“…Adolescent alcohol and marijuana use has been linked to harmful effects on physiological, social, and psychological functioning (Macleod et al 2004 ; Tucker et al 2006a , b ). This includes increased delinquency (Nation and Heflinger 2006 ; Shoal et al 2007 ), aggressivity, risky sexual behaviors, hazardous driving, and comorbid substance use (Neal and Fromme 2007 ).…”

Dynamic changes in neurochemistry, fiber architecture, and tissue composition occur in the adolescent brain. The course of these maturational processes is being charted with greater specificity, owing to advances in neuroimaging and indicate grey matter volume reductions and protracted development of white matter in regions known to support complex cognition and behavior. Though fronto-subcortical circuitry development is notable during adolescence, asynchronous maturation of prefrontal and limbic systems may render youth more vulnerable to risky behaviors such as substance use. Indeed, binge-pattern alcohol consumption and comorbid marijuana use are common among adolescents, and are associated with neural consequences. This review summarizes the unique characteristics of adolescent brain development, particularly aspects that predispose individuals to reward seeking and risky choices during this phase of life, and discusses the influence of substance use on neuromaturation. Together, findings in this arena underscore the importance of refined research and programming efforts in adolescent health and interventional needs.

“…For example, sex offenders have been found to differ in their ability to appropriately recognize affect (e.g., Gery, Miljkovitch, Berthoz, & Soussignan, 2009; Suchy, Whittaker, Strassberg, & Eastvold, 2009). Negative affectivity has been associated with delinquency and adolescent alcohol use disorder (Shoal, Gudonis, Giancola, & Tarter, 2007). Because subgroups of sex offenders were observed to suffer from anxiety disorders (e.g., Leue, Borchard, & Hoyer, 2004) and because NA scores correlate with anxiety scores (e.g., Joiner & Blalock, 1995), the PANAS scores could be promising predictors differentiating sex offender subgroups and nonoffenders.…”

The Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) is a widely used inventory for the assessment of affect in psychology and other applied sciences. Despite its popularity, the structure of the PANAS is still under debate. On the one hand, there is evidence of the traditional 2-factor model with Positive Affect (PA) and Negative Affect (NA) as uncorrelated factors. On the other hand, a more complex structure of the PANAS has been discussed. To shed further light on the core dimensions of the PANAS, 2 studies investigated the structure of the PANAS in 2 German samples (N = 354 and N = 364, respectively) by means of confirmatory factor analysis. The factor analysis results of Study 1 for a traitlike time frame instruction suggested a suboptimal model fit for the uncorrelated 2-factor model and the 3-factor model with PA, Afraid, and Upset as factors, whereas a superior model fit occurred for a bifactor model with traitlike PA, NA, and a general 3rd factor named Affective Polarity. In Study 2, the bifactor model was replicated for a statelike PANAS time frame instruction and evidence of criterion validity was provided for PA, NA, and Affective Polarity factors in 2 sex offender subgroups and in a community sample. With Affective Polarity, we introduce an affect dimension that captures additional variance beyond PA and NA. Because of the adjectives with relevant loadings on Affective Polarity, this general factor represents an individual's orientation toward approach and withdrawal, respectively.

“…Therefore, the high level of belief in a just world may better motivate teenage students to change their maladaptive cognition. While their resources are not enough to change the reality, the negative behaviors are more likely to be chosen ( Shoal et al, 2007 ; Bao et al, 2016 ).…”

BackgroundIn recent years, teenage students’ internet gaming disorder has raised widespread concern in the society. The current study aims to explore how perceptions of school climate, maladaptive cognition, and belief in a just world impact teenage students’ internet gaming disorder and seek the suitable intervention to prevent teenage students’ internet gaming disorder tendency.MethodsA total of 1,164 teenage students (age: 19.62 ± 3.14 years) were evaluated using the Perceived School Climate Scale (PSCS), Maladaptive Cognition Scale (MCS), Belief in a Just World Scale (BJWS), and Internet Gaming Disorder Scale (IGDS).Results(1) Perceptions of school climate could predict teenage students’ internet gaming disorder [β = –0.15, p < 0.001, 95% CI = (–0.20, –0.11)]. (2) Teenage students’ maladaptive cognition exerts a partial mediating effect between their perceptions of school climate and internet gaming disorder [ab = –0.13, boot SE = 0.01, 95% CI = (–0.16, –0.11)]. (3) The direct effect of perceptions of school climate on internet gaming disorder [β = –0.07, p < 0.01, 95% CI = (–0.11, –0.02)], the first half of the mediation model “perceptions of school climate → maladaptive cognition” [β = –0.08, p < 0.01, 95% CI = (–0.12, –0.03)], and the second half of the mediation model “maladaptive cognition → internet gaming disorder” [β = 0.10, p < 0.001, 95% CI = (0.06, 0.14)] are all moderated reciprocally by teenage students’ belief in a just world.ConclusionSchools should create a good climate and shape belief in a just world to reduce the maladaptive cognition of teenagers, to effectively prevent teenage students’ internet gaming disorder tendency.
