Book Parent adolescent Relationships

Download or read book Parent adolescent Relationships written by Brian K. Barber and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ten chapters that make up this volume not only cover a broad range of key substantive issues in adolescent research (e.g., ego, development, identity formation, self-esteem, pubertal development, cognitive development, deviant behavior, religiosity, and academic achievement), but as a whole they illustrate some of the key theoretical and methodological trends occuring in parent-adolescent research. Several of the chapters consider the interface between components of the family environment (e.g., the marital and parental systems) or between the family and other social contexts (e.g., peers, school, religion). Methodologically, this set of chapters give an interesting sampling of the variability in design and data analysis used in parent-adolescent studies. Designs include both cross-sectional and longitudinal survey, observation, and case study. This volume should be useful to scholars, graduate students, and professionals interested in adolescent development and behavior in the context of the family and other social environments.

Book Parental Belief Systems

Download or read book Parental Belief Systems written by Irving E. Sigel and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on the topic of parent beliefs, or parent cognition, has increased tremendously since the original publication of this volume in 1985. For this revised second edition, the editors sought to reflect some of the new directions that research on parent cognition has taken. By offering a greater variety of topics, it gives evidence of the intellectual concerns that now engage researchers in the field and testifies to the expanding scope of their interests. Although a unique collection because it reflects the diversity that exists among major researchers in the field, it evinces a common theme -- that the ideas parents have regarding their children and themselves as parents have an impact on their actions. This emphasis on parents' ideas shifts the focus on sources of family influence to ideas or beliefs as determinants of family interactions. The implication of this way of thinking for practitioners is that it suggests the shift to ideas and thoughts from behavior and attitudes.

Book Parents  Children  and Adolescents

Download or read book Parents Children and Adolescents written by Anne Marie Ambert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-18 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parents, Children, and Adolescents presents an integrative perspective of the parent-child relationship within several contexts. You can expand your empirical and theoretical knowledge of the parent-child relationship and child development through the book’s unusually holistic, theoretical perspective that integrates three main frameworks: interactional theories on parents, children, and development; contextual (ecological) models; and behavior genetics. This insightful book’s empirical scope is broader than that of most books in that it considers the parent-child relationship throughout the life course as well as within a great variety of contexts, including interactions with sibling and peers, at school, in their neighborhoods, and with professionals. You’ll gain immeasurable knowledge about: parents’child-rearing styles and how they are affected by environmental variables the interaction between parents and children, and between their personalities behavior genetics as one of the explanatory frameworks for the role of genetics and environment negative child outcomes--emotional problems, conduct disorders, and delinquency poverty and other stressors affecting parents and children problematic-abusive, emotionally disturbed, alcoholic parents siblings and peers as contexts for the parent-child dyad the effect of the school system on the family, with a focus on minority families family structure--divorce, remarriage, and families headed by never-married mothers adolescent mothers and their own mothers the psychogenetic limitations on parental influence and cultural roadblocks to parental moral authority Complete with an Instructor’s Manual, Parents, Children, and Adolescents is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate classes in family studies and human development, sociology of the family, interdisciplinary developmental psychology, and social work classes that need a thorough perspective on the parent-child relationship. Professionals and scholars in these fields seeking an interdisciplinary framework as well as research suggestions and incisive critiques of traditional perspectives will also find this innovative book a valuable addition to their reading lists.

Download or read book Parents Development written by Linda G Schwartz and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-05-22 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parent-child relationships are among the most important relationships for teenagers. Teenage/adolescence is a period of rapid biological, cognitive, and neurological changes, which have a salient impact on psychosocial functioning and relationships. During adolescence/teenage, parent-child relationships are thought to become more equal, interdependent, and reciprocal, changes that co-occur with a temporary decrease in the quality of the relationship and an increase in conflict. Indeed, adolescents report that their parents are less supportive in early to middle adolescence, and they gradually perceive their parents as less powerful and controlling over the course of adolescence. In this book, I review theories and empirical evidence of development in parent-adolescent relationships, highlighting change and continuity. I address the role of short-term dyadic processes during conflict interactions in parent-adolescent relationships. Although I focus on developmental changes, most studies of parent-adolescent relationships examine ties between mothers and their adolescent children.

Book Adolescent Relations with Mothers  Fathers and Friends

Download or read book Adolescent Relations with Mothers Fathers and Friends written by James Youniss and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a companion piece and extension of an earlier analysis of parent and friend relations, their structure and functions in children's social and personal development (James Youniss, Parents and Peers in Social Development: A Sullivan-Piaget Perspective, University of Chicago Press, 1980) The present book focuses on adolescents in these same relations. It presents two kinds of material: first, adolescents' own descriptions of interactions they have had in these relations, and second, theory regarding what these relations are and how they contribute to development. As before, relations are treated in the ideal typical sense as descriptions are synthesized across subjects to yield average charateristics that define structure.

