We examine the impact of a randomized therapy intervention on Nepali adolescents at risk of school dropout. Our study is the largest of its kind (N = 1,707) and is novel in that participation does not require a preexisting diagnosis. Ninety percent of those offered therapy participated, with younger adolescents demonstrating higher compliance.…

Namik Kemal Haspolat; Murat Agirkan; Mustafa Eskisu – Psychology in the Schools, 2024
Psychological problems are prevalent among adolescents, and previous studies have robustly demonstrated that individual and family factors play a role in the formation and maintenance of these problems. On the other hand, not all adolescents show the same characteristics in terms of these factors and can be categorized into different groups.…

Thiago F. A. França; Sabine Pompeia – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2025

However, adolescents -- much like adults -- may also engage in risky behaviors because of conscious and deliberate (even if objectively poor) decisions. It is not easy…

Liu, Siyi; Lu, Aitao – Psychology in the Schools, 2023
Research has documented a bidirectional relationship between forgiveness and self-control, influencing adolescent satisfaction with life.

During childhood, the ability to limit problem behaviors (i.e., externalizing) and the capacity for cognitive regulation (i.e., executive function) are often understood to develop in tandem, and together constitute two major components of self-regulation research. The current study examines bi-directional relations between behavioral problems and…
