Heightened neural reward responsiveness functions as a plasticity factor moderating the association between childhood emotional abuse and young adult depressive symptoms: Evidence of differential susceptibility.
Journal of Psychopathology and Clinical Science, Vol 133(3), Apr 2024, 245-256; doi:10.1037/abn0000911As a neural indicator of reward responsiveness (RR), reward positivity (RewP) has been demonstrated to moderate the association between stress exposure and depressive symptoms. However, extant research has primarily (a) focused on life stress rather than early maltreatment, (b) ignored the time-frequency components, and (c) has been based on a traditional perspective of diathesis stress. The present study aimed to comprehensively examine whether and how neurophysiological (RewP and its time–frequency decomposition compon...

When my neighborhood woke up: Knitting collective action in disadvantaged areas amid the 2019 Chilean uprising.
Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology, Vol 30(1), Feb 2024, 117-127; doi:10.1037/pac0000706October 2019 saw the birth of the largest wave of demonstrations to hit Chile in the last 50 years. Protesters, the length of the country, soon joined in, voicing a broad range of demands and driving what has been described as a true “awakening” at the local level.

The role of place in intergroup conflicts and intragroup solidarity: Recent advances and perspectives.
Peace and Conflict: Journal of Peace Psychology, Vol 30(1), Feb 2024, 1-8; doi:10.1037/pac0000740People tend to have strong psychological bonds with places such as neighborhoods, schools, towns, and countries. These people–place bonds can be of different nature (e.g., place ownership, place attachment), develop for different reasons (e.g., first arrival, length of stay), and generate different group dynamics in specific contexts. With this special issue, we sought to advance our understanding of the potential of people–place bonds to divide groups and instigate intergroup conflicts, as well as the potential to stimulat...
