The Marital Selflessness Scale
Spirituality is an important factor in couples’ therapy, yet few tools exist for therapists to utilize in the context of couples therapy. The Marital Selflessness Scale (MSS), a dyadic measure is designed to assess the construct of unconditional marital love form a Christian social context.

Evaluation of the Healthcare Cost Offsets of Mend
Behavioral and physical health integration has been shown to be beneficial for overall health outcomes, as well as financial benefits. The current research clearly shows benefits, but lacks evidence specific to couples and family therapy (CFT) as a medium or profession within mental health integrated sites. This study tests the cost offsets of Mastering Each New Directions (MEND), a family system psychosocial approach to chronic illness (CI). Usi…
Development and Psychometric Evaluation of the PrEP Sexual Expectancies (PSEXS) Scale
Multidimensional Resilience
Few measures parallel the robust depth offered in the existing multidimensional and ecologically informed theories of resilience. This study sought to evaluate the test–retest reliability, construct, and predictive validity of the individual, family, and community resilience resource profile (IFCR-R). The IFCR-R measures a family’s access to resilience resources and protective factors across multiple ecological levels. Confirmatory factor analysi…
Developmental Pedagogy in Marriage and Family Therapy Education
As new practice domains open up for practitioners of family therapy in the medical, organizational, and human relations fields, family therapy educators and supervisors are required to cross the epistemological spaces of scientist‐practitioner, postmodernism, and critical theory. These new possibilities challenge family therapy educators to become comfortable moving between multiple epistemologies and require a hybridization of knowledge and peda…
Exploring the Relationship Balance Assessment
Assessments of power in couples' relationships often only survey one partner, but they do not take into consideration both partners' perceptions. Thus, many assumptions about power and equality in relationships have not been quantitatively tested due to a lack of dyadic measures of power. Therefore, the purpose of the Gender and Relationships Study was to develop and test a new scale of equality and relative power for couples, the Relationship Ba…

Relational spirituality and depression among married couples in Antigua

However, the mechanisms by which spirituality/religion impacts mental health have not been clearly identified particularly in non-western populations. Relational spirituality is a concept that focuses attention on the ways people relate to the sacred…

Multidimensional Family Resilience Assessment
The goal of this study was to develop a broad, multidimensional assessment of individual, family, and community resilience for use in evaluating socioeconomic mobility programs. The Individual, Family, and Community Resilience Profile (IFCR) is a broad, multidimensional measure that evaluates multiple ecological levels of resilience. Based on a sample of 650 low-income families, this study demonstrates the initial reliability of the 75-item IFCR.…

Changing economic times and government policies are reshaping the way the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides services nationwide; there is both a growing demand for housing and a desire to help families become self-sufficient. In this study, the authors examined factors that contribute to increased socioeconomic mobility through the lens of family resilience. Analyzing cross-sectional data from 411 families in the San…
The roles of social support and family resilience in accessing healthcare and employment resources among families living in traditional public housing communities
This study relied on theories of family resilience to examine and differentiate the roles of community social support and family resilience in regards to access and utilization of healthcare and employment resources for public housing residents. The study assessed 234 public housing residents and used structured regressions to test the role of family resilience, internal and external community social support on outcomes associated with economic m…
Mainstream Fiction, Gay Reviewers, and Gay Male Cultural Politics in the 1970s
An analysis of gay male reviewers' responses to major commercial publishers' expanded offerings of fiction by and about gay people during the 1970s reveals how reviewers constructed a machinery of gay-identified criticism, negotiated new definitions of gay identity, and forged a community of gay intellectuals and authors intent on using their own mainstream success to make evident to all the creativity and value of contemporary gay life. By decad…
