This study examined the effect of postpartum intimate partner violence on mother-infant bonding. The researchers surveyed 200 mothers 4-6 weeks postpartum at hospitals in Turkey. Mothers who experienced violence from their partners during the postpartum period, such as being ignored, scolded, abused, or forced into sexual intercourse, had lower mother-infant bonding scores. In contrast, mothers who planned their pregnancy, were satisfied with their baby's sex, breastfed within 30 minutes of birth, and had a marriage initiated by both partners had higher bonding scores. The study suggests intimate partner violence during the postpartum period can negatively impact mother-infant bonding.
Attachment-Based Interventions And Eating Related Disorders In FemalesTracy Morgan
This document describes a study that evaluated the effect of attachment-based interventions on eating disorders in females. 32 elementary school females with eating disorders, obesity, and attachment issues participated. The experimental group mothers received 10 attachment-based intervention sessions over 2.5 months, while the control group received no intervention. Questionnaires assessed attachment disorders, eating disorders, and disorders caused by eating pre- and post-intervention. Results showed the intervention significantly reduced disorders caused by eating in the experimental group compared to the control group at post-test and follow-up. The study concluded attachment-based treatment can help reduce eating disorder symptoms in children.

The study aimed to evaluate women's experiences of postnatal distress during the first year after childbirth. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 women who had experienced psychological issues after giving birth. The interviews were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. The results indicated that women experience various emotional difficulties following childbirth, associated with adjusting to their new role as mothers. The study provides insights that could help improve support for women after childbirth.
The main purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of regular home visits on the developmental indices of low birth weight infants. The present study was an on-site clinical investigation. 90 infants ranging between 1500 to 2500g born in Razi Hospital of Marand town having the entrance criteria to the present study were taken into consideration through the available sampling method and then they were divided into two intervention and control groups. The intervention group has received the whole routine cares since the first to fourth week and then they were visited at home for 45 minutes a week. The control group received the routine cares. The evolutionary indices of both groups were also completed monthly for three months by referring homes. The related data gathering tool was also subjected to the demographic information through registration list and the Persian version of the Low Weight Infant Inventory (LWII) (2 months) that have been completed by the researcher on the birthday, first, second and third months of the birth through the interview. SPSS-15 software and the application of the inferential and descriptive statistical tests (K2 and T-tests) were also applied in order to analyze the related data in this study. The significance level was considered as p<0.05.
More than half of these related research units of both groups had experience (61.5%) and control (55.8%) regarding all women in this study; the mean score of the low weight infants on the first month had not shown any statistical significant difference; but on the second months (p=0.04) and the third months (p=0.001), they had shown statistical significant difference progressively. The healthcare based on home-visit had influence on the recovery indices of the low weight infants. Hence, nurses and other health monitors of the infants should apply for the healthcare programs based on home-visit particularly in caring infants.
Critical Review of Research Evidence Part 3 FDRobert Cope
This document discusses trauma experienced by children in foster care and the potential for EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) therapy to help address it. Children in foster care often experience trauma from being removed from their biological homes as well as potential abuse or neglect. They also face issues from multiple placements and aging out of the system unprepared. EMDR is presented as a promising 8-step therapy that could help youth resolve memories from traumatic experiences. The document examines the scope of problems faced by the foster care population and why addressing trauma is important to help youth as they transition into adulthood.
1. The document discusses how providing free contraception to women could help address psychological issues, reduce abortion rates, and decrease use of emergency contraception pills.
2. It explores factors like the mental health side effects of abortion and emergency contraception, as well as how contraception can help prevent mood disorders and depression.
3. Research is cited showing links between abortion and subsequent anxiety, depression, and substance abuse, as well as higher rates of mental health services usage among women who have abortions compared to those who have not.

Children's exposure to domestic and family violence: an overview of impact, r...FRSA Communications
This document discusses children's exposure to domestic and family violence in Australia. It finds that over 1 in 4 women experience violence from an intimate partner, with children often witnessing this violence. Exposure to violence can negatively impact children's learning, behavior, wellbeing and development. Responses aim to be holistic and trauma-informed, though services are in high demand. The document argues that primary prevention through school-based programs promoting gender equality and respectful relationships is important alongside efforts to support children already exposed to violence.

The study examined how a parenting class and parental work status affected adjustment to parenthood. Twenty parents attended the parenting class, while eight parents did not (the control group). The class covered various parenting topics. Participants completed surveys on parenting self-efficacy, stress, support, behaviors, and knowledge.
Results found no significant differences between the parenting class and control groups on adjustment factors. However, working mothers reported more positive parenting behaviors, greater social support, and less parenting stress than stay-at-home mothers. This suggests work status may impact adjustment to parenthood more than a parenting class, though sample size was small.

