Supporting in Ways That Do Not Align With What We Feel, Believe, or Want
In this study, we investigate deceptive/reluctant support (D/RS), which we define as verbal and nonverbal supportive communication that is communicated unwillingly (i.e., hesitantly or against their wishes), does not align with support providers’ true feelings or beliefs (i.e., disingenuous or inauthentic), or both. In addition, relational norms and patterns of behavior specific to providers' relationships with support recipients were central to …
Dementia Caregiving and Dialectical Tensions During the Early Days of the Covid-19 Pandemic
Caregiving for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease or related dementia presents significant challenges which were amplified throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. During this time, care partners were forced to navigate uncertain terrain as well as new and challenging relational tensions. This study investigated the experiences of dementia care partners and the relational tensions present as they managed the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic using R…
Diet Culture Beliefs, Co-Rumination, Intuitive Eating, and Experiences of Internalized Weight Stigma in the Adjustment to College Among Emerging Adult Women
Adjustment to college is an important predictor of college success and thriving, and various factors—including conflicting beliefs about diet, exercise, and body image—influence female students’ ability to adjust. Previous scholarship illustrates the pervasive nature of diet culture beliefs and its resulting negative psychosocial outcomes. Young women participate in and encourage diet culture beliefs by engaging in body-specific co-rumination, es…
Gendered beliefs and behaviors in couple relationships as predictors of physiological stress functioning
Expanding our listening orientations
This study considers ways to improve conceptualization of listening types through exploration of widely used listening scales: the 24-item and 8-item revised Listening Styles Profiles (LSP-R and LSP-R8) and the revised Listening Concepts Inventory (LCI-R). Using an online survey, we examined the ways that these scales correlate within and across each other. Our results demonstrate several robust correlations between the subscales of each listenin…
Corumination, diet culture, intuitive eating, and body dissatisfaction among young adult women
Body dissatisfaction is pervasive among women in the United States. As a result, women feel pressured to participate in body‐related corumination. In response to evidence suggesting that diet culture and body‐related corumination can produce significant harm, scholars have increasingly proposed intuitive eating as a body‐positive alternative. This study explores the relationships between body‐specific corumination, body dissatisfaction, friendshi…
Surviving and Thriving
(1) Introduction: Caring for an adult with dementia is both challenging and rewarding. Research indicates that community-based, social support, and/or arts engagement interventions can play a key role in ameliorating the negative outcomes associated with caregiving while enhancing its more positive attributes. This study explores the psychosocial outcomes experienced by dementia caregivers who participated in a multi-year, multidimensional interv…
Supporting the supporter
The social, economic, and physical costs associated with providing long-term care for a child with disabilities can be overwhelming, and it is not uncommon for caregivers to experience burnout, emotional distress, and significant health ailments as a result of their commitment to their child. Social support can be a key resource to combat these negative effects, as ample research has shown that social support can act as a buffer to the negative e…
Support marshaling for romantic relationships
Research has demonstrated that network support for a romantic relationship often plays a crucial role in the relationship's success. Despite this knowledge, it is not uncommon for romantic couples to encounter network opposition for their relationship, and little research has evaluated what the romantic partners do in this situation. Using “social contextual theory” as its foundation (M. R. Parks, , ), this study evaluates a previously proposed t…
Young Adults' Strategies for Managing Social Support During Weight-Loss Attempts
Obesity and being overweight often result in serious health problems. Despite growing awareness of the dangers associated with being overweight, many individuals struggle to lose weight. Investigators have identified social support as a key element in weight-loss attempts. Unfortunately, little has been done to investigate how people solicit social support from members of their pre-existing social network without a structured intervention. To add…
