New #z-proso paper by Hanne Duindam et al. out! Our latest study shows: adolescents who experience persistent bullying, distress & distrust are more susceptible to conspiracy thinking & violent extremism by age 24. Developmental trajectories matter for understanding radicalisation.

Using ecological momentary assessment data from the #zproso add-on study D2M, research led by Aja Murray tests how social media use relates to negative emotion and depression: use and negative affect co-occur, but do not predict each other. Moreover, social media inertia is linked to depression.

A new study using #zproso data led by Aja Murray tests the link between reading frequency and adolescent mental health. Using counterfactual and random-intercept cross-lagged panel models, results show no association, indicating reading frequency isn’t a protective factor without further context.

A new #zproso paper led by Clarissa Janousch examines how adolescent cannabis use relates to cognitive performance in young adulthood: cannabis use is linked to reduced attention and declarative memory at age 24, whereas it is not associated with spatial working memory.

Using criminal justice data from the #zproso study, new research led by Gian Ege examines how offences shape prosecutorial decisions in Swiss juvenile justice: while individual factors influence who faces legal proceedings and how often, sanction severity is driven by offence type and recidivism.

Few studies have yet explored how cannabis use influences changes in psychopathology and functional well-being in young adults. Using #zproso data, a new study led by @lydiafjf.bsky.social examines this matter through self-reports and hair THC analyses to track changes from age 20 to 24. 👇
