Resumen

Issue 5 (1-3) of the Journal of Clinical and Developmental Psychology (JCDP) provided valuable insights for clinical practice. These included the support offered by new technologies for therapy and well-being promotion, as well as disease-related factors that should be considered in lifelong prevention and well-being promotion practices. The presented papers addressed several key themes. The dynamics of neurodevelopmental disorders were explored, with a focus on childhood. In the area of technology, the importance of virtual reality to improve cognitive, social, and behavioral skills was highlighted, as well as the use of a mobile phone app to provide digital and relational opportunities for individuals with disabilities and the elderly. From a risk prevention perspective, the issue provided useful insights into media use and its association with negative developmental outcomes, with a focus on adolescence.