The document discusses technical and business undergraduate students' self-efficacy in entrepreneurship. It finds that business undergraduates may have higher self-efficacy in entrepreneurial endeavors than non-business students, as business students had more opportunities to be involved in business activities.

This article summarizes a study that examined the associations between perinatal risk factors (such as prenatal substance exposure, prematurity, and low birthweight) and developmental outcomes in approximately 100 infants adopted from foster care. The study found that perinatal risks like low birthweight correlated with poorer cognitive outcomes, while adoption helped improve developmental outcomes over time, especially for children placed before age 1. The results suggest adoption can help buffer the impact of prenatal risks on infant development.

ABSTRACT
Substance‐dependent mothers, who have grown up with parental
substance abuse, struggle during and after treatment to abstain from
substances while trying to process traumatic experiences and integrate
their family into society. The aim of this study was to explore the social
support available for these mothers to help them stay abstinent and cre-
ate safe family environments for themselves and their children. Using
purposeful sampling, we approached nine mothers admitted for 1 year
to a family ward at a substance abuse clinic and their significant others.
Through in‐depth, qualitative interviews, first with the mothers, later
with their significant others, we investigated characteristics of the avail-
able social support. The findings indicated that the significant others had
limited resources and were themselves exposed to adverse and cumula-
tive psychosocial and socioeconomic risk factors. Their relationships
with the mothers were, nevertheless, close, consistent and reliable.
Supporting the existing social network should be an integrated part of
the work of family welfare services aiming to help substance‐
dependent mothers from families with parental substance abuse to reha-
bilitate and to integrate successfully into local communities.
INTRODUCTION
Substance‐dependent women who have grown up in
families with substance abusing parents have major
challenges to solve when they themselves become
mothers, such as heightened risk for transferring sub-
stance abuse or psychiatric problems to their offspring
(Belsky et al., 2009) and establishing a safe and predict-
able environment for their child without substance
abusing caregivers or family members. We approached
nine women admitted to a family ward at a substance
abuse clinic to learn about the challenges these women
face and how they understand their own situation. All
mothers received inpatient treatment together with their
child during the first year after giving birth. The aim of
the treatment was twofold: learning to lead an abstinent
life and becoming able to care for a child. The first paper
from this study showed how these women’s life courses
had so far been filled with experiences with substance
abuse, traumatic events and insufficient developmental
support (Wiig e.

This document discusses stress and trauma experienced by pediatric nurses. It summarizes previous research on this topic, which found that caring for sick children can cause secondary traumatic stress in nurses. The document then describes a qualitative study of pediatric nurses that identified six prevalent themes related to workplace stress: 1) feeling pressure to perform despite emotion, 2) feeling unprepared, 3) inability to separate work from personal life, 4) being consumed by traumatic experiences, 5) using positivity to cope, and 6) needing further research on this issue.
The proposed Slow and Steady substance abuse treatment program for juvenile offenders includes mentoring, parenting groups, family therapy, and online support. Youth participants will be mentored by former clients and have opportunities to become mentors or counselors. Parents will participate in parenting groups and family therapy to support treatment. Online support groups will help maintain a community for clients and their families during and after the program. The goal is to successfully treat substance abuse and prevent future drug use through mentoring and family involvement.

It was presented by several experts, including Dr. Maureen Black from RTI International, Dr. Joy Noel Baumgartner from Duke University, Mohammed Ali from Catholic Relief Services, Dr. Chessa Lutter from RTI International, and Dr. Erin Milner from USAID. The discussion covered topics like the importance of early childhood development, the Nurturing Care Framework, metrics and measures for childhood development, partnerships for early childhood programs, and challenges and next steps.
Therapeutic relationships with children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis and their families requires understanding development tasks, providing choices to promote independence, and establishing trust. Barriers like lack of experience and resistance to care can be addressed through play therapy, bibliotherapy, and reminding the family of treatment importance. Community supports for this family include exercise funding, counseling, and social programs to help manage the challenges of cystic fibrosis.

