Understanding Cognitive Changes in Intimacy in Long-Term Romantic Relationships
Individuals in Western societies generally look to their romantic partner to meet most of their intimacy needs. However, the level and the nature of the intimacy that partners share varies over the years and over the significant events they experience. Drawing from the literature, this is a review that integrates two approaches to understanding the cognitive changes in intimacy that occur over the course of long-term romantic relationships. It ma…
Black Americans' and White Americans' views of the etiology and treatment of mental health problems
Factors Contributing to Divorce: A Study of Race Differences
Sixty-six white and black participants indicated the extent to which certain problem areas contributed to their divorce. Significant race-related and gender-related differences were found in the problems they identified. While white participants indicated that child care/rearing and communication were significantly greater problems in their marriages than did their black counterparts, black participants indicated that extra-marital affairs, physi…
Understanding and Helping Families: A Cognitive-Behavioral Approach
Favorable Outcomes in Children After Parental Divorce
The present paper is based on a review of the literature that considers the short- and long-term effects parental divorce has on children. Most studies in this literature have identified unfavorable outcomes that develop in many areas of children's lives as they struggle to cope with their changed family situations. However, as children adjust to the challenges they face before, during, and after parental divorce, neutral and favorable outcomes a…

The role of psychologists in the treatment, management, and prevention of chronic mental illness
In addition to suffering from the severe psychiatric symptoms of chronic mental illness (CMI), people with this type of disorder suffer from a variety of secondary disabilities and face societal obstacles that interfere with their ability to maximize their personal, social, and vocational potentials. Following the deinstitutionalization of long-term psychiatric patients in recent decades, many different understandings of the etiology, treatment, …
Stepparent Stress: A Cognitive Perspective
This paper reviews the literature on parenting stresses facing stepparents. After describing the unique stressors stepparents encounter and reviewing finding that suggest that they experience slightly lower levels of overall adjustment than do parents in intact families, the role cognitions play in causing stepparent stress is examine. A number of different types of cognitions, generated from societal, familial, and individual sources, affect the…
A Study of Perceptions of the Stepparent Role
This study was designed to test whether there is a lack of social consensus about how stepparents should and will act as parents, and whether individuals in society perceive stepparent roles as similar to or different from the roles of biological and adoptive parents. Two-hundred and forty introductory psychology students were randomly assigned to complete one of three versions (biological parent, adoptive parent, and stepparent) of the Family Ro…
Family Stability in Black Families: Values Underlying Three Different Perspectives
Three models the pathology, structural-functional, and emergent have been used to address the issue of stability in black families. It is presently argued that the lack of consensus in their conclusions is due to the impact of differing, underlying, and only implicitly stated, assumptions and values held by the researchers. In support of this thesis, a brief discussion of the role of values and assumptions in social scientific research is followe…
Understanding Family Role Reallocation following a Death: A Theoretical Framework
Families in which a parent has died will show a variety of reactions and recovery patterns. This article examines several factors which contribute to this variance. Within the framework of a developmental role analysis of the family system, the influence of the stage of the family life cycle, the roles of the deceased, previous patterns of role allocation, and the type of death are discussed. It is suggested that “person oriented” families, chara…
The Parent-Child Relationship Survey: An Examination of its Psychometric Properties
The psychometric properties of the Father and Mother Scales of the Parent-Child Relationship Survey were examined. 149 undergraduate students in psychology from divorced families and 155 students from continuously intact families completed the instrument which was designed to assess the perceived quality of older children's relationships with their parents. Results suggest that the Father and Mother Scales each assess primarily a unidimensional p…
The Effects of World View on Adaptation to Single Parenthood Among Middle-Class Adult Women
The nature of the relationship between middle-class adult women's world view and their report of the quality of their adjustment to being single mothers was explored. Single mothers and those from two-parent families completed five instruments assessing their world view and emotional adjustment to being mothers. The many statistically significant findings indicated that, although there was considerable person-to-person variation, single mothers w…

Smoking, Alienation, and Locus of Control Factors
Several studies have reported conflicting results concerning the relationship between Rotter's Locus of Control Scale and smoking behavior. In order to clarify the relationship, college students' responses to Rotter's scale were factor analyzed, and smokers', exsmokers', and nonsmokers' factor scores were compared. A predicted significant difference between smokers and nonsmokers was found on the politically unresponsive world factor, suggesting …

Factors of the Rotter Internal-External Scale
Previous investigators have reported that the Rotter I-E scale (1966) may measure many dimensions rather than a unidimensional trait. Following Collins (1974), each of the 23 forced-choice internal and external alternatives of the I-E scale were separated and administered as 46 Likert-scale items. The Likert-format administration was equivalent to the original method. Principal factors analysis and varimax rotation yielded five factors: belief in…

The Effect of Altering the Administration Procedure on Four Wais Subtests
SEVERAL investigators have found that varying the instructions, or the way in which the instructions are presented, can produce concomitant changes in subjects ’ performance on standardized clinical instruments. Utilizing the SAM Complex Coordination Test, a perceptual-motor task, Hagin (1951) divided airmen into three groups who received instructions, (1) from a typed card, (2) orally, accompanied by a demonstration, and (3) in the standard mann…
Evaluation with the Personal Orientation Inventory of a Problem-Solving Approach in Teaching an Undergraduate Psychology Course
A major issue in evaluating innovative teaching methods has been the selection of outcome criteria. With a goal of developing students' process skills, the authors taught a clinical psychology course to undergraduates. To evaluate the course's effectiveness, Shostrom's Personal Orientation Inventory was utilized. There were significant changes in students' scores on 6 of the 12 scales. The implication of utilizing outcome measures consonant with …

Effects of impulsivity on performance of verbal tasks in middle- and lower-class children
Verbal performance of 30 middle- and lower-class males (ages 9–12 years) was compared on four standard tasks. Analysis of the data indicated class difference in language usage is attributed both to language-speech competence and to impulsivity-reflection in response
The effects of impulsivity on the performance of lower-class children on four Wisc subtests
The performance of 18 lower-class boys on four WISC subtests was assessed under two conditions of test administration, the standard one and one in which an imposed latency period was included. These boys generally did better in the latter condition, suggesting that the nature of the stimulus task affected the quality of the response produced
