Factors Of Resiliency In Adolescents With Divorced Parents: Do Adolescents Who Become Part Of A Blended Family Report More Resilience Than Adolescents With Divorced Parents Who Do Not Become Part Of A Blended Family?, Makenzie Kinloch
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
It is not a surprise that non-traditional families are becoming more common. One of the increasingly prevalent forms of non-traditional families are blended families. Adolescents who have gone through parental divorce are faced with unique challenges as they must navigate a changing family structure, and possibly entering into a blended family. This research proposal aims to examine resilience within adolescents in different family systems, exploring if adolescents who have gone through a parental divorce yet not blended with any other family report more resilience than adolescents who have gone through a parental divorce but who have blended with another family.
Attachment Styles And Perceived Parental Acceptance And Rejection Of Sexual Orientation In Lgbq Individuals, Emily Grossmann, Michelle Tran
Attachment Styles And Perceived Parental Acceptance And Rejection Of Sexual Orientation In Lgbq Individuals, Emily Grossmann, Michelle Tran
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Individuals who identify as LGBQ can face challenges with social acceptance. This study seeks to measure the relationship between sexual orientation and attachment style, and how parental response to coming out as non-heterosexual might impact this relationship. Participants completed an online survey measuring adult attachment via the Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R) and perceived parental acceptance or rejection via the Parental Acceptance and Rejection of Sexual Orientation Scale (PARSOS). The authors posit that perceived parental acceptance serves as a protective factor for attachment insecurity and explore Emotionally Focused Therapy as a treatment to increase attachment security in LGBQ individuals.
An Argument For Marriage And Family Therapy Treatment Of Grief With Adolescent Clients, Nicole Wilson, Boone Butler
An Argument For Marriage And Family Therapy Treatment Of Grief With Adolescent Clients, Nicole Wilson, Boone Butler
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
This proposal argues when treating adolescents who experience grief, Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) treatment provides more beneficial outcomes for the processing of grief. Previous research suggests that adolescents who experienced exclusively family therapy exhibited decreases in internalizing behavior and their capacity to process their emotions was stronger comparative to their peers. Suggestions for further research to be conducted will prove that compared to individual therapy, MFT is more efficacious in treating adolescent grief. Further research suggestions include the utilization of Beck’s Depression Inventory and a comparative analysis of paired data between two groups – MFT treatment versus individual treatment.
The Efficacy Of Virtual And In-Person Treatment Of Substance Use, And Mediating Effects Of Social Connection, Nga Chi Wong, Cody Moberg
The Efficacy Of Virtual And In-Person Treatment Of Substance Use, And Mediating Effects Of Social Connection, Nga Chi Wong, Cody Moberg
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Telehealth increases accessibility of treatment for SUD patients who need the social connection but do not have access to a treatment facility due to financial, geographical or other limitations. However, empirical evidence is needed to validate the efficacy of virtual SUD treatment as well as explore the mediation effects of social connection. We hope to carry out a quantitative longitudinal cohort study by looking at treatment outcomes between two groups of adults randomly assigned to in-person or virtual SUD treatment. We will then reassess the occurrence of drug use to understand any longitudinal differences and mediation effect of social connection.
Child-Parent Family Therapy And Conflict With A Romantic Partner, Ethan Blackstone, Mike San Martino
Child-Parent Family Therapy And Conflict With A Romantic Partner, Ethan Blackstone, Mike San Martino
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
This study aims to show a correlation between family therapy with an adult child and their caregiver, and conflict in romantic relationships. The study will take place at a community mental health center clinic, aiming at a population that already plans to receive therapy. Conflict will be measured on a scale to determine if there is a change before and after therapy. If a connection is established, this study will help to further emphasize how relationships within a system can have an important impact on other relationships within the same system, even if it is indirectly.