Adult Attachment as a Moderator of Treatment Outcome for Generalized
Anxiety Disorder: Comparison Between Cognitive–Behavioral Therapy
(CBT) Plus Supportive Listening and CBT Plus Interpersonal and
Emotional Processing Therapy
Michelle G. Newman, Louis G. Castonguay, Nicholas C. Jacobson, and Ginger A. Moore
The Pennsylvania State University
Objective: To determine whether baseline dimensions of adult insecure attachment (avoidant and anxious)
moderated outcome in a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial comparing cognitive– behavioral
therapy (CBT) plus supportive listening (CBT � SL) versus CBT plus interpersonal and emotional processing
therapy (CBT � I/EP). Method: Eighty-three participants diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)
were recruited from the community and assigned randomly to CBT � SL (n � 40) or to CBT � I/EP (n �
43) within a study using an additive design. PhD-level psychologists treated participants. Blind assessors
evaluated participants at pretreatment, posttreatment, 6-month, 12-month, and 2-year follow-up with a
composite of self-report and assessor-rated GAD symptom measures (Penn State Worry Questionnaire,
Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale, Clinician’s Severity Rating). Avoidant and anxious attachment were assessed
using self-reported dismissing and angry states of mind, respectively, on the Perceptions of Adult Attachment
Questionnaire. Results: Consistent with our prediction, at all assessments higher levels of dismissing styles in
those who received CBT � I/EP predicted greater change in GAD symptoms compared with those who
received CBT � SL for whom dismissiveness was unrelated to the change. At postassessment, higher angry
attachment was associated with less change in GAD symptoms for those receiving CBT � I/EP, compared
with CBT � SL, for whom anger was unrelated to change in GAD symptoms. Pretreatment attachment-
related anger failed to moderate outcome at other time points and therefore, these moderation effects were
more short-lived than the ones for dismissing attachment. Conclusions: When compared with CBT � SL,
CBT � I/EP may be better for individuals with GAD who have relatively higher dismissing styles of
attachment.
What is the public health significance of this article?
When choosing a treatment for individuals with generalized anxiety disorder, this study suggests the
potential importance of taking adult attachment into account.

According to attachment theory, children’s experiences with care-
givers are internalized as cognitive–affective models of interpersonal
relationships (e.g., Ainsworth, Blehar, Waters, & Wall, 1978). Such
internal working models are carried forward into adulthood and in-

In my Prenatal and Infant Development class, I was required to conduct a literature review over an article related to infant development. In the future, as a Women's Health Nurse Practitioner, I hope to work with expectant mothers and apply the knowledge I have learned. I learned about prenatal care during the first year of life and its impact on the mother and infant. This information could be very applicable when it comes to working with expecting mothers.
The document summarizes a research study that examined risk factors for poor outcomes in young mothers referred to the Sure Start "Young Mums to Be" program in West Lothian, Scotland. The study found that the most significant risk factors predicting further social work involvement were a history of substance misuse, criminal justice involvement, abuse, and other family problems. While many risk factors for poor outcomes are interdependent, none alone predicted engagement with the antenatal support program. The implications are that early identification of risk factors is crucial to ensure appropriate support, and a multi-agency approach is needed due to the interdependency of risks.

“I am a Mother and Care Giver of My Child” Psycho-social needs Looking after ...RSIS International
Background:
Mothers nurture children early in life, in case of illness, she continues to provide caregiving role especially in the neurosurgical conditions like TBI. Psychosocial needs of mothers looking after children with TBI is over looked. Thus, the present study focused to understand the psychosocial needs of mothers providing care for children with TBI.
Methodology:
The study adopted the qualitative approach, 30 care givers were recruited for the study after obtaining informed consent. The data was collected in face to face interviews. All the interviews were audio recorded. Thematic analysis was used to for qualitative data and descriptive statistics were used for quantitative variables. The R software was used for data analysis.
Results:
The study findings reported that average age was found to be 32.13 ± 5.99 years. The majority belong to Below Poverty Line (BPL). All mothers have experienced mild level distress, anxiety and stress. From the qualitative analysis, the major themes were: information about the illness and treatment choices, financial difficulties, mothers personal feelings and concerns, social support and coping, and long term professional supportive care.
Conclusion:
There is an urgent need to provide psychosocial care for mothers’ of children with TBI during hospitalization as well as at home and need to form advocacy group in the community.
The practitioner conducted a psychiatric assessment of a male adolescent patient presenting with depression. The practitioner established rapport but could have improved the assessment by asking more gender-appropriate questions initially. A thorough assessment is important for children and adolescents and should involve standardized rating scales and input from parents/guardians due to challenges interviewing this population. Key areas for the practitioner to assess further include suicide risk, comorbidities, and developing a safety plan.
1) The study examined the relationship between parental communication and body image among 30 University of California, Santa Barbara students.
2) It found that high levels of parent communication were correlated with high levels of body satisfaction in students.
3) Mother-daughter and mother-son relationships appeared to be most important in developing a healthy body image.
This study examines the impacts of childhood traumatic brain injury (TBI) on family dynamics. It will compare family interactions and sibling outcomes between an experimental group consisting of children with TBI and their families, and a control group of children without TBI and their families. Researchers will observe family interactions and score all participants using the Family Assessment Measure Version III to compare differences between the two groups. It is predicted that family interactions and sibling outcomes will be significantly different between those families with a child who experienced TBI compared to the control group families.
Adolescence is the most vulnerable period to reproductive health problems.
These problems include early pregnancy, unsafe abortion, sexually
infections transmitted (STIs) including the human immunodeficiency virus
(HIV), sexual abuse. Access for sexuality education and reproductive health
services to comprehensive and youth-friendly was limited. This study aims
to determine the effectiveness of peer educators and guidance and
counselling teachers in adolescent reproductive health level of knowledge.
This is a quantitative study with a quasi-experimental nonequivalent control
group design with treatment groups using peer educators and teacher as
control groups. The sample size was 70 respondents. Data was collected by
questionnaire that already had validity and reliability test. Data analysis used
univariate, t-test and logistic regression. The results of this study showed
that the provision of information was more effective through guidance
conselling teachers (p=0.000, exp B=14.5). This study recommends that
improve adolescents’ reproductive knowledge need to optimize the role of
guidance and counseling teachers in providing information.

