Background: Adapted parenting support may alleviate the high levels of parenting stress experienced by many parents with intellectual disabilities.
Methods: Parents with mild intellectual disabilities or borderline intellectual functioning were randomized to experimental (n = 43) and control (n = 42) conditions. Parents in both groups received care-as-usual. The experimental group also received an adapted version of video-feedback intervention for positive parenting and learning difficulties (VIPP-LD). Measures of parenting stress were obtained pre-test, post-test and 3-month follow-up.
Results: Randomization to the experimental group led to a steeper decline in parenting stress related to the child compared to the control group (d = 0.46). No statistically significant effect on stress related to the parent's own functioning or situation was found.
Conclusions: The results of the study suggest the feasibility of reducing parenting stress in parents with mild intellectual disability (MID) through parenting support, to the possible benefit of their children.

Forests face an escalating threat from the increasing frequency of extreme drought events driven by climate change. To address this challenge, it is crucial to understand how widely distributed species of economic or ecological importance may respond to drought stress. In this study, we examined the transcriptome of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) to identify key genes and metabolic pathways involved in the species' response to water stress.

Background: Understanding the connection between parental wellbeing and its impact on childhood depression is crucial in order to develop targeted interventions and support systems that can mitigate potential long-term effects on mental health. This study focuses on examining the properties of an Arabic translation of a questionnaire called Short Mood and Feelings Questionnaire Parent Version (SMFQ-P) as a preliminary step toward validating a culturally relevant screening tool for childhood depression in Lebanon.
Methods: A total of 502 parents, recruited through a snowball method, took part in the survey with an age of 36.
Background: The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic led to increased levels of depression among adolescents in 2019. However, the situation regarding adolescent depression in the later stages of the pandemic remains unclear. This study investigated depressive symptoms status and changing trends among middle and junior high school students from 2019 to 2023.

Article Synopsis
- Very low birth weight (VLBW) infants create significant caregiving challenges for families, making family resilience essential for managing stress and adapting after discharge.
- The study aimed to assess how family resilience affects mothers of VLBW and extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants, focusing on aspects like social support, family functioning, and parenting stress over 3 and 6 months.
- Results showed that mothers reported moderate-to-high family resilience levels, with social support and parenting stress being strong indicators of resilience, highlighting the importance of support systems in navigating the challenges of caring for premature infants.
