💚 World Mental Health Day 🌍

Our mental health is shaped not only by what we experience, but also by how we understand and manage our emotions.

Emotion regulation helps us navigate life’s ups and downs, cope with stress, and build resilience. It’s not about suppressing difficult feelings, but learning to recognise, understand and respond to them in healthy ways.

By creating space to talk about emotions and developing the skills to manage them, we can take meaningful steps towards better mental health and wellbeing.

Tools like FEEL-KJ-2 can help support our understanding of emotional skills, reminding us that recognising and regulating emotions is an important part of the bigger mental health picture. 💚

This World Mental Health Day, let’s make space for every feeling, every conversation, and every step towards wellbeing.

🎗️ October is . A month to raise awareness, encourage acceptance, and celebrate neurodiversity 🧡

We know that for ADHD, early intervention is key, but a diagnosis at any age can be a life saver for many who may question their differences. Supporting professionals with the right assessment tools plays an important role in that journey.

📍 We'll be showcasing a range of ADHD-related measures at the upcoming Tes SEND Show on 9th-10th October and the Neurodiversity Conference on 23rd October. Come and say hi and speak with our assessment experts.

📈 With NHS assessment waiting lists continuing to rise sharply, many children face delayed diagnosis and, consequently, delayed support.

In our latest article, Clinical Assessment Psychologist, Dr Laura Porter, highlights an emerging shift towards a neuroaffirmative, needs-led approach that emphasises understanding each child holistically.

She also underlines the value of early intervention and assessment tools like the Griffiths Scales of Child Development, Third Edition (Griffiths III) and the Early Sociocognitive Battery (ESB) in identifying strengths and needs and enabling timely, person-centred support that helps children thrive.

Work-related mental health challenges are continuing to rise—impacting both organisational performance and the wider economy.

One key factor is how individuals process emotions in response to stress and workplace demands, which can have a direct effect on both wellbeing and productivity.

The Emotional Processing Scale – Wellbeing (EPS-W), grounded in clinical research, provides a structured framework to better understand these processes.

EPS-W author, Professor Roger Baker and Peter Courage, Department Head for Business Performance at Healthcare NHS University Foundation Trust worked together to apply this evidence-based instrument in practice.

The findings are featured in the latest case studies resource from Hogrefe UK; examining how the EPS-W can support deeper individual insight and contribute to healthier, more resilient organisations.

The Hogrefe UK team was delighted to host the Hogrefe Publishing Group’s annual General Managers’ meeting this week in Oxford.

Colleagues travelled from 18 countries across Europe and North & South America to join us in the ‘city of dreaming spires’—making it a truly global gathering.

Alongside a productive business agenda, we made time to share some of Oxford’s highlights. From punting on the River Thames (in the sunshine!) to a memorable visit to Worcester College for a glimpse of university life, a tour of Oxford’s grandest sights, and an evening at the iconic Randolph Hotel; it was a wonderful opportunity to connect beyond the Teams meeting room.

We look forward to welcoming more Hogrefe colleagues, partners and authors to Oxford again soon!

The Emotion Regulation Strategies Questionnaire (FEEL-KJ-2) is a UK-normed self-report measure for children and adolescents aged 9 to 20 years that explores how young people manage and respond to their emotions.

Using a five-point Likert scale, the questionnaire assesses the extent to which different emotion regulation strategies are used when experiencing anger, anxiety, and sadness.

By identifying ways of coping, the FEEL-KJ-2 supports understanding of a young person’s emotional wellbeing and can guide the development of healthier regulation strategies. This makes it a valuable tool for promoting emotional resilience, improving mental health, and helping children and young people manage emotions in a safe, effective, and adaptive way.

In honour of , we interviewed ADI-R co-author and eminent researcher Ann Le Couteur about her fascinating career, in which she has contributed extensively to the development of autism assessments, training (including PACT), and research.

We explore the history of the structured autism assessment interview and much more – including why it's critical to remember that the autism assessment and diagnostic process are interventions themselves.
