Psychological resilience refers to the capacity to withstand or recover from stress. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the effects of meditation-only interventions on resilience in university students compared with active and passive controls and examined whether effects varied by meditation style, intervention intensity, delivery mode or follow-up length. A literature search of MEDLINE, PsycINFO and Web of Science identified randomised controlled trials involving university students who participated in meditation-only interventions and reported resilience-related outcomes. Pairwise random-effects models, mixed-effects meta-regression and network meta-analysis were used to estimate standardised mean differences (SMDs) at postintervention. Eighty-eight studies with 8728 participants were included. The overall effect was -0.11 (95% CI = -0.63 to 0.41, I2 = 59%) for resilience scales, 0.27 (95% CI = 0.20-0.35, I2 = 40%) for resilience-related mental health outcomes and 0.54 (95% CI = 0.34-0.73, I2 = 76%) for resilience factors. These findings suggest that meditation-only interventions may improve resilience-related mental health outcomes and resilience factors, but evidence for direct effects on resilience scales remains limited. Interpretation is constrained by heterogeneity and limited power in moderation analyses.","PeriodicalId":8127,"journal":{"name":"Applied psychology.

Changing social norm perceptions through textual and physical social norm communications can be a promising approach to changing behavior. Past studies, however, primarily relied on controlled (lab) experiments, leaving it unanswered to what extent these norm communications relate to social norm perceptions in a complex context. The present study addresses this issue for meat substitute purchases: to what extent can a social norm intervention in real-world supermarkets stimulate meat substitute purchases, and to what extent do social norm perceptions favoring meat substitute purchases mediate this relationship? A 13-week social norm intervention was implemented in three experimental supermarkets (with n = 3 matched control stores). Social norms were communicated textually on stickers and banners in the meat aisle and physically through increased shelf space for meat substitutes and island shelves with legumes. A total of N = 639 participants (n = 327 control) completed a survey upon exiting the supermarket, measuring social norm perceptions and collecting receipts to measure meat substitute purchases in grams. Results show that the likelihood of meat substitute purchases was OR = 3.6 times larger in intervention supermarkets (B = 1.28, SE = 0.512, z = 2.50, p = .012) than in control stores. However, their norm perceptions did not differ between intervention and control stores. In sum, a social normative intervention in a complex surrounding may impact purchasing behavior, but the mechanism driving this remains to be identified.","PeriodicalId":8127,"journal":{"name":"Applied psychology.

We also tested whether affective valence during exercise and post-exercise enjoyment predicted these outcomes. Ninety-seven insufficiently active adults in the intention or preparation stage of exercise behavior were randomly assigned to mindfulness, distraction, or control conditions. Participants engaged in low- to moderate-intensity exercise two to three times per week for four weeks while receiving a guided mindfulness audio, a neutral podcast, or no audio, respectively. Affective valence, post-exercise enjoyment, exercise intention, and exercise behavior were assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and one-month follow-up. Linear mixed-effects models showed that mindfulness was associated with higher affective valence than distraction and control, and higher enjoyment and exercise intention than distraction, with smaller or nonsignificant differences relative to control. Exercise behavior increased at post-intervention and declined at follow-up, while remaining above baseline. Mediation analyses indicated that post-exercise enjoyment, but not affective valence, significantly mediated the intervention's effect on exercise intention. Findings suggest that mindfulness during exercise enhances affective experiences and exercise intention, which may support engagement in physical activity. However, behavior changes were not sustained at follow-up, underscoring the need for strategies that maintain long-term effects.","PeriodicalId":8127,"journal":{"name":"Applied psychology.

A total of 114 adults reported these variables three times per day for 10 days. We estimated contemporaneous, temporal, and between-person networks using a multilevel vector autoregressive (mlVAR) model and identified communities via exploratory graph analysis. In the contemporaneous network, momentary engagement was positively associated with momentary happiness and meaning, and momentary perceived effort was positively associated with momentary emotional distress. Valued action aspects were positively interrelated and clustered together. Temporally, awareness predicted subsequent meaning, which in turn predicted lower emotional distress and higher happiness. At the between-person level, higher average engagement in valued actions clustered with higher average happiness and meaning, whereas higher average perceived effort and greater awareness clustered with higher emotional distress.