Comfort In Mental Health Treatment For Transgender And Gender Nonconforming Individuals, Alex Rabern
Comfort In Mental Health Treatment For Transgender And Gender Nonconforming Individuals, Alex Rabern
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) people often encounter insensitive treatment in health care settings (Gessner et al, 2020). TGNC patients or clients are then more likely to avoid going to the doctor or seeking out therapy (Puckett et al, 2018). Health care professionals report a lack of education or training in how to be more sensitive (Carabez et al, 2016). This study focuses on providing the reportedly missing training to marriage and family therapists, to increase TGNC client comfort in participating in therapy. A training seminar, based on available models of TGNC sensitivity (Kort, 2018), will be provided to a …
Exploring Loneliness In Committed Relationships: What Role Does Quality Of Relationship Play?, Amanda Mcgovern, Kate Belbutoski
Exploring Loneliness In Committed Relationships: What Role Does Quality Of Relationship Play?, Amanda Mcgovern, Kate Belbutoski
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Loneliness is an aspect of the human experience that has garnered increasing attention as links between loneliness and negative health outcomes have been discovered across medical and mental health fields. Research on loneliness has highlighted relationship status as a prominent influencing factor on individual’s experiences of loneliness, underscoring findings that those in more committed relationships may experience less loneliness. This has clinical implications for therapists, particularly those working with couples who might assume that individuals in committed relationships are unlikely to experience loneliness because of their committed relationship status. This study focuses on the experience of loneliness in committed relationships …
Treatment Of Female Anorgasmia Using Narrative Therapy And Therapeutic Masturbation – A Practice-Based Study, Leslie Martin
Treatment Of Female Anorgasmia Using Narrative Therapy And Therapeutic Masturbation – A Practice-Based Study, Leslie Martin
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
This research study will use a practice-based model to explore orgasm and sexual pleasure with female clients who report that they are unable to experience an orgasm. By thickening their definitions and stories around orgasm and pleasure; and by engaging in therapeutic masturbation weekly between sessions, clients will experience increased pleasure and orgasm. The use of a guided therapeutic masturbation exercise is used from Emily Nagaski’s book Come As You Are. And quantitative data will be gathered using questions 11, 12, 13, and 16, from an adapted version of the Female Sexual Functioning Inventory.
Anjaneyasana: Yoga As An Intervention For Sexual Shame, Caitlin Minniear, Kathy Smith
Anjaneyasana: Yoga As An Intervention For Sexual Shame, Caitlin Minniear, Kathy Smith
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
While literature exists about the benefits of yoga through mindfulness, and on mindfulness and sex, little is known about the use of yoga as an intervention to promote healthy female sexuality. This study will explore the efficaciousness of yoga in reducing sexual shame. Data from 60 female participants will be collected via surveys. Using statistical analyses, changes in participants levels of sexual shame and sexual enjoyment will be examined as impacted by weekly yoga practice with an emphasis on body awareness, relaxation, and body positivity. We hypothesize a negative correlation between a weekly yoga practice and feelings of sexual shame …
Are You Satisfied? Examining The Association Between Marital Satisfaction, Parental Satisfaction, And Satir's Concept Of Congruence., Aaron Abrams, Dominique Washington
Are You Satisfied? Examining The Association Between Marital Satisfaction, Parental Satisfaction, And Satir's Concept Of Congruence., Aaron Abrams, Dominique Washington
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Research demonstrates that marital and parental satisfaction influence each other, as those who have more satisfaction with their marital partners are generally more satisfied in their parenting practices, and vice-versa. Virginia Satir’s concept of congruence is believed to improve relationships. Current researchers propose examining whether congruence, marital satisfaction and parental satisfaction influence each other. Married couples will be given the Bonnie Lee Congruence Scale, Cleminshaw-Guidubaldi Parent Satisfaction Scale, and ENRICH Marital Satisfaction Scale. Researchers hypothesize that there will be a positive three-way interaction between the variables. If the hypotheses are supported, this may further promote teaching congruency in therapeutic settings.
Is Solution Focused Brief Therapy Efficacious In Reducing The Incidence Of Sibling Violence?, Quantas Ginn, Allison Sturges
Is Solution Focused Brief Therapy Efficacious In Reducing The Incidence Of Sibling Violence?, Quantas Ginn, Allison Sturges
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
This study aims to explore the efficacy of Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) in reducing the incidence of sibling violence. To limit variables, this qualitative study will survey 60 King County elementary and middle schoolers between the ages 9-12 who currently inflict violence upon a sibling. Subjects will participate in 8 individual sessions while parents will provide feedback on subject’s behavior at home. Using a modified Conflicts Tactics Scale (CTS1-m) and a modified Parent Daily Report (PDR-m) to measure efficacy, we hypothesize that SFBT will be found to be effective in the reduction of sibling violence.
