Excited to share my brief commentary published in @APA Families, Systems, & Health. In this piece, I seek to discourage using terms like "stepchild" as a pejorative. @ncfr

Really thrilled to have our first issue of @FamTransitions out in the world. In our opening editorial and issue we highlight our Critical Dialogues format. Expect ongoing contributions of new and exciting work from this outlet!

Finally, our first issue ends with an empirical report examining the construct validity of a Spanish translation of the Baker Strategies Questionnaire (BSQ) which seeks to retrospectively assess parental alienation and parental alienation behaviors.

Issue 1 of @FamTransitions also features 4 comments and 1 rejoinder by prominent family law and divorce scholars. Working to bring clarity to points of agreement, disagreement, and where further investigation on Parent-Child Contact Problems is needed.

The first issue of @FamTransitions is almost here! We are putting the finishing touches on the first issue, and are really excited for the work we'll be featuring as we kick off with our new name. Here is a quick sneak peak of the inaugural editorial.
Bakhtiari & Plunkett (2023) use dominance analyses and relative weight analyses to examine factors associated with men and women's mental health and conflict post-divorce. (A neat shinyapp here if you're interested in your own: rwa-web.shinyapps.io/multipl… )

Super cool visualization of the very different configurations of living arrangements of single men and women in midlife.
Key takeaway: Majority of single women are living with kids; majority of single men are not.
