<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>This paper attempts to revisit the critical realist theory of reflexivity, derived from the pragmatist tradition of symbolic interactionism (SI). It discusses how interactionist sociology, with its emphasis on investigating microstructures through meaning-making, has formed a critical realist theory of reflexivity that serves as a theoretical bridge between the micro and macro levels—specifically, between ‘subjective concerns’ and cultural and structural stability and change. The paper focuses on Margaret Archer’s theory of reflexivity and internal conversation as a critical realist response to social constructionism, connecting it to SI, particularly through Herbert Blumer’s framework. It proposes a holistic approach to studying reflexivity through human concerns. By underscoring the interconnection between SI methodology and the critical realist theory of reflexivity, the paper offers a triangulation of several qualitative methodological strategies to study reflexivity in a more rigorous manner while also providing a connection between the purely interpretive and the positivistic traditions.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>Bipolar disorder is a severe mental disorder affecting millions worldwide, necessitating comprehensive policies and interventions.</p>
<h2>Aims</h2>
<p>To provide assessment of global inequalities in the burden of bipolar disorder and their projected trajectories to 2050.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>Global Burden of Disease 2021 data from 204 countries and territories were analyzed, stratified by age, gender, and Socio-demographic Index (SDI) quintiles. Age-standardized prevalence (ASPR), incidence (ASIR), and years lived with disability (ASR YLD) per 100,000 population were calculated. Inequalities were assessed using the slope index of inequality (SII) and concentration index (CI), and ARIMA models were applied to project trends to 2050.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>From 1990 to 2021, global incidence of BD increased, while prevalence and years lived with disability (YLDs) remained relatively stable (ASPR: 453.7 [95% UI: 381.6–540.8] to 454.6 [95% UI: 377.9–545.8]). Females consistently had higher prevalence than males (474.2 vs. 435.0 per 100,000 in 2021). High-SDI regions reported the highest rates, with Australasia reaching 1110.8 (95% UI: 940.3–1305.9). The SII for incidence rose slightly (10.87–11.38), while the CI declined (0.096–0.012), indicating increasing absolute but decreasing relative inequalities. Projections suggest a rising global burden, with female prevalence remaining higher and incidence rates converging between genders (global ASIR: 33.8 per 100,000).</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Global inequalities in bipolar disorder persist, disproportionately affecting females and high-SDI regions. Projected trends indicate an increasing burden with a narrowing gender gap in incidence, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions and further research on long-term impacts, including the effects of COVID-19.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>Background: Systems Training for Emotional Predictability and Problem Solving (STEPPS) is a well-established treatment for borderline personality disorder (BPD) with good empirical and research support, buttressed by studies conducted in several countries. However, its implementation has not yet been evaluated in Norway; for that reason, the aim of this study was to examine the outcomes associated with STEPPS in a Norwegian routine clinical setting. Methods: An uncontrolled naturalistic study was conducted at three local hospitals using a sample of treatment-seeking patients who completed the 20-week STEPPS programme. T-tests were performed and the effect size results for 168 patients who completed treatment were included in our analysis. Results: The results showed reductions in borderline and depressive symptoms and improvements in daily functioning and quality of life following treatment. Pre-post effect sizes ranged from <i>d =</i> 0.6 to 1.1, indicating medium to large effects. Treatment gains were largely maintained over a 6-month follow-up. Conclusion: The results of this study are comparable with those of previous studies on STEPPS, which were conducted in other countries, indicating that STEPPS may be expected to be successfully implemented in a Norwegian setting as well.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Mar 16th 2026, 05:29</div>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Objectives</h2>
