 Los Angeles, CA, USA. A new study is part of a large, worldwide comparative research effort to define the factors that gave rise to the first societies that developed public buildings, widespread religions and regional political systems — or basically characteristics associated with ancient states or what is colloquially known as civilization.

 Chicago, IL, USA. Hospitalized patients who had conversations about religion and spirituality with their healthcare team were the most satisfied with their overall care, according to a new study.

 Los Angeles, CA, USA. The human  brain simulates physical sensations to prompt introspection, thus capitalizing on moments of high emotion to promote moral behavior.

 Waco, TX, USA. Church communities seem to entirely overlook the needs of families with a mentally ill family member, leading many affected families to leave the church and their faith behind, destroying the family's connection with the religious community.
Families with a mentally ill member become less involved in faith practices, but still would like their congregation to provide assistance with those issues.

 Chicago, IL, USA. A new baseline study documents how morally laden scenarios get changing responses as people age.
Both preschool children and adults distinguish between damage done either intentionally or accidently when assessing whether a perpetrator has done something wrong. However, adults are much less likely than children to think someone should be punished for damaging an object, especially if the action was accidental.
