This research used structural equation modeling to examine relations among family dynamics, attorney involvement, and the adjustment of young children (0-6 years) at the time of parental separation. The article presents baseline data (N = 102 nonresidential fathers and N = 110 primary caretaking mothers) from a larger longitudinal study. Results showed that the effects of parental conflict on c...

Parental food allocation in birds has long been a focal point for life history and parent–offspring conflict theories. In asynchronously hatching species, parents are thought to either adjust brood size through death of marginal offspring (brood reduction), or feed the disadvantaged chicks to reduce the competitive hierarchy (parental compensation). Here, we show that parent American coots (Ful...

Populations with two sexes are vulnerable to a pair of genetic conflicts: sexual antagonism that can arise when alleles have opposing fitness effects on females and males; and parental antagonism that arises when alleles have opposing fitness effects when maternally and paternally inherited. This paper extends previous theoretical work that found stable linkage disequilibrium (LD) between sexua...

Parental separation is a risky traumatic experience for the child regardless of his age. To overcome this ordeal, sets up functional or adaptive mechanisms, enabling him to continue development; on contrary, giving rise emotional symptoms, behavioral disorders and / school sufferance. The expression suffering will depend several factors (the age child, level development, personality that parent...

Objective To examine reliability and validity data for the Family Interaction Macro-coding System (FIMS) with adolescents with spina bifida (SB), adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), and healthy adolescents and their families. Methods Sixty-eight families of children with SB, 58 families of adolescents with T1DM, and 68 families in a healthy comparison group completed family intera...

What determines adolescents' accuracy in perceiving parental values? The current study examined potential predictors including parental value communication, family value agreement, and parenting styles. In the study, 547 Israeli adolescents (aged 16 to 18) of diverse socioeconomic backgrounds participated with their parents. Adolescents reported the values they perceive their parents want them ...

The present study examined the associations between parental conflict and externalising behaviours, specifically in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). In addition, parenting styles is explored to moderate relationship behaviours these Disorder(ASD). Participants comprised of 106 parents Singaporean ASD. Parents were required complete assessments autism severity, style interparental c...

A contemporary and fundamental problem faced by many evolutionary biologists is how to puzzle together a collection P of partial trees (leaf-labelled trees whose leaves are bijectively labelled by species or, more generally, taxa, each supported by e. g. a gene) into an overall parental structure that displays all trees in P . This already difficult problem is complicated by the fact that the t...

Teenagers are using the internet for a variety of social and identity-based activities, but in doing so, they are exposed to risky situations. The work of ensuring teens’ online safety largely falls to parents, many of whom are unprepared to understand the realities and norms of teens’ online activity. In this thesis, we will investigate how parents and teens perceive online risks, the efficacy...