Parenting Practices among Depressed
Mothers in the Child Welfare System
Patricia L. Kohl, Jacqueline Njeri Kagotho, and David Dixon
The purpose of this study was to analyze a nationally representative sample of families referred
to Child Protective Services (CPS) agencies, the National Survey of Child and Adolescent
Weil-Being, to examine the association between maternal depression and parenting practices
over a 36-month follow-up period.Three hypotheses were tested: (1) Depressed mothers are'
more likely to demonstrate harsh parenting than are nondepressed mothers; (2) depressed
mothers are more likely to demonstrate neglectful parenting than are nondepressed mothers;
and (3) depressed mothers are more likely to demonstrate emotional maltreatment than are
nondepressed mothers. The interaction between depression and time was also analyzed for
each parenting practice to determine how changes in maternal depression affected changes in
parenting. The sample for this study was 1,536 mother-child dyads in which the child was age
three to 10 years and remained in the home after a CPS investigation. Depression remained
high across time points and was associated with increased risk of emotional maltreatment and
neglect over a 36-inonth period. In addition, self-reported emotional maltreatment remained
high across time points. Implications of this work are the needs for better identification of
mental health needs for mothers entering the child welfare system and parent training to
specifically address positive parenting.

Parenting Practices among DepressedMothers in the Child Welf.docxhoney690131
The study analyzed parenting practices among depressed mothers involved with the child welfare system using data from the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being. It found that maternal depression was associated with increased risk of emotional maltreatment and neglect over 36 months. Depression levels remained high over time and emotional maltreatment risk also remained elevated. This implies the need for better identification of mental health needs for mothers in the system and parent training to address positive parenting practices.

Genetic diversity is important for long-term population viability and supports biodiversity. A lack of genetic diversity threatens survival, as seen in populations like the Florida panther which faces health issues due to inbreeding. Population management considers conservation values and aims to balance costs and benefits through efforts like reintroducing invasive species. Conservation methods include ex situ options like zoos and botanical gardens which support genetics but can also reduce diversity, as well as in situ protections under the Endangered Species Act which helps preservation but faces challenges in enforcement.

The study examined how a parenting class and parental work status affected adjustment to parenthood. Twenty parents attended the parenting class, while eight parents did not (the control group). The class covered various parenting topics. Participants completed surveys on parenting self-efficacy, stress, support, behaviors, and knowledge.
Results found no significant differences between the parenting class and control groups on adjustment factors. However, working mothers reported more positive parenting behaviors, greater social support, and less parenting stress than stay-at-home mothers. This suggests work status may impact adjustment to parenthood more than a parenting class, though sample size was small.

This article summarizes a study that examined the associations between perinatal risk factors (such as prenatal substance exposure, prematurity, and low birthweight) and developmental outcomes in approximately 100 infants adopted from foster care. The study found that perinatal risks like low birthweight correlated with poorer cognitive outcomes, while adoption helped improve developmental outcomes over time, especially for children placed before age 1. The results suggest adoption can help buffer the impact of prenatal risks on infant development.

ABSTRACT
Substance‐dependent mothers, who have grown up with parental
substance abuse, struggle during and after treatment to abstain from
substances while trying to process traumatic experiences and integrate
their family into society. The aim of this study was to explore the social
support available for these mothers to help them stay abstinent and cre-
ate safe family environments for themselves and their children. Using
purposeful sampling, we approached nine mothers admitted for 1 year
to a family ward at a substance abuse clinic and their significant others.
Through in‐depth, qualitative interviews, first with the mothers, later
with their significant others, we investigated characteristics of the avail-
able social support. The findings indicated that the significant others had
limited resources and were themselves exposed to adverse and cumula-
tive psychosocial and socioeconomic risk factors. Their relationships
with the mothers were, nevertheless, close, consistent and reliable.
Supporting the existing social network should be an integrated part of
the work of family welfare services aiming to help substance‐
dependent mothers from families with parental substance abuse to reha-
bilitate and to integrate successfully into local communities.
INTRODUCTION
Substance‐dependent women who have grown up in
families with substance abusing parents have major
challenges to solve when they themselves become
mothers, such as heightened risk for transferring sub-
stance abuse or psychiatric problems to their offspring
(Belsky et al., 2009) and establishing a safe and predict-
able environment for their child without substance
abusing caregivers or family members. We approached
nine women admitted to a family ward at a substance
abuse clinic to learn about the challenges these women
face and how they understand their own situation. All
mothers received inpatient treatment together with their
child during the first year after giving birth. The aim of
the treatment was twofold: learning to lead an abstinent
life and becoming able to care for a child. The first paper
from this study showed how these women’s life courses
had so far been filled with experiences with substance
abuse, traumatic events and insufficient developmental
support (Wiig e.

