Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened stress and psychological distress among adults with children, particularly among certain populations. The extended Child Tax Credit (CTC) provided temporary relief to families with children, allowing researchers to examine the impact of cash transfers on adult psychological well-being. The study found that the expanded CTC led to a significant reduction in mild psychological distress symptoms, especially among certain demographic groups. However, there were no significant effects on moderate or severe distress, suggesting the need for more comprehensive interventions. The end of monthly CTC payments was associated with an increase in moderate to severe psychological distress among adults.

Strengthening workplace resilience is an important strategy to support mental health nurses' well-being and reduce the risk of mental distress.

Summary: This study aims to explore the interpersonal antecedents, transfer mechanisms, and outcomes of psychological well-being (PWB) within coach-athlete-sport psychology practitioner (SPP) triads. The study found that situational properties of stressors, factors relating to the organization, shared values and characteristics, and interpersonal resilience were antecedents of PWB. PWB was transferred through interpersonal coping, emotional contagion, and social appraising. The study also identified psychological safety, meaningful experiences of growth and development, and relational dynamics as both outcomes and antecedents of PWB. These findings have implications for research and practice.

Summary: This study explores the relationship between adolescent mental well-being, religion, and family activities in a school-based sample from Northern Ireland. The findings suggest that non-religious adolescents may have lower mental well-being scores compared to their religious peers, regardless of religious denomination. This may be due to a lack of firm identity and a sense of marginalization. Additionally, poor family cohesion is associated with poorer mental well-being in adolescents.
