Book excerpt: The present study used longitudinal data to quantify the psychological relationship between marital spiritual intimacy and three coparenting processes. Spiritual intimacy within a marriage is characterized by the quality and quantity of disclosures surrounding religious and spiritual issues and the degree to which these disclosures are met with empathetic support. The subjective experience of spiritual intimacy within a marital relationship is a combination of willingness to disclose and warmth upon reception of disclosure for both spouses. As the 164 married couples who participated in this study underwent the transition to first-time parenthood, they were assessed using self-report measures of marital spiritual intimacy as well as coparenting solidarity, support, and undermining. Solidarity and support refer to aspects of the degree in which a spouse feels like an encouraged member of a unified coparenting team. Meanwhile,undermining coparenting encapsulates behaviors and words that spouses may or may not employ that have the effect of damaging their spouse's self-confidence about parenting choices or causing one to doubt the level of support they are receiving from their partner. At three time points (3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post birth), couples' felt levels of spiritual intimacy and coparenting support, solidarity, and undermining were assessed. Using fixed effects regression, stable and unchanging characteristics about each participant were functionally eliminated when examining links over time between marital spiritual intimacy and coparenting processes. As expected, marital spiritual intimacy predicted higher levels of coparenting support and solidarity, and lower levels of undermining coparenting processes. The construct of spiritual intimacy is a largely un-examined variable in the psychological literature that could prove to be a potent predictor of adaptive marital, parental, and coparental outcomes.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research regarding marital adjustment during the transition to parenthood has demonstrated that couples experience greater conflict, poorer conflict resolutions skills, and increases in other factors associated with negative communication patterns (e.g., Belsky, Lang, & Rovine, 1985; Belsky & Pensky, 1988; Belsky & Rovine, 1990; Belsky, Spanier, & Rovine, 1983). However, little is known about how new parents use more positive forms of communication during what can be a joyous yet trying transition. Using a sample of 164 married couples during the transition to parenthood, this study used longitudinal data to: 1) examine the trajectory of observed emotional intimacy skills during 10-minute videotaped interactions regarding vulnerable disclosures about becoming new parents and 2), to determine how spiritual variables regarding marriage (i.e. sanctification of marriage, spiritual intimacy, and spiritual one-upmanship) impact emotional intimacy over time. Using the multi-level dyadic discrepancy approach to growth curve modeling, it was determined that both husbands’ and wives’ observed emotional intimacy occurred in a curvilinear trajectory over the first year of parenthood. Additionally, there was a significant gender difference in that wives displayed more emotionally intimate behaviors than husbands. Furthermore, as expected higher reports of sanctification of marriage and spiritual intimacy predicted higher scores of observed emotional intimacy, but unexpectedly spiritual-one-upmanship did not correlate with emotional intimacy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines family interactions and relationships during the transition to parenthood. It offers a unique integration of different lines of research on prenatal family dynamics contributed by leading family researchers in North America and Europe who use observational approaches to study emergent family processes. The book explores prenatal dynamics in diverse families, including adolescent couples, same-sex couples, couples experiencing infertility, and couples expecting their second child. The introduction, anchored in family systems and structural theories, provides an overview of challenges couples commonly experience during the transition to parenthood and details prenatal family processes that predict postpartum adjustment in families. This sets the stage for subsequent chapters by emphasizing unparalleled windows into prenatal family dynamics provided by direct observation. Initial chapters focus on predictors of prenatal interactions and partners’ representations of parenthood. Subsequent chapters describe original research on prebirth couple interactions and the coparenting relationship emerging during pregnancy. The volume includes several studies that rely on innovative research designs using observations of simulated couple encounters with their newborn, represented by a life-sized infant doll. The book concludes with a review of recent prenatal intervention programs designed to improve interpersonal and coparenting relationships of married and unmarried couples. The volume offers recommendations for future research on prenatal family dynamics, including suggestions for methodological advances, exploration of prenatal risk factors, expansion of conceptual models to incorporate culturally-meaningful coparents besides mothers and fathers, and further focus on prenatal intervention programs. This book is an essential resource for researchers, clinicians and professionals, and graduate students in the fields of infant mental health/early child development, family studies, pediatrics, developmental psychology, public health, social work, and early childhood education.

