Objective
This study examined the protective role of self-esteem and perceived emotional intelligence on mental health problems in Spanish adolescents during COVID-19 pandemic.
Method
Participants (N = 139; Mage = 13.83 years; SD = 0.96; 63.8% female) completed measures before the outbreak of COVID-19 (T1) and during the first wave of the pandemic in Spain (T2). Participants self-reported emotional intelligence, self-esteem, mental health problems and suicidal behavior.
Results
Adolescent mental health problems were equally affected by COVID-19 pandemic according to gender, age and lockdown conditions. Adolescents with low levels of emotional intelligence and self-esteem at T1 showed a significant decrease in self-reported anxiety, depression, stress and suicidal behavior at T2. However, adolescents with average or high levels of emotional intelligence and self-esteem at T1 showed no significant changes in mental health problems at T2. Self-esteem at T1 meditated the relationships between emotional intelligence at T1 (clarity and repair) and emotional symptoms at T2 (depression, anxiety and stress). Furthermore, the relationship between self-esteem and anxiety symptoms was moderated by the number of people living together during COVID-19 lockdown.
Conclusion
Our findings highlight the protective role of pre-pandemic development of self-esteem and emotional intelligence in mitigating the impact of COVID-19 outbreak on adolescent mental health during the pandemic.

Background
Evidence from Euro-American and Eastern cultures suggest that parenting practices are linked to diverse problems, including aggression in youths. Findings from the sub-Saharan region rarely contribute to this debate.
Method
We examined the contributions of Baumrind's parenting style typology to overt aggression among Nigerian adolescents. Adolescents (n = 261) completed measures of parenting styles and overt aggression.
Results
Results revealed that males were more overtly aggressive compared to females. Parenting styles were weakly related to overt aggression in adolescents. Girls who received authoritative parenting styles were the only group noticed to have a decline in overt aggression especially as they grew older. Boys who received authoritative parenting as well as boys and girls who received both authoritarian and permissive parenting reported sustained heightened levels of overt aggression even as they grew older.
Conclusion
Parenting outcomes differ between gender and that authoritative parenting training could help reduce overt aggression among adolescent girls.

Introduction
Pregnancy and the birth of a child are times of great vulnerability that can disrupt the couple and sometimes trigger violence.
Objective
This study sets out to examine how a child's exposure to intimate partner violence at a very young age can impact their development and adjustment, and more specifically, to highlight the social, emotional, traumatic and family consequences for children exposed to intimate partner violence in early or late childhood.
Method
Our sample comprised 46 children aged between 5 and 12. The following measurement tools were used: SAGA (Systemic Analysis of Group Affiliation) test (Compagnone, 2009) for family cohesion representations, CBCL (Child Behavior Checklist) (Achenbach, 1991) for social and emotional adjustment, and TSCC (Trauma Symptom Checklist for Children) (Briere, 1989) for post-traumatic stress.
Results
Results indicate that children exposed to intimate partner violence at an early age are the most likely to present symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Conclusion
The representation of the cohesiveness of the mother–child relationship plays a moderating role between the onset of intimate partner violence and the externalized adjustment displayed by the children. This leads us to posit that a poor cohesive mother–child relationship is a risk factor for the child's adjustment.

