<p>The present research utilized intergroup threat theory (ITT) to examine the extent to which threat perceptions of undocumented Mexican immigrants predicted immigration policy attitudes. We conceptualized intergroup threat as symbolic threat, realistic threat, anxiety, negative stereotyping, and extended prior investigations of ITT by assessing <em>positive</em> stereotyping. Two of the four dependent measures were nonspecific to country of origin: views on general immigration policy and pro-immigration attitudes. The two country-specific measures included views on policies directly implicating immigration from Mexico and agreement with providing Mexican immigrants with basic resources in detention centers. We hypothesized that symbolic threat, realistic threat, anxiety, and negative stereotyping would predict more punitive views on all outcome measures, while positive stereotyping would predict more favorable attitudes. The study recruited 175 U.S. adults through Amazon Mechanical Turk. In regression analyses, symbolic threat corresponded with more punitive attitudes on all dependent measures except pro-immigration attitudes. Realistic threat predicted punitive general policy and lower pro-immigration attitudes. Anxiety predicted harsher views on general and Mexico-specific policies. Stereotyping showed evidence of unique predictive effects: negative stereotyping predicted punitive views on general and Mexico-specific policies, while positive stereotyping was linked to more favorable pro-immigration attitudes and support for providing resources in detention (and marginally less punitive general policy views). Exploratory structural equation modeling revealed that only symbolic threat predicted general and Mexico-specific policy attitudes and only positive stereotyping predicted views on resources in detention. The present research highlights the nuanced ways in which intergroup threat perceptions, including positive stereotypes, are associated with immigration attitudes.

<p>Our study explored the meaning Latin American youth ascribe to their family role over distance using the perspective of Guatemalan and Mexican migrant youths in U.S. agriculture. We examined the nuance in their understanding of “emancipation” and family interdependence concerning international migration and farmwork. A thematic analysis guided the study among a purposive sample of <em>N</em> = 20 Latin American young men working in agriculture in Florida and Georgia, ages 15–20. Half of them were undocumented minors from Guatemala, and the others were young adult H-2A temporary visa holders from Mexico. Audio voice-recorded interviews were conducted in Spanish and transcribed using NVivo 14. Data generated two core themes regarding independence and family interdependence in the United States: (a) the word “emancipated” is emotionally complex and unfamiliar, and (b) family interdependence is maintained despite living in the United States by themselves. Our findings point out that for Latin American migrant youth, emancipated is not culturally aligned or relevant. Instead, these youth carry more collective values aligned with Latin American norms. Findings highlighted that unaccompanied youth from Latin America see themselves as interdependent with family across borders rather than emancipated.

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#494949;text-align:justify;font-size:13px;">
<p><p>A Virginia Tech study shows that ultra-processed foods may influence adolescents differently from slightly older young adults. Participants aged 18 to 21 ate more at a buffet and snacked even when not hungry after two weeks on an ultra-processed diet. Because eating without hunger predicts future weight gain, these findings hint at a heightened vulnerability during late adolescence.</p>

<p>The Iowa Gambling Task is a common tool for assessing complex decision making in healthy adults and clinical populations. Previous work has found that performance varies among younger adults, cognitively healthy older adults, and individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a syndrome often precedes dementia. However, performance on the task depends on many factors, including risk preference, sensitivity to gains and losses, and memory for past outcomes, which makes it difficult to understand what causes these differences. Here, we fit a computational cognitive model to the data which allows us to attribute differences in behavior to specific cognitive mechanisms. Experiment 1 (<em>N</em> = 90) compares cognitively healthy older adults to those with MCI, while Experiment 2 (<em>N</em> = 1,645) compares healthy adults of all ages. We find that healthy older adults and those with MCI exhibit different profiles in the task. Healthy aging is associated with a larger learning rates (we attribute to a recency bias), use of a perseverative strategy, and increased sensitivity to gains over losses. Individuals with MCI learned at a slower rate, but showed no qualitative differences in task strategy. The results have implications for understanding why decision making is impaired in the earliest clinical phases of cognitive decline. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)</p>

