Download or read book The Effects of a Social Skills Training Program on Interpersonal Communications in Parent Adolescent Dyads written by Patrick Sean Noble and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this thesis was twofold. First, there was an experiment in which the independent variable was the behavioral skill levels of parents and their adolescents on a social skills training program and the dependent variable was the parent and adolescent perceptions of their interpersonal relationship regarding communication and problem solving. Second, there was an experiment comparing instructional styles wherein the independent variable was the length of time used to present the social skills training program and the dependent variable was the resulting scores on the behavioral measures of the program. A modified pretest -post-test control group design was used wherein the control group for the first experiment became a portion of the experimental group for the second experiment. There were 43 parent adolescent dyads who volunteered to participate. Of those, 25 of the dyads met the minimum criteria for being included in the analysis. There were 18 dyads analyzed from the experimental group and seven from the control group. Results of the first experiment, regarding the effects of a social skills program on perceived interpersonal relationships, demonstrated that while the parents did perceive an improvement, the adolescents did not. Results of the second experiment demonstrated that the long term program of one skill every week for eight weeks was more effective than the concentrated one week program of two skills per night for four nights.

Book Parent adolescent Communication

Download or read book Parent adolescent Communication written by Cristina Marie McAllister and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A parent’s ability to be autonomy supportive, specifically when communicating with their adolescent about romantic relationships and sex, is critical to promote healthy adolescent development. Previous research examining parent-adolescent communication about sex and romantic relationships has relied heavily on self-report methods, specifically from adolescents. However, this approach does not adequately capture the interdependent nature of the parent-adolescent relationship or the way they have conversations about sex and romantic relationships. In this study, 50 parent-adolescent dyads were observed having discussions about music media. Participants watched three popular music videos which contained messages of positive romantic relationships, overt sexualization, or violence in romantic relationships. Participants were asked to discuss the three videos together where they were audio and video recorded in a comfortable laboratory setting as they watched each video. The recordings were then coded for the types of questions asked during the discussion which were related to autonomy supportive behaviors. The data were modeled after the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model and subsequently analyzed using structural equation modeling. Results indicated that parents who reported higher autonomy granting in their daily life asked significantly more clarifying and redirecting questions of their adolescent during the discussions about music media. Results also indicated that when adolescents reported that their parents were high in autonomy granting overall, they had parents who were less likely to ask both redirecting questions and clarifying questions.

Book excerpt: Conflict is a natural, even inevitable, aspect of most ongoing close relationships - a given. What distinguishes most successful relationships from unsuccessful ones is not the absence of conflict, but how conflict is managed. Relationship Conflict skillfully portrays the different types of conflict that we encounter in our most significant personal relationships: parent-child, friendship, and romantic relationships. The authors capture the essence of current research and theory to shed light on conflict's role in human interaction. Drawing from the findings of multiple disciplines, this volume takes a developmental development look at childhood friendships through to dating and married relationships. The results result is a richer understanding of interpersonal involvement accessible to close relationship researchers and professionals and students in many service-based fields.

Book Applied Interpersonal Communication Matters

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is an important time for scholars of communication to develop rich theory addressing critical applied interpersonal issues. Stress, substance abuse, violence, health problems, divorce, safety, and aging are but a few of the problems individuals address in their day-to-day interpersonal communication. That communication is critical to coping successfully with these challenges. Stressing the timeliness of such applied contributions, the International Communication Association instituted a regular feature in its newsletter on communication matters, and focused its most recent conference on applied issues in communication. This edited volume, containing individual chapters by original researchers, explores socially meaningful contributions to the study of interpersonal problems involving language and social action.