This document discusses stress and trauma experienced by pediatric nurses. It summarizes previous research on this topic, which found that caring for sick children can cause secondary traumatic stress in nurses. The document then describes a qualitative study of pediatric nurses that identified six prevalent themes related to workplace stress: 1) feeling pressure to perform despite emotion, 2) feeling unprepared, 3) inability to separate work from personal life, 4) being consumed by traumatic experiences, 5) using positivity to cope, and 6) needing further research on this issue.
The proposed Slow and Steady substance abuse treatment program for juvenile offenders includes mentoring, parenting groups, family therapy, and online support. Youth participants will be mentored by former clients and have opportunities to become mentors or counselors. Parents will participate in parenting groups and family therapy to support treatment. Online support groups will help maintain a community for clients and their families during and after the program. The goal is to successfully treat substance abuse and prevent future drug use through mentoring and family involvement.

Adult Attachment as a Moderator of Treatment Outcome for Generalized
Anxiety Disorder: Comparison Between Cognitive–Behavioral Therapy
(CBT) Plus Supportive Listening and CBT Plus Interpersonal and
Emotional Processing Therapy
Michelle G. Newman, Louis G. Castonguay, Nicholas C. Jacobson, and Ginger A. Moore
The Pennsylvania State University
Objective: To determine whether baseline dimensions of adult insecure attachment (avoidant and anxious)
moderated outcome in a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial comparing cognitive– behavioral
therapy (CBT) plus supportive listening (CBT � SL) versus CBT plus interpersonal and emotional processing
therapy (CBT � I/EP). Method: Eighty-three participants diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)
were recruited from the community and assigned randomly to CBT � SL (n � 40) or to CBT � I/EP (n �
43) within a study using an additive design. PhD-level psychologists treated participants. Blind assessors
evaluated participants at pretreatment, posttreatment, 6-month, 12-month, and 2-year follow-up with a
composite of self-report and assessor-rated GAD symptom measures (Penn State Worry Questionnaire,
Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale, Clinician’s Severity Rating). Avoidant and anxious attachment were assessed
using self-reported dismissing and angry states of mind, respectively, on the Perceptions of Adult Attachment
Questionnaire. Results: Consistent with our prediction, at all assessments higher levels of dismissing styles in
those who received CBT � I/EP predicted greater change in GAD symptoms compared with those who
received CBT � SL for whom dismissiveness was unrelated to the change. At postassessment, higher angry
attachment was associated with less change in GAD symptoms for those receiving CBT � I/EP, compared
with CBT � SL, for whom anger was unrelated to change in GAD symptoms. Pretreatment attachment-
related anger failed to moderate outcome at other time points and therefore, these moderation effects were
more short-lived than the ones for dismissing attachment. Conclusions: When compared with CBT � SL,
CBT � I/EP may be better for individuals with GAD who have relatively higher dismissing styles of
attachment.

When choosing a treatment for individuals with generalized anxiety disorder, this study suggests the
potential importance of taking adult attachment into account.

In my Prenatal and Infant Development class, I was required to conduct a literature review over an article related to infant development. In the future, as a Women's Health Nurse Practitioner, I hope to work with expectant mothers and apply the knowledge I have learned.

The document summarizes a research study that examined risk factors for poor outcomes in young mothers referred to the Sure Start "Young Mums to Be" program in West Lothian, Scotland. The study found that the most significant risk factors predicting further social work involvement were a history of substance misuse, criminal justice involvement, abuse, and other family problems. While many risk factors for poor outcomes are interdependent, none alone predicted engagement with the antenatal support program. The implications are that early identification of risk factors is crucial to ensure appropriate support, and a multi-agency approach is needed due to the interdependency of risks.