<p>The goal of this study was to characterize a sample of individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) reporting perceived social isolation (PSI) using latent profile analyses.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>Individuals with OUD reporting PSI (<i>n</i> = 125) were recruited for a clinical trial to address PSI. Measures assessing PSI, quantity of social interactions, perceived social support, and opioid use were used to create latent profiles. Additional characteristics including other substance use, substance use consequences, depression, anxiety, belongingness, and burdensomeness were assessed to differentiate the profiles.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>Latent profile analyses revealed 3 profiles, each of which reported high PSI and low quantity of social interactions as well as low perceived social support but varied based on days using opioids. Profile 1 (<i>n</i> = 36; labeled Low Frequency Use) had less frequent opioid use with few social interactions and lower perceived social support. Profile 2 (<i>n</i> = 17; Occasionally Abstinent) used opioids daily, had few social interactions, and had higher perceived social support. Profile 3 (<i>n</i> = 72; Frequent Use) used opioids daily. Low Frequency Use participants engaged in polysubstance use on less days and were more diverse in gender and race.</p>
<h2>Conclusions</h2>
<p>This study identified three classes of individuals with OUD and elevated PSI that were differentiated primarily by frequency of opioid use, while all classes reported high loneliness and low social support. Although exploratory, outcome analyses suggested that the classes were clinically meaningful, with differences in polysubstance use and drug consequences, and warrant replication in larger samples.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#494949;text-align:justify;font-size:13px;">
<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>Botswana has achieved remarkable progress in HIV epidemic control, becoming the first country to receive WHO’s Gold Tier Certification for Eliminating mother-to-child transmission (EMTCT) and surpassing the 95–95–95 targets ahead of the 2030 deadline. This study aimed to explore the key health system, policy, and community factors that contributed to Botswana’s progression from HIV epidemic control to achieving WHO certification.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>A qualitative, descriptive analysis was conducted through a comprehensive review of national and international reports, peer-reviewed literature, and program evaluations. This study examined Botswana’s HIV policy evolution, health system strengthening initiatives, community involvement strategies, laboratory and diagnostic capacity, and challenges faced along the way to identify enabling factors and lessons learned.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>Early adoption of universal ART policies, highly effective prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) programs, extensive community engagement, continuous health system investments, and international support, particularly from President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), have played key roles in expanding treatment coverage, enhancing laboratory infrastructure, and building human resource capacity. Despite challenges such as healthcare worker shortages and stigma, Botswana’s integrated and evidence-based approach has led to significant reductions in HIV incidence and mortality, with over 95% of People Living with HIV (PLWH) knowing their status, 95% being on treatment, and 95% being virally suppressed.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Botswana’s strategic, integrated, and evidence-based approach to HIV epidemic control offers a replicable model for countries striving to meet the 95–95–95 targets, highlighting the importance of political commitment, sustained funding, integrated service delivery, community participation, and international partnerships in achieving and maintaining HIV elimination milestones.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Objective</h2>
<p>To examine whether same-gender relationship (SGR) status predicts intergenerational estrangement, operationalized as emotional closeness as well as physical contact to parents, in Germany.</p>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>The relationship to the family of origin can be a source of support or stress. It is important to understand how this relationship differs depending on whether a person is in an SGR. This can help identify problematic patterns and develop interventions tailored to the needs of this population.</p>
<h2>Method</h2>
<p>Analyses were based on 11 annual waves of the nationally representative German Family Panel (“pairfam”). A total of <i>N</i> = 12,926 participants (<i>N</i> = 122,036 observations) were included, with <i>n</i> = 237 participants reporting at least one SGR in their lifetime (<i>n</i> = 174 at the time of the interviews). Hypotheses regarding between and within person effects were tested using multilevel multivariate models.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>Participants who reported being in an SGR at least once in their lifetime or in proportionally more waves were less close to their fathers. The closeness to mothers was not related to participants’ SGR status.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Intergenerational relationships for people in SGRs are similar to those of the general German population. The differences that do exist mainly relate to a less close father-child relationship whereas relationships of mothers with their children appear to be more robust.</p>

