Human sexuality researchers often find themselves faced with
questions that entail conceptual, methodological, or ethical issues
for which their professional training or prior experience may not
have prepared them. The goal of this handbook is to provide that
guidance to students and professionals interested in the empirical
study of human sexuality from behavioral and social scientific
perspectives. It provides practical and concrete advice about
conducting human sexuality research and addresses issues inherent
to both general social scientific and specific human sexuality
research.
Have you been especially troubled by your relationship with a parent? Have you struggled to understand the difficulties in that relationship? Despite your efforts, has this relationship failed to improve? It may be that your parent has a "personality disorder." Personality disorders are long-standing in nature, undergo little change, and end up hurting others, particularly family members. This damage may occur through a self-centered approach to life as well poor decisions (such as addictions, problematic spending, and selecting poor relationship partners). People with personality disorders also harm through their inability to be honest (factually and emotionally), as well as their emotional or physical overreactions to situations. In this book, you'll begin to understand the essential nature of a personality disorder and how it applies to your parent. As examples, the authors describe two in-depth cases. Each case illustrates one of two personality disorder styles that appear to be relatively common: the intrusive personality style and the distant-hostile personality style. The authors offer a number of practical tactics for transcending, both psychologically and spiritually, the problematic past of having been raised by a parent with a personality disorder. This book is designed to offer supportive guidance in the murky terrain of toxic parent-child relationships. It's a must-read for everyone trying to understand and resolve difficulties in their relationships with their parents.
Should I go to graduate school? How do I choose where to apply? Are
my grades and accomplishments good enough to get in? Who should I
ask to write recommendation letters for me, and how should I
approach these people? How do I write my "personal statement?" When
will I hear my fate, and how should I make my final decision? These
are just a few of the many questions to which this well-researched,
thorough, and extremely user-friendly book offers answers. Students
who are contemplating graduate training in psychology, counseling,
and related fields are often apprehensive and confused about
applying to graduate school, but this book takes the guesswork and
anxiety out of the process.
