This study examined the effects of a domain-specific chatbot on performance, perception, and cognitive engagement among medical students.Methods: Twenty first-year medical students completed two academic tasks using either a custom-built educational chatbot (Lenny AI by qVault) or conventional study methods in a randomised, crossover design. Performance was assessed through Single Best Answer (SBA) questions, while post-task surveys (Likert scales) and focus groups were employed to explore user perceptions. Statistical tests compared performance and perception metrics; qualitative data underwent thematic analysis with independent coding (κ = 0.403-0.633).Results: Participants rated the chatbot significantly higher than conventional resources for ease of use, satisfaction, engagement, perceived quality, and clarity (p < 0.05). Lenny AI use was positively correlated with perceived efficiency and confidence, but showed no significant performance gains. Thematic analysis revealed accelerated factual retrieval but limited support for higher-level cognitive reasoning. Students expressed high functional trust but raised concerns about transparency.Conclusions: The custom chatbot improved usability; effects on deeper learning were not detected within the tasks studied. Future designs should support adaptive scaffolding, transparent sourcing, and critical engagement to improve educational value.","PeriodicalId":8742,"journal":{"name":"Behavioral Sciences","volume":"15 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12467370/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145172761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the integration into the labor market frequently involves adversities such as professional devaluation, precarious working conditions, and experiences of social exclusion. This qualitative study aims to explore the work experiences of Brazilian immigrants in Portugal, with a special focus on how community support and collective resilience shape their ability to cope with adversity. Based on minority stress theory and intersectionality, we conducted 24 semi-structured interviews with Brazilian immigrants from diverse professional backgrounds. Thematic analysis revealed four main themes: (1) precarious integration into the labor market and underemployment, (2) experiences of xenophobia, racism, and discrimination, (3) mental health challenges and emotional exhaustion, and (4) community support and collective resilience. Participants emphasized the importance of informal solidarity networks to overcome institutional barriers and maintain emotional well-being. These results suggest that resilience is not only an individual resource, but a relational process rooted in everyday acts of care and connection. The study highlights the protective role of community in contexts of structural vulnerability and contributes to current discussions on migrant integration and well-being.","PeriodicalId":8742,"journal":{"name":"Behavioral Sciences","volume":"15 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12467796/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145172748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Subgroup, sensitivity, and meta-regression analyses were conducted to explore potential heterogeneity. The results demonstrated that exercise (SMD = -0.74, 95% CI: -0.91, -0.58; p < 0.00001) was more effective than control groups in reducing drug craving among people with drug use disorder. Subgroup analyses demonstrated that aerobic (SMD = -0.79, 95% CI: -1.03, -0.54; p < 0.00001), multi-component (SMD = -0.96, 95% CI: -1.73, -0.18; p = 0.02), and mind-body exercise (SMD = -0.57, 95% CI: -0.88, -0.26; p = 0.0003) could significantly reduce drug craving, while resistance exercise (SMD = -0.59, 95% CI: -1.33, 0.16; p = 0.12) could not. Moreover, moderate (SMD = -0.77, 95% CI: -0.95, -0.58; p < 0.00001) and high-intensity exercise (SMD = -0.63, 95% CI: -1.08, -0.19; p = 0.006) were effective in reducing drug craving.

Specifically, student participants (Belgian sample: N = 368; Dutch sample: N = 236) and jury-eligible Belgian participants (N = 75) read a vignette about an aggravated assault with circumstantial evidence and a defendant who denied committing the alleged offense. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three vignettes: one without risk information, one describing a low risk of recidivism, and one describing a high risk of recidivism. We found no direct or indirect effect of risk on the proportion of guilty verdicts or on the evaluation of the evidence. We did find that participants who read that the defendant was low risk evaluated the innocence claim as being more credible, compared to those who were given high-risk information or no risk information. Moreover, higher credibility ratings were associated with a higher likelihood of a not-guilty verdict. While preliminary, these findings suggest recidivism risk information may influence fact finding, and merit replication, especially with judges.","PeriodicalId":8742,"journal":{"name":"Behavioral Sciences","volume":"15 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12467575/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145172863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current debates center on whether different components of selection history influence attention through shared learning-dependent mechanisms or via independent mechanisms. Recent research suggests that aversive associative learning and statistical learning, two key components of selection history, modulate attentional selection independently. The present study investigates how these two components influence attentional selection under different search strategies. In Experiment 1, participants engaged in a singleton detection task, searching for a unique shape singleton while ignoring an irrelevant color singleton. In Experiment 2, they employed a feature search strategy, targeting a predefined attribute among varied shapes while disregarding a distracting color singleton. Results showed that under the singleton detection mode, two learning processes exert independent effects on attentional selection toward salient distractors. Conversely, under the feature search mode, the two learning processes interacted, with the interaction primarily driven by aversive associative learning. These findings highlight the critical role of search strategies in modulating how selection history affects attentional processes. They offer new insights into the mechanisms of attentional selection and the interplay between different forms of learning in complex visual search environments.","PeriodicalId":8742,"journal":{"name":"Behavioral Sciences","volume":"15 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12467275/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145172597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prior research on nomophobia has predominantly adopted a variable-centered perspective. However, if nomophobia is heterogeneous across subgroups, acknowledging this heterogeneity may inform the advancement of more tailored and productive therapeutic methods. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was conducted separately among high school students (N = 446) and college students (N = 667) to identify potential subgroup heterogeneity in nomophobia. To examine cross-group similarities in nomophobia profiles, a multi-group LPA was employed. Based on multiple model fit criteria, a three-profile solution-high nomophobia, moderate nomophobia, and low nomophobia-was identified for both groups. However, the multi-group LPA provided only partial support for the similarity of nomophobia profiles across educational stages, specifically in terms of configural and dispersion similarity. While similar nomophobia profiles emerged across groups, the partial equivalence suggests that intervention strategies for nomophobia may not be universally applicable across different educational levels. Additional studies should investigate the mechanisms underlying students' nomophobia profiles and to inform differentiated interventions for educators, institutions, and policymakers.","PeriodicalId":8742,"journal":{"name":"Behavioral Sciences","volume":"15 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12467825/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145173004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Perceived freedom strongly predicted leisure satisfaction, accounting for 42% of the variance. Gender-based comparisons showed that female students reported significantly higher levels of both perceived freedom and satisfaction. Students who engaged in active, group-based leisure activities, especially in outdoor settings, experienced the highest levels of freedom and satisfaction.
