TL;DR: Results demonstrated that, although socio-economic status (SES) predicted fine motor performance and three of four cognitive domains at school age, gestational age was not a significant predictor of later development, and provided evidence for detecting children at risk of developmental delays or disorders with a parent report questionnaire prior to school age.

TL;DR: In this paper, a longitudinal study of autonomous work groups at a new and an established minerals processing plant was conducted and the results of the study support the proposition that employees in auto-professionals are more likely to participate in autonomous work.

TL;DR: It was found that motor ability significantly accounted for variance in tasks measuring speed of performance, whereas inattention appeared to influence performance variability.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss how people's interpretation of their experience of volcanic hazards and public volcanic hazard education programs influences their risk perception and whether or not they adopt measures that can mitigate their risk.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on facilitating recovery and growth in professionals for whom disaster work and its consequences is an occupational reality, and discuss resilience and vulnerability at dispositional, cognitive and organisational levels.