<p><h2>Abstract</h2>
<p>This article investigates the hypothesis that music can be a powerful catalyst for social transformation within specific territorial and social contexts. To explore this, a scoping review was conducted, aiming to identify the participants, networks and contexts described in the scientific literature on community music and to critically examine the criteria used over the last 15 years to analyse processes of social transformation. The review includes original articles from specialist journals published between 1 January 2008 and 15 February 2023, in both English and Spanish. Following the selection process using defined search terms across four databases, 270 articles were selected for analysis. The NVivo software was used to facilitate thematic coding and the construction of a node tree based on key analytical categories. Notably, there has been a surge in published literature over the last 5 years, reflecting growing academic interest in community music as a field. A significant finding of this review is that most studies concentrate on the personal benefits of participating in community music projects. However, many of these studies lack comprehensive analyses and tend to overlook the collective dynamics and broader societal dimensions of such initiatives.</p>
<h2>Context and implications</h2>
<p><b>Rationale for this study:</b> Music can serve as a powerful catalyst for social transformation, particularly within specific territorial and socio-cultural contexts. In recent years, the field of community music has emerged as a distinct discipline that explores how collective musical practices contribute to such transformations. As a discipline in development, community music research is continuously evolving, shaped by ongoing debates over its epistemological foundations, theoretical frameworks and diverse practical applications.</p>
<p><b>Why the new findings matter:</b> This review offers an updated and critical synthesis of the literature on community music and its role in social transformation. By identifying the main participants, networks and contextual factors described in the last 15 years of research, it provides a clearer picture of how community music initiatives are understood and evaluated. In doing so, it highlights gaps and inconsistencies in the criteria used to assess their social impact.</p>
<p><b>Implications for researchers, music educators and policy-makers:</b> The findings of this review reveal that most existing studies focus on the personal benefits derived from participation in community music projects. However, these accounts often lack in-depth analyses of broader social dynamics, such as the collective processes, contextual variables and long-term sustainability of the initiatives. There is an urgent need for more robust and multidimensional assessment frameworks that go beyond individual outcomes to encompass group interactions and community-level impacts. Moreover, future research should examine the durability of social ties created through these projects and the mechanisms by which such connections are maintained or fade over time. Addressing these questions is essential for deepening our understanding of community music’s transformative potential and for informing more effective practice and policy.</p>

<p><h2>Abstract</h2>
<p>Refugees of war are at high risk of exposure to war-related potentially traumatic events (PTEs) and the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The stress sensitization hypothesis posits that adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) can sensitize individuals to the stress of PTEs in adulthood. This study examined how ACEs might sensitize refugees to war exposure in a sample of 3,486 Ukrainian refugees. We identified four latent classes of ACEs: low exposure (57.4%), household dysfunction (21.5%), maltreatment (16.7%), and high exposure (4.4%). These classes were used in a logistic regression model to test for associations with PTSD, and an ACE Class x War Exposure interaction term was used to test for stress sensitization. Female gender, odds ratio (<i>OR</i>) = 1.99, 95% confidence interval (CI) [1.58, 2.49]; war exposure, <i>OR</i> = 1.55, 95% CI [1.30, 1.83]; and all ACE classes, <i>OR</i>s = 1.14–2.84, were significantly associated with PTSD, whereas we found no effects of stress sensitization. The lack of stress sensitization effects in our analysis might have been caused by uniformly high stress levels in this refugee sample, as well as the broadly defined war exposure measure we used. Future research should aim to assess whether certain types or intensities of exposure better reveal sensitization effects.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Mar 16th 2026, 01:28</div>