Book excerpt: "Over a seven-year period, Dr. Jay Belsky, a professor of human development at Penn State University, conducted a major study of 250 couples entering the transition to parenthood - the period that runs from the third trimester of pregnancy to the child's third birthday. His conclusion: The birth of a child is one of the greatest challenges to a couple's marriage - financially, emotionally, physically, and sexually. For many new parents, the impact is supremely negative: The workload at home increases, with women resenting the heavy new burden; communication between husband and wife diminishes and may never be the same again; sex may all but disappear. Yet for other couples, the marriage survives and is even strengthened." "By examining the experiences of three representative couples, The Transition to Parenthood defines the qualities and capacities couples need to navigate the transition successfully. Couples will find the answers to questions that plague them during the transition, and will take comfort in knowing that they are not alone in feeling lost and confused during a time that they had expected to be one of blissful contentment."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: This Element provides a comprehensive yet concise account of scientific research on children's religious and spiritual (RS) development. After providing a historical sketch of definitional issues in the science of RS, the first section reviews basic descriptive information on children's RS development as well as wholistic theoretical models and measures of children's RS development. The second section covers evidence about links of child and parental RS to children's psychosocial adjustment, and highlights the need for more research that discriminates specific positive and negative manifestations of RS for children's development. The third section summarizes evidence about the robust influence of parents on their children's RS development and parents' perceptions of their role in this process. The fourth section focuses on cognitive-developmental research on children's cognitions about God/deities and prayer. The Element concludes with a synopsis of key themes and challenges that researchers face to advance the science of children's RS development.

Book excerpt: A companion volume to Family Observational Coding Systems, this book moves from the triad to the dyad and provides a showcase for significant developments in the coding of intimate couple interactions. The hope is that this book will contribute to the broadening and deepening of the field by disseminating information both about the coding systems that have been developed, as well as the conceptual and methodological issues involved in couple observational research. The first three chapters present overviews of conceptual and methodological issues in the study of couple processes. The remaining chapters describe contributions to the field by 16 teams of researchers. Each chapter provides information about the conceptual underpinnings and structure of the coding system developed by the authors and evidence for its psychometric properties. Couple Observational Coding Systems will be of interest to researchers studying couple interactions as well as clinicians who work with couples.

Book excerpt: This highly anticipated third edition of the Handbook of Parenting brings together an array of field-leading experts who have worked in different ways toward understanding the many diverse aspects of parenting. Contributors to the Handbook look to the most recent research and thinking to shed light on topics every parent, professional, and policy maker wonders about. Parenting is a perennially "hot" topic. After all, everyone who has ever lived has been parented, and the vast majority of people become parents themselves. No wonder bookstores house shelves of "how-to" parenting books and magazine racks in pharmacies and airports overflow with periodicals that feature parenting advice. However, almost none of these is evidence-based. The Handbook of Parenting is. Period. Each chapter has been written to be read and absorbed in a single sitting, and includes historical considerations of the topic, a discussion of central issues and theory, a review of classical and modern research, and forecasts of future directions of theory and research. Together, the five volumes in the Handbook cover Children and Parenting, the Biology and Ecology of Parenting, Being and Becoming a Parent, Social Conditions and Applied Parenting, and the Practice of Parenting. Volume 5, The Practice of Parenting, describes the nuts-and-bolts of parenting as well as the promotion of positive parenting practices. Parents meet the biological, physical, and health requirements of children. Parents interact with children socially. Parents stimulate children to engage and understand the environment and to enter the world of learning. Parents provision, organize, and arrange their children’s home and local environments and the media to which children are exposed. Parents also manage child development vis-à-vis childcare, school, the circles of medicine and law, as well as other social institutions through their active citizenship. The chapters in Part I, on Practical Parenting, review the ethics of parenting, parenting and the development of children's self-regulation, discipline, prosocial and moral development, and resilience as well as children’s language, play, cognitive, and academic achievement and children’s peer relationships. The chapters in Part II, on Parents and Social Institutions, explore parents and their children’s childcare, activities, media, schools, and healthcare and examine relations between parenthood and the law, public policy, and religion and spirituality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the fact that most people become parents and everyone who has ever lived has had parents, parenting remains a mystifying subject about which almost everyone has opinions, but about which few people agree. Striking permutations on the theme of parenting are emerging--single parenthood, blended families, lesbian and gay parents, and teen versus fifties first-time moms and dads. Divided into four volumes, the Handbook of Parenting is concerned with different types of parents, basic characteristics of parenting, forces that shape parenting, problems faced by parents, and the practical sides of parenting. Contributors have worked in different ways toward understanding all of these diverse aspects of parenting and look to the most recent research and thinking in the field to shed light on many topics every parent has wondered about. Because development is too subtle, dynamic, and intricate to admit that parental caregiving alone determines the course and outcome of ontogeny, volume 1 concerns how children influence parenting. Volume 2 relates parenting to its biological roots and sets parenting in its ecological framework. Volume 3 distinguishes among the cast of characters responsible for parenting and is revealing of the psychological make-ups and social interests of those individuals. Volume 4 describes problems of parenting as well as the promotion of positive parenting practices. Written to be read and absorbed in a single sitting, each chapter addresses a different but central topic in parenting, and is rooted in current thinking and theory as well as classic and modern research on that topic. All chapters follow a standard organization including an introduction to the chapter as a whole followed by historical considerations of the topic, a discussion of central issues and theory, a review of classic and modern research, forecasts of future directions for theory and research, and a conclusion. In addition to considering their own convictions and research, the chapter contributors present and broadly interpret all major points of view and central lines of inquiry.
