Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work focused on three research questions: (1) Are there differences in the self-concepts of young children of alcoholic parents and young children whose parents are not alcoholics? (2) Are there changes in self-concept in the children of alcoholics before and after a ten-week group therapy intervention? (3) What child, family, and alcohol-related variables may be associated with children who appear to have more resilient self-concept vs children who are at higher risk? The sample included 14 children between age 4 and 12 who were in group therapy due to parental alcoholism and 14 control children of the same ages from the same geographical area. The study was grounded in the developmental psychology models of Susan Harter (1980, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1987) and the social psychology models of Daniel Hart and William Damon (1982, 1986, 1988). Quantitative data were obtained about multiple dimensions of self-concept, using measures developed by Harter and Pike (1980, 1981) and Harter (1985). Demographic data were obtained from a Parent Questionnaire. Qualitative information was obtained from individual interviews with each child in the treatment group, using the Self Understanding Interview (Damon and Hart, 1988). Data analysis was primarily descriptive, due to the small sample size. Type I error was reduced by conducting planned comparisons and identifying significant results only at the p $\leq$.02 level. Quantitative results indicated no significant differences between the youngest children in either group (4 to 7 year-olds). Two significant differences in self-concept dimensions emerged between the older children (8 to 12 year-olds) in the two groups. Older children evaluated themselves as significantly less competent in scholastics and as having significantly more problems with behavioral conduct than the control children. Analyses conducted following group therapy showed that young children defined themselves as higher in physical competence; older children evaluated themselves as significantly higher in athletic competence and physical appearance. Qualitative analyses suggested that multiple child, family, and alcohol-related variables may be associated with more resilient vs more negative self-concept.

Download or read book Perfect Daughters written by Robert Ackerman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of Perfect Daughters, a pivotal book in the ACoA movement, identifies what differentiates the adult daughters of alcoholics from other women. When this groundbreaking book first appeared over ten years ago, Dr. Ackerman identified behavior patterns shared by daughters of alcoholics. Adult daughters of alcoholics—"perfect daughters" —operate from a base of harsh and limiting views of themselves and the world. Having learned that they must function perfectly in order to avoid unpleasant situations, these women often assume responsibility for the failures of others. They are drawn to chemically dependent men and are more likely to become addicted themselves. More than just a text that identifies these behavior patterns, this book collects the thoughts, feelings and experiences of twelve hundred perfect daughters, offering readers an opportunity to explore their own life's dynamics and thereby heal and grow. This edition contains updated information throughout the text, and completely new material, including chapters on eating disorders and abuse letters from perfect daughters in various stages of recovery, and helpful, affirming suggestions from Dr. Ackerman at the end of every chapter. This book is essential for every one who found validation, hope, courage and support in the pages of the original Perfect Daughters, as well as new readers and every therapist who confronts these issues. Also includes: a comprehensive reference section and complete index.

Download or read book Differences in the Self-esteem, Locus of Control and Family of Origin written by Tena Singleton Malone and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alcoholism is one of the prime determinants of the behaviors of a dysfunctional family system. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of alcoholism on self-esteem, locus of control and role designations. The information obtained in this study will be used for guiding differentiated interventions that will assist in keeping the alcoholic family unit intact and improving its functioning. The study investigated: (a) the set of factors that mediate self-esteem, locus of control and family of origin level of functioning, (b) differences between adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOAs) and Adult Children of Non-Alcoholics (ACONAs), and (c) differences among ACOAs on self-esteem, locus of control, and role designations. The participants were members of a church in the northeastern region of the United States which offers counseling services and educational programs to its congregation. The participants are 88 African American adults aged 18-70 years who completed five survey instruments that provided information on parental drinking patterns and experiences, self-esteem, locus of control, family of origin level of functioning and demographics including role designations, gender, marital status, ethnicity, and specific information on alcohol use. The results indicated no significant difference between ACOAs and ACONAs on self-esteem and level of functioning in the family of origin. However, a significant difference was found between ACOAs and ACONAs on locus of control. There was no significant difference between ACOAs and ACONAs family functioning on self esteem and locus of control. There was no significant difference between the 'most healthy' ACOAs and the 'least healthy' ACOAs on self-esteem and locus of control. There was no significant difference between female and male ACOAs on self-esteem and locus of control; no difference between Internal and External ACOAs on self-esteem when the father was alcoholic; and no difference between hero ACOAs and scapegoat ACOAs on self-esteem and locus of control. These findings indicate that parental alcoholism mediates locus of control orientation only for. In addition, family of origin functioning is not a factor in the self-esteem or locus of control of ACOAs. Furthermore, the family of origin level of functioning does not impact the self-esteem and locus of control of ACOAs. It seems that some factor aside from family functioning is mediating self-esteem in ACOAs. The ACOAs are acquiring adaptive behaviors, high self-esteem and internal locus of control for managing their lives despite being reared in an alcoholic home environment and much the same as ACONAs. These adaptive behaviors are mediated by parental involvement, personality, and external social supports. Future investigations should examine parental behaviors, patterns and involvement with the child to determine their impact on locus of control and an investigation of other potential dysfunctional behaviors should also be considered Finally, an examination of the constructs of family or origin functioning should be considered to dispel any doubts about it as a predictor of psychological distress in children reared in an alcoholic home.

