Adolescence is a critical developmental stage, characterized by personal challenges and transitions, highlighting the importance of psychological well-being in maintaining positive mental health.
Purpose
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of transactional analysis (TA) training in improving psychological well-being among adolescent girls.
Methodology
A quasi-experimental study employed convenience sampling with 30 seventh-grade female high school students (M_age = 13.5). The participants were randomly assigned to either an experimental group receiving eight sessions of TA (n = 15) or a waitlist control group (n = 15). Both groups completed the short form version of Ryff's Psychological Well-Being Scale pre- and post-intervention.
Results
TA significantly improved psychological well-being in the experimental group compared to the control group (F = 4.68, p = 0.04).
Conclusion
The findings suggest that TA is an effective intervention for enhancing adolescent psychological well-being, highlighting its potential as a valuable mental health strategy.

Problem
Early initiation of substance use ( 14 years old) constitutes a key target for intervention strategies. This study investigated associations between exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and risk for future substance use among young adolescents in the United States (US); the moderating effect of family conflict was also explored.
Methods
Mixed-effects modeling was used to analyze self-report data collected from adolescents and parents at baseline and 3-year follow-up (Y3) in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study (ABCD Study) (Data Release 5.1, 2016–2022, US).
Findings
After adjusting for socio-demographic covariates, significant positive associations were found between adolescent ACEs score at baseline (ages 9–10) and risk for future alcohol (b = 0.03, p < 0.001), cigarette/e-cigarette (b = 0.04, p < 0.001), and marijuana use (b = 0.06, p < 0.001) at Y3 (ages 12–13) (n = 10,213 dyads). Family conflict reported at baseline was not found to moderate these associations.
Conclusions
Cumulative ACEs exposure was associated with increased risk for future alcohol, cigarette/e-cigarette, and marijuana use among a national sample of young adolescents. Findings highlight the potential for trauma-informed, developmentally appropriate preventative interventions to mitigate risk for future substance use among adversity-impacted adolescents.

Introduction
Adolescents are being increasingly exposed to digital media, especially in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. This reality raises concerns over the effects of this exposure, in addition to an increase in suicidal behavior and self-harm.
Aim/Question
This study aims to analyze the relationship between excessive screen time, self-harm, and suicidal behavior in adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods
This is an integrative literature review. The research question was structured using the PICOT strategy (P—adolescents; I—intensive screen and internet time; O—suicidal behavior and self-harm; and T—pandemic timeframe). The databases included were: Embase, LILACS, PubMed, Scopus, Cinahl, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. Initially, 1645 studies were found; after reviewing their titles and abstracts, 18 studies met the eligibility criteria.
Findings
The results revealed concerning associations between prolonged exposure and behaviors such as self-harm and suicidal behavior. Implications for Practice: These findings can assist nurses in identifying young individuals at risk due to inappropriate technology use, enabling the development of tailored interventions, the implementation of educational programs for healthy digital habits, and the promotion of mental well-being.
Recommendation
In light of the above, measures to mitigate this problem and the risks stemming from prolonged exposure are needed, considering that the adverse effects go beyond the pandemic context.

Introduction
Homesickness is a natural human emotion that may occur under specific conditions, such as separation from home and entry into unfamiliar environments. Children are particularly vulnerable to experiencing homesickness in scenarios such as hospitalization due to separation from home and family and exposure to an unfamiliar setting. This study aimed to clarify the concept of homesickness in hospitalized children.
Methods
Concept analysis was conducted using Walker and Avant's approach. A literature review was performed on databases including PUBMED, Google Scholar, Cochrane, and Scopus using the keywords homesickness and hospitalized children, without language restrictions, and encompassing studies published between 2000 and 2024.
Findings
A total of 198 articles and texts were identified, of which 7 met the inclusion criteria. The review revealed that homesickness manifests in two categories: physical and behavioral characteristics. Illness and hospitalization were found to trigger homesickness in children, which can have detrimental effects on their health and recovery process.
Conclusion
This study sought to analyze the concept of homesickness in hospitalized children. The clarification of this concept helps healthcare providers recognize the signs of homesickness and respond appropriately to the emotional needs of hospitalized children. Addressing these needs can reduce feelings of homesickness, thereby expediting their recovery process.

Effective management of pediatric pain, a common issue faced by pediatric nurses, requires structured and comprehensive nursing education. Nurses' abilities, such as child-liking attitudes and basic empathy, play a critical role in recognizing and managing pain. This study aimed to predict nursing students' pain awareness based on their levels of child liking and basic empathy after completing the Child Health and Diseases Nursing course.
Methods
This descriptive and correlational study included 90 third-year nursing students from a university in Turkey. Data were collected using a sociodemographic data form, the Barnett Child liking Scale, the Basic Empathy Scale, and the Pain Awareness Subdimension of the Pediatric Pain Management Scale for Nursing Students.
Findings
The students scored 80.44 ± 12.622 on the Child Liking Scale, 60.56 ± 4.557 on the Basic Empathy Scale, and 24.96 ± 2.263 on the Pediatric Pain Awareness subdimension. The PLS-SEM model revealed that child liking, and basic empathy positively and significantly influenced pain awareness (p < 0.01).
Conclusions
Nursing students demonstrated high levels of child-liking and pediatric pain awareness, with moderate empathy levels. Child-liking and empathy skills predict pain awareness, emphasizing the need for targeted professional development for nursing students aspiring to specialize in pediatric nursing.

