When President Hinckley introduced The Family: A Proclamation to the World, he explained why such emphasis on the importance of the family was needed: “The family is under attack. All across the world families are falling apart. The place to begin to improve society is in the home…We are trying to make the world better by making the family stronger” (Dew, 1997, p. 209). One researcher posed the question: “What is the state of the American family today and how well do these families function?” (Kugath, 1997, p. 1)). In the United States in 1998, 1,135,000 divorces were granted (World …

Mother, a word that brings a surge of affection to every human heart and mind. Certainly everyone is grateful for their mother and all she did to raise them. This study was designed to determine if mothers are truly satisfied with what they are doing-being homemakers-and what factors affect that satisfaction. Does each mother consider staying home and raising her children an accomplishment, or a burden? Does free time play a role in these findings? Studies have shown that homemakers are more likely to suffer from depression than their husbands or other mothers in the workforce. 1 The researcher’s goal …

Peer Inclusion In Family Recreation, Lora Jean Bennion, Dr. Brian Hill
Journal of Undergraduate Research
When the word ‘family’ is mentioned, it brings to mind a different picture to each and every person. What is a family? How do families stay together? How can strong bonds be built between parents and children? The family unit has been a subject of research for many years, but little research has been done in the field of Family Recreation and the effects it has on the family. The study of Family Recreation is important because it is often through this medium that family cohesiveness is developed and maintained.

Exploring The Tools Of Wilderness Therapy, Bridger Jensen, Dr. Keith Barney
Journal of Undergraduate Research
Studies indicate that wilderness therapy programs have remarkable success in promoting positive behavioral changes, particularly among adolescent populations. Such positive change can be found through measuring family relations, drugs and alcohol abuse, success in school work, and social/emotional behavior. After conducting an extensive literature review on wilderness therapy, it was not possible to identify what aspects of wilderness therapy are the most therapeutic and make these programs successful. The purpose of this study is to identify these elements and compile them into a solidified definition of wilderness therapy.

Motivational interviewing has been incorporated in many health care fields and professions (Anstiss, 2009), but has not been fully embraced in the field of Recreational Therapy. The purpose of this project was to explore possible applications and benefits of motivational interviewing in the practice of recreational therapy.

Attachment is an enduring connection established between a child and caregiver in the first several years of life. During this sensitive period, attachment influences every component of the human condition, including, mind, body, emotions, relationship, and values. It has been observed that attachment is a physiological, emotional, cognitive and social phenomenon. Attachment is something that a child and caregiver create together. Attachment disorder results when children fail to develop normal, healthy, and secure attachments to loving, protective caregivers.
