Race Murder and Community Trauma: Psychoanalysis and Ethnography in Exploring the Impact of the Killing of James Byrd in Jasper, Texas
INTRODUCTION For the past decade the first author has worked in three small communities in Texas where conflicts related to race have been salient. In Anson, Texas, he explored the impact of a post Jim Crow reality on a community that had been entirely white prior to the Civil Rights Era but was now over a third minority, mostly Latino. In Hempstead, Texas he studied the effects of a school desegregation process that had erased all traces of the …
Marital Discord and Child Behavior Problems: Parent-Child Relationship Quality and Child Interpersonal Awareness as Mediators
To date, specific mechanisms at work in the link between marital discord and children's problematic behavior remain unclear. In the present study, three types of variables-marital discord (nonconsensus and arguing-related stress), parent-child relationship quality (global quality and daily time spent together), and child interpersonal awareness (ability to infer emotions in social situations)-were used as predictors of children's social behaviora…
The psychology of twinship
Family and center contributions to the adjustment of infants in full-time day care
The results of two studies suggest that in child care of reasonably good quality, home variables may be more important than center variables in moderating security of attachment
Masters of the Universe: Children's Toys as Reflections on Contemporary Psychoanalytic Theory
The emergence of contemporary object relations theory and self psychology as potent theoretical forces has led to rich discussion with far-reaching implications for clinical, developmental, and metapsychological theory. This article examines these developments using as a medium the Masters of the Universe figures and stories, which have captured the imaginations of a broad spectrum of phallic-oedipal and oedipal-aged children. A series of interre…
The Child and the Day Care Setting: Qualitative Variations and Development
The early developmental context of twinship: Some limitations of the equal environments hypothesis
Using questionnaires distributed to mothers, the characteristics of early development in twinship were investigated. Results indicated twinship to be an at-risk situation with neonatal complications and within-pair differences in the attainment of developmental milestones. The implications of these differences raise questions about the accuracy of the equal environments hypothesis
The replacement of the fantasied oedipal child: A disruptive effect of sibling loss on the mother-infant relationship
The replacement of the fantasied oedipal child: A disruptive effect of sibling loss on the mother-infant relationship
Maternal perceptions of their infants' daycare
Results are presented from an extensive questionnaire administered to the mothers and caregivers of 40 infants who were in full-time daycare. Four general areas were explored: mother and daycare, mother-child relationship, mother and her work, and mother and family. Although most mothers described the decision to place their child in daycare as a difficult one, most did not feel that daycare had had a negative effective upon their infants. Mother…
On the infant's meaning for the parent: A study of four mother-daughter pairs
Early assessment of psychological risk factors: On the role of husband/father during pregnancy and in the early postnatal period
The earliest phases of the mother-infant relationship may markedly be influenced, for better or worse, by the emotional availability of the father. In our contemporary Western societies young expectant couples are often isolated psychologically. It is suggested that if such circumstances exist and the mother also has psychological risk factors stemming from her past history and/or from her experience with the pregnancy and delivery, the husband's…
