Chapter Three examines the pathology of depressive disorders and provides an overview of evidence-based psychotherapies for this common and debilitating disorder. Chapter Four integrates literature on habit formation, prosocial development, and positive interventions to describe evidence-based strategies for promoting prosocial habits. Chapter Five focuses on the influence of the coloured brain on the relationship between leadership and organizational performance. Chapter Six reviews some fundamental theoretical approaches to the role of gender in conflict resolution, as well as relevant studies that bridge the gap between gender, negotiation and mediation.

Chapter Eight discusses the training practices and psychometric tests for children with developmental dyslexia. Lastly, Chapter Nine presents a qualitative study on individual and social stressors, positive and negative coping mechanisms, and facilitators along the development of transgender-women identity from the perspective of 9 transgender women.
