Considering human development and family science from an HBCU faculty perspective: Commentary on Dyer Journal of Family Theory & Review (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2025-02-12 Jennifer J. Ross
The article by Dyer (2024) tells the origin story of human development and family science (HDFS). Dyer suggested that HDFS inherited its discipline and department from home economics, but the phasing out of home economics from academia has led to disciplinary fragmentation. This commentary is rooted in my experiences as an HDFS scholar, faculty at two different historically Black universities, and

Missing pieces: A critical review of research on forced marriage and a call for family scientists to study forced marriage Journal of Family Theory & Review (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2025-01-22 Jessie V. Ford, Aarushi Shah, Fraidy Reiss, Jennifer S. Hirsch
In recent decades, there has been increased attention paid to the phenomenon of forced marriage. However, much of this work positions forced marriage as a problem of “backwards” culture or religion. This scoping review synthesizes and critiques research on forced marriage, showing that extant research has focused on individual circumstances of vulnerability, forced entrance to marriage, and cisgendered

Why is traditional polygamy unjust? Implications for egalitarian nonmonogamy Journal of Family Theory & Review (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2025-01-10 Perri Sriwannawit
The notion of equality attracts both proponents and critics of nonmonogamy. Inequality is a widely discussed objection to nonmonogamy. Simultaneously, equality is highlighted as a core value in ethical nonmonogamy. The notions of equality and inequality in these debates have not been clearly conceptualized. In order to propose a conception of egalitarian nonmonogamy, it is important to first understand

Purpose: A potential catalyst and anchor for optimal work–family balance and well‐being Journal of Family Theory & Review (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2024-10-28 Jamie D. Alexander, Charlene Harris, Stacie Durocher
Working parents often report difficulties in establishing optimal work–family balance, and such difficulties tend to yield poorer parent well‐being, parenting quality, and child well‐being. Despite advances in understanding of the long‐lasting and multifaceted benefits of purpose in life, up to this point, scant attention has been given to the concept of purpose as a practical means for promoting better

Parent–child discrepancies in mate preferences: A three‐level meta‐analysis Journal of Family Theory & Review (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2024-09-25 Lu Ran Zhang, Kelly Ka Lai Lam, Wei‐Wen Chen
Through the lens of evolutional psychology, mate preferences are posited into a three “G” framework (good genes, good resources, and good persons/parents/partners) that captures genetic quality, resource acquisition, and personality and caregiving qualities. Previous research acknowledged that adult children had different mate preferences from their parents, but had no consensus on how such differences

Many Americans believe that a breakdown in the “traditional” two‐married‐parent family and the rise in single‐parent families are responsible for persistent family inequality. The general argument is that children do best when they are raised by both biological parents. Evidence increasingly calls into question conventional wisdom about the universal benefits of the two‐parent family, yet mainstream

A theoretical integration of work–family studies with the transactional model of stress Journal of Family Theory & Review (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2024-09-05 Geunpil Ryu
The work–family conflict theory posits that due to limited time and energy, individuals inevitably experience work–family role conflict, resulting in increased role strain. Conversely, the work–family enrichment theory suggests that multiple role involvement in work and family can lead to positive effects on well‐being through a virtuous cycle, known as a positive spillover effect.

An increasing number of scholars suggest the need to enhance the incorporation of diversity and social justice across all areas of family science. Part of this work has seen family science more strongly and explicitly incorporate intersectional theorizing to problematize individual biases and power positions, generally, and of researchers and participants, more specifically.

Human development and family science: A story of disciplinary fragmentation and kinship Journal of Family Theory & Review (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2024-07-29 Kathleen D. Dyer
Departments of Human Development and Family Science (HDFS) are a disciplinary descendent of home economics, which emerged in the late 1800s as a product of progressivism, funding tied to agriculture, and misogyny in higher education. The study of development and family joined home economics departments in the 1930s and 1940s. Some home economics departments were dismantled in the 1960s and others were

Self‐care, a ubiquitous concept commonly touted as the solution to an array of modern‐day problems, implies unapologetic selfishness aimed at preserving mental, emotional, and physical health. The overtly individualistic framing in its most common usage—the centering of oneself for the sake of oneself—obscures power relations and structural/institutional inequalities that create the need for self‐care

Children's social–emotional learning as emotional labor: Recognizing children's contributions Journal of Family Theory & Review (IF 3.2) Pub Date : 2024-05-17 Karina Ruiz
In the United States, the dominant contemporary understanding of childhood is one that is cultivated through children's role as dependents, served by adults who are their providers.
