The effect of career‐related parental support on life satisfaction among vocational school students

AbstractThe current study examines hope and career adaptability as two potential mediators, parent–child closeness as a moderator of the relationship between career‐related parental support and life satisfaction. A total of 521 vocational high school students responded to this study. The result revealed that hope and career adaptability independently and serially mediated the relationship between parental career‐related support and life satisfaction. Moreover, the moderating effect of parent–child closeness on career‐related parental support and hope was found. When students' parent–child closeness was high (vs. low), the indirect pathway linking parental career‐related support to hope to career adaptability to life satisfaction was stronger. This study enlightens parents should give career‐related support to their children and establish a close bond with children.

Parents’ hope in perinatal and neonatal palliative care: a scoping review

BackgroundThe diagnosis of a life-limiting condition of a child in the perinatal or neonatal period is a threat to parental hopes. Hope is an interactional and multidimensional construct, and in palliative care, it is a determinant of quality of life, survival, acceptance and peaceful death.ObjectiveTo map scientific evidence on parents’ hope in perinatal and neonatal palliative care contexts.Methoda scoping review theoretically grounded on Dufault and Martocchio’s Framework, following the Joanna Briggs Institute methodological recommendations. Searches were performed until May 2023 in the MEDLINE, CINAHL and PsycINFO databases. The searches returned 1341 studies.ResultsEligible papers included 27 studies, most of which were carried out in the United States under a phenomenological or literature review approach. The centrality of women’s perspectives in the context of pregnancy and perinatal palliative care was identified. The parental hope experience is articulated in dealing with the uncertainty of information and diagnosis, an approach to which interaction with health professionals is a determinant and potentially distressful element. Hope was identified as one of the determinants of coping and, consequently, linked to autonomy and parenthood. Cognitive and affiliative dimensions were the hope dimensions that predominated in the results, which corresponded to the parents’ ability to formulate realistic goals and meaningful interpersonal relationships, respectively.ConclusionHope is a force capable of guiding parents along the path of uncertainties experienced through the diagnosis of a condition that compromises their child’s life. Health professionals can manage the family’s hope by establishing sensitive therapeutic relationships that focus on the dimension of hope. The need for advanced research and intervention in parental and family hope are some of the points made in this study.Protocol registrationhttps://osf.io/u9xr5/.

Practical considerations for prognostic communication in pediatric cancer

High-quality communication is essential for the optimal care of children with cancer and their families. There are opportunities for pediatric oncologists to engage in clear and compassionate prognostic communication across the disease trajectory including at the time of diagnosis, disease recurrence or progression, and end of life. Contrary to previously held beliefs, prognostic disclosure supports parental hope and meets the needs and expectations of families who prefer honest conversations about prognosis. These communication encounters can be challenging with many oncologists having little training in this important skill. In this summary, we aim to provide practical guidance for prognostic communication in pediatric cancer across the illness trajectory giving phrases we have found helpful including a brief overview of some published communication frameworks utilized in the care of pediatric oncology patients and families.

“What is early intervention? I had no idea”: Chinese parents’ experiences of early supports for their autistic children in Australia

BackgroundParents should be central to early supports for their autistic children, with parent involvement in and satisfaction with supports influencing child outcomes. Migrant parents likely experience different barriers to navigating and participating in early supports for their autistic children, but we have limited data here. MethodsThrough a community-partnered participatory approach, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 19 migrant Chinese parents of autistic children about their experiences of the diagnosis and early intervention (EI) process. Interviews were conducted in home languages by other parents. We analysed data using reflexive thematic analysis. ResultsParents described myriad obstacles to accessing early supports with many related to being a Chinese migrant in Australia. Parents reported difficulties accepting their children’s differences, faced language barriers, experienced stigmatisation/discrimination, and had limited knowledge of autism supports/systems. Funding issues, limited availability of supports and poorly coordinated services were additional challenges. Parents described having little choice and control over supports, often unable to access culturally-specific services. Nonetheless, parents explained how dedicated they were to their children and effectively utilised informal networks to better access supports for themselves and their children. Accessing EI gave parents hope, providing them with specific goals and strategies. ConclusionIt is recommended that professionals clearly communicate with migrant parents about autism and available post-diagnostic autism services/supports, including how to access these. Connecting parents with informal, community-specific services should especially be considered for migrant families. We recommend other potentially useful adaptations to better support migrant Chinese parents in navigating early supports for their autistic children.