This research was conducted to determine the care burden and care needs of mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder and factors related to these.
Design and Methods
This study employed a cross-sectional study design. The survey consisted of demographic questions as well as two questionnaires assessing care burden and care needs.
Findings
The value obtained from the Zarit Care Burden Scale in the study shows that the care burden of mothers is at the medium level (47.15 ± 11.89). It was determined that variables such as mother's age, education level of the mother, family education/counseling status, and discrimination/exclusion were affected by the burden of care. Expressions related to the care of the child diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder such as “Encountering negative expressions and behaviors of other people in social settings,” “The society's insufficient knowledge about autism spectrum disorder,” and “My child constantly needs my care” were found to be the top three problems experienced by mothers.
Practice Implications
The information provided by studies on this subject will guide child and adolescent psychiatric nurses in terms of developing the right approaches for individuals with these disorders and their relatives.

Early adolescence (10–14 years) is a critical period in which peer victimization (PV) is common. In protecting, maintaining, and improving the health of adolescents, it is important to detect PV and evaluate its relationship with the level of hope and self-concept. This study aimed to determine the PV situation of adolescents living in rural areas and establish the effect of the level of hope and self-concept on this situation.
Method
This research was conducted with 830 adolescents studying at 7 secondary schools in rural Turkey. The predictive model study was conducted between May and June 2023. Data were collected using a personal information form, the Peer Victimization Scale, the Children's Hope Scale, and Piers-Harris Children's Self-Concept Scale. Path analysis were used to evaluate the data.
Findings
It was determined that the level of PV was low, the level of hope was high, and the self-concept was moderate in adolescents living in rural areas. It was found that hope had a negative effect (β = −0.339; p < 0.001) and self-concept had a positive effect (β = 0.284; p < 0.001) on PV.
Conclusions
Of the PV cases, 19.6% were explained with hope and self-concept in adolescents. It was concluded that hope and self-concept had a protective role in PV. This study results can be used by researchers to guide PV studies targeting adolescents living in rural areas and structure intervention studies aimed at preventing victimization. Being aware of protective factors, such as strengthening the individual's internal mechanisms such as self-concept and hope, may be important for interventions against PV.

Background
The prevalence of anxiety among adolescents has seen a notable increase in recent years, becoming a significant public health concern. In fact, anxiety is substantially more prevalent in Generation Z (individuals born between 1997 and 2012) than in any of the past three generations. We aimed to examine what factors contribute to the increased prevalence in teen anxiety and identify points of intervention.
Methods
This study employed a narrative review method. We performed a literature search of the PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Medline databases and identified original research and review articles discussing increased anxiety and other mental health disorders in Generation Z.
Results
We provide a comprehensive overview of the factors contributing to the increased rates of adolescent anxiety, including academic pressures, social media influence, family dynamics, and broader societal stressors.
Conclusions
In this narrative review, we examine the multifaceted nature of adolescent anxiety, identifying contributing factors. Additionally, we discuss potential clinical, educational, and community-based interventions to prevent and treat adolescent anxiety. By understanding and addressing the underlying causes of anxiety, it is possible to mitigate its impact and promote healthier developmental trajectories for young individuals.

Problems
Family caregivers of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (FC-ASD) have been reported to experience high levels of physical and psychological distress. This bibliometric study aimed to analyze the research trends, collaboration and knowledge dissemination pertaining to FC-ASD over the past 20 years.
Methods
This study provided an analysis of documents indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC), published from January 1, 2002 to December 31, 2022. VOSviewer and R Package “bibliometrix” were used to conduct performance analysis, coauthorship analysis and keyword co-occurrence analysis.
Findings
A total of 9522 articles were included in this study. The number of annual publications has increased sharply. The United States of America demonstrated the highest scientific productivity, and Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders published the most papers on this topic. Clusters of research hotspots suggested five primary areas received considerable attention, including caregivers' burden and psychiatric problems, needs and experiences, skills training and intervention, reports of ASD symptoms, comorbidities and prevalence, as well as specific populations and periods of FC-ASD.
Conclusions
Over the past two decades, there has been a progressive increase in the number of publications in the field of FC-ASD. There is a need for further research focused on multidisciplinary, family-centered and telehealth-based interventions, as well as qualitative studies aimed at exploring the experiences of FC-ASD.
