Dyadic resistance during parent–adolescent interactions
Objective This study examined micro‐level resistance dynamics that occur during parent–adolescent interactions before and after the transition to high school. Background Although research on parent–adolescent disputes has emphasized global measures of frequency and intensity, less attention has been paid to the actions of resistance during parent–adolescent interactions. This study fills a gap in what is known about parent–adolescent resistance d…
Examining the Methods Adolescents Use in Nonsuicidal Self‐Injury
INTRODUCTION: Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) among adolescents is a health concern. Little is known about the patterns of methods adolescents use, in terms of how many and how often different methods are used. METHODS: We used three annual waves of data from 630 Swedish adolescents (T1: age 12-18 years; 56% girls), who reported NSSI use at least once. Latent profile analysis was used to examine profile differences, with supplementary analyses foc…
Dyadic Resistance in Parent‐Adolescent Interactions During the Transition to High School
INTRODUCTION: Although prior research has examined adolescents' resistance to parental control, the dyadic level of analysis has been overlooked. This study attended to how a Canadian sample of parents and adolescents engaged in resisting one another by observing moment-to-moment actions as they discussed the upcoming transition to high school. METHODS: A secondary analysis of data collected from 2010 to 2012 using the Action-Project Method was c…
Adolescents Constructing Their Imagined Futures Through Dialogues With and/or About Nonfamilial Adults
INTRODUCTION: Adolescents actively explore future imaginings as they prepare for major educational, work, and personal transitions. Although family members may support exploration of imagined futures, adults outside adolescents' kin network provide access to resources not supplied within the family. The purpose of this study was to understand how adolescents actively draw on social resources of nonfamilial adults relative to their imagined future…
Foster parents’ engagement in the development and maintenance of Indigenous children’s and youth’s cultural identities
Stability indicators, child welfare provisioning and trajectory into university for care-experienced youth
Purpose Children and youth who enter the care system have lower educational outcomes and university participation rates than their peers. This study aims to understand trend exceptions by examining the background of care-experienced undergraduates attending a research-intensive university in Canada. Design/methodology/approach Informed by social affordance theory, this study examined the presence of four indicators of stability (home, household o…
Health status and missed care among youth in care in British Columbia, Canada
Contextual Action Theory in Nursing Home Settings
Nursing home (NH) residents are often considered passive recipients of care with a limited role in shaping their experience. This perspective is often reproduced in NH research, which restricts resident participation, thereby upholding ageist views that cause discrimination of older adults living in NH settings. In this article, we propose using Contextual Action Theory (CAT) as a conceptual framework for exploring NH experiences in a way that in…
Trajectories of nonsuicidal self‐injury during adolescence
OBJECTIVE: Although nonsuicidal self-injury is a public health concern, there is little information on how it changes across adolescence or what contributes to stability or change. We aimed to identify trajectories of stability and change in self-injury from ages 13 to 17 years, and to identify interpersonal and intrapersonal correlates that differentiate between trajectories of stability and change. METHOD: We used five annual waves of cohort-se…
“It saves lives”
Transgender (trans) and gender diverse (TGD) populations continue to experience significant inequities in social and health outcomes, often in connection with the systemic exposure of these groups to violence, stigma, and discrimination. Despite the promising role of peer support in mitigating adverse impacts of marginalization, this phenomenon remains under-examined. In this study, which is informed methodologically by an abductive approach to g…
The importance of nutrition and exercise in the management of chronic diseases
Engaging in appropriate nutrition and physical exercise are two key factors in the prevention and management of various chronic diseases. Some of these diseases, such as cancer, diabetes and fibromyalgia, result in high mortality rates and high healthcare costs. The mechanisms of action and the optimal prescription of diet and exercise needed to obtain benefits remain elusive. A lot of information is available regarding the extensive benefits pro…
Parent‐adolescent conflict processes and their measurement
Conflicts are frequently incorporated into research on parent‐adolescent relationships. However, empirical research has inconsistently used “parent‐adolescent conflict” as a broad and often singular term rather than processes involving a range of constructs. To understand the balance of attention to the constructs involved in parent‐adolescent conflicts, we conducted a systematic review of measures that were reported in peer‐reviewed journal arti…
Prospective content in parent-adolescent conversations about the upcoming transition to high school
Adolescents’ prospection is often assessed as individual differences; however, adolescents likely share anticipated events with adults in their lives. To understand how prospection is shared between adolescents and parents, this study examined conversations about the upcoming transition to high school for the types of prospective content emerging in conversations, whether dyads engaged collaboratively in prospective content, how emergent patterns…
The Action Project Method Applied in Nursing Home Settings
The Action-Project Method (A-PM) is a qualitative research approach used to understand the actions and experiences co-constructed by individuals. We applied the A-PM in a nursing home (NH) setting with the aim to explore how NH residents and the people closest to them describe their priorities for care and act on these priorities. Due to the health of residents, the demands on staff and family members, and general issues around scheduling, applyi…
Data Analyses using the Action Project Method Coding Technique
The qualitative action-project method (A-PM) was developed in counseling psychology and is useful for studying human actions in various contexts. With this article we provide a guide to A-PM data analysis with a focus on the method's coding technique. We briefly outline the theory underpinning the method as well as the different phases of data collection. The A-PM data analysis happens in parallel from a bottom-up and top-down approach, where res…
Using Contextual Action Theory and Action-Project Method to Study Real-Time Identity
This conceptual paper describes how Contextual Action Theory and its associated methodology, the Action-Project Method, can be used to study real-time identity processes as they are embedded in identity construction over time. Contextual Action Theory is a conceptual framework based on the view that human action is goal-directed. In this view, identity construction is conceptualized as a series of goal-directed actions over an extended period of …
Hormone therapy decision‐making processes
INTRODUCTION: This study explored how transgender (trans) youth and parents of trans youth made decisions around hormone therapy initiation as well as trans youth experiences of barriers to care. METHODS: Participants included 21 trans youth (ages 14-18) and 15 parents of trans youth who resided in British Columbia, Canada. Data for this grounded theory research consisted of transcripts and lifeline drawings collected through semi-structured inte…
Guidelines for Using Child Welfare Administrative Data from a Measurement Perspective
Administrative data, or data routinely collected over the course of an agency’s programmatic activities (Yampolskaya, 2018), have enjoyed a surge in popularity among social science researchers in the past few years. This is no less true in child welfare, where administrative data offer a comprehensive, longitudinal, population-level source of information from which to identify risk and protective factors and analyze outcomes that are not subject …