From “screen time” to screen times: Measuring the temporality of media use in the messy reality of family life

Abstract The discrepancy between children’s actual amount of viewing time and parents’ accounts of their concerns, rules, and parental mediation choices has been documented in empirical research, and typically interpreted through the lens of the Uses and Gratifications theory – showing how parents change their attitudes towards screen media in order to satisfy their own needs. Based on a qualitative longitudinal research project, including app-based media diaries, with 20 families with at least one child aged eight or younger, we aim to make two contributions to the literature. With regard to theory, we aim to highlight the heterogeneous and contingent ways of balancing the place of digital media in children’s lives that arise from parents navigating screen time discourses, social pressures, and daily schedules. With regard to methods, we argue for the combination of qualitative data and app-based media diaries to contextualise and interpret potential discrepancies between reported screen time and parental anxieties or hopes about digital media.

Making sense of the parenting ‘soft/hard split’

AbstractThis paper explores the common parenting style tension around nurture versus limit‐setting often evident when working with families with a symptomatic child. Firstly it will delve into the parenting ‘soft/hard split’ with an overview of the literature on parenting styles. Next, it summarises the appearance of this phenomenon in the family therapy literature during its formative days, noting how Bowen, Minuchin, Haley, MRI (Bateson), and the Milan associates respond to this parent presentation in their approaches. Next, the paper outlines recent iterations of these family therapy interventions. An expanded discussion follows on Bowen theory's understanding of the parenting tension triangle. The article then outlines elements of the author's qualitative research study of parents' experience of adolescents' mental health treatment where the ‘soft/hard split’ emerged as a repeating theme. Finally, a clinical intervention based on Bowen theory, the Parent Hope Project, is outlined for how it addresses the parenting ‘soft/hard split.’ The goal is to contribute to understanding this phenomenon and its implications for clinical practice.

SOCIAL STRUCTURE AND SELF IN STUDENTS’ ACADEMIC EXPERIENCES

Education is recognized as the most important route to social mobility. Quality education is associated with promises of occupational success and economic prosperity and a better life. It is this hope for a better future that guides innumerable parents from lower social class backgrounds in India to try and secure a place for their children in private schools- institutions that hold the promise of good quality. This study (consisting of two parts) was designed to explore the impact of social structure on the experience of exclusion at school, self-esteem, academic effi cacy, and engagement of students using self-report measures. For the purpose of the study, the social structural variables of class and caste (caste is an integral component of Indian society’s social structure) were examined. For the study with social class, the sample included EWS students (n=) and non-EWS students (n=). For the study with caste, the sample included students from the reserved category (including students from scheduled caste, scheduled tribe and other backward classes; n=) and general category students (n=). School exclusion and self-esteem emerged as signifi cant processes that mediate the relation between social structural variables of class and caste and student outcomes.

The Relationship between Parental Emotional Warmth and Rural Adolescents’ Hope: The Sequential Mediating Role of Perceived Social Support and Prosocial Behavior

Parental emotional warmth plays a prominent role in adolescents’ hope, but few studies have examined the underlying mechanism between parental emotional warmth and hope in rural adolescents, or have compared the gender differences in the mediation models between parental emotional warmth and hope. Based on the developmental contextualism theory and Bernardo’s hope theory, this study examined the sequential mediating effect of perceived social support and prosocial behavior between parental emotional warmth and hope and test the gender differences between them. Seventeen hundred and one rural adolescents were surveyed with the Short-Form Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran (s-EMBU-C), Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), Prosocial Tendency Measure (PTM), and Hope Scale (HS). Correlation analysis showed that there were positive correlations between parental emotional warmth, perceived social support, prosocial behavior, and hope. The structural equation model showed that parental emotional warmth indirectly affected hope through the separate and sequential mediation of perceived social support and prosocial behavior. Multi-group analysis showed that boys were significantly higher than girls in the relationship between perceived social support and prosocial behavior. The results emphasized that improving parental emotional warmth, perceived social support, and encouraging rural adolescents’ prosocial behavior could effectively promote their hope.

