Addressing teacher occupational health in challenging times: The role of a posi...

Teacher occupational health is a critical issue worldwide that COVID-19 has worsened. While previous research has highlighted the impact of chronic work-related stress and limited personal resources on burnout, much of this research relies on cross-sectional data that do not capture how these effects develop over time. Additionally, the role of positive organizational factors remains underexplored. Our study ex...

Bridging the gap in teacher SEL training: Designing and piloting an online SEL ...

This study depicts the development of an online SEL intervention for Portuguese elementary-school teachers (A+), through an exploratory sequential design. First, to ensure the relevance and applicability of the A+ , ten focus group were conducted with 66 elementary-school teachers (90.9 % female, Mage=45.56 years, SDage=5.57). Results indicated strong interest and perceived relevance among teachers regarding SE...

Effects of a social-emotional learning intervention on social-emotional compete...

This study investigated whether a social–emotional learning program, implemented over a one-year period, could lead to gains in social–emotional competencies and to a reduction in internalizing and externalizing problems in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, the program analyzed how students (boys vs. girls) with varying levels of social–emotional competencies and externalizing and internalizing...

Blindness influences emotional authenticity perception in voices: Behavioral an...

The ability to distinguish spontaneous from volitional emotional expressions is an important social skill. How do blind individuals perceive emotional authenticity? Unlike sighted individuals, they cannot rely on facial and body language cues, relying instead on vocal cues alone. Here, we combined behavioral and ERP measures to investigate authenticity perception in laughter and crying in individuals with early...

Rethinking Leahy’s Emotional Schema Scale (LESS): Results from the Portuguese A...

This study aims to contribute to the study of emotional schemas, through the adaptation of the Leahy Emotional Schema Scale (LESS) to Portuguese. The LESS is a 50 item self-report with 14 theoretical dimensions, representing concepts, evaluations, attributions of emotions, and strategies of emotion regulation (Leahy in Cognit Behav Pract 9(3):177–190, 2002. https://doi.org/10.1016/S1077-7229(02)80048- 7).

The time course of emotional authenticity detection in nonverbal vocalizations

Previous research has documented perceptual and brain differences between spontaneous and volitional emotional vocalizations. However, the time course of emotional authenticity processing remains unclear. We used event-related potentials (ERPs) to address this question, and we focused on the processing of laughter and crying. We additionally tested whether the neural encoding of authenticity is influenced by at...

Development and Psychometric Characteristics of an Instrument to Assess Parenta...

A parental child-centered feeding approach is likely to keep children’s biological mechanisms activated while eating, protecting them in an obesogenic context. However, few feeding practice measures assess parents’ behaviors to guide and prompt children to identify and respond appropriately to their signs of hunger and satiety. We aimed to develop and study the reliability, validity, and measurement invariance ...

Illness perceptions of COVID-19 in Europe: Predictors, impacts and temporal evo...

Objective: Illness perceptions (IP) are important predictors of emotional and behavioral responses in many diseases. The current study aims to investigate the COVID-19-related IP throughout Europe. The specific goals are to understand the temporal development, identify predictors (within demographics and contact with COVID-19) and examine the impacts of IP on perceived stress and preventive behaviors. Methods: ...
