Utilizing Bowen Family Systems Theory as a Medical Family Therapist to Promote Biopsychosocial-Spiritual Health Across Clinical Settings
Integrated behavioral health care (IBHC) requires theoretical foundations that translate family systems thinking into day-to-day medical settings. Bowen family systems theory (BFST) provides such a foundation by adding a multigenerational roadmap for practice. This paper delineates how BFST can guide clinicians in IBHC to foster patient and family resilience while supporting interprofessional collaboration. We describe stage-based applications—jo…
Mapping Culture and Sustainability: A Critical Approach to an Abundance of Meanings
The UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) address broad environmental, economic and social sustainability concerns. The inclusion of culture was part of the debate until the adoption of the SDGs in 2015. Among other things, the complexity of the meaning of culture alone, and in combination with sustainability, made this inclusion challenging. Along the way, there have been several attempts to define cultural sustainability and make the compos…
Appropriations of Cultural Sustainability across Research Fields: A Global Scoping Review, 2001–2023
This scoping review examines the growing academic use of the concept cultural sustainability over the past two decades. Based on keyword searches across multiple databases, the study includes 213 peer-reviewed English-language articles published between 2001 and January 2023. It maps the temporal and geographical distribution of the concept, its disciplinary applications, and its varying definitions. Findings show a global increase in usage, with…
Fathers Are Frightened but May Not Know It: Considering Masculinity and Attachment When Working With Fathers in Family Therapy
Given the often‐unacknowledged emotional realities in theory and practice around masculinities and fatherhood, working with fathers in family therapy needs ongoing attention. Therapists' efforts can be enhanced through attending to how men and fathers may have been socialized towards restrictive masculine ideologies (e.g., devaluing emotional experience) and how relevant behavioral patterns, contextualized in gender privilege, are perpetuated thr…
Solution-Focused Therapy in the Medical Family Therapy Field: Adapting Clinical Skills to Different Healthcare Settings
NCAA Student-Athlete Mental Health and Wellness: A Biopsychosocial Examination
Intercollegiate student-athletes, a distinct sub-population of college students accounting for nearly 500,000 individuals across university campuses, may experience greater mental health issues than their non-athlete counterparts. This study examined the differences in student-athlete mental health and wellness by various biopsychosocial factors. Results indicated that female, minoritized, and Division I athletes reported worse mental health conc…
Striving to Thrive: A Qualitative Study on Fostering a Relational Perspective Through Narrative Therapy in Couples Facing Cancer
The present study explored how couples, in which one partner self-reported receiving a medical diagnosis of stage one or two cancer, fostered a relational perspective regarding cancer via narrative therapy interventions. This is a qualitative study with a multiple case study design and thematic analysis. Eight heterosexual couples (N =16) participated in dyadic, researcher-facilitated, audio-recorded therapeutic sessions (i.e., 208 sessions in on…
Museumverse. A New Typology for User Positioning in Museum Dissemination
This article presents a new typology for user positioning in museum dissemination. First, I develop a framework for the typology by identifying relevant, central dimensions and variables within the area of user positioning in museum dissemination. Next, the individual types within the typology is studied and representative cases for each type described. Finally, the conclusion points to different uses and consequences of the typology
Learning through exploration at museum exhibitions
The aim of this article is to discuss the potential of exploration in museum exhibitions as a means of balancing enlightenment and experience. Hypothesizing that exploration can be one approach to dissolving the enlightenment-experience conflict by embedding both aspects within the concept of exploration, users reach enlightenment through explorative experiences. Exploration is discussed, theoretically and empirically, as a structure for creating…
Relationship work among young adult couples: Romantic, social, and physiological considerations
We examined romantic, social, and physiological variables associated with partners discussing romantic challenges together and with friends, a process known as relationship work (RW). Actor‐partner interdependence models examining 71 heterosexual, young adult couples and their friends suggested social network approval, friendship quality, and partners' perspective taking were each associated with partners' RW patterns. Skin conductance activity r…
Should I Stay or Go? Examining Indicators of Relationship Commitment in Aggressive Relationships
The research on the sustainability of aggressive relationships has yet to investigate the way the appraisal process to “settle” (satisfice) or to seek the best option (maximize) in our relationships affects commitment. The purpose of this study was to examine how those who are in aggressive relationships balance relationship commitment with the tendency to satisfice or maximize. Results indicate that satisficing and structural constraints were st…
Evaluating the Utility of MFT Models in the Treatment of Trauma: Implications for Affect Regulation
Young adult females' relationship work and its links to romantic functioning and stability over time
We examined the frequency with which 67 young adult females from the Southeastern U.S. discussed romantic relationship problems with their partners and their best friends, a process referred to as "relationship work" (RW). Results from data collected over two time points revealed that females engage in more frequent RW with partners than with friends and that RW with partners increases over time. Path analyses revealed early RW patterns did not p…
Turning inward versus outward: Relationship work in young adults and romantic functioning
This study examined 106 romantically involved young adults to determine the frequency of disclosure of romantic problems to both partners and best friends and links to romantic functioning. Results revealed females and males did not differ in frequency of this “relationship work” (RW) with either partners or friends and both engaged in more frequent RW with partners. Simple slopes analyses indicated that discussing romantic problems often with a …
Growing old together: Compassionate love and health in older adulthood
The health benefits associated with marriage are disproportionately large in older adulthood, due in part to the powerful role spouses play in promoting each other's well-being. What remains unclear is what motivates this caretaking. To determine whether compassionate love plays a role, the current study used an Actor-Partner Interdependence Model to examine how 64 older couples' compassionate love is linked to their health. Feeling compassionate…

Medielandskabet Post Mediasaurus? Udfordringer til medieforskningen efter massemedierne
Der er mange bud på, hvilken betydning informationsteknologi vil få for fremtidens medielandskab. Disse bud spænder fra forestillinger om en ny skelsættende medierevolution, som vil få de kendte medier til at for- svinde, til påstande om, at der med de 'nye' multimedier egentligt ikke er noget nyt under solen. I stedet for at kaste sig ud i usikre spådomme om, hvad fremtiden måtte bringe, forsøger Jens F. Jensen i denne artikel at skitsere de akt…
Vejkort til Informationsmotorvejen. En medietypologi for informationstrafikmønstre på Internet
Internet er - som medie betragtet - et overordentligt komplekst fænomen. Det aktualiserer behovet for en typologi over Nettets mange og meget forskelligartede informationstjenester og kommunikationsformer. I den- ne artikel præsenterer Jens F. Jensen et udkast til en sådan klassifika- tion af Internet-tjenester. Først introduceres en mulig typologi for nye computerbaserede netmedier; og endelig bliver der draget forskellige konklusioner om Intern…
"Interaktivitet" - på sporet af et nyt begreb i medie- og kommunikationsvidenskaberne
I diskussionen af nye elektroniske medier indtager interaktivitets- begrebet en central rolle og er noget, næsten alle taler om, men ved nærmere eftersyn viser det sig, at begrebet ikke har nogen præcis betydning. I denne oversigtsartikel behandler Jens F. Jensen interaktivitetsbegrebets placering i medie- og kommunika- tionsforskning, og han diskuterer nogle af de vigtigste forsøg på at definere interaktivitet. Artiklen munder ud i et forsøg på …