Participants completed daily tasks through a mobile app objectively measuring everyday function then shared their feedback through a semi-structured interview. Our thematic analysis found that interest and confidence in utilizing this technology was connected to beliefs around the value of having real-time information about one's cognitive performance, experiences with healthcare providers, and trust in technology security and accuracy. Additionally, some adults have not thought critically about the role of these technologies in their healthcare. As health-tracking technology expands in cognitive healthcare, researchers and practitioners must be aware of midlife and older adults' perceptions and educate users on its potential function.","PeriodicalId":8127,"journal":{"name":"Applied psychology.

Results supported the hypothesis of positive AI-mediated co-experience, albeit weaker than human, with co-singing/co-running anticipated to reduce loneliness more than co-diagnosing. In Experiment 2 (N = 60), we tested actual co-singing, manipulating partner type (human/AI) and mode (physical/virtual). Replicating core measures, co-singing with an AI partner significantly reduced loneliness, supporting its efficacy. Notably, human co-singing enhanced social presence and empathy more in physical than virtual mode, whereas AI's efficacy was unaffected by mode.

This study examined whether emotion dysregulation mediated the relation between childhood trauma and loneliness in adolescents, and whether parasympathetic functioning-indexed by baseline respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) and RSA suppression to a social stress task-moderated the relation. Participants were 245 Chinese adolescents (Mage = 12.91 years, SDage = 0.69 years, 46.12% male). They completed self-report questionnaires on childhood trauma, emotion dysregulation and loneliness. They also completed a public speech task designed to elicit social stress, during which their physiological data were collected. The results demonstrated that childhood trauma was positively related to adolescent loneliness, and emotion dysregulation partially mediated this relation. Moreover, parasympathetic functioning moderated the mediation model, such that the indirect association between childhood trauma and loneliness through emotion dysregulation was significant only among adolescents with lower baseline RSA and blunted social stress RSA suppression. The findings suggest that parasympathetic functioning as indicated by higher baseline RSA and greater RSA suppression in response to social stress may serve as risk-buffering physiological markers, potentially ameliorating emotion dysregulation linked to childhood trauma, which in turn is associated with increased loneliness in adolescents.","PeriodicalId":8127,"journal":{"name":"Applied psychology.

Becoming a sustainable citizen involves awareness, responsibility, and a commitment to long-term thinking-qualities that rely heavily on self-control. Although self-control is a limited resource, it can be trained and applied across various domains, contributing to healthier lifestyles and reduced environmental impact. Yet, this ideal faces strong resistance in societies that prioritize immediate gratification, consumerism, and comfort. Bridging the gap between sustainable intentions and actual behavior requires supportive social, educational, and institutional frameworks as proposed by the conceptual model of the two-way dynamics of sustainable citizenship. By fostering environments that make self-discipline easier and more meaningful, individual actions can eventually lead to collective change and the redefinition of societal norms. This suggests that effective sustainability policies should combine individual self-control interventions with structural changes that reduce the cognitive burden of pro-environmental choices.","PeriodicalId":8127,"journal":{"name":"Applied psychology.

Specifically, the study examined whether different dimensions of social support (i.e., emotional support, instrumental support, companionship, enhancement of worth, and intimacy), conceptualized as ecological assets, were related to loneliness trajectories, and whether resilience, conceptualized as a key internal strength, played a longitudinal mediating role in these associations. A three-wave longitudinal survey was conducted with 517 Chinese rural left-behind children (53.77% boys; Mage = 12.69, SDage = 1.52) over 10 months (designated as T1, T2, and T3). The results indicated that instrumental support at T1 negatively predicted the initial level of loneliness and positively predicted the decline rate of loneliness, while intimacy positively predicted the initial level of loneliness. The initial level of resilience mediated the negative associations between instrumental support and enhancement of worth at T1 with the initial level of loneliness. These findings highlight the person–context interplay in rural settings, suggesting that strengthening instrumental support and enhancement of worth, while fostering early resilience, is crucial for promoting adaptive development among left-behind children. The study advances the PYD literature by demonstrating how children's strengths can be mobilized to navigate the challenges of parental absence.","PeriodicalId":8127,"journal":{"name":"Applied psychology.
