To manage this risk, individuals must not only be vigilant against dishonest informants but also monitor others' vigilance towards deception, especially when information is transmitted across social chains. The present study investigates children's vigilance towards dishonesty ('first-order vigilance'), as well as their ability to monitor others' vigilance and to make trust decisions accordingly ('second-order vigilance'). Children aged four to seven years completed three tasks assessing first-order vigilance towards dishonest informants and three tasks using a novel second-order vigilance paradigm, measuring their tendency to trust informants who had previously shown vigilance or gullibility towards deception. Our findings show that children's first-order vigilance towards dishonesty improves between the ages of four and seven, and is modulated by how deceptive informants are characterised. Children are less likely to trust informants described as lying or having antisocial intentions (epistemic and intentional dimensions of deception) than those described simply as mean (moral dimension of deception). Furthermore, from the age of four to five, children are more likely to trust an informant who has previously demonstrated vigilance towards dishonesty than one who has shown gullibility, based on observational evidence of their past trust towards a dishonest source. These findings shed light on children's emerging sensitivity to the social history of communicated information and point to the role of second-order vigilance mechanisms in mitigating the risk of misinformation through transmission.","PeriodicalId":7141,"journal":{"name":"Acta Psychologica","volume":"265 ","pages":"106497"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147462597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As GenAI increasingly influences EFL instruction, uncertainties surrounding teachers' professional roles intensify. Meanwhile, the limited availability of practical teaching internships in China compels pre-service teachers to independently cultivate essential skills, rendering self-regulated teaching pivotal. Drawing on the Conservation of Resources (COR) theory, we examined the interplay among academic resilience, cognitive appraisals (challenge versus hindrance), and self-regulated teaching. Employing Covariance-Based Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM), we analyzed data from 517 participants across six universities in three Chinese provinces. Findings revealed that academic resilience significantly predicted self-regulated teaching, with challenge appraisals mediating this relationship, suggesting that resilience facilitates a growth-oriented interpretation of stress. While resilience was linked to reduced hindrance appraisal, this pathway did not significantly influence self-regulated teaching. Age was associated with more positive cognitive framing (older participants reported higher challenge appraisals), but had no direct effect on self-regulated teaching; gender showed no significant impact. These insights underscore the value of fostering academic resilience and challenge-based cognitive strategies to better prepare pre-service EFL teachers for the dual demands of technological transformation and institutional constraint.","PeriodicalId":7141,"journal":{"name":"Acta Psychologica","volume":"265 ","pages":"106747"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147571684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sensorimotor models propose that perception of facial expressions may engage neural circuits involved in their generation. Disruption of facial motor circuits has been shown to compromise emotion perception, although the precise mechanisms remain unclear.Methods: Twenty individuals with blepharospasm (PTS) and 20 age-, sex-, and education-matched healthy controls (CON) completed two emotion recognition tasks: an eye-based task (Baron-Cohen task; BC) and a body-based task (BEAST).Results: A significant Task × Group interaction (F(1, 38) =7.38, p = .010) and a higher BEAST/BC performance ratio in patients (1.30 vs. 1.01; p = .006) indicated a selective impairment in recognizing emotions from the eyes, while recognition from body language remained intact.Conclusions: This study demonstrates a selective impairment in emotion recognition through the eyes in individuals with blepharospasm, linking motor dysfunction in a specific facial region to deficits in perceiving emotional cues conveyed by that same region in others. These findings underscore the role of facial motor circuits in emotion perception and offer new insights into the embodied neural mechanisms underlying affect recognition.","PeriodicalId":7141,"journal":{"name":"Acta Psychologica","volume":"265 ","pages":"106751"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147589459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on institutional theory, boundary-spanning theory, and social cognitive theory, this study examines how creator characteristics (content transferability, cross-platform social capital, and cultural adaptability) influence engagement performance through platform adaptation self-efficacy (PSE) and cross-cultural identity navigation (CN), as well as the moderating role of digital pioneer status. Survey data from 219 international creators who migrated from TikTok to China's RedNote platform reveal that content transferability and cross-platform social capital significantly enhance both PSE and CN, which in turn positively predict engagement performance; and that PSE and CN are critical pathways linking creator resources to performance. Moreover, digital pioneer status strengthens the impact of PSE on engagement. These findings demonstrate cognitive and relational pathways of adaptation, extend studies assuming universal role of cultural adaptability, and shed practical insights for creators and platforms navigating an increasingly fragmented digital ecosystem.","PeriodicalId":7141,"journal":{"name":"Acta Psychologica","volume":"266 ","pages":"106897"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147809386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these programs have primarily been implemented with adults, and few studies have demonstrated the efficacy of positive psychology approaches in enhancing hope and optimism and reducing depression among adolescents. Such programs for adolescents-particularly in developing countries such as Türkiye-remain largely understudied. This study examined the efficacy of a positive psychology intervention (PPI) in reducing depression and increasing hope and optimism in adolescents with depression. A total of 137 adolescents (57 girls and 80 boys) participated in the study. Of these, 26 adolescents were allocated at random to each group and completed the final assessment. The study employed an experimental design, and ANOVA was performed to assess differences between test scores. The results revealed that adolescents in the experimental group had significantly lower depression scores than those in the control group. Furthermore, whereas hope and optimism significantly increased in adolescents in the experimental group, no similar change was noted in the control group. 1-month follow-up test results also yielded similar results. The findings establish the long-term efficacy of PPIs in alleviating depression and fostering hope and optimism in adolescents.","PeriodicalId":7141,"journal":{"name":"Acta Psychologica","volume":"265 ","pages":"106724"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147607786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
