Abstract

The present issue of the Journal of Clinical and Developmental Psychology offers an opportunity to reflect on emerging themes within the field, with particular attention to the interplay between psychological functioning, developmental trajectories, and contextual influences. The contributions gathered in this issue highlight how psychological research continues to evolve in response to contemporary challenges, including educational inequalities, social inclusion, and the impact of adverse and high-risk environments on mental health. The articles address a range of interconnected topics, including school attendance problems and learning processes, developmental transitions and work inclusion, and the psychological consequences of trauma in contexts such as forced migration and incarceration. Together, these contributions provide insights that are relevant for psychologists, educators, and policymakers, emphasizing the need for context-sensitive and evidence-based approaches to support well-being and participation across the lifespan.
