First Time

The age of a woman when giving birth to her first child needs to be a concern because it is related to the safety of the mother and baby. A woman being too young or too old increases the risk of death for both the mother and baby. Every woman giving birth for the first time is likely to experience psychological disorders such as anxiety and excessive fear during labor, and even postpartum depression. Given the importance and possible extent of the consequences of women giving birth for the first time, this study intended to assess the factors that influence the age at first birth, especially amongst women of childbearing age in East Java. These factors include the age at first marriage, education, and region. The method used was the extended Cox regression model. The analysis shows that the age at first marriage and education are factors that significantly influence the age at first birth. The more mature the age at first marriage, the more mature the age at first birth. Likewise, the higher the educational status, the higher the potential for giving birth to a first child over the age of 23, especially amongst women who graduated high school and university.

Dysfunctional Relationships

This study investigated the association between dysfunctional relationship beliefs and marital relationships of Turkish nonclinical married individuals. The Interpersonal Cognitive Distortions Scale (Hamamci & Büyüközturk, 2004), Dyadic Adjustment Scale (Spanier, 1976), and Marriage Life Scale (Tezer, 1986), which measure marital satisfaction, were administered to the sample of 190 married females and males. Analysis revealed that married individuals with low dyadic adjustment endorsed significantly more dysfunctional relationship beliefs than did those with high dyadic adjustment. It was found that dysfunctional relationship beliefs, including especially beliefs concerning being very close to others in their relationships causing negative consequences, have negative and moderate level correlation with the marital adjustment of males, and negative and very low level correlations were found between marital satisfaction and dysfunctional relationships beliefs. But mindreading beliefs were positively associated with the marital satisfaction of females. Although there were no significant age or gender differences in dysfunctional relationship beliefs, significant differences were observed in dysfunctional relationship beliefs in terms of the education level of married individuals.

The Kansas Marital Satisfaction Scale was administered by survey to 51 wives between the ages of 32 and 71 yr. Further support for the internal consistency reliability of the scale (α = 0.92) was obtained, and patterns of differences between the item means paralleled previous research. Evidence was found for the concurrent validity of the scale, which correlated significantly with six of seven items from the satisfaction subscale of Spanier's Dyadic Adjustment Scale.

Controlled Clinical Trial

Objective: Psychological and environmental factors, such as difficulties in emotion regulation (ER) and marital problems, are involved in relapse and craving in patients with substance use disorders. Emotional regulation therapy can help maintain opioid withdrawal and improve marital relations by focusing on appropriate adjustment of emotions. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of emotion regulation therapy on craving, emotion regulation, and marital satisfaction in patients with substance use disorders. Method: This randomized controlled clinical trial with pretest and posttest was performed in 2014 in Noor hospital, Isfahan, Iran. In this study, 30 patients who were admitted to the addiction center of Noor hospital were selected using purposive sampling. They were assigned into two groups randomly: (1) 15 patients in treatment as usual (TAU group); (2) 15 patients in emotion regulation group therapy (ERGT). The ERGT group received eight weekly treatments, based on Gross model, to learn recognize emotions and their effects, overcome obstacles of positive emotions, accept emotions, identify regulatory maladaptive and adaptive strategies of emotions, and modify behavior. Before and after the emotion regulation sessions in experimental group, Craving Beliefs Questionnaire (CBQ), Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, and Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS) were administered in both groups. Results: The results of analysis of variance indicated that mean scores of marital adjustment increased in ERGT (93.66 ± 15.81) compared to TAU group (55.26 ± 20.98) and the mean scores of craving were decreased in ERGT compared to TAU group (56.66 ± 18.39 and 105.2 ± 34.5, respectively). Also, most aspects of ER improved in ERGT compared to TAU group, and the total score of ER was increased in ERGT significantly (96.69 ± 5.38 in ERGT versus 73.70 ± 5.05 in TAU). Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, emotion regulation group therapy has a significant effect on reducing Craving and improving marital adjustment and emotion regulation in Patients with Substance Use Disorders. So, it can use as a useful psychotherapy in addiction treatment centers.

The publication introduces materials on M.E. Saltykov-Shchedrin’s descendants from S.A. Makashin’s archive. By now there has been available basic biographical information about Konstantin Mikhailovich, the writer’s son and the author of the famous memoir Intimate Shchedrin (1923) negatively assessed by Soviet literary critics. Even less information survived on the writer’s daughter Elizaveta Mikhailovna, Baroness Disterlaut in her first marriage, Countess Da Passano in her second marriage. She hadn’t left memoirs about her father and therefore hasn’t become an object of interest for scholars. Materials from Makashin’s archive specify some biographical data and stir up an interest in the personality of the writer’s daughter. However it is the materials about her children, Tamara Nikolaevna Disterlaut (Gladyrevskaia in her second marriage), and Andrei Evgenievich Da Passano, that are of special interest. A part of the unpublished work by E. Gard, a journalist, appears in print for the first time: in 1934 he came to Kraskovo (Moscow region) and met the writer’s grand-daughter. Further information about T.N. Gladyrevskaia is given in the memoir written by her daughter Elena Aleksandrovna Gladyrevskaia and in the online materials about the victims of Stalinist repressions. Saltykov’s granddaughter was arrested in 1938; later her children were told that their mother had died in 1945; in fact, she was executed at Butovo Shooting Range soon after her arrest. The writer’s grandson left Russia together with his parents in 1917. His letter to G.V. Plekhanov’s daughter is published: he writes about his parents and himself. Information about A. Da Passano is specified thanks to the data available online (websites devoted to Italian comics creators and American esotery scientists). He lived a long life rich in the events, and died in the USA in 1933.

Three Factor

This study examines the psychometric properties of the French-version of the Partnership Questionnaire (PFB) and compares this questionnaire with the Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS). 225 couples, married or living together for at least 3 years, participated in this research and each partner responded individually to the PFB or to both scales. The results indicate that the structure of the PFB replicates the theoretical three-factor structure for both women and men. Moreover, the cross-language replicability of the structure was high. The correlation between the DAS and the PFB was also high (r = .79) and the three canonical correlation variates explained 58% or more of the variance of both scales. The PFB is sensitive to couple characteristics and the agreement within couples is high. The French-version of the PFB has good psychometric properties and seems well suited for measuring marital satisfaction for clinical and research purposes.
