Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With more than 100,000 copies in print, Living with the Passive-Aggressive Man draws on case histories from clinical psychologist Scott Wetzler’s practice to help you identify the destructive behavior, the root causes and motivations, and solutions. Do you know one of these men? The catch-me-if-you-can lover... Phil’s romantic and passionate one minute, distant and cold the next. The deviously manipulative coworker or boss... Jack denies resenting Nora’s rapid rise in the company, but when they’re assigned to work together on a project, he undermines her. The obstructionist, procrastinating husband... Bob keeps telling his wife he’ll finish the painting job he began years ago, but he never seems to get around to it. These are all classic examples of the passive-aggressive man. This personality syndrome—in which hostility wears a mask of passivity—is currently the number one source of men’s problems in relationships and on the job. In Living with the Passive-Aggressive Man, Scott Wetzler draws upon numerous case histories from his own practice to explain how and why the passive-aggressive man thinks, feels, and acts the way he does. Dr. Wetzler also offers advice on: • How to avoid playing victim, manager, or rescuer to the “P-A” • How to get his anger and fear into the open • How to help the “P-A” become a better lover, husband, and father • How to survive passive-aggressive game playing on the job Living with a man’s passive aggression can be an emotional seesaw ride. But armed with this book, you can avoid the bumpy landings.

Download or read book Dyadic Coping A Collection of Recent Studies written by Guy Bodenmann and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-09-25 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dyadic coping is a concept that has reached increased attention in psychological science within the last 20 years. Dyadic coping conceptualizes the way couples cope with stress together in sharing appraisals of demands, planning together how to deal with the stressors and engage in supportive or joint dyadic coping. Among the different theories of dyadic coping, the Systemic Transactional Model (STM; Bodenmann, 1995, 1997, 2005) has been applied to many studies on couples’ coping with stress. While a recent meta-analysis shows that dyadiccoping is a robust and consistent predictor of relationship satisfaction and couple’s functioning in community samples, some studies also reveal the significance of dyadic coping in dealing with psychological disorders (e.g., depression, anxiety) or severe illness (e.g., cancer, diabetes, COPD, etc.). Researchers all over the world build their research on this or other concepts of dyadic coping and many typically use the Dyadic Coping Inventory (DCI) for assessing dyadic coping. So far, research on dyadic coping has been systematically presented in two books, one written by Revenson, Kayser, & Bodenmann in 2005, focussing on emerging perspectives on couples’ coping, the other by Falconier, Randall, & Bodenmann more recently in 2016, addressing intercultural aspects of dyadic coping in African, American, Asian and European couples. This eBook gives an insight into recent dyadic coping research in different areas and countries.
Download or read book Coping with Relational Aggression Within Children s Close Friendships written by Tracy Evian Waasdorp and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent research suggests that when relational aggression occurs between close friends instead of the general peer group, it has a stronger negative impact on the social and emotional well-being for both the victim and the perpetrator. This dissertation explored children's, parents', and teachers' perceptions of the frequency and the harmfulness of relational aggression within children's close friendships. Child and parent self-report also served to explore perceptions of coping strategies used by children when faced with relational aggression within their close friendships. Data were collected in a low-income urban environment from 126 fourth- and fifth-grade children, their parents, and their teachers. Results revealed that: (1) Girls perceived relationally aggressive behaviors within their friendships as more harmful than boys; (2) parents rated physical and verbal aggression as more harmful than relationally aggressive behaviors, whereas both boys and the girls overwhelmingly reported relationally aggressive behaviors as more harmful than physically and verbally aggressive behavior; (3) parents and children reported similar rankings of the methods children use to cope; (4) lastly, most of the teachers felt that only female students, not male students, face relational aggression within their friendships. Overall, perceived harmfulness is related to how the child will cope with relational aggression, and gender was not related to coping strategy use. Moreover, there was a trend suggesting that African American children who perceived relational aggression as harmful were more likely to use aggressive coping strategies.
