Article Abstract
The present study explored the role of parents' in-session and out-session involvement in CBT for anxious children. Fifty 8- to 12-year-old children with a principal DSM-IV anxiety disorder participated in a group CBT program. Parental involvement in the therapy was assessed by the clinician and the children and parents completed a standardized anxiety scale as the main therapy outcome measure, at pre- and post-intervention. In addition, the parents completed questionnaires to evaluate a number of possible correlates of parental involvement, namely, child's anxiety symptoms intensity and interference, parental beliefs about anxiety, expectancies regarding the efficacy of the intervention, and parental anxiety. The results indicated that the parents were moderately involved in the therapy and that socio-economic status and parental beliefs about anxiety were significant correlates of parental involvement. Finally, partial support was found for the idea that parents' involvement in the therapy might have a positive impact on therapy outcome.

This study investigated how autism impacts the relationships between family members and the family unit. It aimed to provide a deeper qualitative understanding by incorporating the perspectives of autistic adolescents and their family members, adding depth to existing quantitative findings. This qualitative study involved audio-recorded semi-structured in-depth interviews with 40 participants, including mothers, fathers, siblings, and autistic adolescents, recruited through autism and disability agencies in Canberra, Australia.

In the United States, approximately 20 million individuals, age 12 and older, have a substance use disorder (SUD), with an average age of first-time use at 13 years old. Evidence has shown that many SUDs begin in adolescence, and involvement with the legal system can ensue. Adolescents with first-time drug and alcohol arrests can be referred to an Adolescent Intervention Program (AIP) as an alternative to jailtime from the juvenile court system.

Background: The increasing rate of cesarean section births is a global concern, including in Tanzania, where cesarean section births account for 11% of live births. Following a cesarean section, mothers are commonly discharged early to reduce ward congestion; as a result, they are required to receive care at home. However, evidence indicates that mothers receive limited or no information on post-cesarean section home care, which increases the risk of complications.

Heterosis refers to the superior performance of hybrids over their parents (inbred lines) in one or more characteristics. Hence, understanding this process is crucial for addressing food insecurity. This review explores the traditional genetic models proposed to explain heterosis and integrates them with emerging perspectives such as epigenetic studies and multi-omics approaches which are increasingly used to investigate the molecular basis of heterosis in plants.
