peer-reviewed ; .Responsible decision-making is a sub-domain of social emotional competence and develops through the educational process of social and emotional learning (SEL). The current review examines responsible decision-making and explores, specifically, the relationship between moral reasoning (MR) and academic achievement (N = 6,992, 18), MR and religiosity (N = 3,441, 15), MR and political orientation (N = 12,960, 15) and MR and personality (N = 1,659, 8). Forty-three studies qualified for inclusion and analysis. The results indicated a positive effect between MR and academic achievement (ES = + 0.24). Interestingly, small negative effects were found between MR and political orientation (ES = - 0.06). Results also indicated small non-significant effects between MR and religiosity (ES = - 0.00, p = .94), and MR and personality (ES = + 0.01, p = .92). Possible interpretations of these findings are discussed with reference to the literature. ; ACCEPTED ; peer-reviewed

Responsible decision-making is a sub-domain of social emotional competence and develops through the educational process of social and emotional learning (SEL). The current review examines the relationship between decision-making, specifically, moral reasoning (MR) and academic ability (N = 6,992, 18), MR and religiosity (N = 3,441, 15), MR and political orientation (N = 12,814, 14) and MR and personality (N = 1,659, 8). Forty-three studies qualified for inclusion and analysis. The results indicated a positive effect between MR and academic ability (ES = + 0.24). Interestingly, small negative effects were found between MR and political orientation (ES = - 0.07). Results also indicated small non-significant effects between MR and religiosity (ES = +0.00, p = .94), and MR and personality (ES = + 0.01, p = .92). Possible interpretations of these findings are discussed with reference to the literature.

Forest Landscape Restoration in Hilly and Mountainous Regions: Special Issue: The 'Conversion of Cropland to Forest Program' (CCFP) as a national 'Payment for Ecosystem Services' (PES) scheme in China: Institutional structure and roles, ensuring voluntarism and conditionality of subsidy payments ; China's 'Conversion of Cropland to Forest Program' (CCFP) is one of the world's largest national 'Payment for Ecosystem Services' (PES) programs, with over 32 million rural households enrolled and 28 million ha converted to forest since 1999. Given the scale of the program and emerging interest in forest landscape restoration, the structure and function of implementation models is of interest. This study is based on key informant interviews tracing the structure and interactions among institutions for implementation of the CCFP from central government to provincial and sub-provincial scales in Yunnan Province. Data are used to analyze implementation arrangements for program planning, implementation and monitoring, and to identify features ensuring conditionality of PES payments. To assess the degree of voluntarism in enrollment, the study employs data from 87 household-level interviews in four southwestern provinces. Findings indicate that the CCFP system is designed to fulfill expectations of PES programs in terms of conditionality and voluntary participation on the side of ecosystem service sellers. ; Peer reviewed