“I am a Mother and Care Giver of My Child” Psycho-social needs Looking after ...RSIS International
Background:
Mothers nurture children early in life, in case of illness, she continues to provide caregiving role especially in the neurosurgical conditions like TBI. Psychosocial needs of mothers looking after children with TBI is over looked. Thus, the present study focused to understand the psychosocial needs of mothers providing care for children with TBI.
Methodology:
The study adopted the qualitative approach, 30 care givers were recruited for the study after obtaining informed consent. The data was collected in face to face interviews. All the interviews were audio recorded. Thematic analysis was used to for qualitative data and descriptive statistics were used for quantitative variables. The R software was used for data analysis.
Results:
The study findings reported that average age was found to be 32.13 ± 5.99 years. The majority belong to Below Poverty Line (BPL). All mothers have experienced mild level distress, anxiety and stress. From the qualitative analysis, the major themes were: information about the illness and treatment choices, financial difficulties, mothers personal feelings and concerns, social support and coping, and long term professional supportive care.
Conclusion:
There is an urgent need to provide psychosocial care for mothers’ of children with TBI during hospitalization as well as at home and need to form advocacy group in the community.
The practitioner conducted a psychiatric assessment of a male adolescent patient presenting with depression. The practitioner established rapport but could have improved the assessment by asking more gender-appropriate questions initially. A thorough assessment is important for children and adolescents and should involve standardized rating scales and input from parents/guardians due to challenges interviewing this population. Key areas for the practitioner to assess further include suicide risk, comorbidities, and developing a safety plan.
1) The study examined the relationship between parental communication and body image among 30 University of California, Santa Barbara students.
2) It found that high levels of parent communication were correlated with high levels of body satisfaction in students.
3) Mother-daughter and mother-son relationships appeared to be most important in developing a healthy body image.
This study examines the impacts of childhood traumatic brain injury (TBI) on family dynamics. It will compare family interactions and sibling outcomes between an experimental group consisting of children with TBI and their families, and a control group of children without TBI and their families. Researchers will observe family interactions and score all participants using the Family Assessment Measure Version III to compare differences between the two groups. It is predicted that family interactions and sibling outcomes will be significantly different between those families with a child who experienced TBI compared to the control group families.
Adolescence is the most vulnerable period to reproductive health problems.
These problems include early pregnancy, unsafe abortion, sexually
infections transmitted (STIs) including the human immunodeficiency virus
(HIV), sexual abuse. Access for sexuality education and reproductive health
services to comprehensive and youth-friendly was limited. This study aims
to determine the effectiveness of peer educators and guidance and
counselling teachers in adolescent reproductive health level of knowledge.
This is a quantitative study with a quasi-experimental nonequivalent control
group design with treatment groups using peer educators and teacher as
control groups. The sample size was 70 respondents. Data was collected by
questionnaire that already had validity and reliability test. Data analysis used
univariate, t-test and logistic regression. The results of this study showed
that the provision of information was more effective through guidance
conselling teachers (p=0.000, exp B=14.5). This study recommends that
improve adolescents’ reproductive knowledge need to optimize the role of
guidance and counseling teachers in providing information.

Parenting Practices among Depressed
Mothers in the Child Welfare System
Patricia L. Kohl, Jacqueline Njeri Kagotho, and David Dixon
The purpose of this study was to analyze a nationally representative sample of families referred
to Child Protective Services (CPS) agencies, the National Survey of Child and Adolescent
Weil-Being, to examine the association between maternal depression and parenting practices
over a 36-month follow-up period.Three hypotheses were tested: (1) Depressed mothers are'
more likely to demonstrate harsh parenting than are nondepressed mothers; (2) depressed
mothers are more likely to demonstrate neglectful parenting than are nondepressed mothers;
and (3) depressed mothers are more likely to demonstrate emotional maltreatment than are
nondepressed mothers. The interaction between depression and time was also analyzed for
each parenting practice to determine how changes in maternal depression affected changes in
parenting. The sample for this study was 1,536 mother-child dyads in which the child was age
three to 10 years and remained in the home after a CPS investigation. Depression remained
high across time points and was associated with increased risk of emotional maltreatment and
neglect over a 36-inonth period. In addition, self-reported emotional maltreatment remained
high across time points. Implications of this work are the needs for better identification of
mental health needs for mothers entering the child welfare system and parent training to
specifically address positive parenting.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic.