Religiosity And Experiences Of Sexual Shame: An Exploratory Latent Class Analysis Study, Megan Hiser, Lauren Dudugjian
Religiosity And Experiences Of Sexual Shame: An Exploratory Latent Class Analysis Study, Megan Hiser, Lauren Dudugjian
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
While the relationship between religion and sexual shame has been increasingly discussed, there has yet to be a study examining this relationship (Schermer-Sellers, 2017). This study aims to explore potential relationships between experiences of sexual shame (Clark, 2017) and religiosity. Latent class analysis was used to assess categorical indicators of sexual shame as found by Clark et al. (2017) and present and historical religious exposure. Covariates of membership were explored. The research aims to provide grounds for exploration of experiences of sexual shame nuanced by religion and empower clinicians to assist clients navigating experiences of sexuality, shame, and religion.
Couple Relationships, Secondary Traumatic Stress, And Burnout In A Sample Of Marriage And Family Therapists, Gretchen Hoyum, Stephanie Armes
Couple Relationships, Secondary Traumatic Stress, And Burnout In A Sample Of Marriage And Family Therapists, Gretchen Hoyum, Stephanie Armes
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Secondary traumatic stress (STS) occurs when a helping professional hears about a client’s trauma and develops symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; Bride et al., 2004). Previous research has shown that social support can decrease rates of STS in healthcare providers. This study includes data from a larger project of Marriage and Family Therapists (MFTs; N= 200). We explored correlations between STS, burnout, and MFTs’ couple relationship factors. Findings indicated a negative correlation between couple relationship satisfaction and burnout (r = -.17; p < .05), as well as perceived support from partners and STS (r = -.19; p < .01). The findings suggest that MFTs’ positive couple relationships could be a protective factor in lowering levels of STS and burnout. We discuss implications for therapists in our poster.
The Moderating Effects Of How Long A Couple Has Been Together On The Relationship Between The Secondary Victim Of Rape And Their Experience Of Couple Satisfaction., Kasey Jahnke, Rose Langston
The Moderating Effects Of How Long A Couple Has Been Together On The Relationship Between The Secondary Victim Of Rape And Their Experience Of Couple Satisfaction., Kasey Jahnke, Rose Langston
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
This study aims to enhance and expand the limited research–primarily international and qualitative–on the relationship between the trauma experience by the secondary victimof rape, and their experience couple satisfaction, using quantitative measures. A slight modification of the Couple Satisfaction Index will be used to measure this. We are limiting our variables by focusing on secondary victims that have been with their intimate partner for at least 6 months at the time of rape, and are 18 years of age and older. The population will be taken from working in connection with sexual assault research centers online. One hypothesis is the …
Premarital Therapy: Is It For Everyone Or Certain Personality Types?, Alex Ius, Olivia Waham
Premarital Therapy: Is It For Everyone Or Certain Personality Types?, Alex Ius, Olivia Waham
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
This research proposal looks at the intersection of common personality traits and couples who have or plan to engage in premarital counseling or education. To test our hypothesis, we will use the 5 Factor Personality Test along with a general demographic survey. Our sample size consists of 500 couples ranging from ages 20 to 29 years old, with each couple being either engaged or already married and having participated in premarital therapy or plan to participate. Our study will provide results that can enhance clinicians’ knowledge on the different kinds of personalities that are wanting to participate in premarital counseling.
Apart But Together: Telehealth During A Pandemic., Allison Davis
Apart But Together: Telehealth During A Pandemic., Allison Davis
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Though telehealth has existed for many years, it has largely not been accepted. Due to COVID-19, therapy must change to accommodate societal needs. This adoption of telehealth raises questions on effectiveness, side effects, and applications. These questions are addressed through a review of the current literature. Trials applying telehealth demonstrate the striking effectiveness of online healthcare in a variety of cases. Some benefits show reduced travel stress and expenses, lending a broader availability regarding lower socioeconomic status. Moving forward from this crisis, healthcare delivery must be rebuilt to create a new system to addresses the needs of modern society.

