“…Moreover, we found that depression symptoms at T1 negatively predicted mindfulness at T2. This result may be explained by the fact that depression symptoms may impair the cognitive functioning of adolescents, including the capacity to attend to the present moment, a core component of mindfulness (An et al, 2018b). Indeed, adolescents are characterized by immature cognition and emotion capacities (Crone and Dahl, 2012).…”

“…Alternatively, depression symptoms may hinder one's capacity to be mindful because attention (an important dimension of mindfulness) may be negatively influenced by stressful events (Vasterling et al, 2002). In a longitudinal study with adolescents, researchers demonstrated that baseline posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms predicted significantly lower levels of mindfulness over a 3-month period among 204 adolescent tornado survivors (An et al, 2018b). This study was interesting because it appeared that depression was predictive of the development of mindfulness in young people and vice versa.…”

The aim of this study is to examine the longitudinal relationships between cyberbullying perpetration, mindfulness, and depression among Chinese adolescents. The participants in our study included 1390 high school students who were randomly selected from several secondary schools in east China. Participants completed the Chinese version of Revised Cyber Bullying Inventory-Cyberbullying Subscale, the Chinese version of the Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale and the Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale for Children at two time points (6-month interval). The results found that cyberbullying, mindfulness and depression would predict each other over time. Contributions to theory, limitations in our research and recommendations for future intervention are discussed in this article.

“…Experiencing traumatic events has the power to change an individual's beliefs about the self, others, and the world (Janoff-Bulman & Yopyk, 2004). Although these changes can lead to a host of posttraumatic symptoms, survivors of natural disasters can also experience posttraumatic growth (PTG; An et al, 2018). PTG is defined as the positive outcomes that emerge from otherwise negative experiences (Tedeschi & Calhoun, 1996) and is believed to be an essential part of the posttraumatic event healing process (Anderson, 2017).…”

We conducted two focus groups and four individual interviews to examine the experiences of Florida Puerto Rican adults ( N = 26) with secondary exposure to the devastation caused by Hurricane María. Results from our thematic analysis yielded four major themes and eight subthemes depicting responses to Hurricane María. Four major themes emerged across participant responses: 1) Participants’ Experience with Hurricane María, 2) Participants’ Negative Reactions to Hurricane María, 3) Participants Providing Support, and 4) Resilience and Growth. We also found that Florida Puerto Ricans’ secondary stress reactions were influenced by Puerto Rico’s political status and economic crisis. Results also indicated that participants experienced vicarious posttraumatic growth not only at the individual but also at the community level.

“…In addition, the authors found significantly greater odds of both disorders among students with family/friends who were injured by the tornado (PTSD: odds ratio (OR) 1.98, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.01–3.92; depression: OR 2.05, 95% CI 1.03–4.07). A number of studies presented additional cross-sectional analyses of the same sample at three [ 53 ], six [ 39 , 47 , 51 ], nine [ 39 , 47 ], and 12 [ 39 ] months post-tornado, each exploring a slightly different conceptual model. In addition, several other studies appeared to use overlapping samples [ 46 , 50 , 52 , 54 ].…”

Children, particularly those living in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), are highly vulnerable to climate change and its impacts. Our main objective was to conduct a scoping literature review to determine how exposure to climate change and climate-related disasters influences the presence of mental disorders among children in LMICs. We also aimed to identify gaps in this area of scholarship. We included studies of children in LMICs that had a climate change or climate-related disaster exposure and mental disorder outcome. Twenty-three studies were included in the final synthesis. Fourteen studies were conducted in China, three in India, two each in Pakistan and the Philippines, and one each in Namibia and Dominica. All studies assessed the association between a climate-related disaster exposure and a mental disorder outcome, while none explored broader climate change-related exposures. Post-traumatic stress disorder (n = 21 studies) and depression (n = 8 studies) were the most common mental disorder outcomes. There was considerable between-study heterogeneity in terms of sample size, follow-up length, and outcome measurement. Overall, the literature in this area was sparse. Additional high-quality research is required to better understand the impacts of climate-related disasters and climate change on mental disorders within this population to ultimately inform future policies and interventions.