<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#494949;text-align:justify;font-size:13px;">
<p><h2>Abstract</h2>
<h2>Aims</h2>
<p>Industry arguments against public health policies that reduce the consumption of unhealthy commodities often include the assertion that the policy will harm the economy by reducing production and costing jobs. However, this argument does not consider that consumers may spend money previously used for unhealthy commodity consumption on other products, benefiting other sectors and potentially offsetting those negative economic consequences. In this study we aimed to estimate the macroeconomic impacts of reducing consumption of alcohol, tobacco, confectionary and gambling, accounting for reallocation of spending from these commodities to alternatives.</p>
<h2>Method</h2>
<p>We developed the open-source Commercial Determinants of Health Input–Output (CDOHIO) model version 1.1.0. CDOHIO models inter-sectoral linkages in the United Kingdom (UK) economy using published input–output tables to estimate the macroeconomic outcomes of changes in the total national consumer expenditure on selected unhealthy commodities and the reallocation of this expenditure to other consumption. We modelled a 10% decrease in total consumer expenditure on (1) alcohol, (2) tobacco, (3) confectionary and (4) gambling, assuming that the reduced expenditure was reallocated entirely to other products. The comparator in each case was no change in expenditure. We analysed six economic outcomes: (i) output (the total value of production in the economy), (ii) tax receipts from employees, (iii) tax receipts from employers, (iv) full-time equivalent employment, (v) total net earnings to individuals, and (vi) Gross Value Added (GVA), which is the primary outcome measure used as a proxy for national Gross Domestic Product.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>For tobacco, confectionary and gambling, reduced spending was estimated to yield positive effects across all six measures. The total effect of a 10% reduction in confectionary spending was an increase in GVA of £0.389 billion (0.02%), for reduced spending on tobacco, +£1.859 billion GVA (+0.09%) and for gambling +£1.250 billion GVA (+0.06%). For alcohol, a 10% reduction in spending led to a small negative effect on GVA (−£0.134 billion, −0.01%), which is the net effect of positive effects of reduced spending on off-trade alcohol (+£2.543 billion) and negative effects of reduced spending on on-trade alcohol (−£2.677 billion).</p>
<h2>Conclusions</h2>
<p>The potential negative macroeconomic impacts of reducing spending on tobacco, confectionary and gambling in the United Kingdom could be more than mitigated when consumers reallocate money spent on these products to other consumption. This is also the case for off-trade alcohol consumption, but not for on-trade alcohol consumption.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>This paper reports on the development and validation of the 15-item Parental Attitudes to Digital Technology Scale (PADTS), a brief, psychometrically validated measure assessing parents’ beliefs confidence, and concerns about their very young children’s use of digital technologies.</p>
<h2>Method</h2>
<p>Developed as part of the UK-wide Toddlers, Tech and Talk (TTT) study, PADTS addresses a gap in existing research by focusing on children from birth to 3 years, a stage often overlooked in digital parenting literature. Co-developed with parents and early years experts, the scale was tested with a nationally balanced UK sample (<i>N</i> = 934).</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses supported a four-factor structure: perceived risks, perceived learning benefits, parental confidence and technology-related anxiety. The PADTS showed strong model fit and measurement invariance across parent gender, ethnicity and region, with some variation by child age. Correlational analyses indicated that benefits, perceptions and confidence were associated with supportive digital parenting, while anxiety was more weakly linked.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>PADTS shows potential as a practical tool for researchers, practitioners and policy-makers and may support a more nuanced understanding of how parental attitudes shape early digital experiences.