Predictors of Depression among Workers at the Time of a Plant Closing
Using an ecological theoretical perspective, this study of white male UAW workers stressed by a plant closing explored predictors of depression at multiple systems levels. The five best predictors of workers' depression were family strengths, age, economic strain, health, and social support. Additional bivariate predictors included self-esteem and having an alcohol problem at the individual level, marital status and family satisfaction at the fam…

Issues in the Assessment of Family Practice
Four issues in the assessment of family practice are illustrated using data from thirty-nine two-parent families who completed a comprehensive battery of measures of dyadic and family functioning before and after family therapy. The four issues examined are (a) assessment of the directionality of therapeutic change. (b) the choice of family assessment models, (c) self-reports and/or behavioral observations, and (d) differences between family memb…
The Structure and Competance of Family Units
The relative associations of family structure (intact, vs. one-parent, vs. step-parent family) and of family-system functioning with children's self-esteem and locus of control were examined, using mutivariate analysis. Children in two-parent families had significantly higher self-esteem than children from one-parent families, even when family income was controlled. However, family-system functioning was much more important in predicting self-est…
