“…The results also revealed that high SSS moderated the effect of CPAN on psychological suzhi , which partly supported the H6. However, contrary to previous work demonstrating that high SSS could serve as a protective factor against a range of mental health problems [ 74 ], this finding showed that the link between CPAN and psychological suzhi was more significant when SSS was high, while the link was insignificant when SSS was low. One possible explanation for this is that high SSS may also operate as a vulnerable factor that undermines an individual’s psychological functioning in the presence of adversities [ 75 ].…”

Prosocial behavior plays a vital role in adolescents’ well-being and social functioning, with the recall of early emotional experiences being a major influence. Positive experiences such as early memories of warmth and safeness (EMWS) contribute to prosocial interpersonal characteristics, whereas adverse experiences such as child psychological abuse and neglect (CPAN) lead to social withdrawal or behavioral problems. The direct effects of EMWS and CPAN on prosocial behavior were investigated in this study, along with the mediation effect of psychological suzhi and the moderation effect of subjective socioeconomic status (SSS). A sample of 948 adolescents (Mage = 14.05 years, SD = 1.68 years; 43.6% females) was randomly recruited to complete self-report questionnaires. Correlation results indicated that EMWS promoted prosocial behavior, whereas CPAN was negatively associated with prosocial behavior. Path analyses confirmed the mediating role of psychological suzhi on the effects of EMWS and CPAN on prosocial behavior. SSS was shown to moderate the effects of EMWS on prosocial behavior and CPAN on psychological suzhi. Compared to lower SSS, higher SSS would reinforce the positive impact of EMWS on prosocial behavior and exacerbate the negative impact of CPAN on psychological suzhi. The current study provided new insight into understanding the underlying mechanisms of prosocial behavior from the perspective of early emotional experiences.

“…Winsorization is a common statistic technique to deal with outliers, which replaces the extreme values with a prespecific value. The technique is applied in many fields, such as finance (Berg‐Jacobsen & Tran, 2021; Khan & Fahim, 2021), biometrics (Lan et al., 2022; Li et al., 2021), and psychology (Anderson et al., 2022; Sales et al., 2021), and is commonly incorporated the mainstream statistic software like SPSS, 2 STATA, 3 and scipy 4 package for Python. In this paper, we adopt this technique to formulate a winsorized BW maximization model as follows:

$$\begin{align} \mbox{[BW-R]}\quad \max _{\bm{x}\in \mathcal {X}} \mathbb {E}_{\hat{\mathbb {P}}_N} (\min (\lbrace \tilde{c}(\bm{x})\rbrace ^+,c)).

We study the product design problem where a decision maker selects the features of a product from a set of feasible options. We focus on two widely studied objectives in this field, that is, the share of choice (SOC) and buyers' welfare (BW). The two objectives are vulnerable to different types of customer preference misspecification, that is, deviation from the nominal utility distribution and effects of outliers, respectively. We formulate a distributionally robust optimization (DRO) SOC maximization model and a winsorized BW maximization model to obtain robust solutions to the two problems. Interestingly, we show that the two robust models are equivalent in a certain sense-for appropriate choices of robustness parameters, both models return the same solution. This observation has important ramifications. For instance, it indicates that a product designed to yield higher BW is more robust to the deviation from the nominal utility distribution for the SOC problem, while that with higher SOC is less sensitive to the effect of outliers for the BW problem. Last but not least, we use the equivalence to develop a new approach to solve the DRO model for the SOC problem, using a version of the winsorized BW model. Extensive numerical experiments demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed approach.

“…A study in the United States, for example, found that the economic status of the household was associated with externalizing and internalizing symptoms among adolescents. Relatedly, Anderson et al (2022) theorized that lower SES, which could be the result of lower household income or lower parental education, would increase adolescent exposure to family adversity through harsh parenting and that harsh parenting had negative effects on adolescent mental health. Other studies have also found that harsh or aggressive parenting impacted adolescent mental health negatively, with adolescents who experience aggression at home being more likely to display violent behaviors toward their peers (Yap & Jorm, 2015).…”

BackgroundThe association between family adversity and young people's mental health outcomes in communities that experience economic instability has not been well explored in the South African context. Furthermore, the overtime interaction between resilience factors, family adversity, and young people's psychological functioning in African settings, like South Africa, is under‐investigated.PurposeThis study investigates the relationship between family adversity and conduct problems and depression at two‐time points in a sample of youths in two South African communities stressed by their dependency on economically volatile oil and gas industries.MethodThis article draws on longitudinal data generated by the Resilient Youth in Stressed Environments (RYSE) study in South Africa, which included 914 and 528 (wave 1 and 3) adolescents and emerging adults (14–27‐year‐olds; M age = 18.36 years) living in Secunda/eMbalenhle and Sasolburg/Zamdela. Participants were sampled at baseline (wave 1) and 18–24 months later (wave 3). They self‐reported experience of community violence, family adversity, resilience‐enabling resources, conduct difficulties, and depression symptoms. Regression analyses were used to examine the unadjusted and adjusted association of family adversity on conduct problem and depression.ResultsAbout 60% of participants reported high family adversity. Regressions, however, revealed no association between family adversity and conduct problems and depression cross‐sectionally and over time. Individual resilience, biological sex, and experience of victimization in the community, however, were associated with conduct difficulty while all three resilience factors were associated with decreased depression among participants.ConclusionOur study sheds light on the risk and protective factors for mental health outcomes of adolescents and youths who reside in volatile, turbulent communities and experience ongoing familial challenges. To effectively support the mental well‐being of young individuals in such contexts, interventions must consider the potential ambivalence of the resilience factors they aim to strengthen.
