Abstract:PREFERRED CUSTODY MODEL ACCORDING DIFFERENT GENERATIONSMany Spanish families face family break-ups every year. When a couple who are divorcing have children, it is necessary to decide on custodial arrangements. Usually, custody is awarded to mothers, but joint custody is beginning to be used among Spanish society. The change towards this kind of custody is rather slow. Thus, the main objective of this study has been to analyze, in an exploratory way, which type of custody the participants from three different generations consider most appropriate. Moreover, participants’ believes about the similarities and differences between mothers’ and fathers’ capabilities for raising their children were explored. A sample of 144 subjects (adolescents, young people and adults), from both sexes, participated in the study, answering a semi-structured interview. Results show an increasing acceptance of co-parenting, but it is dependent on certain circumstances such as the capacity and desire for involvement that each parent shows towards their children. These data lead to an important reflection on the need for higher social changes in the distribution of parental roles.Key-words: sole custody, joint custody, different generations, parental roles.Resumen:Numerosas familias españolas se enfrentan cada año a la ruptura familiar. Cuando la pareja que se separa tiene hijos, es necesario decidir el tipo de custodia. Normalmente, la custodia suele recaer en las madres, pero la custodia compartida empieza a ser una realidad en la sociedad española. El cambio hacia este tipo de custodia es lento. Por ello, el objetivo de este estudio ha sido analizar, de forma exploratoria, qué tipo de custodia consideran más adecuada los participantes de tres generaciones. Además, se exploraron las creencias de los participantes acerca de las similitudes y diferencias entre las capacidades de padres y madres para cuidar y educar a los hijos. En el estudio participó una muestra de 144 sujetos (adolescentes, jóvenes y adultos), de ambos sexos, a quienes se les realizó una entrevista semiestructurada. Los resultados muestran un incremento en la aceptación de la custodia compartida, pero condicionada a determinadas circunstancias, entre las que destaca la capacidad y deseos de implicación que muestre cada progenitor con sus hijos. Estos datos conllevan una importante reflexión sobre la necesidad de mayores cambios sociales en el reparto de roles parentales.Palabras clave: custodia exclusiva, custodia compartida, diferentes generaciones, roles parentales

The social changes experienced in many countries have prolonged the transition to adult life for young people. That being said, those who leave child care cannot afford this privilege, in that they do not benefit from the same support and resources, having to confront an accelerated transition which exposes them to increased risk of negative outcomes and social exclusion. Moreover, this transition might be even riskier for unaccompanied migrant care leavers, who are four times as vulnerable, given their status as young people in care, as adolescents, as migrants and being unaccompanied. This paper seeks to explore the profiles, needs, and experiences of unaccompanied young migrants in comparison with other care leavers. Data were collected by means of a semi-structured interview to explore their pre-care, in-care, and aftercare experiences. A highly specific profile of unaccompanied young migrants has been revealed that differs from the other care leavers in terms of worse educational, occupational, and economic outcomes, limited support networks, and more obstacles to accessing aftercare supports. Conversely, they also exhibited some strengths, such as having less pre-care, in care, and aftercare traumatic experiences, less psychological distress and fewer risky behaviors compared with other care leavers.

Abstract The content of this scientific study is based on the qualitative analysis of selected answers of parents, in the framework of semi-structured interview. The qualitative research is apart of bigger research work P-155/A, dealing with mental health of children in family and school settings. The main goal is to learn and analyse the empirical experience and views of participants, related to joint custody and shared care. The research sample consisted of randomly selected 9 participants who visited Výskumný ústav detskej psychológie apatopsychológie on behalf of some problems regarding custody after divorce/separation. In this contribution the parents´ attitudes towards mutual communication of former partners/parents, functioning of joint custody and shared care and some views related to some limits in this form of shared parenting have been analysed. Some valuable remarks with regard to the need of multi-professional team work, addressed to parents within the process of their divorce/separation proved to be very useful. Parents proposed they would extremely welcome some more help from mental health professionals and their crises intervention actions. On behalf of discussion we notice that the juridical institute of joint custody and shared care is a very important tool, however, some legislative changes of this law should be still done. Concluding the study, we state that in spite of some methodological problems – like a limited number of research participants, we believe that the results can serve as a basis for the next deeper research, bringing more proposals for improvement in this field.

Although fathers are increasingly involved in childrearing, less is known about how parental stress is perceived among mothers and fathers separately. The present study investigated the construct validity of the PSS in a community-based sample of Norwegian father–mother dyads with a child aged 4. A total of 1030 mothers and fathers ( N = 515 dyads) responded to the PSS, which is a much used instrument that assesses stress related to childrearing across 18 items. Construct validity was investigated using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses and the multitrait–multimethod approach (MTMM). The results revealed that six of the items showed extensive ceiling-effects for both parents, and were excluded from further analysis. Dimensionality was examined for the remaining 12 PSS items. The results supported a two-factor solution for both fathers and mothers, reflecting parental stressors (9 items) and lack of rewards (3 items). The MTMM approach indicated convergent and discriminant validity across traits (Parental stressors and Lack of rewards) and methods (father vs mother rating). We also explored the network of PSS items for mothers and fathers, and found both similarities and differences. Overall, the results of the factor analyses have implications for the use of the PSS. The networks of PSS suggest that some items may be especially important when addressing parental stress with mothers and fathers.

Abstract The purpose of this study is to evaluate children in Bratislava, Slovakia. The survey sample consisted of 276 children aged 9 -12 who were tested using the Children’s Eating Attitude Test as a diagnostic tool for testing young people, who show a proclivity towards having eating issues, a possibility of anorexia, or a possible problem with bulimic tendencies. The study analyses the components of the test and the scores of children to whom it was administered, and come to conclusions as to its usefulness in diagnosing eating issues in children between grades 4 and 6. It also examines the comparisons between the children in Slovakia and the children in Australian studies in order to see if the scores correlate and what similarities and differences are present between the two groups studied.

This paper explores the cuss words used by the Kankanaey young people of The Philippines, examines the reasons they use them and if these cuss words reflect their identity. It employs the qualitative approach and uses a semi-structured interview. Most of the cuss words are terms that range from taboo topics such as the genitals, to inoffensive terms such as body parts, to incapacity, and to words borrowed and modified from English, as well as those invented. These cuss words are usually used to express emotions that range from light to strong ones such as anger, disappointment, fright, or surprise.

HIV-related stressors affecting young adults with perinatally acquired HIV (PHIV+) and their siblings include parental and sibling ill-health and death, own ill-health, HIV disclosure, and stigma. Young people with PHIV+ typically share their HIV status with family members. We explored sibling relationships in young people with PHIV+. Ten participants (six females, 17–23 years old) with PHIV+ took part in a semi-structured interview, analysed using Grounded Theory. The data were condensed into three theoretical codes: (1) HIV disclosure in sibling relationship; (2) Patterns of communication about HIV between siblings; and (3) Patterns of coping and support in sibling relationship.