<p>This study examined how prefrontal overactivation in older adults relates to cognitive performance across systematically varied task demands, testing predictions from major neural compensation theories. Using a visual discrimination paradigm, we parametrically manipulated perceptual load, discrimination precision, and response rule complexity. Participants included younger (<em>N</em> = 36; aged 19–33) and older adults (<em>N</em> = 36; aged 56–82). Task performance was measured using inverse efficiency scores (IES), and functional magnetic resonance imaging assessed brain activation. Older adults demonstrated disproportionately higher IES, especially under the most complex condition, suggesting reduced efficiency with rising demand. fMRI revealed widespread frontoparietal network activation differences, with older adults showing increased recruitment of frontal regions compared with younger adults, especially at higher task demands. Critically, prefrontal overactivation in older adults correlated negatively with performance at the highest demand level, indicating capacity-limited compensation. Additionally, older adults exhibited reduced default mode network suppression and diminished dorsal attention network recruitment, both of which were associated with poorer task performance. These findings support the compensation-related utilization of neural circuits hypothesis, which predicts a transition from adaptive to inefficient recruitment as cognitive demands increase. They also align with broader frameworks such as the posterior–anterior shift in aging and the revised scaffolding theory of aging and cognition, emphasizing the role of task complexity in shaping compensatory patterns. Overall, the adaptiveness of neural overactivation in older adults appears to depend on its relationship to both task demands and behavioral performance.

<p>Gross-motor sequence learning is fundamental for performing daily activities and maintaining independence across the lifespan. This study investigated how age and age simulation affect gross-motor sequence learning, focusing on acquisition, execution performance, explicit recall, and retention performance. We tested 74 participants belonging to five groups: young adults aged 18–27 years without (<em>n</em> = 14) or with (<em>n</em> = 15) an age simulation suit, middle-aged adults aged 30–59 years without (<em>n</em> = 15) or with (<em>n</em> = 15) the suit, and older adults aged 60–86 years without the suit (<em>n</em> = 15). Participants in the suit condition wore the GERonTologic Simulator age suit (Moll, 2021), which simulates age-related physical impairments by reducing sensory perception, flexibility, and strength. Participants performed a fixed 10-element gross-motor sequence task requiring full-body movements over 28 practice trials. Explicit sequence recall was assessed after acquisition, and a retention test was conducted on the following day. All groups demonstrated implicit sequence learning and maintained their performance levels from the end of acquisition to the retention test. However, young adults without the suit exhibited the fastest execution times and highest explicit recall scores. Notably, the suit significantly impaired execution performance and explicit recall in both younger and middle-aged adults, indicating that peripheral impairments can hinder explicit memory formation even when implicit learning remains intact. These findings highlight the significant impact of peripheral sensorimotor declines on gross-motor sequence learning and memory formation across the adult lifespan. The results underscore the importance of considering both cognitive and sensorimotor factors in motor learning research. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)</p>

<p>Despite the increasing importance of digital skills in modern society, the development of information and communication technology (ICT) literacy in adulthood has received limited attention, particularly regarding gender differences over the course of life. Therefore, this study investigated between-person differences and within-person changes in ICT literacy over approximately 9 years in a sample of <em>N</em> = 2,266 adults from Germany. The result showed that younger adults exhibited higher ICT literacy than older adults, but within-person changes did not differ by age. On average, ICT literacy declined over time (Cohen’s <em>d</em> = −0.30). Men consistently demonstrated higher ICT literacy than women (Cohen’s <em>d</em> = 0.39), though gender did not influence changes in ICT literacy. Socioeconomic status did not robustly moderate these effects. These findings suggest that ICT literacy tends to decline across adulthood, while preexisting gender differences, likely rooted in earlier socialization processes, persist without substantial change.