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>Natural disasters have a prominent effect on a household’s well-being. Losing income, assets, and livestock puts households at risk of poverty. Most post-disaster poverty assessments rely on monetary indicators, overlooking persistent non-monetary losses. Using longitudinal data from the Survey of the Tsunami Aftermath and Recovery (STAR) following the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, we track multidimensional poverty over multiple waves and examine its determinants. We construct the Multidimesional Poverty Index (MPI) using the Alkire-Foster method and estimate year-specific logit models to identify risk factors. The study shows a positive decline in multidimensional poverty, but recovery is uneven. The deprivations related to illness, schooling, sanitaion, and reliance on unclean cooking fuel remain the most persistent. Households headed by women, lower-educated heads, larger households, those in vulnerable locations, and those with damaged dwellings are consistently more likely to be multidimensionally poor; government assistance is associated with reductions in MPI, often with a short lag. Therefore, the results show that non-monetary poverty can persist even as monetary indicators improve, implying that income-based monitoring understates lingering welfare losses. Policy should therefore pair income support with targeted investments in education continuity, primary health care, and basic services especially in vulnerable areas to accelerate multidimensional recovery.</p>
<h2>摘要</h2>
<p>自然灾害对家庭福祉有着显著影响。收入、资产和牲畜的损失使家庭面临贫困风险。大多数灾后贫困评估依赖于货币指标, 忽略了持续存在的非货币损失。本文利用2004年印度洋海啸后海啸灾后重建调查(STAR)的纵向数据, 追踪了多维贫困在多个阶段的变化, 并分析了其决定因素。我们采用Alkire-Foster方法构建了多维贫困指数(MPI), 并估计了特定年份的logit模型以识别风险因素。研究表明, 多维贫困有所下降, 但恢复并不均衡。与疾病、教育、卫生和“依赖不清洁烹饪燃料”相关的匮乏仍然是最持久的。女性户主、受教育程度较低的户主、家庭规模较大的家庭、居住在易受灾地区、以及房屋受损的家庭更容易陷入多维贫困。政府援助与多维贫困指数(MPI)的下降相关, 且通常存在较短的滞后效应。因此, 研究结果表明, 即使货币指标有所改善, 非货币贫困仍可能持续存在, 这意味着基于收入的监测低估了持续存在的福利损失。因此, 政策应将收入支持与针对教育连续性、初级卫生保健和基本服务的定向投资相结合, 尤其是在脆弱地区, 以加速多维复苏。</p>
<h2>RESUMEN</h2>
<p>Los desastres naturales tienen un efecto destacado en el bienestar de un hogar. La pérdida de ingresos, activos y ganado pone a los hogares en riesgo de pobreza. La mayoría de las evaluaciones de pobreza posteriores a desastres se basan en indicadores monetarios, pasando por alto las pérdidas no monetarias persistentes. Utilizando datos longitudinales de la Encuesta sobre las secuelas y la recuperación del tsunami (STAR) tras el tsunami del océano Índico de 2004, rastreamos la pobreza multidimensional a lo largo de múltiples olas y examinamos sus determinantes. Construimos el Índice de pobreza multidimensional (IPM) utilizando el método de Alkire-Foster y estimamos modelos logit específicos del año para identificar los factores de riesgo. El estudio muestra una disminución positiva de la pobreza multidimensional, pero la recuperación es desigual. Las privaciones relacionadas con la enfermedad, la escolarización, el saneamiento y la dependencia de combustible no limpio para cocinar siguen siendo las más persistentes. Los hogares encabezados por mujeres, los jefes con menor educación, los hogares más numerosos, los que se encuentran en lugares vulnerables y los que tienen viviendas dañadas tienen sistemáticamente más probabilidades de ser pobres multidimensionalmente; La asistencia gubernamental se asocia con reducciones del IPM, a menudo con un breve retraso. Por lo tanto, los resultados muestran que la pobreza no monetaria puede persistir incluso cuando los indicadores monetarios mejoran, lo que implica que el monitoreo basado en los ingresos subestima las pérdidas persistentes de bienestar. Por lo tanto, las políticas deberían combinar el apoyo a los ingresos con inversiones específicas en la continuidad de la educación, la atención primaria de salud y los servicios básicos, especialmente en zonas vulnerables, para acelerar la recuperación multidimensional.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Objective</h2>
<p>This study contributes to the emerging literature on cohabitation and marital outcomes in urban China by examining the associations between premarital cohabitation and six types of intimate partner violence (IPV).</p>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>Premarital cohabitation has been on the rise, yet its evolving meanings and long-term implications for post-marital experiences remain underexplored. IPV, as a crucial indicator of marital dysfunction, provides an important lens through which to evaluate the cohabitation effect.</p>
<h2>Method</h2>
<p>Drawing on retrospective data from a representative sample of married women in Beijing, China, collected in 2020, we examine the relationship between premarital cohabitation and IPV. We use the Karlson-Holm-Breen (KHB) decomposition to quantify the relative contributions of two explanatory pathways: the <i>selection perspective</i>, which attributes IPV risks to the distinctive characteristics of cohabiters, and the <i>experience perspective</i>, which emphasizes the functional nature of cohabitation as a trial marriage.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>Premarital cohabitation is positively associated with the four most severe types of IPV, and the selection perspective accounts for the majority of this association. However, this association has diminished among women born after 1980, reflecting broader demographic and normative shifts during China’s reform era.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>While premarital cohabitation in urban China has increasingly been accepted as a transitional stage toward marriage, diluting its negative associations with post-marital outcomes, it remains linked to individuals with adverse childhood experiences and complex premarital relationships. By revealing the mechanisms underlying the cohabitation effect, this study sheds light on the evolving role of cohabitation in shaping marital dynamics and its intersection with IPV.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Mar 15th 2026, 22:27</div>
