The year of 2007 was marked by one of the most severe global financial crises, which led to an increase of psychopathological symptoms that negatively affected life satisfaction. This research analyzed how financial threat was associated with life satisfaction and how coping, as a mediating variable, influenced this relationship. The theoretical model was tested through a sample of 901 Portuguese individuals, averaging 37 years old (SD=12.86). A structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to obtain the results, by using a multiple-group analysis. Overall, the results showed that financial threat is negatively associated with life satisfaction and that proactive coping strategies have a positive association with life satisfaction.The results obtained from coping as a mediating variable were not significant (considering the total sample). However, when we performed a multiple-group analysis, in the group of individuals with lower levels of financial threat, the mediation effect was statistically significant, showing an almost total attenuation of the crisis’s negative effects on life satisfaction. Thusly, we can infer that the mediating role of coping depends on the level of perceived financial threat. Since periods of financial threat have a negative impact on individuals’ psychological health, coping strategies can mitigate this relationship by decreasing the aforementioned negative impact.

Words are widely used as stimuli in cognitive and linguistic research. As words may vary on various domains (e.g., lexicosemantic and affective), which can influence performance in many ways, it is essential to select them carefully. However, databases of European Portuguese words are still relatively scarce, and their presentation is spread in various sources. The aims of this work were: (1) to provide a review of the databases containing information on lexicosemantic, affective, and free association norming data for European Portuguese words published since the year 2000; (2) to summarize the definitions of the different variables; and (3) to combine in a single database the norming data available at this point. We found 25 databases with 18 containing lexicosemantic and affective norming data and seven containing word free association norms. These databases include words from various categories (e.g., nouns and adjectives), characterized on different variables (e.g., familiarity, imagery, valence, age of acquisition and animacy). This review provides a useful tool for researchers looking for Portuguese word-related resources. A thorough review of the databases, including some details about each one, is presented. The combined database is shared with the scientific community via the Open Science Framework: https://osf.io/9ta3y/.

Purpose:Research on the interplay between eating pathology, difficulties in emotion regulation and negative urgency is needed to better inform and tailor the current intervention approaches for patients with eating disorders and non-suicidal self-injury. The current study aimed to investigate the phenotypic characterization of patients with eating disorders and history of lifetime non-suicidal self-injury when considering eating pathology, emotion dysregulation and negative urgency. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study evaluating 73 patients with eating disorders and history of lifetime non-suicidal self-injury (14-55 years; 68 Female). A cluster analysis (K-means) was performed using eating pathology, difficulties in emotion regulation and negative urgency. Differences between clusters were explored on sociodemographic/psychological variables, distribution of the DSM-5 eating disorder diagnostics and past/current non-suicidal self-injury engagement Results: Three clusters were identified. Cluster 1 (n = 29) (moderate severity) was characterized by high levels of eating pathology, but moderate emotion dysregulation and negative urgency. Cluster 2 (n = 29) (high severity) was characterized by the highest scores in eating pathology, emotion dysregulation and negative urgency. Within this cluster there was the highest prevalence of patients with current non-suicidal self-injury. Cluster 3 (n = 15) (low severity) was characterized by the lowest levels of eating pathology, emotion dysregulation and negative urgency and included more patients with past non-suicidal self-injury. Conclusion: The three distinctive profiles highlights the importance of emotion dysregulation and negative urgency as a personalized treatment target for eating disorders patients with current NSSI. Level III: Evidence obtained from well-designed cohort or case-control analytic studies

Words are frequently used, for example, as stimuli in cognitive and linguistic research. Consideringthat there are various psycholinguistic variables known to influence word processing (e.g., frequency,concreteness), it is important to control for those variables. Recently, it has been reported that animacy(the characteristic of being a living/animate or a non-living/inanimate entity) also affects variouscognitive and linguistic processes. In fact, animacy has been found to be one of the best predictors offree recall. However, animacy is still an uncontrolled variable in most studies and information aboutthis variable is still, for the most part, absent. In this study, we provide animacy norms for a set of224 European Portuguese concrete words. Such data should provide Portuguese researchers a helpfultool to start considering this dimension in a systematic way in their research.

A stroke is a life-threatening event which has physical, emotional and cognitive consequences. Thisstudy aimed to identify differences between participants who suffered a stroke and healthy controls,concerning cognitive performance, depressive symptoms, social support and quality of life; to examinethe associations between these variables among participants who suffered a stroke; and to identify thevariables that best classify patients and controls. The sample included 30 patients who suffered astroke and 30 healthy participants. Both groups presented similar sociodemographic characteristics.All participants were assessed with The Institute of Cognitive Neurology Frontal Screening, theMontreal Cognitive Assessment, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, the Instrumental-Expressive Social-Support Scale, and the Short Form Health Survey-36. Post-stroke patients had lowercognitive performance, lower social support, lower quality of life and higher depressive symptomsthan the control group. Social support was positively related to quality of life and negatively relatedto depressive symptoms in the clinical group. Cognitive deficits and depressive symptoms correctlyclassified belonging to the clinical group in 85% of cases, and significantly predicted the stroke. Thisstudy underlines the importance of implementing psychological interventions addressing depressivesymptoms and cognitive rehabilitation for post-stroke patients.