France is one of the European countries with the highest prevalence of cannabis use, particularly in adolescence. Emotional regulation (ER) is one of the major risk factor in the etiology and the maintenance of cannabis use disorder and therefore is a key target for prevention programs.
Objectives
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and the impact of a prevention program focusing on ER (especially on various emotional skills like awareness, emotional clarity and reactivity, ER strategies, and the level of emotional awareness) and on cannabis use among adolescents from various institutions.
Method
In total, 87 adolescents from various institutions were included. ER was assessed by the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale, the Emotion Reactivity Scale and the Adolescent Levels of Emotional Awareness Scale; cannabis use was assess by the Cannabis Abuse Screening Test (CAST). All participants were assess before preventive intervention (T0) and four months after the end of the program (T1).
Results
Between T0 and T1, for all participants, there was an increase of emotional awareness, a decrease of emotional sensitivity, intensity and persistence, and an increase of the level of emotional awareness (total, self and others). There was no significant difference between T0 and T1 in CAST scores.
Conclusions
The prevention program showed encouraging results with a vulnerable group of adolescents in institutional care, particularly those from the Child Social Care (Aide sociale à l’enfance) and Child Forensic Institution (Protection judiciaire de la jeunesse) by showing an effect on different components of ER but not directly on cannabis use.
法国是大麻使用率最高的欧洲国家之一,尤其是在青少年中。情绪调节(ER)是大麻使用障碍病因和维持的主要危险因素之一,因此是预防计划的关键目标。本研究旨在评估一项预防计划的可行性和影响,该计划侧重于急诊室(特别是各种情绪技能,如意识、情绪清晰度和反应性、急诊室策略和情绪意识水平)和来自不同机构的青少年的大麻使用。方法共纳入87名来自不同机构的青少年。采用情绪调节问卷、情绪调节困难量表、情绪反应量表和青少年情绪意识水平量表对青少年的情绪反应能力进行评估;大麻使用情况通过大麻滥用筛选试验(CAST)进行评估。在预防干预前(T0)和项目结束后4个月(T1)对所有参与者进行评估。结果在T0 ~ T1期间,所有参与者的情绪意识都有所增加,情绪敏感性、强度和持久性有所下降,情绪意识(总体、自我和他人)水平有所提高。T0与T1的CAST评分差异无统计学意义。结论:预防方案在机构护理中的弱势青少年群体中显示出令人鼓舞的结果,特别是那些来自儿童社会护理机构(Aide sociale l’enance)和儿童法医机构(Protection judiciaire de la jeunesse)的青少年,显示出对ER的不同成分有影响,但对大麻使用没有直接影响。

Introduction
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the temporary closure of educational institutions led to the adoption of remote or online learning delivery. Challenges, especially for grade schools were evident.
Objective
This study aimed to identify factors affecting the perceived online discussion experience of Filipino primary students through distance learning in the National Capital Region, Philippines.
Method
Variables such as cognitive presence, teaching presence, social presence, and online discussion experience were investigated simultaneously by utilizing the structural equation modeling (SEM) and random forest classifier (RFC) approach. A total of 385 currently enrolled Filipino grade school student participants were surveyed.
Results
Results show that cognitive presence has the most significant impact on the perceived online discussion experience, followed by teaching presence, and social presence. This study is the first study that analyzed the online discussion experience among grade school students in online education in the Philippines considering SEM and RFC. It was seen that highly significant factors such as teaching presence, cognitive presence, social presence, triggering events, and exploration will lead to high and very high learning experience with grade school students.
Conclusion
The findings of this study would be significant for teachers, educational institutions, and government agencies to improve the online delivery of primary education in the country. In addition, this study presents a reliable model and results which can be extended and applied for academicians, educational institutions, and the education sector to develop ways in enhancing the online delivery of primary education worldwide.

Consistently with Bandura's theory of moral disengagement, we examined if moral disengagement predicted employees’ counterproductive work behaviours and organizational citizenship behaviours, also assessing moral competence as a moderator that, at higher values, could mitigate the positive association with counterproductive work behaviours and mitigate the negative association with organizational citizenship behaviours.
Method
Five hundred eighty-three Italian employees completed a time-lagged online survey including the following measures: Work Moral Disengagement Scale (Fida, Paciello et al., 2015), Moral Competence Test (Lind, 1985), Counterproductive Work Behavior Checklist (Spector et al., 2006), Organizational Citizenship Behavior Scale (Podsakoff et al., 1990). Associations between variables were examined via multiple linear regressions with bootstrapping, while the interactions were probed through the Johnson-Neyman technique.
Results
Moral disengagement is positively related to counterproductive work behaviours and negatively related to organizational citizenship behaviours. Furthermore, the association between moral disengagement and counterproductive work behaviours is moderated by moral competence, with a significant positive association only at lower levels of the moderator.
Conclusion
We demonstrated for the first time the potentially significant role played by moral competence as a moderator that could reduce the negative effects of moral disengagement on deviant and unethical organizational behaviours, discussing our results in light of available evidence and theory, and elaborating on practical implications.
客观地与班杜拉的道德脱离理论一致,我们研究了道德脱离是否预测了员工适得其反的工作行为和组织公民行为,并评估了道德能力作为调节因素,在更高的价值观下,可以减轻与适得其反的工作行为的积极关联,并减轻与组织公民行为的消极关联。方法583名意大利员工完成了一项时间滞后的在线调查,包括以下指标:工作道德脱离量表(Fida,Paciello et al.,2015)、道德能力测试(Lind,1985)、反生产性工作行为清单(Spector et al.,2006)、组织公民行为量表(Podsakoff et al.,1990)。通过多重线性回归和自举检验变量之间的相关性,同时通过Johnson Neyman技术探讨相互作用。结果道德脱离与适得其反的工作行为呈正相关,与组织公民行为负相关。此外,道德脱离和适得其反的工作行为之间的联系受到道德能力的调节,只有在较低级别的调节者中才有显著的积极联系。结论我们首次证明了道德能力作为调节因素所发挥的潜在重要作用,可以减少道德脱离对越轨和不道德组织行为的负面影响,并根据现有证据和理论讨论了我们的结果,并详细阐述了实际意义。

