The state has a responsibility to protect its citizens against criminal violence. It
performs this function largely through its police force. An officer who unjustifiably
failed to prevent a violent crime would be guilty of a serious dereliction of duty, ...

Iron

Iron is an intense psychological drama in which a mother and daughter try to break through the barriers of time, memory and punishment which separate them. But between them lies the fact of murder. A murder Josie cannot remember and Fay has always tried to forget. Uncovering the memories they share is more dangerous than either of them can imagine.

Changes in Perception of Family Environment and Self-reported Symptom Status in Adolescents Whose Parents Participate in an Adlerian Parent-training Intervention

The purpose of this study was to determine if adolescents whose parents participate in an Adlerian-based parenting education program, known as Systematic Training for Effective Parenting-Teen (STEP-Teen), perceive more similarly to their parents the family environment in general, more democratic family values within the family environment, and report a decline in problematic behaviors and troubling emotions after the STEP intervention. As there is a vital need for research that investigates multiple perspectives following parent education, this study has focused in part on the self-reports of the adolescents whose parents participate in STEP. A sample of parents (n=20) and their adolescents (n=20) were individually assessed prior to and following the parents' participation in the STEP-Teen intervention. The intervention took place at a middle school in Central New York State and was divided into three three-hour sessions. The adolescent was administered the Family Environment Scale-Third Edition (Form R) by Moos and Moos, the Adolescent Version of the Adlerian Family Values Measure, and the Youth Self Report (Achenbach, 2001). The parents completed the Family Environment Scale (Third Edition, Form R), the Parent Version of the Adlerian Family Values Measure, and the Adlerian Parent Education Knowledge Measure. The results indicated that there were no significant decreases in self-reported internalizing symptomatology, externalizing symptomatology, nor did parent-adolescent perception incongruence on the Adlerian Family Values Measure significantly decrease. However, there was a significant increase in parents' knowledge about the STEP-Teen concepts presented in the program as well as a decrease in the parent-adolescent perception incongruence on the Family Environment Scale. Thus, this study indicates that the parents learning new parenting skills and parent and adolescent's perceptions of the family environment became less discrepant following parents' participation in the STEP program. Treatment implications and suggestions for future research are also discussed.

Instead, STEP encourages parents to employ the use of natural and logical
consequences as a primary means to discipline. Reward and punishment are
extrinsically motivating to children as opposed to the intrinsically motivating
natural and ...

An Analysis of Environmental Parental Factors in Children with Nonverbal Learning Disorder

The dramatic rise in cases of children with learning disorders has caused interest in the field and many researchers are trying to better understand the recently established Nonverbal Learning Disorder. This has sparked an interest in researchers who are currently focusing on locating a cause, a universal diagnostic method, and treatment options for the disorder. The current study concentrated on establishing a link between environmental factors and the occurrence of NVLD in children. Archival data was used to determine whether the mother and father's education level and occupation correlated with the occurrence of the disorder in the child. The study used data from 172 children who were tested for Nonverbal Learning Disorder. The subjects ranged in age from 5 years old to 24 years old. There were 78 girls and 94 boys that participated in the testing. The children's verbal intelligence test scores and performance intelligence test scores were compared to their parents' occupation and education levels to determine if the results would be statistically significant. Statistical analyses revealed that the mother and father's occupation and education level were not significant in the outcome of the child's nonverbal learning abilities. This study did not find the correlation between environmental factors and whether or not a child is more likely to develop Nonverbal Learning Disorder due to those factors. It is suggested that future research examine a larger number of participants and collect all the data from the mother and father to determine if there is a significance between environmental factors and the occurrence of Nonverbal Learning Disorder in children.

New information suggests the deficits are not as great in skills such as spelling,
solving verbal word problems, social interactions, and reading comprehension.
This could be from a lack of standardized testing. Since there is no specific test or