<p>We propose a novel method to analyze time-constrained yes/no questions about a target behavior (e.g., “Did you take sleeping pills during the last 12 months?”). A drawback of these questions is that the relative frequency of answering these questions with “yes” does not allow one to draw definite conclusions about the frequency of the target behavior (i.e., how often sleeping pills were taken) nor about the prevalence of trait carriers (i.e., percentage of people that take sleeping pills). Here we show how this information can be extracted from the results of such questions employing a prevalence curve and a Poisson model. The applicability of the method was evaluated with a survey on everyday behavior, which revealed plausible results and reasonable model fit.

<p>A fundamental part of experimental design is to determine the sample size of a study. However, sparse information about population parameters and effect sizes before data collection renders effective sample size planning challenging. Specifically, sparse information may lead research designs to be based on inaccurate a priori assumptions, causing studies to use resources inefficiently or to produce inconclusive results. Despite its deleterious impact on sample size planning, many prominent methods for experimental design fail to adequately address the challenge of sparse a-priori information. Here we propose a Bayesian Monte Carlo methodology for interim design analyses that allows researchers to analyze and adapt their sampling plans throughout the course of a study. At any point in time, the methodology uses the best available knowledge about parameters to make projections about expected evidence trajectories. Two simulated application examples demonstrate how interim design analyses can be integrated into common designs to inform sampling plans on the fly. The proposed methodology addresses the problem of sample size planning with sparse a-priori information and yields research designs that are efficient, informative, and flexible.

<p>Joint modeling of decisions and neural activation poses the potential to provide significant advances in linking brain and behavior. However, methods of joint modeling have been limited by difficulties in estimation, often due to high dimensionality and simultaneous estimation challenges. In the current article, we propose a method of model estimation that draws on state-of-the-art Bayesian hierarchical modeling techniques and uses factor analysis as a means of dimensionality reduction and inference at the group level. This hierarchical factor approach can adopt any model for the individual and distill the relationships of its parameters across individuals through a factor structure. We demonstrate the significant dimensionality reduction gained by factor analysis and good parameter recovery, and illustrate a variety of factor loading constraints that can be used for different purposes and research questions, as well as three applications of the method to previously analyzed data. We conclude that this method provides a flexible and usable approach with interpretable outcomes that are primarily data-driven, in contrast to the largely hypothesis-driven methods often used in joint modeling. Although we focus on joint modeling methods, this model-based estimation approach could be used for any high dimensional modeling problem. We provide open-source code and accompanying tutorial documentation to make the method accessible to any researchers. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)</p>

<p>Latent moderated structural equation (LMS) is one of the most common techniques for estimating interaction effects involving latent variables (i.e., XWITH command in Mplus). However, empirical applications of LMS often overlook that this estimation technique assumes normally distributed variables and that violations of this assumption may lead to seriously biased parameter estimates. Against this backdrop, we study the robustness of LMS to different shapes and sources of nonnormality and examine whether various statistical tests can help researchers detect such distributional misspecifications. In four simulations, we show that LMS can be severely biased when the latent predictors or the structural disturbances are nonnormal. On the contrary, LMS is unaffected by nonnormality originating from measurement errors. As a result, testing for the multivariate normality of observed indicators of the latent predictors can lead to erroneous conclusions, flagging distributional misspecifications in perfectly unbiased LMS results and failing to reject seriously biased results. To solve this issue, we introduce a novel Hausman-type specification test to assess the distributional assumptions of LMS and demonstrate its performance.

<p>Extensive research has illuminated how perceived social support bolsters functioning and buffers individuals from negative life outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis examined associations between various types (informational, instrumental, emotional, and a combination of types) and sources (parents, peers, teachers/classmates, and others) of perceived social support and five domains of human thriving—mental and physical health, risk-taking behaviors, educational functioning, and work performance—yielding 604 studies with 1,014 effect sizes that met criteria for inclusion. On average, perceived social support had the largest associations with better mental health, <em>r</em><sub>+</sub> = .35, 95% CI [.152, .578]; and better work performance, <em>r</em>+ = .37, 95% CI [.343, .401]. Perceived social support also demonstrated significant associations with other domains of thriving: better physical health, <em>r</em><sub>+</sub> = .24, 95% CI [.220, .617]; lower risk-taking behaviors, <em>r</em><sub>+</sub> = −.17, 95% CI [−.453, −.154]; and better educational functioning, <em>r</em><sub>+</sub> = .21, 95% CI [.047, .454]. Different types and sources of support demonstrated similar associations with mental health and educational functioning, but varying associations with physical health, risk-taking behaviors, and work performance. Associations between support and physical health and risk-taking behaviors were larger in childhood and adolescence than in emerging or later adulthood. Associations between support and educational functioning were larger for non-Western than Western cultural groups, whereas associations between support and work performance were larger in Western than non-Western cultural groups. Analyses provided evidence for both concurrent and prospective associations between perceived social support and five domains of human thriving. Multiple types and sources of perceived social support and thriving must be considered when examining the theoretical and practical implications of perceived social support.

