DOWNLOAD EBOOKExplaining Family Interactions represents a unique collection that may stand alone or complement a traditional textbook. The contents reflect the ever-changing nature of families and the role communication plays in creating and maintaining family relationships. The collection captures the wide universe of family experience as represented in fine scholarship. --Kathleen M. Galvin, Northwestern University What relationship exists between family structure and communication? How do communication patterns between family members change over time? What role does culture play in family communication? In this groundbreaking volume, a stellar team of contributors answers these and other significant questions by offering a detailed review of current research and state-of-the-art ideas concerning both communication processes and family functioning. Contributors explore a rich tapestry of topics, including family conflict, courtship and dating relationships, postdivorce relations, communication and family culture, and dual-career families, to name but a few. And, while contributors each explore different aspects of family communication, all address similar questions and incorporate a range of methodological and/or theoretical positions. Explaining Family Interactions is an ideal resource for all scholars and students in the fields of interpersonal communication, family studies, relationships, family sociology, and social psychology.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is Volume VII of fifteen in a series on the Sociology of Gender and the Family. Originally published in 1956, this collection of papers demonstrates the authors’ interest is in the functioning of the modern American family and its place in the structure of our society and that perhaps the most important function of the family lies in its contribution to the socialization of children. In view of this fact an analysis of the family with special reference to its functions as a socializing agency should contribute importantly to our understanding, both of the family itself and of its relations to the rest of the social structure in which it exists.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFamily structure consists of family size and composition, family status and role, family power and authority, family communication and interaction and family relationship. These patterns of family structure are quite universal, and vary across the world cultures. Over the decades the empirical studies on the patterns of family structure have done are mostly culture-specific or specific content or perspective-oriented. This empirical book cross-culturally focuses on comprehensive multidimensional patterns of family structure between Muslim and Santal communities in rural Bangladesh. In so doing primary data collected through structural questionnaire method from both the communities, Kalna village, Bangladesh suggest that there are significant cross-cultural differences in family structure: family size and composition, family status and role, family power and authority, family communication and interaction, marital and family relationship. The findings would help behavioral and social scientists to understand cross-cultural family structure. The results would also help policy-makers and practitioners to design cross-cultural family welfare policy and programs.
