In preparation for the conference, we interviewed Dr. Karl Tomm, founder and senior advisor of the Calgary Family Therapy Centre and a professor of Psychiatry at the Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary. In this article, we present Karl's interview, where he explains the notion of disquiet as a relational response to unwanted differences about hopes or desires emerging in our interactions with one another. Karl shares a clinical example of a possible transition from disquiet to generativity in a family therapy process. We offer some theoretical reflections on how Karl navigates disquieting interactions in family therapy conversations and discuss potential actions that family therapists can take to bring forth generativities from within relational disquiet.</p>","PeriodicalId":51396,"journal":{"name":"Family Process","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/famp.70030","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143638833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to identify the significant events and analyze therapeutic processes through a joint analysis of significant events from the client's perspective. Fourteen multiple-family groups were evaluated (122 adolescents and 107 parents in total) through focus groups at the end of the treatment. Using thematic analysis, we identified six types of significant events, the phase of treatment in which they occurred, the clients' involvement during the identified events, the modality of the intervention in which the events occurred, and their impact. The results confirm enactment, conflict dramatization, emotional expression, and catharsis as the main events in multiple-family groups. The participants reported significant events, particularly during the middle and final phases of the treatment, notably moments related to enactment and role-playing situations. Moreover, adolescents identified significant events both in group moments without their parents and in group situations with their parents.

Therefore, studies on the contributing factors of parents' homework involvement quality are warranted. Notably, environmental, parental, and child-related factors may put parents under pressure that impairs parents' homework involvement quality. Yet, extant literature lacks an examination of this issue holistically, especially in non-Western societies. The current research addressed this gap by investigating how Chinese mothers' perceived stress in life, child-based worth, and children's general helplessness toward homework, which created pressures on mothers, uniquely contributed to mothers' daily homework involvement quality. Chinese mothers (<i>N</i> = 261, mean age = 40.90 years, SD = 2.65) of fourth graders reported on these pressures via survey and their daily constructive (i.e., positive emotions, autonomy support, and mastery-oriented teaching) and unconstructive homework involvement (i.e., negative emotions, control, and performance-oriented teaching) for 14 consecutive days after the completion of the survey. Results from multilevel modeling indicated that mothers' perceived stress negatively predicted their constructive involvement, while mothers' child-based worth and children's helplessness toward homework positively predicted their unconstructive involvement over the daily diaries. The findings highlight the importance of understanding daily family processes holistically by considering environmental, parental, and child factors, and extending knowledge about the contributing factors of parents' homework involvement quality in real-life settings. Practitioners and educators are encouraged to alleviate multiple pressures parents may experience to make parents' homework involvement constructive to child development.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51396,"journal":{"name":"Family Process","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143638831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study analyzed the role of dysfunctional thoughts and family function for understanding caregivers' depressive and anxiety symptoms, focusing on the potential moderating effect of family function in the relationship between dysfunctional thoughts and distress. In addition, it examined potential differences in the obtained associations considering the kinship relationship. A total of 278 family caregivers of people with dementia were divided into four groups (wives, husbands, daughters, sons). Sociodemographic variables, family obligations, dysfunctional thoughts, frequency and discomfort associated with problematic behaviors, family function, anxious symptomatology, and depressive symptomatology were assessed. Regression analyses revealed that the moderating effect of family function was significant only for daughters. For depressive symptomatology, the model explained 28.6% of the variance for daughters, showing that high levels of dysfunctional thoughts were associated with increased depressive symptoms when family function was low or intermediate (<i>p</i> < 0.001), but not when it was high. Similarly, for anxious symptomatology, the model explained 23.9% of the variance for daughters, with dysfunctional thoughts again associated with higher anxiety symptoms when family function was low or intermediate (<i>p</i> < 0.001), but not significantly when family function was high. These findings suggest that a well-functioning family may buffer the negative impact of rigid caregiving beliefs, particularly for daughters.

With rising divorce rates, it's essential to examine factors affecting marital instability. Drawing from the stress-divorce model, spouses' stress perception likely permeates into marriage via daily communication. It is important to consider challenges unique to different marital stages to understand variations among couples through the family life cycle. The study used the Perceived Stress Scale, the Primary Communication Inventory, and the Marital Instability Scale to survey 654 couples in the newlywed, couples with pre-school children, couples with school-age children, and empty-nest stages. The study revealed that the actor-partner effects between stress perception and marital instability were initially present in the early stages of marriage. As the duration of the marriage progressed, during the stages of pre-school age and school-age children, only actor effects existed. In the empty nest stage, the actor-partner effects gradually diminish. Throughout the life cycle, daily communication served as a mediating factor in the relationship between stress and marital instability. This research uncovers a dynamic evolution in the association between couples' stress perception and marital instability across marital longevity: at the beginning of marriage, spouses have interactive effects; at the stage with child(ren), the interactive effect diminishes; at the empty-nest stage, the role is imposed only through the medium of daily communication. Our research reveals that maintaining communication during all stages of marriage is key to effectively managing stress and maintaining marital instability.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51396,"journal":{"name":"Family Process","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143595317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This process emerges from relational-family experiences, in accordance with the regulation of the emotions experienced and the balance achieved between the forces of autonomy and togetherness. We analyzed the connection between relational ethics and differentiation of self, as well as comparing these variables in a non-clinical sample (<i>N</i> = 1230) and a clinical one (<i>N</i> = 241) to whom we administered the Spanish Relational Ethics Scale and the Differentiation of Self Inventory. The empirical results suggest that relational ethics and differentiation of self are highly interconnected and linked to health and to the achievement of mature individuation, contributing to our empirical knowledge of the two constructs. Our findings suggest that these two frameworks and their respective constructs may be viewed as mutually supportive, offering a potential opportunity to thoughtfully integrate them into clinical practice where appropriate.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51396,"journal":{"name":"Family Process","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143594873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
