Background: Students who have experienced adversity tend to demonstrate poorer academic outcomes than their non-maltreated peers. Academic engagement, a multidimensional, motivational construct, associated with a myriad of positive academic outcomes is an important academically-related mechanism that can be leveraged to improve the outcomes of this population.
Objective: The present study aimed to better understanding of how engagement develops in the context of adversity by exploring the effects emotion regulation skills and parent-child relationships have on engagement development.
Participants And Setting: Analyses were conducted on 795 participants in the NSCAW dataset.
Methods: Path analysis was used to estimate mediation and moderated mediation models.
Results: Emotion regulation skills significantly mediated the effect experiencing trauma symptoms had on engagement. Parent-child relationship quality moderated the mediation effect emotion regulation skills had on the relationship between experiencing trauma symptoms and engagement.
Conclusions: Emotion regulation skills and parent-child relationship quality are potential intervention targets to improve engagement for students who have experienced adversity.

Introduction: Self-efficacy is a critical determinant of students' academic success and overall life outcomes. Despite its recognized importance, research on predictors of self-efficacy using machine learning models remains limited, particularly within Muslim societies. This study addresses this gap by leveraging advanced machine learning techniques to analyze key factors influencing students' self-efficacy.

Telomeres, which protect the chromosomal ends, are vital for cellular senescence and health. Telomere shortening, often due to stress, inflammation, and oxidative damage, is linked to age-related diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular issues, and neurodegeneration. Evidence suggests that meditation may affect telomere dynamics by reducing stress and inflammation and improving emotional regulation.

Psychological resilience is a key factor for societal and military stability when faced with terror attacks and/or war. The research presents physiological findings-obtained with the electrodermal activity (EDA) and Auditory Sustained Attention Test (ASAT)-on stress responses, attentional and emotion regulation abilities in 57 Israel Defense Force male and female combat soldiers during the ongoing Israel-Hamas war. In addition, it shows self-reported resilience scores and post traumatic symptomatology measured by questionnaires and explores the relationship between the subjective and objective data.
