“Changing the law is not enough on its own.” Violence against children is sometimes seen as tough love but it can cause long-term harm, says Annie Brookman-Byrne, as the World Health Organization calls for a global ban on corporal punishment. boldscience.org/why-corporal...

“reliance on ChatGPT for idea generation comes with a trade-off: while enhancing individual ideas' creativity, it reduces the diversity of ideas in a pool of ideas-a critical element for effective brainstorming” www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The papers all follow a similar template and make misleading claims https://go.nature.com/4kucwEH

Our children will face unprecedented exposure to weather extremes. Our paper led by Luke Grant and @wimthiery.bsky.social published in @nature.com shows that the generation of our children and grandchildren will be exposed to a lot more weather extremes than ours. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Sobre educação e palmadas “A punição física [de crianças] foi associada a resultados prejudiciais, incluindo problemas de saúde mental, piores relacionamentos entre pais e filhos, uso de substâncias, desenvolvimento socioemocional prejudicado, pior desempenho acadêmico e problemas de comportamento”

"The analysis confirmed that physical punishment is associated with detrimental outcomes" endseclusion.info/4jEvLeu #EndSeclusion

Physical punishment in low- and middle-income countries is linked to negative outcomes for children’s health, academic performance, and social-emotional development, with no observed benefits. doi.org/g9hdxp

New paper alert by my incredible colleague @jorgecuartas.bsky.social! In a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies from 92 LMIC, they show that physical punishment is consistently linked to detrimental outcomes for children.

Cuartas et al.’s meta-analysis of 189 studies, including 1,490 effect sizes from 92 low- and middle-income countries, shows that physical punishment of children is linked to a higher risk of detrimental outcomes across the life course. @jorgecuartas.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Tens of thousands of psychological measures have been created, but 79% are not reused more than twice. In a new article in NHB lead by @faridanvari.bsky.social and @ruben.the100.ci we quantify this fragmentation in psychology's measures and propose solutions. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Important article by @jorgecuartas.bsky.social Accepted and normalised violence against children - ie. corporal punishment - is associated with higher levels of violence across society including conflict. Ending violence against children is a foundational peace building strategy

I am *so* excited that a labor of love on "the next 1,000 days" of child development is out in The Lancet after years of collaboration with an incredible group of authors led by Catherine Draper and Milagros Nores.

It was such a pleasure to work with @danacmccoy.bsky.social @jorgecuartas.bsky.social, and Lauren Pisani to create the global estimates of nurturing care based on #MICS data and associations with outcomes using #IDELA data. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

There is rightly a considerable focus on promoting development in the first 1000 days of life, but the next 1000 days are also incredibly important! For health, cognitive outcomes, learning and more, it's essential to give this period attention. Great to see this addressed in this Lancet series.

🌎I am thrilled to share our @TheLancet series on early childhood development and the 'next 1,000 days' 👇 cuartaslab.com/the-next-100...
