarity, adolescents were matched at Time 1 with the persons they would become friends with by Time 2. Adolescents were significantly similar to Time 1 about-to-be friends on minor delinquency and cigarette and alcohol use, the number …
Close friend and group influence on adolescent cigarette smoking and alcohol use
The relative influence of adolescents closest friends and their friendship group on their cigarette smoking and alcohol use was investigated in a short-term, longitudinal study of 1,028 students in the 6th, 8th, and 10th grades in 2 school systems. The amount of influence over the school year was modest in magnitude and came from the closest friend for initiation of cigarette and alcohol use. Only the friendship group use predicted transition int…
The structure of adolescent peer networks
Structural aspects of school-based peer networks of adolescents in 6th to 12th grade were mapped in 3 school systems. Female students were more connected to the peer network than were male students, and peer networks became more exclusive with increasing grade. The results also suggest that numeric minorities usually are less connected to school peer networks than the majority group. There was mixed evidence for hierarchical organization of the p…
