“…Theories such as Bowen theory (see Klever 2005 for an overview), the ABCX model of family stress (e.g., McCubbin and Patterson 1983;McCubbin et al 1980), family systems theory (e.g., Broderick 1993), the family stress approaches developed by Walker (1985) and by Conger and Elder (1994) and others link closely with some of the positions presented here. There are two points to underscore.…”

“…Such reorganization might involve the sharing of family 'secrets', e.g. the disclosure of the nature of the death of a family member to others in the (extended) family that facilitate honest and intimate communication within the family (Klever, 2005;Rober, Walravens, & Versteynen, 2012).…”

This paper addresses the importance of attending to the interplay of one person's grief with that of another in the context of the family's relationship to the culture at large, where the individual is embedded in a larger matrix of relationships with others as well with the larger interpersonal and cultural context in which the family is embedded. Viewed systemically, grief may or may not be expressed similarly among family members, based upon the impact of a death on them as well as the meaning they attribute to this death. These intra-family differences are a function of how family members interact and communicate, in part consistent with the developmental phase at which families as intergenerational entities are functioning, wherein developmental shifts in family dynamics may also predict of individual grief over time. The therapeutic and research implications of a systems approach to grief are also discussed here.

“…Family systems theory (Kerr & Bowen, 1988) and research (e.g., Hurst, Sawatzky, & Pare, 1996; Klever, 2005) suggest that continuities exist in the family emotional process observed across generations of a family. These “multigenerational trends in functioning reflect an orderly and predictable relationship process that connects the functioning of family members across generations” (Kerr & Bowen, 1988, p. 224).…”

This set of studies was designed to examine the relational underpinnings of child abuse potential in a sample of 51 urban families. In Study 1, lower maternal differentiation of self-most notably, greater emotional reactivity and greater emotional cutoff-along with self-attacking introjects, together distinguished mothers at higher risk (vs. lower risk) for child maltreatment (CM). In Study 2, patterns of interactive rupture and repair were examined in a subsample of n = 15 families and found to vary as a function of risk for CM. Specifically, SASB coding (Benjamin, 1996(Benjamin, , 2003 of mother-children interactions during two moderately stressful lab tasks revealed higher rates of interactive mismatch and mother-initiated ruptures, and fewer successful repairs in families at higher-risk-for-CM, relative to families at lower-risk. Implications for counseling and directions for further translational research are discussed. KeywordsChild maltreatment; parenting; differentiation; SASB; relationship rupture Differentiation, self-other representations, and rupture-repair processes: Predicting child maltreatment-riskChild abuse affects almost 1 million children each year, and estimates indicate that roughly 80% of perpetrators are parents (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Children, Youth, & Families, 2006). The effects of CM constitute a serious public health problem in the United States, with both short and long-term adverse consequences for psychological, behavior, and social outcomes. CM is associated with alterations in fear-stress physiology and brain development (Shonkoff & Phillips, 2000;Gunnar & Donzella, 2002), and impairments in self and emotion regulation (Rogosch, Correspondence may be sent to the first author in the Counseling Psychology Program, Department of Counselor Education, Counseling Psychology, and Rehabilitation Services, 330 Cedar Building, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16801-3110 or eas14@psu.eduM.
