Most adults say they care deeply about animals. Yet, many continue to consume meat regularly — a contradiction known as the meat paradox. Interestingly, this paradox doesn’t emerge overnight. It begins to take shape during adolescence, a critical developmental stage when moral values, social norms, and personal identity start to collide. Recent research from the UK sheds light on how adolescents, compared to adults, may … The post Why Adolescents May Be More Speciesist Than Adults appea...| Wise & Shine

The triad… The post What Is the Female Athlete Triad? first appeared on UNC Health Talk.| UNC Health Talk
Aquests dies ha vist la llum el llibre No sense el meu mòbil. Un títol que prové d’un article publicat en aquest mateix diari, en un dels múltiples moments de pànic moral adult al voltant de “les pantalles”. Ara, el llibre surt també en un altre moment d’aquests: la conselleria d'Educació acaba d'anunciar que el curs vinent s'hauran d'eliminar totalment –i, per tant, quedaran prohibits– els mòbils i els rellotges intel·ligents en totes les etapes de l'educació obligatòr...| Ara.cat

Identifying risk factors for eating disorder symptoms may help us develop more evidence-based prevention mentions. Personally not convinced that prevention is really possible with the types of individual-focused programs we have today, I would argue that identifying risk factors may at least help us determine which individuals should be screened in subsequent years. If they do develop eating disorders, they will hopefully be more likely to receive early intervention and treatment. To identif...| Science of Eating Disorders
