Special issue of Family Relations: Families and Health
Health is a key issue in family science: families shape individual health, and the health and illness of family members shape both intra-family processes and families' interactions with the broader environment. Family Relations will devote a special issue to "Families and Health."
Health is conceptualized broadly to include physical and mental illness, as well as positive domains of health such as 'wellness' and vitality. Likewise, "family" is broadly conceived and includes diverse relationships and family forms. Papers addressing all topics in "families and health" are encouraged, including those pertaining to disease prevention, acute and chronic illnesses, and health promotion from a family perspective. Results of intervention studies that support family health are particularly encouraged. Specific topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the family-related implications of pressing health issues such as the obesity epidemic, emerging health issues such as genetic testing or polytrauma of Gulf War veterans, and papers that emphasize how individual family member health or illness shape family functioning. Papers that speak directly to the policy implications of families and health are also sought. For example, family impact analyses of specific health policies and components of health care delivery systems would be of interest.
Empirical (quantitative and qualitative), and non-empirical papers will be considered. Preference will be given to interdisciplinary papers and those that explicitly link theory, research, and professional practice.
Papers are due by August 4, 2008 for publication in volume 58 (4) of Family Relations, October 2009.
Potential authors are invited to contact the guest editors to discuss submission ideas.
Contact Information, Guest Editors for the Special Issue:
Joseph G. Grzywacz, Ph.D., (336) 716-2237, grzywacz@wfubmc.edu

Special Issue: Family Assessment in Pediatric Psychology
The goals of the special issue are to: a) promote the development and refinement of family assessment measures that will better elucidate family interaction patterns that promote resilience and enhance quality of life in pediatric populations; and b) highlight measures that might be incorporated into ongoing descriptive research focused on family variables as resistance factors or family-focused intervention research aiming to improve adaptation, adherence, and quality of life. Of interest is innovative research documenting the psychometric properties and utility of the standard measures of family functioning in pediatric versus non-ill samples and studies reporting on the development of and unique information that can be gleaned from pediatric-specific family measures. Submissions spanning the contexts of clinical evaluation, descriptive research, and treatment outcomes are encouraged. Particular attention will be given to manuscripts that incorporate unique approaches to the use of multiple informants and multiple methods of assessment.
The deadline for receipt of manuscripts is December 31, 2008.
Manuscripts should be written in APA format, following guidelines by the Journal of Pediatric Psychology. Inquiries regarding potential topics may be directed to Lamia Barakat (Lamia.P.Barakat@drexel.edu) and Melissa Alderfer (alderfer@email.chop.edu).