<p>The resurgence of short-form videos (SFVs), popularized by TikTok and Douyin, has transformed social media platforms, with features like Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts fostering their widespread adoption. Although initially geared toward entertainment, SFVs are increasingly used in education, political campaigns, advertising, and consumerism, yet their design, characterized by endless scrolling interfaces, has raised concerns about addiction and negative health implications. Given the recent surge of studies on SFV apps, a comprehensive synthesis is needed to clarify how SFV use relates to different health indicators. This systematic review and meta-analytic investigation comprised data from 98,299 participants across 71 studies. Increased SFV use was associated with poorer cognition (moderate mean effect size, r = −.34), with attention (r = −.38) and inhibitory control (r = −.41) yielding the strongest associations. Similarly, increased SFV use was associated with poorer mental health (weak mean effect size, r = −.21), with stress (r = −.34) and anxiety (r = −.33) showing the strongest associations. These findings were consistent across youth and adult samples and across different SFV platforms. Relatively few studies examined cognitive domains beyond attention and inhibitory control (e.g., memory, reasoning), highlighting critical directions for future research. Interestingly, SFV use was not associated with body image or self-esteem, which may reflect the diverse content and creators featured on these platforms. Further research is therefore needed to clarify how different types of content exposure may shape these associations. Overall, these findings highlight the importance of understanding the broader health implications of SFV use, given its pervasive role in daily life and potential to impact health, behavior, and well-being. By synthesizing current evidence, this study provides a critical foundation for future research to explore understudied health domains (e.g., cognitive health, physical health) and offers insights to guide public discourse and the development of research-informed approaches for promoting more balanced engagement with SFVs.

<p>Although fasting—abstaining from food for several hours to days—is generally considered safe and potentially beneficial for long-term health, concerns persist about its acute effects on cognitive function. Given the importance of sustaining adequate levels of cognitive performance for professional and personal activities, this potential side effect warrants careful examination. Here, we synthesize evidence from experimental studies comparing cognitive performance between fasted and satiated healthy adults using standardized psychological tasks. Analyzing 222 effect sizes across 3,484 participants (median fasting duration = 12 hr), our hierarchical random-effects model revealed no meaningful difference between fasted and satiated participants (<em>g</em> = 0.02, 95% CrI [−0.05, 0.10]), with low between-study heterogeneity (τ = 0.17). Notably, we observed modest reductions in cognitive performance for longer fasting intervals and for younger (vs. older) participants during fasts. Differences across cognitive domains (e.g., attention and inhibitory control) did not reliably explain the heterogeneity in effect sizes. These findings suggest that cognitive performance remains remarkably stable during short-term fasting, supporting the feasibility of fasting practices while highlighting nuanced considerations for implementation in health interventions.

