This study examined whether stress negatively relates to sexual satisfaction in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic by way of influencing which type of sexual motivation individuals might have for engaging in sexual relations. Participants (N = 162) completed measures of perceived stress, motivations for engaging in sex, and sexual satisfaction in romantic relationships. Results revealed that participants experiencing higher levels of stress experienced lower sexual satisfaction and were more strongly motivated by avoidanceoriented reasons for engaging in sexual relations. Being more motivated to engage in sexual activity for coping reasons coincided with lesser sexual satisfaction. Conversely, those who were more strongly motivated by approach-oriented reasons for engaging in sexual activity reported greater sexual satisfaction. No support was found for sexual motivation as a mediator of the relation between stress and sexual satisfaction.

Globally, COVID-19 has brought upon many challenges to mental health. Social distancing and isolation have led people to experience greater anxiety and negative affect, and financial distress has increased due to economic changes. Demographic features may differentiate the severity of distress individuals face. Using data from The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), the present study examined measures of psychological distress across a Canadian sample, identifying differences in age, sex, and income levels. Trends over time were observed. Lower-income Canadians reported higher distress. Women may be at greater risk than men, as well as younger compared to older Canadians. Psychological distress has remained relatively stable throughout the pandemic, although COVID-19 financial worry has lessened as people are not as worried about their finances. The findings of this study are informative of socioeconomic, sex, and age differences in mental health throughout the pandemic in a Canadian sample.

According to the tend-and-befriend theory, shared stressors may create situations in which the inclination to interact with another person (i.e., immediate affiliative desire) is elevated. This may create a situational context in which sustained affiliative responses towards an interaction partner are more likely to occur in the longer-term. In the present study, we randomly assigned 85 undergraduate stranger dyads (N = 170 participants; all women) to either shared stress or shared control experiences and measured immediate affiliative desire. The strangers in the dyads then interacted with one another in a discussion task, and participants’ long-term affiliative responses (liking and future intentions to affiliate) were assessed. The evidence suggested that shared stressful experiences (vs. the shared control experiences) promoted significantly more immediate affiliative desire. Furthermore, immediate affiliative desire mediated the association between shared stress and long-term affiliative responses. These findings offer insight into how shared stress may influence friendship development.

This cross-sectional study explores the impact of job satisfaction on the link between work climate and work engagement in the context of a pandemic. A self-reported questionnaire was administered to 261 French- speaking workers from Quebec. The results suggest that low satisfaction moderates the relationship between work climate and two dimensions of engagement: vigor (β = -.098, SE = .048, p = .044) and dedication (β = -.093, SE = .047, p = .049). This study highlights the impact of job satisfaction as a moderating variable in the context of a pandemic and justifies the importance of prioritizing employee satisfaction before deploying measures to improve the work climate.
本横断面研究探讨了大流行背景下工作满意度对工作氛围和工作投入之间关系的影响。对来自魁北克省的261名讲法语的工人进行了自我报告问卷调查。结果表明，低满意度调节了工作氛围与敬业度两个维度的关系:活力(β = -)。098, SE = .048, p = .044)和奉献(β = -。093, SE = .047, p = .049)。这项研究强调了在大流行背景下，工作满意度作为一个调节变量的影响，并证明了在采取措施改善工作氛围之前优先考虑员工满意度的重要性。

The purpose of this study is to observe whether workplace stress could act as a moderator in the relationship between value congruence and intrinsic motivation. According to theoretical perspectives, stress-related psychological demands should attenuate the positive effect of value congruence-related psychological resources on motivation. 294 subjects participated in this study by completing questionnaires on our three variables of interest on the Prolific platform. The results did not show an interaction effect by stress on the relationship between value congruence and intrinsic motivation. Moreover, an equivalence test indicated that the moderation effect size was too small to influence the practical level. In conclusion, the hypothesis postulating a moderating link of stress on the relationship between value congruence and intrinsic motivation was not confirmed.

This article is an investigation of the current diagnostic criteria set for dissociative identity disorder. Advancements in scholarly research have resulted in the current diagnostic criteria not reflecting new insights gathered since its most recent update. An examination of the progression of diagnostic criteria reveals the need for continual updates, including the proposed stipulation that while distinct, personalities seen in individuals diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder are fragmentations of a singular core, or host, personality. Recommendations for the application of the proposed amendments and its their strengths and limitations are discussed.

According to the Institut de la statistique du Québec (2015), 4,9% of Quebecois between 25 to 44 years-old, period in which one becomes a parent, had suffered of depressive disorder in 2012. Depressive disorders can take various forms and can have diverse consequences on the person, especially on their environment, their marital relation and on their relations with their children. Moreover, this psychopathology can increase distress among kids. Currently, in the scientific literature, various articles mention the impact of the mother’s depression on her children, but very few studies tackle the impact of depression in both of parents on their children. This article wants to elaborate an integration model who will put emphasis on the impact of both parent’s depression on their child. This study hypothesizes that depressive disorders will manifest differently in both parents, but will essentially result in issues relating to the child’s affective ties.

Overall, research supports the positive impact of parents on their children; effective parenting not only prevents criminal behavior in youth but also cultivates a host of other desirable psychosocial outcomes later in life. Parental involvement is examined in this archival analysis of the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) to determine whether parental involvement predicts juvenile delinquency, using a community sample of 13,287 youth aged 12 to 17 years. Parental involvement was negatively associated with number of arrests and differed considerably between justice-involved and non-justice-involved youth; racial category was included as an exploratory analysis. Whether youth were placed on probation (but not parole) was coupled with lower parental involvement compared to non-justice-involved youth. These results are indicative of the protective effect that parents may have on adolescent outcomes, showing that higher parental involvement is associated with reduced juvenile delinquency.

In accord with its conceptualization as a deficit, alexithymia has often been theorized and tested as a mediator of the association between childhood risk factors and later psychopathology. However, this is questioned by recent research which conceptualizes alexithymia as the result of negative perceptions of emotions, which by themselves could act as the real mediator of this association between childhood risk factors and later psychopathology. Cross-sectional data were collected through self-report questionnaires,from 193 undergraduate students. Results suggest that, in non-clinical samples, the association between an unsupportive emotion socialization alexithymia is completely mediated by avoidance-related negative attitudes towards sadness. Also, the association between emotion socialization and later psychopathology is not (in the case of borderline personality traits) or only minimally (in the case of depressive symptoms) mediated by alexithymia when these avoidance-related negative attitudes towards sadness are also included as a mediator. Theoretical and clinical implications are discussed.

Building on past research, this study examined whether endorsement of feminism is still influenced by terminology used (i.e., feminism vs. women’s movement) and participant gender. One hundred undergraduates (36 men and 64 women) were randomly assigned to receive scale items that identified feminist values but used the terms feminism/feminist or women’s movement/women depending on the condition they were assigned. In addition, activism, acceptance of traditional gender roles, and feminist identification were measured. As expected, men endorsed feminism less than women overall, and participants in the women’s movement (vs. feminism) condition endorsed feminism more. When controlling for feminist identification, there was no gender difference in activism or acceptance of gender roles for participants in the feminism/feminist condition; however, women reported more activism and less acceptance of gender roles than men in the women’s movement/women condition. This study suggests that there is still a stigma surrounding feminism that influences its endorsement, especially among women.