Centering Children In Co-Parenting, Kristen L. Wiidanen
Centering Children In Co-Parenting, Kristen L. Wiidanen
University Honors Theses
Comprehensive systems theory identifies several associated risk factors and consequences of separation but, research suggests that legal divorce itself has few direct effects on children. While there is diversity in children’s responses to separation, generally associated risk factors are behavioral disruptions, emotional upheaval, anger, resentment, anxiety, guilt and depression. Parents abilities to cope with their divorce are critical to the child’s adjustment and, if parents are able to control their feelings toward their ex-spouse, cooperate in parenting, negotiate differences, and settle their quarrels in privacy, their children will show fewer social and emotional problems. It is expected that the curriculum …
Relationships For Social Change: A Longitudinal Examination Of A Promotora-Led Program For Socioeconomic Mobility, Dayanne Assunção Vieira Carter
Relationships For Social Change: A Longitudinal Examination Of A Promotora-Led Program For Socioeconomic Mobility, Dayanne Assunção Vieira Carter
Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
Since the 1960s federal and local initiatives have been put in place to decrease the staggering socioeconomic disparities in the United States. Considerable debate has been fueled by the conception of adequate solutions to address the employment crisis (Kregel, 2011). Despite the increase in supportive services made available to the public, low-income families continue to face distinct challenges that limit employment and vocational opportunities (Athreya & Romero, 2015; Crouter & Booth, 2014; Presser, 2014), a situation particularly true for ethnic minorities navigating the systems of employment in the US (Fullerton & Anderson 2013; Mazumder, 2011). The purpose of this study …
#Thisiswhatanxietyfeelslike: Twitter Users’ Narratives About The Interpersonal Effects Of Anxiety, Raechel B. Russo
#Thisiswhatanxietyfeelslike: Twitter Users’ Narratives About The Interpersonal Effects Of Anxiety, Raechel B. Russo
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Tweets containing the popular hashtag #ThisIsWhatAnxietyFeelsLike were analyzed in this study. Six themes emerged from our phenomenological analysis of relational experiences with anxiety as conveyed by the Twitter users including: (a) deflated self in relation to others and their perceptions; (b) fear, worry and avoidance behaviors that influence relationships; (c) negative emotional responses leading to feeling misunderstood, lonely, and like a failure (self-fulfilling prophecy); (d) social triggers; (e) anxiety management strategies; and (f) things for others to avoid. This paper will highlight how anxiety symptoms affect relationships and interactions with others, and implications for clinical work and future research.
Impact Of Rational And Experiential Thinking Styles On Interpersonal Conflict Resolution Among Young Adults, Ayesha Rafique, Hania Habib, Fariha Abdul Rehman, Shabnam Arshi
Impact Of Rational And Experiential Thinking Styles On Interpersonal Conflict Resolution Among Young Adults, Ayesha Rafique, Hania Habib, Fariha Abdul Rehman, Shabnam Arshi
Journal of Mind and Medical Sciences
This research aimed to find the relationship between thinking styles (rational or experiential) and interpersonal conflict resolution (ICR) in young adults. A sample of 99 females and 103 males, age range 18 to 40 years, was selected via convenient and snow-ball sampling. Thinking styles were assessed using Rational-Experiential Inventory-40, and ICR was measured using Conflict Resolution Questionnaire. Regression analysis was used to predict ICR based on thinking style covariates and several relevant demographic covariates, including gender and family birth order. Rational thinking style (RTS) was most prevalent among young adults and was the strongest predictor of ICR. In addition, gender …

Risk Factors, Predictive Markers And Prevention Strategies For Intrauterine Fetal Death. An Integrative Review, Roxana Bohiltea, Natalia Turcan, Christina M. Cavinder, Ionită Ducu, Ioana Paunica, Liliana Florina Andronache, Monica Mihaela Cirstoiu
Journal of Mind and Medical Sciences
According to World Health Organization (WHO), fetal death is defined as the death of the fetus prior to its complete expulsion, independent of the duration of pregnancy, thus only ascribing the term stillbirth to fetal deaths in the case of pregnancies after 28 weeks of gestation. The great progress of perinatology care is reflected in a significant reduction in the rate of stillbirths, especially in well-developed countries, with approximately 98% of stillbirth cases now occurring in poor and developing countries. Stillbirth powerfully impacts both the patient and the practitioner. Because nearly half of stillbirth cases result from apparently uncomplicated pregnancies, …

