The research group finalized phase I of the cross-cultural project about intensive parenting that would pave the way for the second phase of the intensive parenting across cultures (IPAC) project, including applying for fund. The phase 1 article is published in the Personality and Individual Differences (P.A.I.D.) journal, which is a top 10 percent journal with a 90th percentile according to the Scopus database. We are currently in the process of the Arabic standardization of the IPAC scale.

The research group achieved a significant milestone by successfully finalizing the first neuropsychological Arabic localization of the PsychoPy software, a widely used tool in psychological research and experimentation. This accomplishment not only enhances accessibility for Arabic-speaking researchers and practitioners but also bridges a critical gap in the availability of culturally adapted resources for psychological studies in the Arab world. By ensuring accurate translation and functionality, the research group has empowered researchers to design and conduct experiments in their native language, fostering greater inclusivity and precision in data collection. This achievement underscores the research group's dedication to advancing psychological science and supporting diverse academic and professional communities. The translation process is included in a research paper submitted recently for publication​.
