The role of parent-child interactions in developmental psychopathology: methodological and intervention challenges and opportunities
Parenting research has always faced substantial methodological challenges, assumptions and stigma, limiting understanding and translation to more family-centred support. In addition, the focus of most research has focused on the early years with far less knowledge about the role of parents in pre-adolescence, adolescence, and the transition to adulthood or beyond. Parenting work lacks diversity with regards to inclusion across cultural settings and is usually limited to mothers, the role of fathers, grandparents, adoptive and foster parents and step parents is under-represented.
Toddlers, Parents and Culture
One doesn’t have to travel extensively to realize that there are intriguing differences in the ways in which people from different cultures tend to behave. Gartstein and Putnam explore whether these differences are shaped during the early years of life, at the moment when children are just beginning to understand how, when, and why they should express some emotions, and not others. Based on the findings of the Joint Effort Toddler Temperament Consortium (JETTC), which asked parents from 14 different countries multiple questions regarding their main goals and techniques for raising children to be successful in their culture, Gartstein and Putnam analyze how children’s characteristics (bot...

Auf die Väter kommt es an
Was macht einen guten Vater aus? Welche Rolle spielt er bei der Entwicklung seines Kindes? Eine ganz besondere, hat Professor Lieselotte Ahnert herausgefunden. In ihrem Buch enthüllt die Psychologin erstmals wesentliche Erkenntnisse aus ihrer eigenen und der internationalen Väterforschung. Lieselotte Ahnert gibt Antworten auf zentrale Fragen der Vater-Kind-Beziehung: Was machen Väter anders als Mütter? Was können nur sie leisten und welchen Effekt hat das auf die Kinder? Ahnert weist nach, dass Väter viele Facetten der kindlichen Entwicklung bereichern. So haben sie großen Einfluss darauf, wie gut Kinder mit Stress umgehen und wie sich ihre Neugier entwickelt. Ihr Fazit: Väter sind keinesfalls wichtiger als Mütter, aber ihre Wirkung auf die Kinder ist von unschätzbarem Wert.
Surviving the Peace
Surviving the Peace is a monumental feat of ground-level reporting describing two decades of postwar life in Bosnia, specifically among those fighting for refugee rights of return. Unique in its breadth and profoundly humanitarian in its focus, Surviving the Peace situates digestible explanations of the region's bewilderingly complex recent history among interviews, conversations, and tableaus from the lives of everyday Bosnians attempting to make sense of what passes for normal in a postwar society. Essential reading for students of the former Yugoslavia and anyone interested in postwar or post-genocide studies, Surviving the Peace is an instant classic of long-form reporting, an impossible accomplishment without a lifetime of dedication to a place and people.
