Organisations including the United Kingdom Armed Forces should seek to implement mental health interventions to increase the psychological well-being of their workforce. This editorial briefly presents ten key principles that military forces should consider before implementing such interventions. These include job-focused training; evaluating interventions; the use of internal versus external training providers; the role of leaders; unit cohesion, single versus multiple session psychological interventions; not overgeneralising the applicability of interventions; the need for repeated skills practice; raising awareness and the fallibility of screening.

Mental health and well-being in adolescence are associated with many short- and long-term outcomes. The evidence suggests that greenspace may play a role in adolescents' mental well-being, but we do not know much about the specifics of this link. In this paper, we investigated the role of other factors in the association. In a cross-sectional study, we investigated the role of neighbourhood greenspace in emotional and behavioural outcomes in 11-year-old urban adolescents participating in the UK Millennium Cohort Study (n = 4,534). We used linear regression models to test for an association of greenspace with self-esteem, happiness, positive mood, negative mood, and antisocial behaviour. We also investigated effect modification/moderation by garden access, physical activity, and perceived area safety. We did not find a main effect of greenspace, but we did find interaction effects. First, in adolescents without a garden, higher levels of greenspace were associated with lower levels of self-esteem and positive mood. Second, in adolescents who reported lower levels of physical activity, higher levels of greenspace were associated with lower levels of negative mood. Third, in adolescents who perceived their areas to be unsafe, higher levels of greenspace were associated with higher levels of antisocial behaviour. Our findings suggest that merely more greenspace in the neighbourhood may not be sufficient to promote the mental well-being of urban adolescents in the UK. However, greenspace does seem to have an influence under certain conditions which should be investigated further in future studies.

ABSTRAK Tempat tinggal berpengaruh pada kesejahteraan psikologik dan salah satu dimensi di dalamnya yaitu penguasaan lingkungan. Bagi mereka yang tidak dapat menguasai lingkungan kemungkinan hal ini turut berperan dengan motivasi mereka untuk pindah dari tempat tinggal hal inilah yang disebut sebagai motivasi migrasi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana peranan penguasaan lingkungan terhadap motivasi migrasi pada penduduk yang tinggal di daerah kumuh Cempaka Raya di Banjarmasin. Hipotesis dalam penelitian ini yaitu ada peranan penguasaan lingkungan terhadap motivasi migrasi pada penduduk yang tinggal di pemukiman kumuh Cempaka Raya Banjarmasin. Subjek dalam penelitian ini adalah 60 orang penduduk di Cempaka Raya Banjarmasin RT 42. Pemilihan subjek yaitu dengan menggunakan teknik cluster random sampling. Metode pengumpulan data pada penelitian ini menggunakan skala penguasaan lingkungan dan skala motivasi migrasi. Metode analisis data yang digunakan yaitu regresi linear sederhana. Berdasarkan hasil diperoleh nilai t hitung > t tabel (13,273>1,672) yaitu terdapat peranan penguasaan lingkungan terhadap motivasi migrasi, dengan nilai t sebesar 13,273, artinya terdapat peranan positif antara penguasaan lingkungan dengan motivasi migrasi, semakin tinggi peguasaan lingkungan maka semakin tinggi pula motivasi migrasi, dan sebaliknya. Peranan  penguasaan lingkungan terhadap motivasi migrasi adalah sebesar 75,2 %, sedangkan 24,8 % merupakan faktor-faktor lain yang tidak dimasukkan dalam penelitian ini.   Kata Kunci: Penguasaan Lingkungan, Motivasi Migrasi, Pemukiman Kumuh ABSTRACT Residence affects psychological well-being, and one of the dimensions in it is environment control. For those who cannot control the environment, the condition will most likely contribute to their motivation to move from their place to somewhere else, which is called motivation for migration. The objective of this study was to find out the role of the environmental control towards the motivation for migration in residents living in the slum of Cempaka Raya in Banjarmasin. The hypothesis of this study was that there was a role of environmental control towards motivation for migration in the population living in the slum of Cempaka Raya Banjarmasin. Subjects in this study were 60 residents in Cempaka Raya Banjarmasin RT 42. The subjects were selected using cluster random sampling technique. Data were collected using the scale of environmental control and the scale of motivation for migration. The data were then analyzed using simple linear regression. The results showed the value of t count > t table (13.273 > 1.672), indicating that there was a role of environmental control towards the motivation for migration, with the value of t 13.273, which meant there was a positive role of environmental control towards motivation for migration. The higher the environmental control, the higher the migration motivation, and vice versa. The role of the environmental control towards the motivation for migration was 75.2% while 24.8% was from other factors not included in this study. Keywords: Environmental Control, Motivation for Migration, Slum

This study investigated the relationship between reappraisal and suppression with depression and mental well-being among university athletes. It was hypothesized reappraisal would associate with lower depression and greater mental well-being, whereas suppression would associate with greater depression and reduced mental well-being. Employing a cross-sectional design, 427 participants (Mage = 20.18, SD = 1.52; 188 males and 239 females) completed questionnaires assessing mental health and strategy use. Hierarchical multiple regressions revealed reappraisal was positively associated, and suppression negatively associated with mental well-being, ΔR2 = 4.8%, ΔF(2, 422) = 17.01, p ≤ .001; suppression, β = −0.08, p = .028; reappraisal, β = 0.21, p ≤ .001, but neither were associated with depression, ΔR2 = 0.4%, ΔF(2, 422) = 1.33, p = .267; suppression, β = 0.06, p = .114; reappraisal, β = 0.03, p = .525. Results highlight reappraisal as correlated with mental well-being in student-athletes, and therefore, reappraisal could be beneficial for managing stress in sport. Reappraisal may implicate how well-being is promoted through sport, but future experimental research is needed to confirm causal relationships.

In the last years, as a result of environmental concerns, changes in lifestyle during the COVID-19 crisis, the role of healthy buildings in addition to the main lighting design principles are highlighted. Therefore, today’s lighting design issues include social well-being, mental well-being, and physical well-being more than we discussed in the last century. Hence, we are familiar with occupant-centric and performance-based metrics for residential and non-domestic buildings. The study analyses the extended occupancy patterns, daylight availability, and annual lighting energy demand through a case study in Bursa, Turkey including the COVID-19 pandemic scenario.
