While Hope theory posits that people link their present condition to create an imagined future, jail climate and inmates’ wellbeing are undeniable present factors that could predict their imagined future. Hence, the researchers hypothesized that jail climate predicts incarcerated person’s wellbeing, and wellbeing predicts inmates’ hope. Using Structural Equation Modelling, a model of hope from jail climate, physical wellbeing, and psychological wellbeing has been tested. The researchers administered jail climate, wellbeing, and hope scales to 225 female inmates. The results showed that relationships among inmates, safety and order, and meaningful activities as jail climates predicted physical and psychological wellbeing, and hope. Moreover, jail climate exclusively has predicted physical wellbeing while meaningful activities exclusively predict hope. Implications for the results were discussed.

Psychological capital (PsyCap) has been the subject of more publications lately, mostly in the realm of organizational psychology rather than educational psychology. Existing literature has also revealed a gap in the exploration of connections between psychological capital themes and factors related to the health and education of Indian students studying management. This study investigates if PsyCap among management students is a predictor of psychological well-being indirectly through academic engagement. For the study, 912 management students (male = 607, female = 305) completed the survey through the PsyCap Questionnaire (12 Item Scale), the Students' Psychological Well-Being Questionnaire (PPWB) (18 Items), and the Modified Utrecht Engagement Scale (9 Items). The findings showed a positive correlation between psychological well-being and management students' academic engagement on PsyCap. Furthermore, students' academic engagement mediated PsyCap's impact on psychological well-being. In particular, the multiple mediation model showed that dedication, vigor, and absorption were primarily responsible for PsyCap's indirect impacts on psychological well-being. Study findings may assist educators in creating and preserving a positive learning environment in their classrooms and institutions. • A research gap exists in studying links between psychological capital and health-education factors among Indian management students. • Positive correlation between psychological well-being and management students' academic engagement on PsyCap. • PsyCap’ s impact on psychological well-being was mediated by students' academic engagement. • Findings of this study may assist educators in creating and preserving a positive learning environment in their classrooms and institutions.

The association between ethical AI use and well-being among young adults in the UAE: a structural equation modeling approach

Although adolescence is theorized to be a critical period for identity development, little is known about how gender identity, specifically gender centrality and private regard, develops among adolescents. The current study assessed trajectories of gender centrality and private regard across five waves of data from Grade 9 through Grade 10 among cisgender adolescents from the United States (Mage = 14.1 years; N = 374; SD = 0.41, 139 boys and 235 girls). Additionally, the study explored how gender centrality, private regard, and their development were related to later psychological and social well-being. Initial levels of gender centrality and private regard did not differ by gender. However, boys showed declines in their levels of gender centrality and private regard, whereas girls remained stable. For girls, higher initial levels of gender centrality and private regard were associated with greater psychological and social well-being. Additionally, increases in positive regard were associated with increased psychological well-being one year later. Boys' gender identity was unrelated to their well-being. Findings underscore the importance of assessing gender identity as a developmental construct among middle adolescents and the implications that gender identity can have on the well-being of adolescents.

This study presents the development of a supplementary questionnaire assessing lifestyle behaviors, psychological well-being, and contextual factors, designed to complement the World Mental Health International College Student (WMH-ICS) survey, within the Italian Health Mode On project. A preliminary questionnaire, based on a literature review and composed of brief standardized measures across 15 sections, was drafted. Its validation was conducted through a two-round electronic Delphi process involving 17 experts from Italian universities and research institutes. In the first round, the experts rated the relevance of each section and domain and suggested item revisions or additions. Feedback was synthesized and presented in the second round, during which the experts re-rated their agreement with all proposed modifications. All sections proposed in the preliminary version were retained. Experts provided 115 item-modification proposals and 10 suggestions for new sections or domains; 35 modifications (30.4%) and 3 additions (30%) were accepted. The final instrument comprises 18 sections and 64 items covering anthropometry, socio-economic status, housing, commuting, physical activity, diet, sleep, nicotine product use, social media, gaming, gambling, loneliness, hopelessness, life satisfaction, academic stress, student services, discrimination, and general well-being. A rapid e-Delphi process produced a concise, expert-validated supplement expanding the WMH-ICS survey's capacity to inform health promotion and prevention interventions.

Scholars are increasingly focused on women's positive, embodied "breasted experienced", which includes breast appreciation. This positive body image facet is assessed using the 9-item Breast Appreciation Scale (BrAS; Swami et al., 2022), but assessments of its psychometric properties in diverse cultural communities are limited. Here, we report on the translation and validation of a French translation of the BrAS in French-Canadian women. A sample of 365 women from Quebec, Canada, completed the French BrAS alongside additional measures. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis in two split-half subsamples identified a stable unidimensional model of the BrAS, with six of the nine original items retained. This BrAS model was fully invariant across both split-half subsamples and showed no evidence of differential item functioning in relation to participant age. Latent breast appreciation also evidenced strong composite reliability, as well as adequate convergent and concurrent validity. Specifically, greater breast appreciation was associated with higher overall body appreciation, lower breast size dissatisfaction, better psychological well-being and lower distress, and lower disordered eating patterns. While the present results provide initial psychometric support for the BrAS in French-Canadian women, more work can be done to confirm and extend our findings.

COVID-19 has been associated with cognitive sequelae, particularly in executive functions (EFs). However, the relationship between subjective executive difficulties, objective cognitive performance, and psychological factors remains unclear. 174 COVID-19 patients (ICU-, WARD-, or home-treated) and 51 non-COVID controls were assessed at 3 and 6months post-infection. Executive function was measured with the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Adults (BRIEF-A) self- and informant-report versions. Objective cognition was assessed across attention, memory, and executive domains. Psychological symptoms (depression [PHQ-9], anxiety [GAD-7], PTSD symptoms [IES-6]) and fatigue (MFI-20) were also evaluated. Group differences, self-informant agreement, and associations between measures were analyzed using linear mixed models, correlations, and regression analyses. Self-reported EF difficulties in COVID-19 patients were generally within the normal range and were not associated with objective cognition. In contrast, controls showed some correspondence between subjective and objective cognition. Self-reported EFs in patients were strongly associated with psychological symptoms and fatigue, with similar but weaker patterns in informant reports. In regression models, depressive symptoms emerged as a significant predictor of higher self-reported EF difficulties in COVID-19 patients. Self-informant agreement was highest in ICU-treated patients. Self-reported executive functioning difficulties after COVID-19 were more strongly associated with psychological factors than with objective cognitive deficits. These findings highlight the importance of considering psychological well-being when evaluating executive functioning after COVID-19.
