- Vulnerable attachment style questionnaire: preliminary evidence for a revised factor structure among adolescents in residential carePublication . Simão, Ana; Martins, Cátia; Bifulco, Antonia; Nunes, CristinaBackground/Objectives: The attachment framework has been used to understand individuals’ development and the emergence of difficulties in specific contexts and developmental stages. The Vulnerable Attachment Style Questionnaire (VASQ) is a brief self-report measure initially designed to assess adult attachment as a vulnerability factor for the development of depression. The present study aimed to examine the factor structure and psychometric properties of the VASQ in a sample of adolescents living in residential care and to provide preliminary evidence for a revised version of the instrument in this population. Methods: A total of 438 youths, aged 12 to 18 years (M = 15.34), completed the questionnaire. Data were randomly split to conduct independent exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. Results: A three-factor model, consisting of two types of insecurity (ambivalent and avoidant) and a proximity-seeking dimension, emerged as the best-fitting solution. This revised structure involved removing several items while maintaining acceptable psychometric properties and meaningful associations with psychological adjustment. Concurrent validity was assessed by examining youth psychological adjustment, and positive correlations emerged as expected. Conclusions: The findings provide preliminary support for a shortened, restructured version of the VASQ for adolescents in residential care. Rather than confirming the original factorial structure, the results highlight the need to consider population-specific adaptations of the instrument. This version may have potential utility in clinical or intervention contexts and underscores the need to train institutional workers to develop competencies tailored to this population.
- Do personality traits matter for safety behaviour? The boundary role of safety trainingPublication . Sousa, Cátia; Coelho, AnneSafety behaviour in the workplace is influenced by both individual characteristics and organizational practices; however, the conditions under which these factors interact remain insufficiently understood. Drawing on an interactionist perspective, this study examines whether perceived safety training effectiveness functions as a contextual condition that shapes the influence of personality traits on safety behaviour. A cross-sectional design was adopted, and data were collected through an online questionnaire from 268 workers across diverse professional backgrounds. Measures included safety behaviour, personality traits (neuroticism and conscientiousness), and perceived safety training effectiveness. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, correlation analyses, multiple regression, and moderation analyses, controlling for age and gender. The results showed that neuroticism was negatively associated with safety behaviour, whereas conscientiousness did not present a significant effect when perceived safety training effectiveness was included in the model. Perceived safety training effectiveness emerged as the strongest predictor of safety behaviour. Importantly, perceived safety training effectiveness moderated the relationship between conscientiousness and safety behaviour, such that its influence was stronger at lower levels of training and diminished as training increased. These findings suggest that perceived safety training effectiveness was associated with a weaker relationship between conscientiousness and safety behaviour. By suggesting that the relationship between personality traits and safety behaviour may depend on organizational conditions, this study contributes to a more nuanced understanding of safety behaviour and highlights the central role of training as a key organizational resource for promoting safer work practices.
- Animal husbandry and hunting in the Roman vicus maritimus of Cerro da Vila (Southern Portugal): insights into the coastal economy of LusitaniaPublication . Pratas, Ana; Valente, Maria JoãoThis study presents a zooarchaeological analysis of the vertebrate faunal assemblage from the Roman vicus maritimus of Cerro da Vila, southern Lusitania (modern Algarve, Portugal), with occupation spanning the 1st to 5th centuries CE. The site functioned as a diversified coastal hub integrating intensive fish-processing, agricultural production, and maritime trade, yet the role of animal exploitation in sustaining this economy has hitherto remained poorly understood. Given the limited stratigraphic resolution of the excavation records, the assemblage was treated as a whole, and the patterns discussed reflect long-term, diachronic trends rather than discrete subperiod practices. The analysis reveals an assemblage dominated by domestic mammals, particularly swine and caprines (sheep and goats), whose age-at-death profiles and skeletal element distributions may be consistent with structured husbandry strategies oriented towards both primary meat production and the procurement of secondary products, notably wool and milk. The presence of chicken, red deer, and rabbit points to dietary diversity and to the complementary role of hunting within local subsistence practices, while biometric data fall within ranges documented for Roman-period assemblages elsewhere in southern Lusitania. The recovery of remains of Egyptian mongoose suggests the introduction of a non-native species, pointing to interprovincial exchange of biological material under Roman rule. Taken together, the faunal evidence indicates that Cerro da Vila combined livestock husbandry and marine resource exploitation while also participating in broader Mediterranean trade networks, thus shedding light on the economic organisation and interprovincial connectivity that characterised Roman coastal settlements in Lusitania.
