The constructs of parent demographics, parental configurations, parent roles within and outside of the…
From “Bibbid-Bobbidi-Boo” to Scrooge
Disney animated films continue to be a medium viewed by millions of young audiences across the world. As such, Disney content messages – which are often repeatedly viewed by children – and correlating implications should frequently be assessed. The objective for this investigation was to evaluate the portrayal of older adults in more recent Disney animated films (from 2004 to 2016) to provide both an update and comparative analysis to previous ex…

However, a census analysis as to how Disney animated films represent depictions of families has yet to be conducted. To fill this gap, we assessed the qualities of family demographics, structure, and function in a census analysis of 85 Disney animated films f…
Exploring descriptive norms of parent-child communication about pornography among parents of middle-schoolers in the US

In aims of providing groundwork for future parent–child pornography communication investigations, the theory of normative social behavior was used to conduct 33 in-depth interviews with parents of at least one middle-school-aged child in the US. Interviews focused…