"Bringing new life in": Hope as a know-how of not knowing.

We offer a theoretical and empirical exploration of parental or guardian hope through an enactive, ecological, and reflective lifeworld research framework. We examine hoping as a practice, or know-how, by exploring the shape of interviewees' lives as they prepare for lives to come. We pursue hoping as a necessarily shared practice-a social agency-rather than an individual emotion. One main argument is that hoping operates as a kind of languaging. An enactive-ecological approach shifts scholarly conversations around hope, in part by including voices of non-scholars and considering lifeworld factors like class privilege. We aim to identify particular impediments to or facilitators of hope, which may be thought of as classes of restrictive and generative thought-shapers, respectively. Results from our qualitative study indicate that uncertainty is deeply salient to hoping, not only because hope as a concept entails epistemic limits, but more vitally because not knowing, when done skillfully and when supported through education and some degree of socio-economic security, leaves room for others to reframe utterances, and so for the family or community to resist linguistic enclosure.

New medicine for neuromuscular diseases: An evolving paradox for patient and family hopes and expectations.

Recent developments in novel therapies for neuromuscular diseases offer parents new perspectives on their affected children's future. This article examines how the emergence of new therapies impacts the lives of parents of children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy or spinal muscular atrophy type 2, two genetic neuromuscular disorders characterized by progressive muscle degeneration. Aiming for a first-person perspective, fieldwork was conducted utilizing participant observation, semistructured interviews, and several internet sources. Six families with a total of 12 persons, all living in Denmark, were included in the interviews. Two types of parents were identified who were at opposite ends in dealing with the new therapies-the cure optimists and the cure pragmatists. Different hopes resulted in different narratives for their children's futures. The article raises questions about how and when children with chronic diseases should be involved in their parent's hopes for a cure and highlights the dilemmas facing health professionals working in the field of children with chronic diseases for which the prospects of a cure are improving. We conclude that health professionals must find a way to carefully balance guidance and information about experimental medicines, including the fact that experimental medicine sometimes fails, does not work as well as hoped for, or does not become available, with sustaining parental hopes for their children's future.

Evaluation and Analysis of English Teaching Ability Based on Nonlinear Random Matrix Model

With the sustained, rapid, and steady development of China’s economy, the development of higher education is also faster and faster. With economic development and social progress, the demand for talents is also growing. Colleges and universities are the cradle of cultivating excellent talents and undertake the important task of cultivating reserve forces for the country. As an engineer of human soul, English teachers shoulder the responsibility of cultivating excellent talents and the hope of countless parents. For a long time, there have been many problems in the evaluation of College English teachers in China. For example, the assessment objective is too simple, only related to salary promotion and professional title evaluation. In terms of the content of evaluation, they often only pay attention to the quantity and level of scientific research results, ignoring the evaluation of potential, attitude, and other aspects, especially the social responsibility of teachers. Based on the theory of nonlinear random matrix and the theory of competence, this study establishes the quality evaluation model of university teachers in China by combining qualitative and quantitative methods. On this basis, it plays an important role in the selection, training, promotion, and further development of university teachers in China. First of all, according to a large number of domestic and foreign literature on competency, this study summarizes the competency theory and competency model. Using the hypothetical model, a questionnaire was designed and distributed to build a competency model of university teachers from four aspects: professional knowledge, related skills, work attitude, and personality motivation. Finally, the weight of each index in the model is calculated. This study not only constructs the competency evaluation model but also uses the principal component analysis method to calculate it in detail, which provides a good quantitative basis for the selection and performance evaluation of college teachers, so as to prevent the situation beyond its control. It paves an endless bright road for further stable and healthy development. Therefore, the overall research results of this study have greater practical application value and rich connotation.
