Printed on acid-free paper This Springer imprint is published by Springer Nature The registered company is Springer Science+Business Media LLC New York Pref ace Children are the most vulnerable members of society and are dependent on adults for their well-being. Communities, schools, parents, government, and various insti- tutions strive to protect our children and provide them the environment and tools necessary to grow into healthy adults. The well-being of children determines the health of the next generation. Indeed, many of society’s most severe health and social problems are caused by issues that develop during childhood and adoles- cence. As Healthy People 2020 points out, professionals in policy, research, and clinical practice fi elds are cognizant that childhood provides the physical, cognitive, and social-emotional foundation for lifelong, health, learning, and well-being, and thus health promotion strategies need to be well researched, executed, and assessed. Even from an economic perspective, investment in childhood health promotion pays off greatly. Health promotion for children and adolescents involves a range of academic dis- ciplines and fi elds in order to be successful. And thus, this book is for readers of all kinds—professionals and students in public health, public policy, education, social work, medicine and health care, and of course parents and children themselves. This book aims to bridge the gap between what is discussed in theory and academia and what health promotion programs are working on the ground. This book presents the latest fi ndings on the most effective methods for health promotion for children. Theory driven, the chapters highlight a multifaceted approach to health promotion, incorporating community, families, schools, and policies. Rather than using the same framework and applying it to different prob- lems, each author presented in the book relies on different prevention and health behavior models in order to best understand the issue at hand and address the prob- lem from a multitude of perspectives. Throughout the book, various solutions will be given using evidence-based principles to plan, implement, and evaluate commu- nity health programs that target health problems of children and adolescents. While this book was written with a US focus, the theories and approaches that are addressed are universal in nature and can easily be translated to many countries and settings. v vi Preface Health Promotion for Children and Adolescents begins with an overview of health promotion theories and models in order to orient and familiarize the reader with the different theoretical approaches or tools available in conducting health promotion. The book then has two chapters that discuss the role that socioeconom- ics, poverty, and culture play in providing the context in which health promotion for children occurs. Part III of the book will focus on psychological wellness in chil- dren and adolescents, with Chap. 5 describing what stress and resiliency look like in children, Chap. 6 exploring recent developments in child mental health, Chap. 7 discussing youth suicide, and Chap. 8 highlighting health-related concerns among children with ADD/ADHD. Social and behavioral wellness will be the focus of Part IV. Sexual behavior, sexuality, and gender issues will be discussed in Chaps. 9 and 10 , highlighting the latest research fi ndings and debates. Chapter 11 will focus on the latest research fi ndings in the fi eld of alcohol, tobacco, and drug use prevention for children, while violence and aggressive behavior are covered in Chap. 12 . While childhood obesity is all over news headiness these days (Chap. 13 ), it is unhealthy eating habits that are the root cause of both obesity and eating disorders (Chap. 14 ), which Chap. 15 will thoroughly address. As number of children with chronic ill- nesses has been increasing, Chap. 16 will cover how dealing with these illnesses is of particular challenge among children. The need for confi dentiality in health ser- vices for children will appropriately follow in Chap. 17 , with a look at the ethical and legal issues involved in having children be more autonomous in their health care. Chapter 18 will focus on child abuse and the foster care system. This book was a project that could not have been completed without the hard work of so many people. Each contributing author put in time, effort, and hard work for which I am so grateful given everyone’s very busy schedule and competing interests. The authors that took part in this book are some of the top scholars in the fi eld of health promotion for children and adolescents and have been instrumental in conducting both research and programmatic efforts in their area of interest. I am appreciative of their commitment to this book and the high-quality chapters that are presented within. I would also like to thank my editors at Springer, Janet Kim and Khristine Queja, for their guidance, patience, and support throughout each step of this project. A special thanks to my family, especially my husband, Ittai, and my children, Benjamin and Gabriel, for their endless support and love. New York, NY, USA Maya Rom Korin, Ph.D., M.S.

Domestic adoption is big business. 1 "Baby 2 selling" has long been vilified and remains unlawful. However, a close examination of the cash that changes hands in the garden-variety domestic adoption would make it difficult for most people to tell the difference. 3 Prospective adoptive parents pay agencies and lawyers exceptional sums to identify and locate birth parents that are willing to relinquish their parental 4 rights.