- Predictors of child-to-parent violence in adolescence: a systematic reviewPublication . Mendes, Lara; dos Santos, Rita Alexandra Mendes; Martins, Cátia; Carmo, Cláudia; Brás, Marta; Nunes, CristinaBackground/Objectives: Child-to-parent violence (CPV) refers to persistent physical, psychological, or financial violence perpetrated by children or adolescents against their parents. Although CPV has attracted increasing academic and professional attention in recent years, evidence regarding its predictors remains fragmented. This systematic literature review aimed to synthesize empirical evidence on the predictors of adolescent CPV, with a particular focus on developmental victimization, personality traits, and psychopathology. Violence refers to the intentional use of physical, psychological, or symbolic force to cause harm, control, or suffering, while aggression corresponds to intentional behavior aimed at harming another individual, which may or may not involve physical violence and is often broader and more situational. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines and prospectively registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024596076). Searches were carried out in January 2025 across six electronic databases (PsycINFO, Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, MEDLINE, and CINAHL). Empirical studies published between 2000 and 2025 examining predictors of CPV in adolescence, namely developmental victimization, personality traits, and psychopathology, were included. Methodological quality was assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). Results: The search identified 862 records, of which 46 studies met the inclusion criteria and were retained for full-text analysis. Most studies were quantitative in design and published within the last 15 years, with Spain accounting for most of the empirical evidence. The findings consistently demonstrated associations between CPV and exposure to direct or vicarious family victimization, maladaptive personality traits—particularly psychopathic features—and a range of psychopathological symptoms, including substance use, mood and anxiety disorders, and neurodevelopmental conditions. Conclusions: The results support a multifactorial and developmental understanding of CPV, highlighting early victimization as a central risk context interacting with personality and mental health vulnerabilities. Limitations of the existing literature are discussed, and directions for future research are proposed, emphasizing the need for longitudinal and qualitative studies to inform prevention and intervention strategies.
- Twenty years of marine systematic conservation planning: a global scoping review for good practicesPublication . Fabbrizzi, Erika; Giakoumi, Sylvaine; Petza, Dimitra; Álvarez-Romero, Jorge; Beher, Jutta; Katsanevakis, Stelios; Lamine, Emna Ben; Colloca, Francesco; Domínguez Crisóstomo, Esther; Elliott, Michael; Flannery, Wesley; Galparsoro, Ibon; Kruse, Maren; McAteer, Ben; McIntosh, Emma; Resaikos, Vasilis; Stelzenmüller, Vanessa; Fraschetti, SimonettaHuman activities are exerting increasing pressure on the ocean, threatening marine biodiversity and the many benefits it provides to people. Allocating adequate space to enable the sustainable and equitable use of the ocean resources, while ensuring cost-effective conservation and restoration of marine ecosystem is particularly challenging in light of ambitious global, regional, and national commitments, such as those established by the Global Biodiversity Framework. In this context, Systematic Conservation Planning (SCP) offers a robust framework to prioritize conservation actions that safeguard biodiversity while minimizing costs and facilitating dialogue among maritime sectors. Methodology. The scoping review here assesses the challenges in SCP implementation and the obstacles preventing its adoption in guiding decision-making for the achievement of conservation objectives in harmony with human uses of marine resources. The 149 studies analysed, spanning from 2002 to early 2023, are distributed across all continents and encompass nine biogeographic realms.
