Article Abstract
Mated pair bonds are integral to many animal societies, yet how individual variation in behaviour influences their formation remains largely unknown. In a population of wild great tits (Parus major), we show that personality shapes pair bonding: proactive males formed stronger pre-breeding pair bonds by meeting their future partners sooner and increasing their relationship strength at a faster rate. As a result, proactive males sampled fewer potential mates. Thus, personality may have important implications for social relationship dynamics and emergent social structure.

Challenging the golden mean: Testing the inverted U-shaped relationship between trait self-control and subjective well-being among Chinese adolescents.
Appl Psychol Health Well Being

School of Teacher Education, Dali University, Dali, China.
Self-control (SC) is a robust predictor of subjective well-being (SWB), and a positive linear relationship between them is often taken as the default assumption. However, some perspectives suggest that excessive SC may diminish SWB, implying an inverted U-shaped relationship. This study examined this inverted U-shaped hypothesis among Chinese adolescents, who are raised in a culture emphasizing moderation.

Background And Objectives: Social determinants of health (SDOH) are key drivers of health inequities, shaping disparities in patient outcomes that must be addressed. This study examines the association between SDOH and suspected child abuse (SCA) in pediatric patients sustaining traumatic brain injury (TBI), leveraging newly proposed Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)/PLACES measures to identify the most contributing measure to SCA.
Methods: A retrospective review of our institutional database (2016-2023) identified pediatric TBI cases (18 years and younger) using International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision codes based on a modified CDC framework.

The University of Leicester Ulverscroft Eye Unit, School of Psychology and Vision Sciences, University of Leicester, Leicester, United Kingdom.
Purpose: To define the genetic architecture of foveal morphology and explore its relevance to foveal hypoplasia (FH), a hallmark of developmental macular disorders.
Methods: We applied deep-learning algorithms to quantify foveal pit depth from central optical coherence tomography (OCT) B-scans in 61,269 UK Biobank participants. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted using REGENIE, adjusting for age, sex, height, and ancestry.

University of Vermont, Burlington, Vermont.
Objective: The transition to college is a period of growth and vulnerability for young adult health and well-being and provides a critical window for potential behavioral interventions. In this study, we sought to examine the trajectory of anxiety symptoms and their association with individual characteristics, exposure to stressors, and sleep behaviors during the transition to college.
Method: We recruited full-time, incoming undergraduate students at a university in the northeastern United States to participate during the first semester of college between October 21, 2022, and December 12, 2022.
