Adopting quantitative research methods, this study delved into the intergenerational trauma transmission from grandmothers to their adult daughters, and subsequently to their grandchildren in their care among migrant skipped-generation households in Cambodia. The study included 128 grandmothers, 41 daughters, and 45 grandchildren. The paired subsamples comprised of 41 grandmother-daughter pairs and 39 grandmother-grandchild pairs. Survey interviews were administered to collect data on the trauma experiences and symptoms, psychological distress, and parenting style using standardized instruments. The data were analyzed using mediation analysis, linear regression models, and Pearson correlation. Findings showed the mediating role of role-reversing parenting in the relationship between the grandmothers' trauma symptoms and their daughters' depression; however, such support was not evident in the third generation, suggesting the indirect effect of trauma transmission was more pronounced in the second generation compared to the third. Nevertheless, the direct effect of associations between grandmothers' trauma symptoms and grandchildren's depression was significant. These findings on secondary traumatization linked to grandmothers' Khmer Rouge trauma in the second and skipped-generational effects provide a broader societal implication for the intergenerational trauma among Cambodian families.

However, most research focused on specific parenting features or on maternal and child behaviors separately, which may not be representative of the quality of their relationship as a whole. The aim of this study was to identify patterns of dyadic emotional availability and their association with different risk factors in the context of maternal SUD. The study involved 77 mothers with SUD (<i>M</i>_age = 28.55 years, <i>SD</i> = 6.41) and their children (47% male, <i>M</i>_age = 12.47 months, <i>SD</i> = 15.04) receiving residential intervention services. At the time of admission, sociodemographic risk factors and maternal psychopathology were assessed through, respectively, an ad-hoc interview and the Symptom Checklist 90-Revised. Mother-child interactions were rated during free-play using the Emotional Availability Scales. Cluster analysis was used to identify potentially different patterns of interactions. Four patterns were identified: \"low-functioning dyads,\" \"inconsistent dyads,\" \"inconsistent mother with low functioning child,\" and \"high functioning dyads,\" where functioning refers to the level of interactive functioning, that is, the quality of interactive behaviors and the degree of emotional availability. These patterns presented differences with respect to some individual (children's age), clinical (prenatal drug exposure) and psychopathological (depression) variables.

While previous studies have identified resilience as a potential protective factor, less is known about the role of resilience in protecting parents from the negative impact caused by the pandemic. Using a two-wave cross-lagged panel design, the present study aimed to examine how the daily functioning of parents was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and investigate the mediating role of functional impairment on the associations of perceived resilience with mental well-being and self-rated health. A total of 129 parents in Hong Kong completed the questionnaire on perceived resilience, functional impairment, mental well-being, and self-rated health twice at a 1-month interval. The results showed that perceived resilience was negatively associated with functional impairment across time. The cross-lagged effect of functional impairment on mental well-being was also found. Furthermore, functional impairment mediated the relationship between perceived resilience and mental well-being. This suggests that parents who reported higher resilience were likely to maintain their mental well-being during the COVID-19 outbreak, as their ability to perform everyday tasks and activities was less disrupted by pandemic-related challenges. The findings highlight the protective role of perceived resilience over time during the pandemic and underscore the importance of resilience-building interventions for parents, especially during challenging times when resources to cope with stress are limited.

Fourteen studies met the criteria: original peer-reviewed journal articles, written or translated into English, conducted in the United States, and described exclusively as Photovoice with at least 50% of participants meeting the diagnostic criteria for severe mental illnesses, internalizing disorders, or substance use disorders. Participant social identities (race and ethnicity, economic position, gender), psychiatric diagnoses, and policy-related steps were documented. Results revealed that schizophrenia spectrum disorders were most represented in Photovoice (33.33%), whereas most substance-related and addictive (11.51%), depressive (13.49%), bipolar (8.33%), anxiety (4.76%), and trauma or stressor disorders (3.57%) were less studied. Obsessive-compulsive and related disorders were not represented. Major U.S. census-defined minoritized racial and ethnic groups were nearly, if not entirely, absent. An ethics and social-justice approach to collecting and reporting thorough demographic data (Call et al., 2023) was also lacking. Nearly three quarters of studies initiated the action and advocacy component of Photovoice to mobilize collective change, though what happened next regarding policy outcomes was not well-examined. Results also revealed the emergence of augmented Photovoice (28.5%), which supplemented or integrated Photovoice with behavioral or therapeutic interventions. This study illuminates significant disparities in participant representation, points the field toward a post-Photovoice examination, and provides recommendations for leveraging augmented Photovoice among all three tiers of a public mental health model.

The present study aimed to extend the literature by examining the mediating role of psychological armoring (a culturally tailored frame for Acceptance and Commitment Therapy's psychological inflexibility model) as a coping response in the connection between gendered racism and trauma symptoms from discrimination among a community sample of 187 Black American women. We introduced the concept of disparity in social support roles (DSSR; e.g., giving more support than receiving) to assess the impact of this factor on perceived low social support and evaluated the moderating role of satisfaction with balance of social support roles (SBSSR) in the gendered racism to disengagement coping link. Results revealed that psychological armoring partially mediated the relationship between gendered racism and trauma symptoms from discrimination. While there was no moderating support for DSSR, giving more support than receiving predicted low social support satisfaction, and decreased SBSSR was related to higher psychological armoring, psychological distress, and trauma symptoms from discrimination. Our results expand upon empirical research that connects gendered racism to adverse psychological outcomes and lends support to psychological armoring and DSSR as malleable mechanisms that can be targeted for wellness-promoting interventions.

In a qualitative-phenomenological study involving 22 older adult participants, data were collected via semistructured, in-depth interviews and subsequently analyzed through content analysis. Three major themes emerged from the data analysis: (1) the supportive dimension-the social support element of belonging to a group, the group as a safe place; (2) the values dimension-values of relational rather than aesthetic artistic expression, values of voice expression; and (3) the dimension of opening new opportunities-photographs as enhancing and enriching group communication, as well as Zoom enabling closeness, and relationships that continued after the program. The Zoom-based photovoice intervention emerged as an exceptionally accessible and cost-efficient method for mitigating loneliness, even with the challenges of managing digital communication.

We assessed for ACEs, domains of social support, depression, and anxiety. Ordinary least square regression models tested the main effects of ACEs and social support on depression and anxiety symptoms. We then performed moderation analyses to test if high levels of social support subtypes weakened the relationship between ACEs, depression, and anxiety. Participants were mostly cisgender women (59.6%), \"Mexican, Mexican American, or Chicano\" (61%), and second generation (84.1%). Participants' mean age was 24.39 (<i>SD</i> = 3.069). Main effects models showed that ACEs were positively associated with depression; social support subtypes were negatively associated with depression. The social support total and tangible support scales moderated the relationship between ACEs and depression. The main effects models showed total social support, emotional/informational, and social companionship association with anxiety were negative. Social support total, tangible, social companionship, and affectionate support moderated the relationship between ACEs and anxiety symptoms. Across all moderations, tangible support explained most of the variance; specifically, the effect of tangible support on depression/anxiety lessened when people experienced greater ACEs.