- Unlocking the past: dental calculus as key to understanding ancient health and disease through a one health frameworkPublication . Neves, Dulce; Cristiani, Emanuela; Carvalho, António Manuel Faustino de; Silva, Ana MariaObjective: Ancient dental calculus (DC) serves as a critical biomolecular repository, preserving dietary and extra-dietary residues related to past health and disease. This review examines DC as a potential 'One Paleopathology' resource, highlighting the interconnectedness of past human-animal-environmental health. Through a One Health lens, it critically assesses current research and opportunities for the next 50 years of study. Results: By synthesizing the available literature and the current state of the art, we critically evaluate how DC research bridges paleopathology, bioarchaeology, and modern health sciences, providing a unique lens for assessing health and disease within ecological and evolutionary contexts. We highlight methodological advances and limitations, while identifying critical gaps and opportunities for interdisciplinary integration, standardization, and forward-looking research to expand the field over the next 50 years. Conclusions: DC research effectively integrates paleopathology, bioarchaeology, and modern health sciences enabling the reconstruction of health and disease within ecological and evolutionary contexts and highlights the interdependence of humans, animals, and the environment. Significance: From a One Health perspective, dental calculus analysis provides a long-term perspective on interactions among humans, animals, microbes, and environments, informing past and contemporary health research. Limitations: Interpretation is constrained by preservation biases, variability in analytical methods, and the destructive nature of sampling dental calculus. Further Research: Future investigations should prioritize sustainable sampling, methodological standardization, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Emerging technologies and integrative approaches will place DC research at the forefront of 'One Paleopathology'.
- Decent and meaningful work: experiences of immigrant construction workers in PortugalPublication . Faria, Liliana; Gonçalves, NicoleThis study explores the experiences of African migrant workers in Portugal's construction sector, focusing on how decent work and meaningful work coexist under structural vulnerability. Guided by the Psychology of Working Theory, semi-structured interviews with 18 workers were analysed through reflexive thematic analysis. Findings reveal that temporary contracts, low wages, hazardous conditions and limited social protection constrain access to decent work. Despite these challenges, workers actively construct meaningful work through family-oriented motivations, peer solidarity, and recognition from supervisors. Meaningful work emerges as a relational, situated process, shaped by structural conditions but not reducible to them. Individual and collective resilience sustain dignity, purpose and self-worth, highlighting the non-linear relationship between decent work and meaningful work. The results suggest that meaning at work can persist even in precarious contexts, emphasizing the importance of integrated labour policies and organizational practices that foster both decent work and meaningful work, supporting migrant workers' well-being, agency and long-term integration.
- The role of coping strategies, social support and dark triad traits in the psychological adjustment of adolescents in residential carePublication . Simão, Ana; Ratinho, Elias; Nunes, CristinaDark Triad traits have been increasingly studied due to their relevance for understanding emotional and behavioral adjustment. However, little is known about how these traits operate in vulnerable youth populations, particularly adolescents living in residential care. This study examined the direct and indirect effects of Dark Triad traits on psychological adjustment among institutionalized adolescents, considering the roles of coping strategies and social support. Participants were 433 adolescents aged 12 to 18 years (M = 15.33; 45% boys and 55% girls) from 46 Portuguese residential care institutions. Adolescents completed self-report measures assessing Dark Triad traits, coping strategies, perceived social support, and psychological adjustment. Correlational analyses and path analysis were conducted to test relationships between variables, and sex differences were also explored. Results showed that psychopathy had the strongest association with psychological adjustment, mainly through avoidant coping strategies. Machiavellianism and narcissism presented weaker effects. Problem-focused coping and higher levels of social support were associated with better psychological adjustment, whereas avoidant coping was consistently related to greater difficulties. Some patterns varied by sex. These findings highlight the importance of promoting adaptive coping strategies and strengthening social support in residential care settings to improve psychological outcomes among atrisk youth.
