Book Youth and Their Families

Download or read book Youth and Their Families written by Julie Anne Laser-Maira and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though a number of books covering adolescent substance abuse are available, there are very few resources that explore the topic in the context of Family Systems Therapy (FST). Youth and Their Families offers an expanded view of the therapeutic process with a specific focus on the relationship between therapists, adolescents, families, communities, and substance use. By applying an FST lens, the clinician learns to view their client as an entire family system being affected by adolescent substance abuse. Furthermore, FST can be used at every stage of the substance abuse intervention continuum (from prevention to intervention) to provide increased functioning and strength in the family system. This book incorporates easily applicable clinical skill acquisition with the use of lively cases to give the reader requisite skills to be an effective family systems therapist.

Book The Relationship Between Family Functioning and Adolescent Substance Use

Download or read book The Relationship Between Family Functioning and Adolescent Substance Use written by Vicky R. Bowden and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study utilized an explanatory correlational design to examine the relationship which exists between the predictor variables of adolescent's perception of family adaptation, cohesion, and communication, parental use of substances, adolescent age and gender and the criterion variables of adolescent behavioral intention and self-reported use of alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drugs. The theoretical perspectives of the study, derived from developmental theory and the Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems viewed the adolescent stage as a period in which the entire family is challenged to balance levels of adaptation and cohesion in order to facilitate individuation and autonomy of adolescent members. Use of controlled substances by adolescents are considered behaviors which may be influenced by patterns of interaction within the family system. The sample consisted of 306 male and female high school students. Following consent from the student and at least one parent the adolescent was asked to complete four paper and pencil questionnaires. These questionnaires included the Demographic Survey; the Primary Prevention Awareness, Attitude and Usage Scale; the FACES III; and the Parent-Adolescent Communication Scale. Utilizing measures of central tendency and canonical correlation, the data analysis statistically addressed the relationships between the two variables sets. The findings indicated that balanced levels of family functioning and low usage of substances by parents has a strong relationship with decreased substance use by adolescents. Conversely, non-balanced families and those in which parents use substances more often, are families in which the adolescents are more likely to use substances. Age and gender had no significant relation to adolescent substance use or levels of family functioning. Family adaptation, cohesion and communication, and parental role modeling are variables that appear to have a significant impact upon the decisions adolescents make concerning use of alcohol, tobacco products and illicit drugs.

Book The Effect of Family Functioning on the Relationship Between Paternal Substance Dependence and Adolescent Alcohol UseT

Download or read book The Effect of Family Functioning on the Relationship Between Paternal Substance Dependence and Adolescent Alcohol UseT written by Jillian K. Kamphaus and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This longitudinal study examined whether family functioning moderates the relationship between paternal substance dependence and adolescent alcohol use. At the initial assessment (Time 1) the sample included 249 15-19 year-old adolescents and their fathers. All participants were followed-up 5 years later (Time 2). At both times of assessment, all participants were administered an extensive clinical psychiatric interview. Additionally, the adolescent offspring completed a series of self-report questionnaires regarding their perceived family functioning (at Time 1) and alcohol use (at Time 2). Gender differences were also examined. Results indicated that family functioning partially moderates the relationship between paternal substance dependence and adolescent alcohol use. Specifically, family adaptability moderates the relationship between paternal substance dependence and adolescent boys' frequency of alcohol use to 'get high'/'get drunk'. Results further indicated that family cohesion moderated the relationship between paternal substance dependence and adolescent girls' frequency of alcohol use to 'get high'/'get drunk', and family cohesion and support moderated the relationship between paternal substance dependence and symptoms of alcohol abuse reported by adolescent girls. Findings are discussed in relation to the Family Systems Theory, the Ecological Theory, and Developmental Contextual Theory.

Book The Family Context of Adolescent Drug Use

Download or read book The Family Context of Adolescent Drug Use written by Robert H Coombs and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an essential volume for educators, social workers, health care professionals, and parents who are frustrated by the consuming power of drugs over the lives of young people and looking for answers to this enormous problem. In this unique and highly practical volume, experts concentrate on the family--the foundation of mental health and social control--as the most positive force in the prevention of adolescent drug use. Despite the “war on drugs,” young people in large numbers continue to use substances. This instructive guide focuses on educating and strengthening families--which makes stronger children who are less likely to use drugs--instead of the traditional efforts based on rehabilitation instead of prevention. It offers instructive background information about societal forces that affect families and make it difficult to raise drug-free youngsters. Family differences are discussed, such as family structure, parenting styles, ethnic and cultural characteristics. Contributors thoroughly examine practical, effective interventions--at home, at school, and with peers--that are positive rather than negative, instructional rather than punitive, and preventive instead of remedial.

This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thus, substance-abusing adolescents experiencing inadequate family structure and functioning will be at a serious disadvantage with regard to recovery. Their recovery, however, is likely to be enhanced if family functioning can be improved. Deficits in family functioning may be related to dimensions of authority, roles, boundaries, communication, and routines. Parental authority may be eroded and roles confused; boundaries may be blurred or violated; communication may be dysfunctional and conflict laden; and family structure or routine may be lacking. Inadequate parenting skills or poor understanding of family dynamics may also contribute to a chaotic or otherwise dysfunctional family context.
