Abstract

Objectives: This study was intended to examine how a father’s grit affects the development of his adolescent daughter’s resilience, a key variable in predicting long-term goals and achievements. Specifically, the effects of paternal grit and play interaction on the grit of adolescent daughters through a child’s growth mindset were verified. Method: Accordingly, data from 185 pairs of high school students and their fathers (370 in total) were analyzed. Results: There was a significant relationship between a father’s grit and the resilience of a daughter, while the daughter's growth-mindset was fully mediated between the grit of the father and the daughter. Results also showed that a father's involvement in playtime with his daughter moderated the relation between his grit, his daughter’s growth-mindset, and the daughter’s grit. When a father’s involvement in play is low, it was found that the father’s grit had a significant positive relationship with the daughter’s grit through the child's growth mindset. Conclusions: This study has shed light on understanding the resilience development process and the underlying mechanism.

Abstract

Objectives: Using a family therapy case study, this study explored the development of a college student's panic disorder based on the developmental stages and family dynamics. Method: We employed a case study method which is a qualitative research approach useful to understand the context of complex phenomena. Using thematic analysis to analyze the transcripts and counseling memos, the findings were displayed in a matrix and conceptually clustered network. Results: The client's panic disorder appeared to develop through the process of modeling family members and experiences during the client's developmental stages. First, during pre-pregnancy, the client's parents experienced unresolved emotional stress. Second, during childhood, violent parenting towards the client's sister, preference towards the client, and modeling of keeping parents happy were found. Third, during early school years, the client’s older sister’s anxiety-based convulsions and the externalization of family anxiety, being on the short end of the stick, and the modeling of suppression of emotions were found. Lastly, during adolescence, the client's modeling presented increased oppression, increased anxiety, and pathology accommodation. Conclusions: This study explored the developmental stages of panic disorder based on the family system approach. This research also presented the importance of family systemic attribution in regard to occurrence of panic disorder and introduced modeling as a new concept of familial approach.

Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of study is to explore the experiences of journal treatment and self-understanding among middle-aged women who participated in the journal treatment program. Method: In-depth interview of nine participants were analyzed with emic coding, reflecting the researchers’ interpretative ‘self-understanding’ and ‘orientation’. Results: The two categories are summarized as follows: First, the experience of journal therapy by middle-aged women was classified as ‘the meaning of writing’, ‘me in various lives’, and ‘insight and communication’. By participating in journal therapy, the participants realized their desire to write and willingness to face and resolve their own problems positively. They also realized that communication and empathy were very important factors in their lives. Second, the experience of participants’ self-understanding through journal therapy was categorized into ‘understanding self-feeling’, ‘understanding self-attitude’, and ‘understanding self-confidence’. The participants were able to self-soothe by changing their emotions and overcome depression with a positive attitude, although it was found that participants often suppressed their positive feelings. Conclusions: After participating in journal therapy, participants in this study were able to determine that they want to lead an independent life through a self-understanding experience.

Abstract

Objectives: This study investigates the relationships between self-neglact, social support, and stress from no helper in emergency of single-person households in their early and middle adulthood. Method: The data was collected through online survey in 2018, and the subjects were 500 single-person households who were in 20-40s living in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. Except for the respondents who did not answer the key items in the study, 496 were used for the analysis. Results: Results showed that the rate of respondents who experienced at least one type of self-neglect was around 20%. Those who reported that they had no one to ask for help when they needed financial support, physical, or psychological care were 208 (41.9%), and the average number of social support was 4.45. The perceived level of stress from no helper in emergency was 3.5 out of 5. The results from the mediation analysis showed that stress from no helper in emergency completely mediated the relationship between social support and self-neglect, which means the direct effect of the number of supporters was not significant, while it had a significant indirect effect only through stress from no helper in emergency. Conclusions: Findings of the study suggest that education and counseling programs, in particular, to lessen the stress level from no helper are needed. In addition, program development for single-person households, which can strengthen their social ties and support is necessary.
