When experiencing sexual health uncertainties, emerging adults often rely on friends for support; however, the support provided is not always helpful. This study situates support in response to uncertainty within appraisal and attribution theories to explain nurturant, informational, and tangible support provision. Study 1 coded 441 participants' responses to open-ended questions about a recent conversation about a friend's sexual health uncertainty.

Rett syndrome (RS) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder primarily caused by mutations in the X-linked methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene, responsible for encoding MECP2 which plays a pivotal role in regulating gene expression. The neurological and non-neurological manifestations of RS vary widely in severity depending on the specific mutation type. Bone complications, mostly scoliosis but also osteoporosis, hip displacement, and a high rate of fractures, are among the most prevalent non-neurological comorbidities observed in girls with RS.

In response to stressors, individuals manifest varied behavioral responses directed toward satisfying physiological survival needs. Although the enduring effects of adolescent stress on both humans and animals are well-documented, the underlying mechanisms remain insufficiently elucidated. Utilizing immunofluorescence, viral injections, and brain slice electrophysiological recordings, we have delineated that heightened excitability among glutamatergic neurons in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) is responsible for inducing heightened exploratory behaviors in adolescent mice subjected to mild, chronic restraint stress.
