Using data from the Midlife Development in the United States-II (n = 4,028) and Refresher (n = 2,586) cohorts, we assessed the dimensionality, replicability, measurement invariance, and validity of a hierarchical model. Results support measurement invariance across demographic groups and demonstrate the model's convergent and predictive validity. Cumulative social advantage was associated with lower multimorbidity (β = -.17 [-.22, -.13], p < .001), reduced adiposity (β = -.12 [-.16, -.08], p < .001), fewer difficulties with moderate (β = -.18 [-.22, -.14], p < .001) and basic activities of daily living (β = -.20 [-.24, -.16], p < .001), and a decreased hazard rate for all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.67 [0.47, 0.95], p < .001), with a standard deviation increase in cumulative social advantage predicting a 33% reduction in the hazard rate. The ameliorative influence of cumulative social advantage was consistent across sex, race, and education. These findings highlight the complex relationship between social connections and critical health outcomes, emphasizing the importance of considering cumulative social advantage as a potential explanation for understanding individual differences in health across the lifespan.

Defined by international and U.S. frameworks, trafficking involves the exploitation of individuals through fraud, force, or coercion for purposes such as labor, sexual exploitation, or organ harvesting. Psychology provides a unique lens to understand, prevent, and address this issue by examining the underlying psychological mechanisms used by traffickers and the profound effects on survivors. Traffickers leverage psychological manipulation-grooming, coercion, and trauma bonding-to control victims, while survivors endure severe mental health consequences, including posttraumatic stress disorder, complex trauma, depression, and anxiety. Psychologists play a pivotal role in combating trafficking through research, education, advocacy, and clinical practice. Research informs prevention by identifying vulnerabilities and effective interventions. Education raises public awareness and equips professionals to recognize and support victims. Advocacy shapes policies that uphold human rights and strengthen antitrafficking laws. Clinicians provide essential trauma- and trafficking-informed care tailored to survivors, utilizing evidence-based practices and adjunctive psychological interventions that foster healing and resilience while addressing immediate and long-term impacts. In conclusion, psychology is integral to eradicating human trafficking. By bridging research, practice, and policy, psychology contributes significantly to global antitrafficking efforts, ensuring a lasting impact on addressing this pervasive human rights violation.

Without a critical lens and intentional decolonization efforts, well-intentioned practices can inadvertently reimpose colonial power dynamics in mental health care. This article critiques the implicit universality of Western ethical standards and proposes a culturally responsive ethical framework tailored to majority world contexts. Key principles include cultural contextualization, relational ethics, social justice advocacy, integration of Indigenous practices, and reflective practice. Through a detailed case study adapted from a real-life event, the article illustrates the application of this framework for therapists in navigating complex dilemmas that arise at the intersection of cultural dissonance, systemic inequities, and global power dynamics. Recommendations for training programs are provided, emphasizing the integration of international competence, decolonial approaches, and community-based learning to better prepare therapists for culturally attuned and ethically sound practice.

This article offers a novel, sweeping, historical analysis with important implications for psychological theory. The story begins with identifying the first question in Ancient Greek philosophy as \"Where am I?\" with particular interest in the world's overarching basic traits. For example, Pythagoras proposed the world was defined by beauty and Heraclitus suggested change. Though this discourse has traditionally puzzled historians, recent psychological research suggests it might have been largely a debate over primal world beliefs, an emerging research topic that this article introduces and situates historically. Recently, the latent structure of primal world beliefs was mapped statistically, revealing 26 dimensions. Most of these beliefs were new to psychologists, yet already posed by ancient philosophers-including Pythagoras' Beautiful world belief and Heraclitus' Changing world belief. Identifying first questions in early history may have value for psychological theorizing because it hints at something that social psychologists have long suspected: that humans are creatures fundamentally driven to understand their situation and what it calls for.

In the present article, we use ideas derived from debates in theoretical and philosophical psychology as a basis for responding to all three crises. In short, we claim that psychological concepts are inherently vague in the sense that their meanings and the rules for their application are indeterminate. This does not imply that psychological concepts are ineffable or lack meaning. It implies, however, that hoping to arrive at a finite set of necessary and sufficient criteria that define psychological concepts once and for all is an illusion. From this, we deduce four recommendations for responding to psychology's crises. First, we argue that the replication crisis could be approached by paying more attention to the context conditions under which psychological realities and knowledge about these realities are being created. Second, we claim that the universality crisis can be alleviated by putting more effort into exploring variability across times and cultures. Third, we contend that acknowledging the language dependence of psychological research could be a fruitful way of addressing the theory crisis. Last, we show that embracing theoretical and methodological pluralism would be an antidote against psychology's crises in general.
