Sex roles and the evolution of parental care specialization
2019
Males and females are defined by the relative size of their gametes (anisogamy), but secondary sexual dimorphism in fertilization, parental investment and mating competition is widespread and often remarkably stable over evolutionary timescales. Recent theory has clarified the causal connections between anisogamy and the most prevalent differences between the sexes, but deviations from these patterns remain poorly understood. Here, we study how sex differences in parental investment and mating competition coevolve with parental care specialization. Parental investment often consists of two or more distinct activities (e.g. provisioning and defence) and parents may care more efficiently by s…
Uwarunkowania parentyfikacji doświadczanej w dzieciństwie i okresie dorastania z perspektywy młodych dorosłych
2017
Parentification has also been known and studied as role reversal in family. Despite the fact that this concept entered scientific literature in the 1970’s, it has not received adequate attention and its causes and mechanisms have not been fully established. In Poland, parentification has been on the margins of psychological research and its prevalence, causes, and effects are unknown. Consequently, there is lack of practical guidelines for practitioners working with families in which role reversal might have taken place. The goal of this study is to gain insight into the prevalence, conditions, and types of parentification retrospectively reported by young adults reflecting on their family …
USO CLINICO DELL ADULT ATTACHMENT INTERVIEW: UN APPROFONDIMENTO
2011
This article aims at illustrating how the patients assessment and the process of psychotherapy can be significantly improved by the administration of the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI). The AAI questions evoke the memories of the interactions with the caregiving figures during childhood, thus providing an access to the patients states of mind regarding attachment; these childhood memories are crucial for the individuals approach to world and relationships, as they constitute the core of the Internal Working Models. Accordingly, the administration of the AAI can help the clinician and the patient in the development of the therapeutic alliance, also allowing an in-depth exploration of the p…
Uwarunkowania parentyfikacji doświadczanej w dzieciństwie i okresie dorastania z perspektywy młodych dorosłych
2016
Parentyfikacja to termin najczęściej zamiennie określany jako odwrócona rola w rodzinie. Mimo że pojęcie to do literatury naukowej weszło już w latach 70., jest to obszar zaniedbany naukowo, którego zarówno przyczyny, jak i mechanizmy powstania nie zostały gruntownie przebadane. W Polsce parentyfikacja opisywana jest marginalnie, nieznana jest ani skala zjawiska, ani jej uwarunkowania oraz konsekwencje. Brakuje również praktycznych wskazań do pracy z rodzinami, w których dochodzi do odwróconej roli rodzicielskiej. Celem przeprowadzonych badań było poznanie skali zjawiska, uwarunkowań parentyfikacji w dzieciństwie i okresie dorastania, jej rodzajów doświadczanych przez młodych dorosłych. W b…