purpose of this study was carried out to determine the effects of intimate partner violence
on postpartum mother-infant bonding levels. Methodology: A total of 200 mothers (4-6
weeks) who were admitted to obstetrics, gynecology and pediatric outpatient clinics of a
Training and Research hospital that are located in Turkey’s Eastern Anatolia Regions
participated in this descriptive study. Data were collected in 2015/ 2016. Results: Mothers
who were ignored, scolded, abused, scared, forced to sexual intercourse, and sexually
humiliated by their partners received lower mean scores in MIBS than those who did not
have exposure to these maltreatments (p<0.05). Additionally, those who planned their
pregnancy, those who were satisfied with their baby’s sex, those who breastfed their baby
within the first 30 minutes after delivery, and those who had coupleinitiated marriage
received higher mean scores in the scale. Conclusions: Intimate partner violence (IPV) in
postpartum period negatively affects mother-infant bonding. Prevention of violence in this
2. period is vital for the health of the mother, the baby and the community. There is a need for
further action to detect and prevent this type of violence. From the start of pregnancy,
parents should be trained on how to get used to the postpartum period and display positive
parenting behaviors. Key words: Intimate partner violence, mother-infant bonding,
postpartum violence, postpartum period nursing Introduct?on Postpartum is a period when
a new family order is set up due to joining of a new member and when parents experience
changes in their feelings and relationships in the process of transition to parenthood
(Bicking Kinsey, Baptiste-Roberts, Zhu, & Kjerulff, 2014). This period can be both a positive
period for the family and a period of experiencing crisis (Deave, Johnson, & Ingram, 2008).
The first postpartum days are difficult for mothers who have to adapt to their infants,
postpartum ailments, the new order in the family and the changes in their bodily images.
The process of a mother’s developing loving bonds
www.internationaljournalofcaringsciences.org with her baby as a result of a satisfactory
interaction between her and her baby is referred to as ‘maternal attachment’ (Tietz, Zietlow,
& Reck, 2014). Maternal attachment begins shortly before birth and continues to intensify
during the postpartum months (Klaus, Kennel, & Klaus, 1995). Attachment of a mother to
her baby with love is one of the most important components of healthy growth and
development of the baby (C?nar & Ozturk, 2014) Effect of Postpartum Violence
ResearchStudies have specified some factors positively affecting the mother-infant bonding.
They include the pregnancy being a planned and wanted one, mother and infant sharing the
same International Journal of Caring Sciences September-December 2018 Volume 11 | Issue
3| Page1831 room in the postpartum period, a kangaroo care being given and breastfeeding
having been started in the first half an hour, the infant being healthy, the mother being
knowledgeable about child care, the mother adopting a motherhood role, the mother having
had ive attachment relationship with her own mother during her childhood, the
socioeconomic status of the family being adequate and the mother being able to receive
social from her loved ones in coping with the problems she faces (Shin, Park, & Kim, 2006;
Baker & McGrath, 2011; Dodwell, 2010; Kim et al., 2011; Johnson, 2013). Father’s to child
care and good relations and marital satisfaction between parents are also among the factors
affecting mother-infant attachment positively. (Gharaibeh & Hamlan, 2011; Durualp, Kaytez
& Girgin Aykanat, 2017; Kivijarvia, Raiha, Virtanen, Lertola, & Riha, 2004). The factors
affecting mother-infant bonding negatively have been specified as the mother being
stressful, strained or depressive, or suffering pain. (Bicking Kinsey, BaptisteRoberts, Zhu, &
Kjerulff, 2014; Edhborg, Nasreen, & Kabir, 2011; Zlotnick, Capezza, & Parker, 2011; Muzik et
al., 2013). The difficulties experienced in the postpartum period may raise conflicts in the
family and increase the possibility of domestic violence (Saito, Ceedy, Cooke, & Chaboyer,
2012; Adenisa, Oyugbo, Oladokun, & Olubukola, 2011; Islam, Broidy, Baird & Mazerolle,
2017). Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a worldwide public health concern and a chronic
stressor that predominantly affects women of reproductive age (Beydoun, Al-Sahab,
Beydoun, & Tamin, 2010). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention defines intimate
partner violence as ‘‘physical violence, sexual violence, threats of physical/sexual violence,
and psychological/emotional abuse perpetrated by a current or former spouse, common-
law spouse, non-marital dating partners, or boyfriends/girl friends of the same or opposite
3. sex’’ (Chang et al., 2005). Physical violence is often the focus of research, despite the fact
that psychological or emotional violence is more common, and has been shown to have as
detrimental an impact on physical and mental health as physical violence. Psychological
violence showed a strong association with postnatal depression, even in the absence of
physical or sexual violence. (Ludermir, Lewis, Valongueiro, de Aravjo, & Araya, 2010). A
study made with mothers in their www.internationaljournalofcaringsciences.org
postpartum periods in Bangladesh states that the type and time of the violence experienced
are also important in the extent to which intimate partner violence affects psychological
health (Islam, Broidy, Baird & Mazerolle, 2017). Violence experienced in the postpartum
period may affect mother-infant bonding negatively because studies have shown that
women who are exposed to violence in their postpartum periods go into depression more
(Beydoun, Al-Sahab, Beydoun, & Tamim, 2010; Kothari et al., 2016; Janssen, Heaman,
Urquia, O’Campo, & Thiessen, 2012; Devries et al., 2013; Tsai, Tomlinson, Comulada, &
Rotheram-Borus, 2016; Islam, Broidy, Baird & Mazerolle, 2017; Orun, Yalc?n, & Mutlu,
2013) and women in depression exhibit poorer mother-infant bonding (Edhborg, Nasreen,
& Kabir, 2011; Zlotnick, Capezza, & Parker, 2011; Muzik et al., 2013). Effect of Postpartum
Violence ResearchTherefore, this study was carried out to determine the effects of IPV on
postpartum mother-infant bonding levels. Answers to the following questions were sought
in the study: 1. How is the mother-infant bonding in mothers who are exposed to violence in
their postpartum periods? 2. What are the factors affecting the mother-infant bonding in
mothers who are exposed to violence in their postpartum periods? Mater?al and Methods
Study design In this study, we employed a cross-sectional, comparative research design.
Before starting the survey, no identity information was requested from mothers, and they
were given an explanation about the importance of interview confidentiality, taking into
consideration the questions on personal privacy. A separate interview room was set apart
from the outpatient clinic room, in order for the mothers not to be exposed to any influence
when responding to survey questions. A message of “Do Not Disturb” was attached to the
interview room door to prevent others’ entrance. The mothers were asked to read and
respond all questions by themselves, without any intervention of the researchers. The
researcher stayed with mothers in the room. The purpose of the study was explained, and
all mothers completed the questionnaire in approximately 25 minutes. The mothers were
asked to consider only the postnatal process while filling out the questionnaire

