Understanding the factors that place an individual at greater risk
of developing psychopathology has important implications for both
treatment and prevention of psychological disorders. Of critical
relevance in this regard is the exploration of the potential
influence of the family. Parenting and the family environment are
considered to significantly contribute to a child's early
development and adjustment. It follows then that parental behavior
may also be of importance in the development, maintenance and or
the prevention of psychopathology. Over the past 50 years there has
been a considerable amount of research as well as controversy
surrounding the link between parenting and psychopathology. The
purpose of this book is to provide researchers and clinicians with
state-of-the art research findings, presented by experts in the
field, on the role of the family in the development and maintenance
of psychopathology.
This edited book is divided into 3 sections. The first addresses
broader issues of theory and methodology and the second provides
separate chapters relating to the role of the family in the
development and maintenance of specific psychopathologies. A final
section discusses the involvement of the family in treatment and
prevention.
