Sandstrom, Andrea; Daoust, Andrew R.; Russell, Evan; Koren, Gideon; Hayden, Elizabeth P. – European Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2021
Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis activity is related to negative mental health outcomes, including depression. Most developmental research uses salivary cortisol to index HPA activity; however, hair cortisol concentrations (HCCs) reflect cortisol production over extended periods of time. While HCCs have been linked to adult depression,…

Benassi, Erika; Camia, Michela; Giovagnoli, Sara; Scorza, Maristella – European Journal of Special Needs Education, 2022
A growing body of literature indicates that children with Specific Learning Disorder (SpLD) are at risk of internalising and externalising problems. Instead, less is known about the factors that may influence this symptomatology. For instance, a few studies investigated the extent to which impaired school well-being could predict internalising and…

To date, research on this intervention model has consistently shown that students who attend…