Introduction
Innovative employee behavior plays a vital role in creating a competitive edge for organizations. While some studies have highlighted the benefits of spiritual leadership for employees, there is a lack of research exploring the psychological mechanisms behind these benefits from an intrinsic needs perspective.
Objective
This study aims to examine the internal mechanism between spiritual leadership and followers’ innovative behavior, and the influence of spiritual leadership on employees’ innovative behavior.
Method
The study conducted a three-stage questionnaire to investigate 886 employees of Chinese companies and used the bootstrap approach to test mediating effects.
Results
The results indicate that spiritual leadership has a positive impact on employees’ innovative behavior. Psychological capital and intrinsic motivation were identified as the mediating variables between spiritual leadership and innovative behavior. Furthermore, the study found a sequential mediating effect from psychological capital to intrinsic motivation.
Conclusion
Spiritual leadership can stimulate employees to exhibit more innovative behaviors by enhancing their psychological capital and intrinsic motivation.

Introduction
The development of digital technologies raises the question of their impact on our neurocognitive abilities. To answer this question requires first to identify the cognitive functions that individuals attempt to support by using digital technologies.
Objective
The objective was to develop a psychometric tool, the Digital Cognition Scale NUMERICOG, allowing us to identify these cognitive functions.
Methods
We followed a four-step method. First, we conducted a survey (Step 1) to collect spontaneous uses of digital technologies (n = 160), allowing us to generate 94 items that we have subsequently sorted (Step 2) to produce a 24-item scale (n = 392). The psychometric qualities of our model were then tested (Step 3: n = 754) to obtain norms (Step 4; n = 1132).
Results
The scale consisted of four sub-scales that assess the propensity of an individual to use digital technologies to support their socio-emotional cognition, decision making, semantic memory, and episodic memory/executive functions.
Conclusion
The scale can be used to start the investigation of the consequences of our use of digital technologies on the four aforementioned cognitive functions.

Introduction
Certain professions are particularly exposed to stress and must make decisions with far-reaching consequences. Recent research indicates that stress alters subsequent decision-making. The two current studies examine the predictive effect of perceived stress and leadership responsibility on moral decision-making among emergency service personnel.
Objective
We hypothesized that under high levels of perceived stress, fewer utilitarian and fewer altruistic decisions are made. Utilitarian decisions involve saving the lives of more people while sacrificing a smaller number of people. Altruistic decisions lead to outcomes that benefit others rather than oneself. Furthermore, we hypothesized that leaders under high levels of perceived stress make more utilitarian and altruistic decisions than non-leaders.
Method
Two different samples (N1 = 368; N2 = 562) were exposed to two different types of moral dilemmas (Sample 1: sacrificial dilemmas, Sample 2: everyday dilemmas). Stress levels were assessed using the Perceived Stress Scale. The hypotheses were tested with hierarchical regression analysis.
Results
As hypothesized, in sacrificial dilemmas, high perceived stress levels predicted a decrease in utilitarian decisions. Moreover, highly stressed leaders made more utilitarian decisions compared to non-leaders. In everyday dilemmas, high-perceived stress levels predicted fewer altruistic decisions. No moderating effect of leadership responsibility was observed.
Conclusion
Our results indicate that perceived stress predicts moral decision-making among emergency service personnel.
