Social relations in older adults: Secular trends and longitudinal changes over a 16-year follow-up.
2010
Abstract Drawing on population studies in Finland, we investigated secular trends and longitudinal changes in social relations. The cohort comparison data comprised on 974 persons aged 65–69 years from three cohorts born between 1919 and 1939 and interviewed in 1988, 1996 and 2004. Longitudinal analyses were conducted for 635 persons aged 65–74 years over a 16-year follow-up at three measurement points. Social relations were studied on the basis of frequency seeing one's offspring, perceptions of the sufficiency of these contacts, and by asking whom the participants considered as their closest person and how often and in how many tasks they helped someone. The cohort comparisons showed that…
The role of family-related factors in the effects of the UP4FUN school-based family-focused intervention targeting screen time in 10- to 12-year-old …
2014
Background Screen-related behaviours are highly prevalent in schoolchildren. Considering the adverse health effects and the relation of obesity and screen time in childhood, efforts to affect screen use in children are warranted. Parents have been identified as an important influence on children’s screen time and therefore should be involved in prevention programmes. The aim was to examine the mediating role of family-related factors on the effects of the school-based family-focused UP4FUN intervention aimed at screen time in 10- to 12-year-old European children (n child–parent dyads = 1940). Methods A randomised controlled trial was conducted to test the six-week UP4FUN intervention in 10-…
Die Qualität der Hausarzt-Patient-Beziehung. Patientenbezogene Prädiktoren in einer repräsentativen deutschen Bevölkerungsstichprobe
2016
Einleitung: Patientenzentrierung und eine gute Arbeitsallianz sind zentrale Merkmale der hausarztlichen Behandlung. Umfragen zeigen, dass die meisten Deutschen mit der Beziehung zu ihrem Hausarzt zufrieden sind. Jedoch ist offen, welche Faktoren die Qualitat der Beziehung zum Hausarzt beeinflussen. Diese Studie hat daher zum Ziel, patientenbezogene Pradiktoren der Qualitat der Beziehung zwischen Hausarzt und Patient zu identifizieren. Material und Methoden: Personen einer reprasentativen Stichprobe der deutschen Allgemeinbevolkerung wurden im Rahmen einer Querschnittstudie mit standardisierten Fragebogen untersucht. Die Qualitat der Hausarzt-Patient-Beziehung wurde mit der deutschen Version…
Conflicts in Family Relations, Children's Emotions and Agency
2017
What kind of conflicts and tensions do children experience with other children and adults in the family? Content analysis of 32 thematic interviews with 10- to 13-year-old children revealed that while conflicts often concern daily actions, tasks and routines, they also relate to decision-making and fair treatment or to matters threatening the child's sense of emotional security. Parental conflicts and conflicts in child–parent relationships often arouse negative emotions that lead children to suppress their agency. However, conflicts, particularly those between siblings, may also open up possibilities for negotiation and agency.
SIeSTA: From Concept Board to Concept Desktop
2011
Recently published social protection and dependence reports reaffirm that the elderly, the disabled, or those in situations of dependency objectively benefit from continuing to live at home with the assistance from direct family. Currently in Spain - amongst the elderly, or people in a situation of dependency - 8 out of every 10 people stay at home. The end result is that the direct family relations have the responsibility of performing 76% of the tasks during the daily routine where aid is needed. Associations for people with disabilities, however, not only report a lack of adequate aid services, but a lack of direct-family assistance as well. It is necessary, therefore, for an "evolution"…
Approaching Europe: The merchant networks between Finland and Europe during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
1997
Finland offers a good opportunity to study how international trade contacts were established and how they developed. Having been denied trading rights, several Finnish ports were granted direct access to foreign trade in 1765. The hypothesis is that the old business relations with Stockholm traders, the role played by the shipmaster and the government-based consulate networks were crucial in the development of the merchant network abroad during the eighteenth century. Business networks developed from interpersonal contacts towards interorganisational relationships during the nineteenth century. The business networks were in many cases, especially in the home town and with neighbouring towns…
Las novelas de corriente de conciencia y la obra de Hélène Lenoir
2012
La naissance du roman de la modernité s’est marquée par l’intérêt croissant des narrations de la vie intime des personnages. La classique narration omnisciente cède face au progressif développement de l’intimité ; c’est la réponse à l’ardeur «réaliste» qui parcourt le XIXe. De cette façon, les romans du flux de conscience surgissent pour narrer la coulée de pensées, idées et sensations des personnages qui pensent à leurs propos par rapport au monde. Les romans d’Hélène Lenoir, héritiers de cette tendance, se construisent donc autour de l’intimité des personnages tourmentés par leurs relations familiales. The beginning of the modernist novel is been manifested by the increasing interest in t…

Impact of Different Types of Fathers on Family Climate in Young Adulthood: A Multi-perspective Longitudinal Study on 14 to 27 Year Olds and their Fathers In a 13 year longitudinal study, the influence of three types of fathers on the family climate was analyzed. In a sample of 213 subjects, their 169 fathers and their 210 mothers, the family environment ( Family Environment Scales) was examined when the subjects were young adults (M = 26.89, SD = 1.32). The results of the study point to significant changes in family climate in those young adults who described their father as increasingly negative (N = 28) or distant (N = 11) when in adolescence. These two groups showed a more negative famil…
Psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the involvement evaluation questionnaire in caregivers of patients with borderline personality diso…
2018
The involvement evaluation questionnaire (IEQ) was created to evaluate the caregiver's experience of burden and the consequences of providing care to people with psychotic disorders. To date, the IEQ has not been validated with caregivers of people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (BPD). The main objective of the study was to confirm the psychometric properties and factorial structure of the Spanish version of the IEQ in 151 caregivers of people with BPD, with an average age of 54.52 (SD = 9.91). Two models were tested by means of confirmatory factor analysis, following the original factor structure. The Models 1 and 2 displayed adequate fit, with comparative fit index and Tuc…
Earliest Evidence for Social Endogamy in the 9,000-Year-Old-Population of Basta, Jordan
2013
The transition from mobile to sedentary life was one of the greatest social challenges of the human past. Yet little is known about the impact of this fundamental change on social interactions amongst early Neolithic communities, which are best recorded in the Near East. The importance of social processes associated with these economic and ecological changes has long been underestimated. However, ethnographic observations demonstrate that generalized reciprocity – such as open access to resources and land – had to be reduced to a circumscribed group before regular farming and herding could be successfully established. Our aim was thus to investigate the role of familial relationships as one…
