Statistical network models describing multivariate dependency structures in psychological data have gained increasing popularity. Such comparably novel statistical techniques require specific guidelines to make them accessible the research community. So far, researchers provided tutorials guiding estimation of networks and their accuracy. However, there is currently little guidance determining what parts analyses results should be documented a scientific report. A lack such reporting...
Resilience is still often viewed as a unitary personality construct that, kind of antinosological entity, protects individuals against stress-related mental problems. However, increasing evidence indicates that maintaining health in the face adversity results from complex and dynamic processes adaptation to stressors involve activation several separable protective factors. Such resilience factors can reside at biological, psychological, social levels may include stable predispositions (such...

Identifying the different influences of symptoms in dynamic psychopathology models may hold promise for increasing treatment efficacy clinical applications. Dynamic study behavioral patterns symptom networks, where mutually enforce each other. Interventions could be tailored to specific that are most effective at lowering activity or hinder further development psychopathology. Simulating interventions network fits a novel tradition symptom-specific perturbations used as silico interventions....
Inspired by modeling approaches from the ecosystems literature, in this paper, we expand network approach to psychopathology with risk and protective factors arrive at an integrated analysis of resilience. We take a complexity investigate multifactorial nature resilience present system which interacting psychiatric symptoms is targeted factors. These influence symptom development patterns thereby increase or decrease probability that pulled toward healthy disorder state. In way, network....
Abstract Network analysis is a method used to explore the structural relationships between people or organizations, and more recently psychological constructs. novel technique that can be model constructs influence language learning as complex systems, with longitudinal data, cross-sectional data. The majority of dynamic systems theory (CDST) research in field second acquisition (SLA) date has been time-intensive, focus on analyzing intraindividual variation dense data collection. question...
Related to but distinct from biological and environmental systems, we define functional ageing as the interacting changes in physical mental body functions, behavioural factors social participation that occur individuals age. We propose a complex systems perspective can illuminate how outcomes such quality of life longevity, prevention treatment success emerge dynamic interactions among these domains, rather than single causes. support this view three ways. First, explain key principles...
Network theories have been put forward for psychopathology (in which mental disorders originate from causal relations between symptoms) and personality factors coupled equilibria of cognitions, affect states, behaviours, environments). Here, we connect these theoretical strands in an overarching personality–resilience–psychopathology model. In this model, networks control the shape dynamical landscape symptom evolve; example, neuroticism item ‘I often feel blue’ measures a general tendency...
In psychology, regulation of measurement practices relies on the use psychometric models that relate targeted psychological construct to a set observations in empirical research. Recent work has argued for new conceptualization, which constructs are viewed as networks. However, contrast existing models, network psychometrics not articulated normative guidelines measurement. To develop criteria framework, clearer picture is needed about possible targets network. Using example depression, we...
Experiencing stressful or traumatic events can lead to a range of responses, from mild disruptions severe and persistent mental health issues. Understanding the various trajectories response adversity is crucial for developing effective interventions support systems. Researchers have identified four commonly observed adversity, which resilient most common one. Resilience refers maintenance healthy psychological functioning despite facing adversity. However, it remains an open question how...
To understand how compliance develops both in everyday and corporate environments, it is crucial to different mechanisms work together shape individuals' (non)compliant behavior. Existing studies typically focus on a subset of theories (i.e., rational choice theories, social legitimacy capacity opportunity theories) key variables from one or several these individual compliance. The present study provides first integrated understanding compliance, rooted complexity science, which elements are...

Resilience refers to the ability return normal psychological functioning despite facing adversity. It remains an open question how anticipate and study resilience, due its dynamic multifactorial nature. This paper presents a novel formalized simulation framework for studying resilience from complex systems perspective. From this view, is property of system that arises if located in stable healthy state We use network theory psychopathology, which states mental disorders are self-sustaining...
Network theories have been put forward for psychopathology (in which mental disorders originate from causal relations between symptoms) and personality factors coupled equilibria of cognitions, affect states, behaviors, environments).

The network theory of psychopathology proposes that mental disorders can be represented as networks interacting psychiatric symptoms. These direct symptom-symptom interactions create a vicious cycle symptom activation, pushing the to self-sustaining dysfunctional phase psychopathology: disorder. Symptom models estimated from empirical data through statistical models. Although simulation studies have established relation between structure these and probability they end up in phase, general...

Background. Why does adversity lead to mental health complaints in some, but not others? Individual differences the development of depressive are related regulation affect states. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a prolonged period perturbations daily lives people across globe, providing an unparalleled opportunity investigate how fluctuations positive and negative relate evolution mood complaints.Methods. 228 participants from Boston College sleep well-being survey completed at least 20...
Many studies have found that depressive complaints are associated with the regulation of affect while facing stress. Individuals inclined towards experience negative more vulnerable to developing complaints, frequent experiences positive buffer development such complaints. To better understand dynamic mechanisms between and depression in detail, this paper investigates how different evaluations over a prolonged period stress relate fluctuations affect. We included assessments (Positive...
