Resource Control Theory suggests that adolescents strategically deploy aggressive and prosocial behaviors in response to perceived changes in social status.

Absenteeism is common in group psychotherapy and has the potential to negatively affect group processes and outcomes.

School bullying is not merely a random event but rather involves intricate power dynamics in each bullying event. However, less is known about whether this power asymmetry could lead to different spatial patterns of bullying within the school environment, contributing to distinct perceptions of the usage of social spaces within the school context defined by bullies and victims. Further, it remains

The ubiquitous use of information and communication technologies among adolescents carries the risk of exposure to online victimization during this vulnerable stage of development, including cybergrooming as a form of sexual victimization.

Racial discrimination is a pervasive public health issue among racial/ethnic minorities, especially given its associations with psychological outcomes (Carter et al., 2019; Shi et al., 2022). However, according to Lazarus and Folkman's (1984) stress and coping theory, not all individuals develop mental health issues depending on the ways in which people cope with stressors.

Antiracism advocacy has been identified as a culturally relevant form of self- and community care that allows racially/ethnically minoritized individuals to persist, heal, and resist systems of oppression in the United States. Despite the benefits, recent research has found that engaging in antiracism advocacy may be emotionally draining and exhausting. It is important to examine factors that can contextualize

One important debate about self-compassion is whether it should be conceptualized as one general construct or two separate constructs: compassionate self-responding (CS) and uncompassionate self-responding (UCS). However, our understanding of self-compassion has been restricted to examining it as a trait-like construct assessed at a single time point, thus limiting our understanding of potentially

Gender expression is important for mental health, with masculinity and femininity having differential significance for unique adolescents.

Given the detrimental effects of school bullying, it is essential that teachers are provided with effective guidelines on how to implement targeted interventions if a case of bullying comes to their attention. Yet to date, most research has focused on how bullying can be prevented, rather than how it should be intervened upon. To address this gap, the current study compared the short- and longer-term

According to the U.S. Census Bureau (2020), over 1.5 million people identify as Pacific Islander, which establishes this group as one of the fastest growing cultural groups in the United States. However, this population remains underrepresented in discussions about mental health (Borrero et al., 2012) despite their overrepresentation in unaddressed mental health concerns (Seaton et al., 2019). Within
