Sommario/riassunto |

Lin uses two separate studies with independent samples and different measures to explore how self-control personality traits - sensation seeking, impulsivity, CFC, and anger/temper arousal - relate to risky driving and aggressive driving within the framework of the GAM. He extends low self-control theory by demonstrating how the personality traits involved in this construct are associated with criminal/analogue deviant behaviors. The findings not only validate the meditational model of the GAM, but also imply that it could serve as a useful framework to study violent/property crime in future r |

Sommario/riassunto |

For lovers of trees and shrubs, Editorial UNA presents four volumes of the digital field guide: Barks of Trees and Shrubs of the Palo Verde National Park. Anyone who walks through the forests of Costa Rica will find fascinating the diversity of trees that provide shade and food for the rest of the organisms. This diversity is reflected in the shape, texture and color of the different barks. The digital guides of the bark of trees and shrubs of the Palo Verde National Park are then a very practical tool to identify the different species of trees in the Park; since in many cases it is very difficult to obtain the leaves, flowers and fruits to carry out this task. In a place like the Palo Verde National Park and in a time like the dry season, the forest trees lose their leaves in response to avoid water loss (they avoid losing water through perspiration through their leaves). At this time the trees will not have leaves, flowers or fruits to be identified, only the bark gives us the possibility of knowing their scientific and vernacular name. The purpose of the digital guides (barks of trees and shrubs of the Palo Verde National Park) is to provide the walker interested in trees with a practical tool to identify their names, which would initiate an unsuspected explosion of scientific and cultural knowledge. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Disruptive behavior disorders (DBD) refer to a group of conditions that typically share difficulties in modulating aggressive conducts, self-control, and impulses, with resulting behaviors that constitute a threat to others' safety and to social norms. Problematic issues with self-control associated with these disorders are commonly first observed in childhood, but may often persist into adolescence and adulthood, or pose a developmental risk for subsequent negative outcomes. The clinical management of DBD in childhood and adolescence has seen great advances in recent years, and research has also focused on identifying early signs, predictors, and risk factors, which may help clinicians to disentangle and subtype the heterogeneous manifestations of BDB. This has allowed significant progress to be made in defining specific developmental trajectories, targeted prevention programs, and timely treatment strategies. The principal aims of this Special Issue were thus to address three core features of DBD clinical management, the multidimensional assessment of callous-unemotional traits, empathic faults and emotional dysregulation, and the available treatment options. In this Special Issue, twelve relevant contributions, including ten original articles, one systematic review, and one study protocol, which provide novel insights for the assessment and treatment of DBD in clinical practice, have been collected by the editors. |
