Article Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the relations among perceived parental psychological control (PPC), autonomy and relatedness, and negative outcomes during emerging adulthood in two cultural contexts: Italy and the USA. More specifically, we explored the mechanisms through which dependency-oriented PPC (DPPC) and achievement-oriented PPC (APPC) are associated with both internalizing and externalizing difficulties, focusing on the mediating role of autonomy and relatedness. Participants were 418 European-American and 359 Italian college students. Results indicated that the expressions of PPC with regard to dependency and achievement were related to emerging adults' negative outcomes through different pathways, and these effects were moderated by the cultural group. The implications of the findings for future related empirical investigations and clinical interventions were discussed.

Citizen science enables volunteers from the public to contribute to scientific research. While citizen science may be an avenue for "democratizing" science and facilitating learning among volunteers, projects tend to attract homogeneous volunteers already highly engaged in science. The emergence of facilitator organizations such as schools, churches and corporations, that connect existing volunteer-oriented groups with citizen science, offers a potentially viable avenue through which to attract more diverse volunteers, with more to gain from their experience.

This article gives a new perspective on designing robotic applications in elderly care with a special focus on socially assistive robots and seniors' well-being. While various applications have been proposed there is currently no common conceptual model in designing interventions with social robots for seniors. Therefore, we propose a conceptual model that identifies five key domains for designing applications for socially interactive robots to enhance seniors' well-being.

Background: Social support is essential for the self-management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); no specific measure of the quality of social support has been designed and tested for people with T2DM. Having a validated questionnaire that is culturally and linguistically appropriate in this field would nurture research in this area and contribute to better patient health outcomes.
Aims: This study investigated the psychometric features of the Autonomy in Relatedness Inventory (ARI) among individuals with T2DM in Jordan.

Purpose: To explore how clusters of motivational regulations, self-determination, and basic psychological needs (BPNs) relate to physical exercise participation in women with endometriosis.
Methods: This cross-sectional online study included women aged ≥ 18 years with endometriosis. The Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire-3 (BREQ-3) was used to assess motivational regulations and the Basic Psychological Needs in Exercise Scale (BPNES) to evaluate BPNs-autonomy (sense of choice), competence (confidence in ability), and relatedness (sense of connection and belonging)-followed by a two-step cluster analysis to identify motivational profiles.
