Covid ‐19 pandemic stresses and relationships in college students
Psychologists’ roles in ending homelessness
Homelessness in the U.S. remains a pernicious social problem despite national coordinated efforts to end it. Psychologists are well positioned to address homelessness through direct service, advocacy, research, and policy work. Results of a survey of psychologist members (n = 197) and student members (n = 209) of the American Psychological Association highlighted activities they engaged in related to helping people who experience housing instabil…
A quarter century of psychological practice in mental health and health care
Powerful forces have shaped professional psychology over the past 25 years, including significant changes in health policy and health care delivery systems. Examples include managed care cost containment, rapid growth of nondoctoral mental health providers, federal mental health parity legislation, and passage of the Affordable Care Act of 2010, with its emphasis on primary care-behavioral health integration and alternatives to fee-for-service re…

The future of psychology practice and science
This article reviews the 2009 APA President's initiatives and recommendations for the future of psychology practice and science. The future of psychology practice requires that we expand the focus of traditional practice; become health care providers, not just mental health providers; use evidence-based practice, assessment, and outcome measures; incorporate technology into our practices, including electronic health records; and change training a…
Pathways to adolescent alcohol use
Predicting heavy alcohol use among adolescents
A prospective, school-based study of alcohol use in a multiethnic sample of 3,675 adolescents found that family factors, other drug use, psychosocial-behavioral factors, and ethnic status are important discriminators of adolescents who are heavy alcohol users when compared with those who are experimental or moderate users. Implications for prevention and intervention are discussed
Innovative Ways to Address the Mental Health and Medical Needs of Marginalized Patients
This article describes an innovative program to meet the needs of homeless women, children, and families residing at a transitional living center in an urban setting. The program involves collaboration between medical and mental health professionals to address the multiple problems and unmet needs of this population. Recommendations for future work in expanding collaborative practice are discussed. ((c) 2004 APA, all rights reserved)
Acculturation, Substance Use, and Deviant Behavior
This longitudinal study examined how separation and family conflict mediated the effects of two acculturation variables (English language use and generational status) on substance use (alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana use) and deviant behavior outcomes in a Mexican American high school age sample. Structural equation modeling indicated that separation was a significant mediator of the relationship between acculturation and alcohol use, tobacco use…
Gender, perceived parental monitoring, and behavioral adjustment
This study examined relationships among gender, perceived parental monitoring, externalizing behaviors, and adolescent alcohol use in a 2-wave longitudinal study. Females reported more perceived parental monitoring and less alcohol use than males. Perceived maternal and paternal monitoring were related to less alcohol use over time. Increases in alcohol use were associated with increases in externalizing behaviors over time. Perceived maternal mo…

Measurement of the Role of Families in Prevention and Adaptation to HIV/Aids
Interactive effects of individuation, family factors, and stress on adolescent alcohol use
A prospective, school-based study of increasing alcohol use in a multi-ethnic sample of 7,540 adolescents showed that the effects of stress, family conflict, and parental monitoring were differentially moderated by two modes of individuation. The effects of stress were moderated by ethnic status and individuation. Implications for prevention and intervention are discussed

Behavior problems of clinic children
Behavior problems of 703 children seen in a clinical setting were examined for interactions between and effects of family type (i.e., parental marital status) and age and sex of child. Significant differences were found based on family type, with children of separated, divorced, and remarried parents having more problems. Expected interactions between marital status and age and sex of child were not obtained, although results support prior resear…
Robustness of the Quasi F statistic to violations of sphericity
Personal Authority in the Family System
This paper reports a series of studies on the development of the Personal Authority in the Family System (PAFS) questionnaire. The PAFS questionnaire is designed to measure family processes based on aspects of current intergenerational family theory (Williamson, 1981, 1982b). Eight scales which measure concepts such as differentiation/fusion, intimacy/isolation, and personal authority/intimidation in the three‐generational context comprise the qu…
Methods of Analysis with Response-Shift Bias
Howard and his colleagues have discovered an instrumentation related contamination which confounds the results of studies which employ self-report measures in a pre/post or posttest only design. This confounding influence is referred to as response-shift bias. Research has demonstrated that the traditional methods of analysis (i.e., analysis of posttests only, analysis of pre/post difference scores, and analysis of covariance using prescores (ANC…