<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#494949;text-align:justify;font-size:13px;">
<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>Pediatric mental health crises are increasing in both frequency and severity, with restrictive measures such as restraint and seclusion (R/S) frequently used during episodes of acute behavioral escalation. Despite the known risks, there is limited evidence on pediatric-specific interventions, particularly those led or implemented by nurses, to reduce R/S.</p>
<h2>Objectives</h2>
<p>This scoping review aimed to map the breadth and nature of evidence on nurse-led or nurse-implemented educational and practice interventions designed to reduce the use of restrictive measures in pediatric mental health settings among children 12 years or younger.</p>
<h2>Data Sources</h2>
<p>Guided by JBI methodology, Arksey and O’Malley’s scoping review framework, and PRISMA-ScR reporting guidelines, comprehensive searches were conducted across MEDLINE, CINAHL, and PsycINFO. Studies published in English between 2014 and 2025 were screened. Eligible studies focused on nurses caring for children aged ≤ 12 years in inpatient, residential, or emergency psychiatric settings and reported on interventions aimed at reducing restrictive measures.</p>
<h2>Conclusions</h2>
<p>Nine U.S.-based studies met inclusion criteria, primarily quality improvement and quasi-experimental in design. Interventions included trauma-informed care, simulation-based training, early warning assessment tools, and collaborative problem-solving approaches. Multimodal strategies emphasizing workforce development and cultural transformation were most effective. Notably, few interventions were nurse-initiated or included nursing perspectives during development.</p>
<h2>Implications for Practice</h2>
<p>Nurses play a critical role in preventing behavioral escalation and R/S use. Interventions tailored to the nursing role, supported by leadership, and embedded into organizational policy are essential. Future research should prioritize nurse-designed, pediatric-specific, and culturally responsive strategies to enhance safety and therapeutic care.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>Suicide is a leading cause of death among young males in Australia. Tomorrow Man’s “Breaking the Man Code” workshops aim to challenge potentially harmful masculine norms and promote positive attitudes towards help-seeking among adolescent boys in schools.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>Our stratified cluster randomized trial was undertaken with 1225 boys (mean (SD) age = 15.04 (0.74) years) across 24 Australian secondary schools: 13 randomized to intervention, 11 to waitlist control. Primary outcome was mean change in intentions to seek help for personal or emotional problems 4 to 8 weeks from baseline. Secondary outcomes included conformity to masculine norms, depression risk, perceived social support, and quality of life. Purpose-designed closed-ended questions captured other behavioral and attitudinal changes. The trial was prospectively registered with ANZCTR.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>Estimated mean change in scores from baseline between the two groups on the primary outcome was −0.07 (95% confidence interval: −1.75, 1.62; <i>p</i> = 0.937). Purpose-designed questions revealed increased help-offering, connection with friends, and some potential barriers to change.</p>
<h2>Conclusions</h2>
<p>Further research is needed to understand the impacts of school-based interventions for boys.</p>
<h2>Trial Registration</h2>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>Unlike adults, young children think that many weird and unlikely events are impossible. Existing theories have argued that this developmental shift is driven primarily by age-related changes in knowledge as well as an increasing ability to reflect on one’s modal intuitions. However, this intuition + reflection model fails to explain <i>when</i> and <i>why</i> children and adults engage in reflection. In this article, we review research on the development of modal intuitions, and we present a framework for thinking about development that connects intuition and reflection by positing that <i>confidence</i> in one’s intuitions plays a key role in explaining age-related and individual differences in children’s judgments of possibility.</p>