More and more social science studies are now acquiring data through the internet, reaching participantsonline. Some participants start out engaged and motivated to participate, but progressively slide into“rushing behaviors”. We inquired experts in survey responding about when, in online studies, theywould feel a desire for rushing (defined as speeding with no concerns about the quality of responses).This qualitative approach uncovered Repetition, Survey length and No interest in topic as the threemain features that would motivate these participants to rush in surveys. Subsequent inquiry of thesame participants indicated that repetition concerns the type of questions made (more than stimuli ortask), the execution of the same task more than 5-6 times, or for more than 6 minutes. Survey lengthconcerns a preference for shorter surveys, as well as the subjective experience in which length exceedspreviously set expectations (i.e., longer than announced), contributing to rushing by effectivelylowering the hourly pay rate as the survey increases in length. Interest in topic was reported to beconsistently low, despite not being the main reason to quit the survey. However, a change in expectedlevel of interest in the middle of the survey is reported as a factor that will promote rushing behaviors.We discuss these data as informative regarding how pre-tests of surveys can benefit from theseparticipants’ expertise.

Early childhood is largely recognized as a critical period for shaping the child’s eating patterns.Although interventions studies that focus on first years of life are increasing, with positive impact,the moderators of treatment gains and the relative importance of each determinant of the changeprocess have been rarely explored. This study aimed to identify potential predictors of outcomesconcerning children’s healthy and unhealthy eating behaviors after a parental school-basedintervention. An intervention longitudinal study with repeated measures at baseline and afterparticipation in the Red Apple program was performed. Parents and children were recruited in publicand state-funded kindergartens near Lisbon, Portugal. A total of 44 parents of 3- to 6-year-old childrenagreed to participate in the study and 39 met the inclusion criteria. The Red Apple program includedfour parental group sessions about young children’s growth, nutritional guidelines, and positiveparental feeding strategies, and adult-child activities and newsletters delivered to caregivers. Dataregarding children’s dietary intake, food preferences, neophobia/neophilia, parental concerns aboutthe child’s weight, and self-efficacy in promoting healthy dietary patterns in children were collectedbefore (T1) and after (T2) the intervention. Higher parental concerns about weight and self-efficacyat T1 significantly predicted children’s healthy dietary intake at T2. The only significant contributionfor children’s unhealthy dietary intake at T2 was the previous consumption of those foods at T1.Interventions that focus on parental cognitive variables might effectively contribute to positive changes in children’s dietary intake. Findings also suggest that specific targets of children’s diet may pose unlike challenges that respond differently to the mechanisms of influence of the intervention.

The rapid development of societies and the transformation of labour markets and organizationsrequires more dynamic careers nowadays. Thus, based on the career profiles described by Carson,Carson, Phillips and Roe (1996) and the association of career entrenchment and career satisfaction,we identified in this study, which career profiles currently exist. The cross-reference of data, withorganizational commitment, career commitment and turnover intention, allowed to characterize eachprofile and the factors that weigh on the decision to stay or change career, keeping or not a positiveattitude. We perform a cluster analysis using the K-means method, in a sample of 386 subjects. Theresults came across a new career profile, called transactional career, which might reflect that careersare currently more active and less stable. In the end, the results and the theoretical and practicalimplications are being discussed.

Interest in abusive supervision (Tepper, 2000) has increased due to its serious personal andorganizational costs. As such, there is a need for additional studies that identify the individuals’ factorsthat can minimize the adverse effects of abusive supervision.Specifically, we predict employee self-esteem as a buffer of the relationship between abusivesupervision, organizational trust and in-role behaviors. Additionally, we suggest organizational trustas a possible mechanism linking abusive supervision to in-role behaviors. Our model was exploredamong a sample of 201 supervisor-subordinate dyads from different organizational settings. The resultsof the moderated mediation analysis supported our hypotheses. That is, abusive supervision wassignificantly related to in-role behaviors via organizational trust when employees’ self-esteem waslow, but not when it was high. These findings suggest that self-esteem buffers the impact of abusivesupervision perceptions on organizational trust, with consequences for performance.

The Portuguese language poses several challenges for children in the initial phase of learning how toread, particularly in the case of letters that may correspond to more than one phoneme, two letters that correspond to a single phoneme and in the case of words containing complex syllabic structures. Theobjective of this study was to perform a psycholinguistic analysis of the reading errors of children, attending the 1st (n=175) and 2nd year (n=137) of schooling, specifically in the case of words containing digraphs or complex syllabic structures and to analyse the differences between children’s reading errors in these two years. An oral reading test was used for data collection. A quantitative and qualitativeanalysis of the type of reading errors was conducted using words with consonant digraphs (ch, nh, lh,gu, rr, ss), and words with complex syllables . This analysis showed that childrenpresented greater difficulties in some specific digraphs and tended to simplify complex syllables, eitherby adding or deleting phonemes. The quantity and quality of the reading errors of children attendingboth grades were discussed in light of reading acquisition theories and children’s phonologicaldevelopment.