Book excerpt: • Has drug or alcohol abuse in your family caused your child to become withdrawn or to act out? • Is addiction in a family member contributing to upset and stress in your child? • Do you want to help your child understand the problem and communicate about his/her feelings? • Do you want to help your child develop healthier coping strategies? I Can Be Me is a helping book for professionals and parents who want to help children of alcoholic parents. Written for children ages 4 to 12, it can be read by a child alone or worked through with a caring adult. Simple line drawings and text speak to children in a language they understand and are based on the real experiences of children with addicted parents. Written from the perspective of children whose parents are addicted to alcohol and various other drugs, this book helps children take off the masks that hide their true feelings and educates them about alcohol or drug abuse in the family. Entertaining drawings and simple text make this book easy to understand and invite children to add their own thoughts and feelings. Children often feel alone in homes where alcoholism or drug abuse is present. I Can Be Me helps children understand more about addiction and realize that they are not to blame for their parents’ problems. Through a series of creative exercises and activities children learn about healthy coping strategies and that they are not alone. Eight separate units make this book an ideal companion to counseling or support group sessions. Parents or counselors can also use a single section to address the unique concerns of an individual child.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the dynamics and characteristics of the alcoholic family. The first part examines the alcoholic family. Needs such as security, love, and self-esteem, and defenses such as denial, rationalization, projection, regression, fantasy, displacement, and avoidance are discussed. Common denominators in the personalities of enablers which facilitate the alcoholic process in family members are identified and discussed. Principle methods of communication in the alcoholic family such as double messages, compartmentalization, arbitrariness, elusiveness, intellectualization, and indifference are examined. The second part looks at alcoholic parents. Traits common to most alcoholics which have an adverse impact on family members, such as impulsivity, low tolerance for frustration, warped perception of time, acute need for short term gratification, and dislike or unhappiness with oneself, are described. The third part of the book examines children of alcoholics. Common characteristics which interfere with their ability to give and receive love as adults, such as constant need for approval, low ability to persevere, inability to trust, unreliability, tendency to lie, attraction to pain, vacillation, inability to get close to others, and terror of being evaluated, are listed and discussed. The fourth part examines the dynamics and effects of single parent alcoholic families, and the fifth part provides a list of do's and don'ts for the non-drinking family members. Case reports are included which demonstrate the characteristics described. (LLL)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social psychologists have always been concerned with two-person interactions and the factors enabling one person to gain dominance. Although social psychology has devised a revolutionary set of techniques to investigate the phenomenon of power, hypotheses are too often ambiguously stated, research programs end in cul-de-sacs, and experiments take on the character of one-shot studies. In an attempt to stimulate new directions in research and to provide cumulative emphasis on the development of scientific theory in the area of power relations, Tedeschi has assembled original and path breaking essays from a dozen outstanding scholars and researchers in the behavioral sciences. More tightly integrated than leading books in the field of power relations, The Social Influence Processes focuses on two-person interactions. A full explanation of the terms "power" and "influence" is followed by an analysis of the major variables in connections between two persons that must be taken into account in a scientific theory of social influence. The subsequent chapters respond to the categories established, attempting a comprehensive construction of social reality and offering suggestions and techniques for measuring and ordering its complexity. Particular areas of research and theory are isolated for consideration in depth--such topics as personality as a power construct (Power and Personality by Henry L. Minton), influence in exchange theory (The Tactical Use of Social Power by Andrew Michener and Robert W. Suchner), and leadership through charisma (Interpersonal Attraction and Social Influence by Elaine Walster and Darcy Abrahams). In the final chapter, Tedeschi, Thomas Bonoma, and Barry R. Schlenker attempt to provide a general theory of social influence processes as they affect the target individual by reviewing the research literature in their own theoretical terms. This remarkable volume will be of interest to students as well
