Abstract This research was conducted to determine the family burden and quality of life of parents with children with disabilities. This descriptive study was carried out within special education and rehabilitation centers between the dates of October, 2017 and July, 2018. The sample of the study consisted of 518 parents. Data regarding the study were collected using the "Family Burden Assessment Scale" and "WHOQOL-BREF-TR Scale". A negative moderate and significant relationship has been detected between the physical domain and FBAS scores of the parents subjected while a negative strong and significant relationship was detected in the spiritual, social and environmental domains. It has been concluded that the quality of life has decreased as the family burden of the parents increased. In addition, family burden of parents had a negative effect on their quality of life.

Abstract This study identifies how private stigma may impact one’s intent to seek therapy for romantic relationship issues via face-to-face and online therapy. The mechanisms of self-disclosure, self-concealment, and attitudes about therapy are analyzed as mediators through path modeling analysis. Results indicated significant indirect effects through self-disclosure and attitudes about therapy for seeking both online and face-to-face therapy. There was a significant indirect effect through self-concealment for intending to seek face-to-face therapy, but not for online therapy. Clinicians should find ways to normalize seeking therapy for relationship issues and be cognizant of how private stigma may impact their work with couples.

Abstract The formation of families, through the process of adoption, is an increasingly relevant topic in the field of mental health. Taking into consideration the growing number of adoptions in the United States (UN DESA), there is a prevalent need for a systemic approach to working with these families. This article addresses the societal need by offering Restoration Therapy as a framework for effectively assisting adoptive families in adjusting to their newly formed unit. The authors provide a brief overview of Restoration Therapy, the justification for using it with adoptive families, and a case vignette to exemplify the model.

Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of the components of love language on differentiation of self and marital satisfaction. The sample comprised of 161 Turkish married heterosexual couples. The Common Fate Model (CFM) analysis revealed that four of the five components of love language had a mediating role. Differentiation of self positively predicted marital satisfaction and indirectly affected marital satisfaction through physical touch, words of affirmation, quality time, and receiving gifts. The findings were discussed for family therapists and cross-cultural researchers aiming to promote better marital satisfaction based on differentiation of self and love language.

Abstract This study is an examination of determinants of psychological adaptation among marriage migrant women in South Korea within three main theories: stress and coping, culture learning, and social cognition. Generalized ordinary logistic regression is applied to the 2015 National Multicultural Family Survey. The results reveal that loneliness and family conflicts have negative effects on psychological adaptation while social supports result in positive effects. Participation in gatherings with Koreans and Korean language proficiency work positively for psychological adaptation, while residence period and cultural differences have negative effects. Discrimination is also negatively associated with psychological adaptation.

Abstract This study aimed to investigate the effect of the family-friendly program (FFP) on reducing parental anxiety sensitivity (PAS) and also Separation Anxiety disorders (SAD) in children and adolescents. Subjects in both groups responded to the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Disorder-71 (SCARED-71) (to diagnose separation) and the anxiety sensitivity questionnaire for parents, before intervention (pretest) and immediately after the intervention (posttest). ANCOVA test via SPSS 23 showed that there was a significant difference between the test and control groups in the post-test (p < 0.0001). Teaching FFP affects reducing PAS and also SAD in children and adolescents.

Abstract An estimated 2.3 million individuals were incarcerated in the U.S. in 2018. This paper displays how The Tadros Theory of Change can be utilized to work with incarcerated individuals and their families. The Tadros Theory is an integrative family therapy theory comprised of a structural conceptualization of rules, roles, boundaries, and structure with narrative methods of empowerment, solution-focused goal-orientation, cultural humility, and a strengths-based approach. The Tadros Theory empowers and aids in identifying clients’ positive strengths and resiliency factors. This paper adds to the literature on this theory by introducing the consideration of trauma and substance use which are both extremely prevalent when working with this population. A case application showcases that this theory can be used with an incarcerated father and his non-incarcerated partner. Barriers, clinical implications, and future directions are discussed.

Abstract This study examines three therapy cases of Korean families to explore the factors that contributed to the male clients’ experience of sex as pressure which led to sexual dysfunction. We used intra- and inter-case analysis to identify similarities and differences between the contributing factors in the cases. The contributing factors were psychological, in-law factors, marital communication factors, family of origin factors, and transference factors. Our findings suggest that interaction among these factors contributed to the husbands’ experience of sex as pressure.

Abstract The research aimed to identify experiences and hopelessness levels of women receiving infertility treatment. The quantitative sample included 276 women receiving infertility treatment at a university hospital and structured interviews were done with 20 women in qualitative dimension. It was identified that socio-demographic factors, knowledge about infertility treatment, alternative treatment tendencies and use of plant cures affected hopelessness levels (p<.05). Four themes were found in the qualitative dimension about infertility and treatment process It was seen that Turkish women did not have sufficient knowledge about the process of infertility and treatment and had a high level of hopelessness.
