Transcendent Matters: Family Relationships Associated With How One Experiences God, Hilary Dalton
Transcendent Matters: Family Relationships Associated With How One Experiences God, Hilary Dalton
FHSS Mentored Research Conference
For religious families, an important but understudied aspect of spirituality is
how their perceptions of God influence their family lives. Most research

way to further our understanding of the religion-relationships linkage (Mahoney,
2013). Specifically, she has used the concept of relational spirituality …

Implicit Family Process Rules Specific To Eating-Disordered Families, Mallory Rebecca Wolfgramm
Theses and Dissertations
Family environment is a significant factor in the development of eating disorders in young-adult females. Clinical experience, research and theories about eating disorders indicate that constrictive implicit process rules within a family are correlated with eating-disordered families. This study identified implicit family process rules that are unique to eating-disordered families and how well these rules predict membership in eating-disordered and non-eating-disordered families. One hundred and two families (51 eating-disordered and 51 comparison families) participated in the study. Mothers, fathers, young-adult female children, and siblings in each family completed the Family Implicit Rules Profile (FIRP). The design included cluster analysis of …