Page1832 Participants and setting The research population was who attended Erzincan
Training and Research Hospital (Erzincan, Turkey). The sample was purposive among
mothers who met the inclusion criteria for the research: 4-6 weeks postpartum period,
understand and speak Turkish, aged between 18 and 44 years and who delivered a healthy
baby who did not require extensive postnatal care at at both hospitals. Data collection and
instruments The data were collected by the researchers between October 2015 and January
2016. A total of 200 mothers were collected. Volunteers who participated in the study that
referred to the Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic, and those who met the research criteria
were included in the study between the date Training and Research s mentioned. Personal
Information Form A form of 46 questions was used in the survey to directly question
4. mothers’ socio-demographic characteristics (age, education level, working status, income
level and so on) and obstetric histories as well as physical, emotional, economic and sexual
violence they experienced in the postpartum period. The researchers utilized the literature
to create this form (Perrelli, Zambaldi, Cantilino, & Sougey, 2014; Kavlak, & ?irin, 2009;
Alhusen, Hayat, & Gross, 2013). ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ questions, which could be easily answered by
mothers, were asked to determine IPV. The mothers were asked to consider only their
postpartum period while responding to the survey questions. Maternal Attachment
Inventory (MAI) This scale was developed by Mary E. Muller in 1994 to measure maternal
feelings and behaviors. Kavlak & ?irin (2009) adapted the scale into Turkish culture. This
26-item scale is a 4-point Likert-type scale ranging from “always” to “never”. An overall
score is calculated as the sum of the scores received from all scale items. The lowest and
highest scores in the scale are 26 and 104, respectively. A higher score indicates a higher
mother-infant bonding level (Muller, 1994; Muller, 1996). MAI is applied after the first four
weeks of the postpartum period. Therefore, the
www.internationaljournalofcaringsciences.org mothers into 4-6 weeks of their postpartum
period participated in this study. Data analysis We analyzed data using SPSS version 20.0.
Descriptive statistics are presented in the form of numbers, mean, standard deviations (SD),
percentage, minimum and maximum values. The relationship of participants’ socio-
demographic characteristics and health histories with their mother-infant bonding levels
were analyzed with a ?2-test. Normal distribution was determined by Shapiro–Wilk test.
Mann-Whitney U test for comparison of binary variables of scores. Kruskall Wallis test for
multiple group comparisons were used. Effect of Postpartum Violence ResearchMann-
Whitney U test was used as a further analysis in multiple group comparisons Spearman’s
correlation analysis was used for relationship analyses. In this study, Cronbach’s alpha
value of the scale was found to be 0.95. Ethical consideration Ethics committee approval
was gained from the Erzincan University Ethics Board (approval no: 10/2). Verbal and
written consent indicating their voluntary participation was obtained from the women who
agreed to participate in the study after they had received information about the purpose of
the study. Results Sample characteristics The mean age of the mothers was 26.71 ± 4.58
years with a range of 17-40. The mean age of their partners was 30.78 ± 4.39 years with a
range of 20-45. 24.5% and 23% of the mothers were primary and high school graduates,
respectively. 24% of their partners were primary school graduates. 84% of the mothers
benefited from social security and 72.5% had a “moderate” income level. Among the
mothers; 50.5% experienced a natural delivery in their last birth, 86.5% planned the
pregnancy, 78% were trained on the postpartum period (87.9% of the trained mothers
received this training from a health professional), and 51.5% had postpartum problems
mostly including breast problems (69.2%). The mean number of pregnancies of the mothers
was 2.37 ± 1.42 with a range of 1-9, and the mean number of their living children was 2.08 ±
1.06 with a range of 1-6. International Journal of Caring Sciences September-December