  • The “Two Cultures” in Clinical Psychology: Constructing Disciplinary Divides in the Management of Mental Retardation

    The “Two Cultures” in Clinical Psychology: Constructing Disciplinary Divides in the Management of Mental Retardation

    The “Two Cultures” in Clinical Psychology: Constructing Disciplinary Divides in the Management of Mental Retardation Andrew J. Hogan Creighton University Isis, Vol. 109, no. 4 (2018): 695-719 In a 1984 article, psychologist Gregory Kimble lamented what he saw as the two distinct cultures of his discipline. Writing in American Psychologist, a prominent professional journal, he noted, “In psychology, these conflicting cultures [scientific and humanistic] exist within a single field, and those who hold opposing values are currently engaged in a bitter family feud.” 1 In making his argument, Kimble explicitly drew upon British scientist and novelist C.P. Snow’s 1959 lecture The Two Cultures, in which Snow expressed concern about a lack of intellectual engagement between scientists and humanists, and about the dominant position of the humanities in British education and culture. Kimble used Snow’s critique to help make sense of what he perceived to be a similar polarizing divide between “scientific” and “humanistic” psychologists. 2 As Kimble described it, humanistic psychologists differed form their scientific colleagues in placing their ambitions to enact certain social policies and to promote particular social values- based ideologies ahead of the need for the scientific validation of these approaches. Kimble demonstrated his purported two cultures divide in psychology using survey data he collected from 164 American Psychological Association (APA) members. Each was part of either APA Division 3 (Experimental Psychology) or one of three other Divisions, which represented special interest groups within the psychology field. His results, illustrated on a spectrum from scientific to humanistic orientation, showed a purported divide between experimental psychologists on the scientific side, and their humanistic colleagues in the other three Divisions (See Figures 1,2).

  • Foster Parenting As Work

    Foster Parenting As Work

    Foster Parenting as Work Hannah Romant ABSTRACT: Foster parents play two vital roles in the modem child welfare system. A foster parent is a caregiver for the child as well as a member of a team working to provide appropriate services and support to the child and to the family of origin. Despite the importance of each of these roles, however, and unlike other members of the team, foster parents are not compensated for their labor. Treatment of foster parents as volunteers is rooted in both legal theory and doctrine. As a theoretical matter, foster parents are equated with biological parents, whose labor is uncompensated. Just as caregiving for family members is assumed to be given without expectation of any reward beyond familial affection, foster parents' caregiving is treated as a gift, and its value as a public good goes unrecognized. As a doctrinal matter, the child welfare system distinguishes foster parents, who are lay people, from professionals such as social workers, therapists, lawyers, and judges. The professional members of the team are assumed, by virtue of their training and education, to possess expertise for which they should be compensated, but foster parents are assumed to lack expertise. As a result, foster parents' labor is devalued and their expertise goes unrecognized, making it a challenge to recruit and retain committed foster parents and to ensure that children receive the skilled care they deserve. Neither family law scholars examining the child welfare system nor feminist legal theorists contemplating the value of care work have addressed this problem. This Article demonstrates that foster parenting should be treated as work and compensated as such.

BRINIG∗ In April of 2010, the mass media was full of accounts of a seven-year-old Russian boy, Artyom (whose adoptive name is Justin), who had been returned to Moscow on his own by an American adoptive mother who felt unable to care for him. The mother, Torry Hansen, alleged that her family was afraid of the boy, specifically because he had threatened to burn their house down around them and had drawn pictures of it in flames.1 She paid for someone to meet the child once he landed and had her mother deliver him to the gate before his ten hour flight.2 While there could be many reasons for disquiet on hearing the story – not the least of which was putting that young a child onto a lengthy international flight unescorted – this Conference suggests that we pay attention to our feelings that Ms. Hansen at least attempted to do something that parents cannot: to give back a child.3 ∗ Fritz Duda Family Professor of Law, Notre Dame Law School. 1 See, e.g., Clifford J.

Most broadly, the papers and critiques are concerned with how psychology could beused to improve: (1) socialization;(2) curriculum development; (3) teaching; and (4) guidance. Some attention is also given to the total functioning of schools, especially organizational change and the community base. Papers deal variously with:(1) an interactional view of learning wnich weds Dewey and Piaget; (2) the new view intelligence as a gradually accumulated fund of skills i, -tion with social experience;(3) the role of school psycholoy'qf 4S teacher advisers; (4) current brain research and its relaLlonship to the problems of education; and (5) the lack of a productive theory of change process. A dissatisfaction with the current schooling process pervades the proceedings. Alternatives and innovations are suggested.
