This study examined longitudinal trajectories of parental involvement across middle and high school, and how these trajectories related to adolescents’ academic, behavioral, and emotional adjustment.

Parents’ early life stressful experiences have lifelong consequences, not only for themselves but also for their children. The current study utilized a sample of military families (n 266) including data from both active-duty and civilian parents and their adolescent children.

This study examined outcomes of a STEP parent training program in several areas of family functioning identified by the so-called McMaster model of family health.

Background: Some evidence suggests parents are drawn to media-based interventions over face-to-face interventions, but little is known about the factors associated with parents’ use of Internet-based or Internet-enhanced programs, especially among military families.

This study evaluates and compares the effectiveness of three group interventions on trauma symptoms for children who have been sexually abused. All of the groups followed the same treatment protocol, with two of them incorporating variations of animal-assisted therapy.

In the current prospective observational study, the impact of short-term separation on female spouses of male military officers who were scheduled to participate in a resident training program was evaluated.

The present brief report examined whether number of deployments, relationship satisfaction, and the interaction between number of deployments and relationship satisfaction predicted Navy members’ reports of perpetrating physical partner violence. Participants were 80 U.S.

Objective: Increases in the frequency and length of military deployments have raised concerns about the well-being of military families.
