E328 - Phubbing Makes the Heart Grow Callous: Effects of Phubbing on Pro-social Behavioral Intentions, Empathy and Self-Control This research investigates the impact of "phubbing" (phone snubbing) on an individual's prosocial intentions, examining the roles of empathy and self-control. The study used correlational and experimental methods to explore how habitual and momentary phubbing affect empathy and subsequent prosocial behavior. The findings suggest that phubbing negatively influences prosocial intentions by reducing empathy. Furthermore, habitual phubbing appears to impair self-control, unlike momentary instances. These results indicate that long-term phubbing may have distinct effects compared to isolated incidents. Ultimately, this research highlights the potential social consequences of smartphone use on interpersonal relationships and prosocial behavior. #phubbing #foranotherdaypodcast Article [https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/epub/10.1177/00332941241284917]

E327 - Childhood Brain Structure Predicts Adolescent Substance Use

New study reveals brain structures of adolescents. A study examined the link between brain structure in late childhood and early substance use. Researchers analyzed brain scans and substance use data from the ABCD study, following thousands of children. Results indicated that children who later initiated substance use before age 15 exhibited larger overall brain volumes and a thinner prefrontal cortex compared to non-users. These pre-existing brain differences suggest a potential predisposition to early substance use. The study highlights the complex relationship between brain development, environmental factors, and the vulnerability to substance use disorders.https://www.psypost.org/neuroscience-brain-differences-in-childhood-predict-substance-use-in-later-life-study-finds/ [https://www.psypost.org/neuroscience-brain-differences-in-childhood-predict-substance-use-in-later-life-study-finds/]