Book Social Influences and Socialization in Infancy

Download or read book Social Influences and Socialization in Infancy written by S. Feinman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How are we to understand the complex forces that shape human behav ior? A variety of diverse perspectives, drawing on studies of human behavioral ontogeny, as well as humanity's evolutionary heritage, seem to provide the best likelihood of success. It is in an attempt to synthesize such potentially disparate approaches to human development into an integrated whole that we undertake this series on the genesis of beh- ior. In many respects, the incredible burgeoning of research in child development over the last two decades or so seems like a thousand lines of inquiry spreading outward in an incoherent starburst of effort. The need exists to provide, on an ongoing basis, an arena of discourse within which the threads of continuity among those diverse lines of research on human development can be woven into a fabric of meaning and under standing. Scientists, scholars, and those who attempt to translate their efforts into the practical realities of the care and guidance of infants and children are the audience that we seek to reach. Each requires the oppor tunity to see-to the degree that our knowledge in given areas per mits-various aspects of development in a coherent, integrated fashion. It is hoped that this series-which brings together research on infant biology, developing infant capacities, animal models, and impact of so cial, cultural, and familial forces on development, and the distorted products of such forces under certain circumstances-serves these important social and scientific needs.

Book Family Life in Adolescence

Download or read book Family Life in Adolescence written by Patricia Noller and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many parents fear the time when their beautiful happy children will become unmanageable adolescents continually engaging in risky or destructive behaviour. Unfortunately, this view of adolescents is the focus of the media, even though it relates to just a small proportion of young people. As the large amount of research we report shows, most adolescents are responsible young people who care about their families and crave the support of their parents. It is also true, however, as much research indicates, that the quality of the relationship parents have with their adolescents is crucial to the wellbeing of those young people. We discuss the need for parents to set reasonable limits on their adolescents and to expect appropriate behavior. We also show, on the basis of research, that children who have experienced positive, caring relationships with their parents are more likely than other adolescents to behave responsibly. In other words, behavior in adolescence does not ‘come out of nowhere’ but builds on earlier experiences in the family. Because of the large amount of research reported in this volume, we expect that it will be useful to practitioners from a range of professions that are likely to focus on adolescents: social workers, youth leaders, welfare workers, religious leaders, psychologists and psychiatrists and contribute to a better understanding of young people and their development, and the importance of families to that development.

Book Parent adolescent Relationships  Education and Health

Download or read book Parent adolescent Relationships Education and Health written by Riley Whiting and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The connection between education and health has repeatedly been documented in research. From a systemic perspective there are many influences which could be accounting for this association, one key area being the parent-adolescent relationship. Parent-adolescent relationships have independently been associated with educational attainment as well as physical and mental health outcomes. The prospective study, the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 cohort (n = 8,984; 52% white, 26% Black, 21% Hispanic 1% mixed race) was used to estimate the connections between parent-adolescent relationship quality in 1997, mental health in 2000, and physical health in 2009 and overall educational attainment. Results from path models suggested that the quality of the parent-adolescent relationship was a significant positive predictor of educational attainment and health. Findings provide an important perspective to understand how relationships may affect mental health, education and physical health over time. This information will inform researchers, clinicians, educators, and healthcare professionals in prioritizing and further understanding the importance of parent-child relationships, and how these variables influence long-term outcomes into adulthood.

Book Parent adolescent Relationships

Download or read book Parent adolescent Relationships written by Andrea Dawn Dickerson and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research measured the perceived change in communication and closeness between adolescents and their parents after four weeks in an adolescent residential chemical dependency treatment program. Each of the adolescents was involved in an adolescent residential chemical dependency treatment program and met diagnostic criteria for substance dependence prior to admittance into the treatment program. The adolescents participated in this research study by completing questionnaires before and after the treatment program. Before the treatment program, the adolescents completed questionnaires measuring their perception of their parent-adolescent communication, parent-adolescent closeness, a demographic questionnaire, and an open-ended question. During the second testing, four weeks later after the treatment program, the adolescents again completed the questionnaires measuring parent-adolescent communication and closeness and the open-ended question along with a questionnaire measuring the perceived changes in the quality of their parent-adolescent relationship after four weeks of treatment. Paired sample t-tests were used to compare pre-test responses to post-test responses. Independent samples t-tests were used to compare mean scores for those who completed the post-test with those who did not complete the post-test and to compare pre-test and post-test mean scores of the participants who completed the post-test based on their parents' attendance in the weekly multi-family therapy group. Although there was a significant loss of participants from the pre-test to the post-test, much of the data indicated a positive change after four weeks. When comparing the pre-test responses to post-test responses, significant changes were reported based on the parents attendance in the weekly multi-family therapy group. By gathering information about the changes within the parent-adolescent relationship, researchers, therapists, and social service workers will better understand the substance dependent adolescent population and their families. Additionally, areas of treatment programs that are not effective may be altered and funding sources will recognize the importance of family therapy and place more emphasis on funding family therapy within chemical dependency treatment.
