A formative evaluation of a web-based intervention for women with a sexual

assault history and heavy alcohol use. Psychological trauma: theory, research,

practice, and policy.

https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2021-21165-001

The purpose of this research was to create an intervention based on web aiming at

women in college with sex assault accounts. The content focus of the source talks the

effects of excessive drinking that and its adverse effects. The number of participants

was 30 women who liked to drink heavily with past sex assault accounts. Their details

were gotten from the office of the registrar of the University. Data was collected

through background questionnaires which consisted of a 3-hour online survey. The

source was useful since it offered useful guidance to the women. The results from the

study indicated that the women responded positively to the intervention content. The

source is reliable as it provides an insight and explain in the detail the dangers of

excessive drinking.

on dark trait development throughout childhood and adolescence. Personality

Disorders: Theory, Research, and Treatment.

https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2021-34842-001

This study aimed to evaluate the beneficial and negative impacts of disciplinary

tactics by parents on dark traits throughout childhood and adolescence. The

participants were kids drawn from the public, and also kids pertaining to the mental
 3

health were included in the research. The University Ethical Review Board approved

the procedures for the data collection, and the methods used were a five-wave multi-

informant design. The results from this study indicated the existence of children who

exhibited all the childhood dark traits and that the upbringing of these "difficult" kids

may be presumptively linked to a leading trend of their guardians to depend on

control methods. The results further indicate that discipline, whether physical or

nonphysical, has negative ramifications on the subsequent dark trait development.

Nonphysical punishment is credited for shaping dark childhood traits towards being

more mature; physical discipline, on the opposite reduces the natural maturation in all

the dark traits. Again, the results show that kids may gain from nonphysical

discipline. The content focus cautions parents against physical assault as it can lead to

bad relationship between the kids and the parents. The source is useful as it explains

the effects of physical punishment and encourages the parents to engage more on

nonphysical discipline.

Gesualdo, C., & Pinquart, M. (2021). Expectancy challenge interventions to reduce

alcohol consumption among high school and college students: A meta-analysis—

psychology of addictive behaviors.

https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2021-35549-001

This study was conducted to examine the anticipation challenge intercessions to

curtail the excessive uptake of alcohol among learning in colleges and high schools.

Expectancy challenge geared at exploiting complimentary alcohol anticipations to

regulate and stop the use of alcohol among high school and college students. Data

inquiry was done using Comprehensive MetaAnalysis software. Four thousand one

hundred twenty-two participants were included in the study and all were students. The

results indicated that the meta-analysis on the EC intercessions among learners

 4

presented motivating trends and that the intercessions served to curtail the gobbling of

alcohol and expectancies among the youth. Excessive consumption among the youth

is harmful as it affects their studies. Students should concentrate on their studies as

alcohol will ruin their lives.

behavior analytic research: A systematic review. Behavior Analysis: Research

and Practice. https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2021-90834-001

This study investigates the employment of machine-driven data collection in applied

behavior. Applied behavior analysis examines how man behaves and specifically uses

human information collectors to look and gauge behavior. The methods used were

journal curation. The researchers used a hand search method in place of Boolean

search. Three different sources to curate a list of ABA journals were incorporated in

their bid to conduct a hand search. A two-step process was used in the study selection.

The first study selection was that authors collected articles from journals. Secondly,

the analysts investigated all the reports to decide whether the data-based inquires met

a given number of standards. Furthermore, the researchers coded the information in

the given analysis. The participants were gotten from three categories of individuals;

volunteer students, nonhuman, and members from the community. Data was collected

using the apparatus that was intended for the purpose. The results indicated that the

usage of automated data-collection apparatus had not increased within the field of

ABA since the review.
