Study finds children distinguish between willingly given and coerced expressions of remorse. Findings suggest that exploring ways to help the child learn to have empathy for the victim, thus ensuring a sincere apology, is more constructive than immediately coercing a reluctant “I’m sorry.”

Study of more than 50,000 people finds 12 regions of DNA that seem to play a role in increasing ADHD risk, with correlations to risk of depression and anorexia. Some of the genes are involved in other neurological conditions, including speech and learning disabilities, depression, and schizophrenia.

Peacekeeping is extremely effective, far more so than previous studies have shown. If the UN had invested $200 billion in PKOs with strong mandates over the period 2001-2013, major armed conflict would have been reduced by up to two thirds and 150,000 lives would have been saved.
