TL;DR: Using the thought-listing technique, women under stereotype threat reported a higher number of negative thoughts specifically related to the test and to mathematics compared with women in the no-threat condition.

TL;DR: A sample of 1,209 university students from three countries completed a 24-item self-report measure (the Young Adult Rating Scale) tapping ADHD symptomatology and reported significantly more inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms than students from the United States and New Zealand.

TL;DR: Structural equation models showed that both the in-school and the after-school peer networks uniquely contributed to explaining variance in 2 types of individual problem behavior and that similarity with the 2 peer networks varied according to behaviors specific to each context and across gender.

TL;DR: Level of reciprocated nominations within the group, but not identification, was found to covary with individual-group behavioral similarity (group behavior interacted with reciprocity of group nominations in predicting individual behavior).

TL;DR: The influence of using substances with friends on future individual use was examined in the context of parental monitoring rules and the ecology of peer activities as discussed by the authors, and the relation between substance co-use with friends and individual substance use was stronger when the level of supervision was low and when friends spent their time together primarily in unstructured contexts such as on the street or in park settings.
