An evening chronotype has been associated with elevated body mass index and a less nutritious diet. However, the mechanisms underpinning the relationship between chronotype and body mass index remain unclear. The aim of the current study was to investigate if chronotype is indirectly associated with body mass index via emotion regulation strategy use and emotional eating.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Method&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;Participants completed the Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire to assess chronotype, the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire to assess habitual emotion regulation strategy use, the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale to assess mental well-being, and the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire to provide a measure of emotional eating. Participants reported their weight and height to allow body mass index to be calculated.

In contrast, individuals with a morning chronotype reported more frequent use of cognitive reappraisal, which was associated with reduced emotional eating and a lower body mass index (&lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; = 0.003).

For Latinx populations, anti-immigrant sentiment and targeted political rhetoric have also been on the rise. Due to this context, it is important to understand the detrimental impact such experiences can have on mental health outcomes such as anger, anxiety, depression, and dissociation. The aim of this study is to better understand the role of bias victimization on mental health outcomes among the Latinx community using self-reported survey data. This analysis consists of 910 Latinx adults from Boston, San Diego, and Houston who were recruited through partnerships with community agencies and self-selection during local Latinx-focused events in 2018-2019. This methodology was essential to capturing the lived experiences of traditionally hard-to-reach populations. The survey asked participants to report any experiences with hate crime, bias-motivated victimization, and general experiences with victimization unrelated to their identity in their lifetime and within the past year. Notably, about half of the sample reported experiencing a bias victimization in their lifetime. Using sequential regressions and tests of mediation, we find that the association between bias victimization and mental health was influenced by acculturative stress. The results of this study highlight the harmful consequences that bias victimization and racial trauma bring. Bias victimization, ranging from everyday microaggressions to hate crimes, as well as the level of acculturative stress, subsequently negatively affects the mental health of Latinx adults. This study provides important evidence regarding the harm incurred from bias-motivated incidents and the detrimental impact it has on the lives of those who experience them.","PeriodicalId":16289,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Interpersonal Violence","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143920124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To answer these questions, we asked participants to view two words and categorize only one (single-task) or both words (dual-task), using Korean word pairs that frequently co-occur and are semantically related. We hypothesized that the coactivation of related words could facilitate lexical processing, and that the unique characteristics of Korean Hangul, such as its shallow orthographic depth and clear-cut syllabic boundaries, would enhance this effect. The results suggest that Korean Hangul is more robust to a serial processing bottleneck. Unlike the previous findings in English, independent or unrelated Korean word pairs were not processed in a strictly serial manner. Furthermore, the results for co-occurring and semantically related words supported the parallel processing model. Interestingly, for regularly co-occurring words, accuracy for one word increased if the participant was also correct about the other.