<p>Estimates of intergenerational stability in parenting mechanisms differ within and across studies. This preregistered meta-analysis synthesized the results of longitudinal three-generation studies that measured parenting in two generations of parents with minors. Three-level random-effects analyses included 408 effect sizes from 24 data sets, reported in 51 peer-reviewed articles published until November 2021 (sample size: mean N = 373.32). The results showed that the intergenerational stability in parenting is low on average (r = .12, 95% confidence interval [.09, .16], p </p>

<p>Objective: Cognitive deficits are common among defendants adjudicated incompetent to stand trial, although cognition-focused interventions for this population have not been researched extensively. This quasi-experimental study examined the effectiveness of a program that integrates cognitive training and competency restoration treatment for individuals with cognitive deficits. Methods: Participants in a state hospital were enrolled in the program and assigned to naturally occurring full (<em>n</em> = 53) or limited (<em>n</em> = 29) access conditions. The program was delivered in a group format with semiweekly sessions over the course of 12 weeks. All participants had continuous access to standard competency restoration treatment. Results: Participants in the full access condition demonstrated greater progress in most areas of competency, were more likely to be restored to competence, and had a shorter length of stay than participants in the limited access condition. Increases in all areas of competency progress were associated with restoration of competence. Improved ability to consult with counsel, free recall of information about the adjudicative process, and overall competency progress were associated with shorter length of stay. A reduction in positive, but not negative, symptoms of psychosis was observed across conditions. Although psychosis was negatively associated with restorability and positively associated with length of stay, no significant associations were found between changes in psychosis and these outcomes. Conclusions and Implications for Practice: Findings of the present study provide supportive evidence for integrating cognitive interventions and competency restoration treatment. This approach has promise for improving outcomes for forensically committed individuals with cognitive deficits. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)</p>

<p>Objective: To examine and synthesize the available empirical evidence on the impact of transitional work (TW) on vocational (i.e., rates of competitive employment, time to competitive employment, tenure in competitive employment, income earned) and mental health outcomes. Methods: <em>APA PsycArticles, APA PsycInfo, Psychiatry Online, PubMed,</em> and<em> Social Sciences Citation Index</em> were searched using the key terms: “transitional work,” “compensated work therapy,” “transitional employment,” “noncompetitive employment,” and “diversified placement approach.” A gray literature search was conducted through Google Scholar. Results: 28 studies met inclusion criteria for this review. There is some evidence indicating that TW improves vocational outcomes compared with general vocational support or no services at all, but that TW is less effective at improving vocational outcomes compared with job placement services (e.g., individual placement and support). With regard to mental health, there is some evidence that TW improves substance use outcomes when paired with other substance use-related services (e.g., transitional housing, drug screen protocols). Conclusions and Implications for Practice: TW appears to be an effective approach for improving vocational outcomes compared with no treatment, incentive therapy, workshops, or other general vocational supports, and less effective than job placement services that are designed for individuals with immediate competitive employment goals (e.g., individual placement and support). Recommendations for practice and research are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)</p>

<p>Objective: Cannabis use is common among young adults experiencing psychosis (YA-P) and is associated with negative consequences. Effective cannabis interventions for YA-P have not been identified. The Teen Marijuana Check-Up is a two-session intervention to reduce heavy cannabis use in YA-P who are not seeking cannabis treatment. We used data from interviews and focus groups to optimize the Teen Marijuana Check-Up for YA-P and conducted a demonstration project of this optimized intervention—the Cannabis Check-Up for Psychosis (CCU-P)—to evaluate its acceptability and feasibility. Methods: Findings from qualitative interviews and focus groups were used to design optimizations that were reviewed by a Stakeholder Advisory Board for feedback. The final CCU-P was evaluated in a one-arm pilot study with 12 YA-P who were regular cannabis consumers and engaged in Coordinated Specialty Care. Feasibility (tracking participation) and acceptability (satisfaction ratings, qualitative input) were evaluated. Results: Optimizations included (a) questions to elicit discussion of cannabis’ impact on mental health, psychosis, and treatment; (b) data-based comparisons with infographics to inform about risks for rehospitalization and challenges to recovery associated with cannabis use; and (c) an infographic to detail harm reduction strategies. Overall, 92% completed both CCU-P sessions. Intervention satisfaction was high. All participants reported that they would recommend CCU-P to others in Coordinated Specialty Care. Conclusions and Implications for Practice: CCU-P is a promising intervention, resonant with principles of psychiatric rehabilitation, that uses a nonjudgmental approach, provides science-based information about cannabis–psychosis interactions, and supports participants to make informed choices about use. A larger efficacy trial is warranted. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)</p>
