Article Synopsis
- * Researchers focused on five subdivisions of the primate amygdala in macaques, baboons, and humans, identifying distinct types of excitatory and inhibitory neurons, including specific interneurons.
- * Findings reveal the molecular diversity of amygdalar neuron types, which may enhance current understanding of how these brain circuits affect cognition and mental health, particularly in relation to nonhuman primate models.
Objective: The disparity of problems, impairments, and disorders among children in foster care is well-documented and spans virtually every domain of functioning. Sleep, however, has received minimal attention among this vulnerable group, which is concerning given the multitude of ways sleep affects children's development, health, and behavior.
Methods: A total of 485 foster caregivers from across the United States completed a survey including quantitative items and qualitative, open-ended questions about sleep and related health and behavior for one child (M = 6.
Objective: Evidence of poor sleep health among children in foster care continues to mount, but information about whether and how sleep problems are addressed is unavailable. The goal of this study was to begin to fill these significant knowledge gaps.
Methods: Four hundred eighty-five foster caregivers from across the United States completed a survey focused on the sleep health of one child, 4 to 11 years ( M = 6.