Anorexia Nervosa And Reproduction: Connecting Brain To Gonads, Mihaela Poterasu, David L. Rowland, Corina Ciobanu, Simona Fica
Journal of Mind and Medical Sciences
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a psychiatric disorder that predominantly affects young women and is characterized by low caloric intake and a major dissatisfaction with one’s body image. It is often overlooked and, while patients and family seek medical help, emaciation and nutritional misbalances may become extreme and potentially life threatening. Among the many somatic complications, an accumulation of early endocrine adaptations occurs, leading to functional amenorrhea and impaired reproduction as a result of dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. Even though these conditions are reversible, long-term consequences may affect the fertility of women with AN and can lead to maternal and …
Relationship Satisfaction & Diet: Exploring The Mechanisms Through Which Intimate Relationships Influence Physical Health, Lindsey Robinson, Dylan Hillock, Dr. Josh Novak
Relationship Satisfaction & Diet: Exploring The Mechanisms Through Which Intimate Relationships Influence Physical Health, Lindsey Robinson, Dylan Hillock, Dr. Josh Novak
Southeastern Council on Family Relations Conference [2018-2020]
Understanding how intimate relationships influence physical health has been an important topic of focus; however, research remains unclear on the mechanisms through which this influence occurs. The purpose of this study was to examine how relationship satisfaction relates to diet quality, through mental health (depression and anxiety) and diet self-efficacy. Using a dyadic mediation model with a sample of 234 heterosexual couples, researchers found that women's higher relationship satisfaction was associated with better diet through lower depression and higher diet self-efficacy. Results revealed the same association between women's relationship satisfaction and diet through lower anxiety. Interestingly, rather than mediation through …

The Sound Of Music: Correlates Of Harmonious Relationships In Stepfamilies, Emily R. Monnik
The Sound Of Music: Correlates Of Harmonious Relationships In Stepfamilies, Emily R. Monnik
Selected Honors Theses
Family structure has always been an integral part of the nurturing of children and adolescents. In the past fifty years, the number of stepfamilies formed after remarriage superseded the number of stepfamilies following the death of a parent. These new stepfamilies contribute to a more challenging adjustment for children and adolescents as they figure out the role the new stepparent plays in their life, in addition to the non-residential biological parent. This study surveyed undergraduate students at a private university in the United States using a positive and negative interaction questionnaire and family harmony measure. The researcher attempted to find …
From Isolation To Communication: Connecting Adults Who Have Hearing Loss With Their Communication Partners, Stephen D. Roberts, Nancy A. Delich
From Isolation To Communication: Connecting Adults Who Have Hearing Loss With Their Communication Partners, Stephen D. Roberts, Nancy A. Delich
JADARA
As Baby Boomers enter the late adulthood stage of life, hearing loss continues to be one of the most prevalent, chronic, and isolating conditions facing older adults today. Research has focused on the negative consequences of hearing loss on the health and the person’s well-being, but it is equally important to recognize that hearing loss also leads to communication loss. The resulting social isolation and the collateral effects of hearing loss on the communication partner are the focus of this mixed-method study that explored the hearing loss-related quality of life for both parties. Five overarching themes emerged from the analysis, …
An Evaluation Of Comprehensive Projects Used In An Expressive Arts Workshop For Cancer Patients And Survivors, Beta S. Abdolahi
An Evaluation Of Comprehensive Projects Used In An Expressive Arts Workshop For Cancer Patients And Survivors, Beta S. Abdolahi
LMU Theses and Dissertations
This research project examines an array of art prompts and projects that have been used in program-based art making workshops to facilitate creative expression amongst those who have been impacted by a cancer diagnosis. The review of literature emphasizes the value of this research, as the field of healing arts programs/expressive arts workshops in cancer care is varied and sparse. While there is substantial research that indicates art therapy to be a highly valued and accepted clinical intervention used in cancer care, there is little research that focuses on the specific role of art making with cancer patients/survivors and even …
