The impact of religious conflict within orthodox Jewish families in Israel
While prior research suggests that religion influences relationships positively, it may also be a source of conflict.

The most significant stressors were finances, communication, physical intimacy/sexuality, time pressures, and in-law conflicts. Counseling inte…

Adolescents in the first group were found to be at greater risk for depression, separation anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and oppositional defiant disorder than we…