Investigating site-level longitudinal effects of population health interventions
There is limited research on evaluating nonrandomized population health interventions. We aimed to introduce a new approach for assessing site-level longitudinal effects of population health interventions (SLEPHI) by innovatively applying multiple group multilevel (MG-ML) modeling to repeated cycles of cross-sectional data collected from different individuals of the same sites at different times, a design commonly employed in public health resear…
Transition to Adulthood as a Peer Project
This study used an action theoretical framework and the action-project method to address the following research question: “How do youth jointly with peers construct, articulate, and act on goals and strategies pertinent to the transition to adulthood?” Fifteen young adult friendship dyads were studied over a 9-month period, using videotaped conversations and telephone monitoring. Peers jointly and intentionally engaged in actions and enacted goal…
Competing discourses within parent-adolescent conversations
This qualitative study utilized relational dialectics theory (Baxter, 2011) to examine competing discourses within parent-adolescent conversations about extracurricular activities during the transition to high school. The data for this study consisted of self-generated, self-directed conversations between 20 parent-adolescent dyads. Using content analysis, data were coded for the category of conversation topic and then the presence of Baxter's (1…
What's in a Name? Distinguishing Between Routine Disclosure and Self‐Disclosure
A lack of specificity between two types of disclosure has emerged in research on adolescents’ relationship and communication with their parents. Researchers are obscuring the distinctions between self‐disclosure and routine disclosure (i.e., disclosure of their whereabouts and activities to parents). In this article, we describe where the problems have arisen and then outline the conceptual differences between the two. Illustrations of how the tw…

The (Re)Construction of Self after the Death of a Partner to HIV/Aids
The aim of this study was to explore individuals' self-construals after the loss of a partner from HIV/AIDS for whom they were a caregiver. Seven gay or transsexual bereaved caregivers were interviewed after the death of their partners. The data revealed patterns suggestive of A. Aron and E. N. Aron's (1986) "inclusion of others in the self" (IOS) with partners described as part of participants' identity. Using the metaphor of the IOS, the result…
Parental Mattering
Studies of parental identity tend to focus on historical influences or experiences with the other parent of the child and overlook the influence of children on parents. To investigate children's influence on parental identity, this study examines individuals' perceived mattering or significance to their school-aged children. Cross-case qualitative analysis of data from 47 parents ( n = 30 females, 17 males) reveals that mattering emerges from int…

Listening to the views of children? Principles and mechanisms within The Children (Scotland) Act 1995
Great emphasis is now placed on consulting, listening to and hearing the views of children and young people. The Children (Scotland) Act 1995, along with its parallel legislation the Children (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 and the Children Act 1989, were critical in establishing this principle in UK legislation. However, practical questions remain about how to consult children and young people effectively and consistently. This article is based on…
