Vocational training of general practitioners in Belgium consists--among others--of 34 seminars to be followed in small groups during a period of two years. The purpose of this study was to develop an instrument for continuing evaluation of this system, and to gather evaluative data. 58% of 177 young general practitioners responded to our postal inquiry, in which ten open-ended questions were put, and 50 statements were to be rated on a six-point-scale. The inquiry revealed that the Belgian vocational training has a large influence on the evolution from inexperienced young doctor to self-confident general practitioner. Factor analysis on the scores of the 50 statements uncovered three dimensions: (1) working climate, (2) learning results, and (3) identification. The reliability of the scales, constructed for each of these factors, was between 0.80 and .86 (Cronbach's alpha). Mean scores on these scales were all high. The Belgian vocational training seems to be accepted and appreciated by the young GPs, but improvements might be suggested.

Objective: Prior studies have shown that parental psychological control is linked to an increased risk of mobile phone addiction. Nevertheless, few studies have analyzed the potential mechanisms that may mediate or moderate this association. This study aims to investigate the role of loneliness as a mediator in the relationship between parental psychological control and mobile phone addiction, as well as the potential moderating effect of physical activity on this mediation process.

Background: Understanding sleep problems in late adolescents caused by daily stress is essential due to their increased vulnerability to stress-related sleep issues. While previous research has demonstrated the potential protective effect of trait mindfulness, facets of mindfulness were found to have unique functions against the negative impact of stress, and the unique impact of each facet of mindfulness on the sleep problems caused by the negative impact of stress remains unclear. Thus, this longitudinal study aimed to assess the impact of stressful life events on sleep problems a year later among late adolescents and to explore the moderating effects of the five trait mindfulness facets.
