“…As Kessen said, "It's perfectly all right for people to till their own garden, but once in a while they are going to have to talk over the fence" (Bronfenbrenner, Kessel, Kessen, &White, 1986, p. 1224. Structural arrangements (e. g., case conferences, regular faculty meetings, and more extended faculty-student retreats) can improve the chances for dialogue, but, like democracy, pluralism has a price-eternal vigilance by all concerned, so that open communication and mutual respect are maintained.…”

We describe a pluralistic sumiculum fo~r doctoral education in clinical psychology. Two successful curricular innovations are highlighted. First, the usual courses in p~~ychopathology, psychological assessment, and intervention are (offered as 5-week moduks. Each module covers a subtopic within the broader area (e. g., introduction to the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality lnventory m an assessment module and depression as a psychopathology module). Second, students are introduced to alternative psychotherapeutic approaches in practicum courses that integrate didactic yterial with supervised practice in a particular approach.

“…Families do not exist in vacuums, but are embedded within a variety of larger systems (Bronfenbrenner et al 1986). Just as it is important that a sibling subsystem maintain healthy boundaries and responsive communication with a parental subsystem, so, too, is it necessary for families and their individual members to remain in healthy relationships with others outside and beyond the family's borders.…”

The length and frequency of deployments in the current wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are associated with increased vulnerability for both part-and full-time military families who stand to benefit from systems-oriented practice by marriage and family therapists. Community Family Therapy (CFT) is a modality designed to promote resilience both within and beyond the four walls of the therapy room, facilitate family connections in the community, and empower them for local leadership. The effects of deployment on families are summarized and CFT principles are adapted as a framework for intervention with this population.Keywords Community engagement Á Deployment Á Family therapy Á Military familiesIn over 9 years of the Global War on Terror (GWOT), including Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF), more than 1.8 million United States service men and women have been deployed overseas (RAND Corporation 2009), leaving behind a staggering number of loved ones, including parents, spouses, partners, and children. In the last few years, research on the effects of a previously unforeseeable number of deployments and increased operations tempo on military families has expanded rapidly. There are still numerous gaps, such as program evaluation (Griffith 2010), clarification of risk versus resilience (Ternus 2010), variations of deployment effects based on gender, and developmental differences of children (Chandra et al. 2010;Chartrand et al. 2008;Lester et al. 2010).One significant and practical gap concerns how civilian counselors and therapists can more effectively intervene with military families in this situation. In this article I address the unique role that marriage and family therapists (MFTs) can play in promoting

“…Utilizando a terminologia seguida pelo próprio Bronfenbrenner, a perspectiva ecológica do desenvolvimento humano afirma-se como um modelo "pós-positivista" de compreensão dos princípios implicados no desenvolvimento psicológico, equiparando a ênfase colocada nas questões biológicas e genéticas ao papel das dimensões históricas e socioculturais implicadas nesse desenvolvimento, sobretudo a partir da adolescência (Bronfenbrenner, Kessel, Kessen White, 1986). Aqui reside, aliás, o motivo pelo qual, com o avançar da idade, mais importante do que estudar os organismos de per si é proceder ao estudo das "variáveis" com que os indivíduos se confrontam na sua vida, tendo presente que cada ser humano configura um organismo "como um todo, detentor de características genéticas, fisiológicas, emocionais, cognitivas e sociais, que funcionam de modo diferenciado em diferentes cenários e contextos" (Bronfenbrenner, Kessel, Kessen & White, p. 1219).…”

ResumoApresenta-se um conjunto de perspectivas teóricas que encaram o desenvolvimento psicológico como uma sucessão coerente de mudanças sistemáticas e organizadas ao nível do funcionamento e do comportamento individuais, implicando uma adaptação constante dos indivíduos face a transformações ocorridas a nível interno e externo. Inspiradas por uma compreensão contextualista do desenvolvimento, comparam-se os principais aspectos de quatro teorias que procuram explicar o modo como o desenvolvimento se faz no decurso da vida humana: abordagem ecológica, contextualismo desenvolvimental, teoria da acção e do controle, perspectiva desenvolvimental do ciclo de vida. Algumas implicações dos aspectos comuns a estas teorias são finalmente concretizadas em termos do estudo do processo de envelhecimento, salientando a importância cada vez maior de que se reveste o estudo das diferenças inter-individuais em tal processo a partir da análise de percursos individuais de desenvolvimento. Palavras-chave: Desenvolvimento; ciclo de vida; envelhecimento. AbstractSome theoretical approaches that look into human development as a coherent movement of systematic and organized changes in individual functioning and behavior are presented. These changes will demand a constant individual adaptation coping with transformations occurring in internal and external levels. Inspired by a contextualist paradigm of human development, the main aspects of four theories that try to explain the way how development occurs throughout human life are compared: ecological approach, developmental contextualism, theory of action and control, life-span developmental perspective. Some implications of common features of these theories are applied in what concerns the study of the process of aging, focusing the growing importance of the study of inter-individual differences in such process from the analysis of individual developmental pathways. Keywords: Development; life-span; aging.Desde o início do século XX que o estudo do desenvolvimento de crianças e adolescentes, primeiro, e de adultos e idosos, mais tarde, constituiu matéria suficientemente vasta para que, em poucas dezenas de anos, se tenha alterado substancialmente o modo como encaramos o desenvolvimento psicológico do ser humano. Assim, se durante a primeira metade do século XX predominaram concepções que restringiam o desenvolvimento ora à sequência crescimento-estabilidade-declínio, ora aos períodos da infância e da adolescência, ao longo da segunda metade do século foram emergindo concepções de natureza multidisciplinar que reflectiam conceitos diferenciados de desenvolvimento.O alargamento do enfoque da psicologia do desenvolvimento permitiu igualmente reconhecer que o desenvolvimento não se limita à infância e adolescência mas decorre ao longo de todo o ciclo de vida do ser humano, e que, por outro lado, não há só um caminho mas sim múltiplos caminhos possíveis de desenvolvimento, os quais se acentuam progressivamente com o avanço da idade. À medida que as pessoas envelhecem, os seus percursos de ...
