The Impact

The paper examines the impact of the self-isolation regime during the COVID-19 pandemic on the emer-gence and escalation of marital conflicts. This issue is relevant not only for Russia, but also for the whole world due to the increasing divorce rates and cases of domestic violence. The author analyzes the forms of manifestation of marital conflicts, which are most likely to be provoked by the conditions of the pandemic and the self-isolation regime. The main theoretical approaches to identifying the caus-es of marital conflicts and forms of marital violence are highlighted. It is concluded that studying the impact of the consequences of the pandemic on the emergence and escalation of conflicts between spouses could be helpful to develop ways to reduce tension during the period of self-isolation and strengthen the institution of the family in modern Russia.

This paper attempts to illuminate some of the ethical dilemmas of a clinician/researcher interviewing women about a sensitive topic- their experience of having witnessed domestic violence in the family they grew up in, as part of a grounded theory study. Vignettes are presented to illustrate the self-reflexive process of the researcher and how she understood the effects of the interview process on her and the participants. The authors argue that doing in-depth qualitative research interviewing is an intervention in the life of the participants, especially, but not only, when the researchers are clinically-trained. However, this clinical training may also be an important resource from which to draw from, to act ethically and understand some of the complexity of the interaction between researcher and participants.

The Family

Although police officers are often the first group outside the family to intervene in domestic violence situations, little is known about how individual and family characteristics influence the male police officer’s responsiveness in these situations. This study addressed this issue with data from 72 midwestern male police officers. The officers were asked to respond to vignette scenarios in which husbands had assaulted their wives. Three variables previously related to spouse abuse (sex role egalitarianism, approval of marital violence, and marital stress) and the officer’s use of violence in his own marriage were entered into a path model to predict three different possible police responses (i.e., mediating response, arrest, and antivictim response). The model predicted significant variance in the officer’s hostile response to victims of domestic violence but not to his likelihood of arresting abusers or mediating between the abusive couple. Implications for understanding domestic violence and police response are presented.

Domestic Violence And Abuse

The chapter examines how, historically, domestic violence was considered to be a private matter that was none of the law's concern. While domestic violence is now recognised to be an important social issue, the historical acceptance of such abuse provides a context to understand some of the difficulties that victims face today. A key focus of the chapter is the family law remedies available for domestic abuse victims. Three key remedies are examined: non-molestation orders, occupation orders, and forced marriage protection orders. The chapter also explores some of the wider factors pertaining to the family justice system's response to domestic violence. It is important to recognise the impact of the changes to legal aid as introduced by the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012, and the extent to which victims of domestic violence may feel threatened during family law proceedings, particularly in cases involving the arrangements for children after separation.

The Impact

The authors propose a semi-structured interview to identify the effects of domestic violence in children. The interview includes a list of questions aimed at identifying possible cases of domestic violence, signs of emotional problems, impaired behavior and attention, preneurotic, autonomic and somatic disorders, typical situations of their occurrence in children, as well as family and interpersonal contexts. Observing behaviors and non-verbal manifestations during the interview that accompanies the respondent's answers allow us to identify not only the clear signs of the problem, but also to recognize the hidden, non-verbal manifestations to better understand the nature of the problem in children. Quantitative and qualitative analysis confirmed the diagnostic value of the proposed interview. The group of children affected by domestic violence found a much higher prevalence of emotional problems (depression, anxiety, emotional lability, heightened emotional sensitivity), behavioral disorders (aggressiveness, passivity, excessive obedience), sleep disorders and fears, vegetodistonic and somatic problems. Children were significantly more likely to show signs of psycho-physiological arousal (tears, tremors, agitation, paleness of palms, sudden paleness of redness, etc.) during the interview, indicating high emotional tension and sensitivity to topics related to the situation in the family in general and domestic violence in particular. Revealing the effects of psychological trauma through interviewing is an important task and competence of psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers during medical and psychological examination, as well as the psychosocial support of children affected by domestic violence.

The Impact

The research main goal is to study patients diagnosed with Paranoid Schizophrenia, more specifically the impact of projective distortion in the self description, and the self-concept disturbance, personality traits and family dynamics, also evaluating the influence of mental representations from both the patient and parents.It is essential to describe the semiology and phenomenology of Paranoid Schizophrenia in adults, the mental representations of these patients and their family psychodynamics. Special attention will be given to self-concept and the representation of family interactions, which several investigations mention as very relevant in Schizophrenia.Projective Distortion is considered to be the result of the interplay of defence mechanisms inside family relationships, conceptualized as an interactional and interpersonal phenomenon.Although there are some studies on the disturbances of self-concept in patients with Paranoid Schizophrenia, it has not been usual to simultaneously analyse both the Projective Distortion operating in the family and its impact on the patient mental representations, something that can be very relevant to therapeutic interventions.There will be presented 5 case studies, using interviews with patients diagnosed with Paranoid Schizophrenia and their parents. These interviews will be conducted and analyzed using the Grounded Theory Method. That analysis aims to isolate significant conceptual categories, and to build a theoretical model which allows the understanding of Projective Distortion.
