Accepting influence in military couples: Implications for couples ’ communication and family satisfaction
AbstractIn popular relationship resources, accepting influence is regarded as a couple-level process vital for relational satisfaction. However, empirical research has demonstrated inconsistent evidence for these suppositions, with several studies identifying no associations between accepting influence and relationship outcomes, and, furthermore, several gaps in the literature remain with regard to our knowledge on accepting influence (e.g., little identified research on military couples or family outcomes). To address these gaps, a measure of perceptions of one's partner accepting influence was retrospectively created to ...

Evidence base review of couple ‐ and family‐based psychosocial interventions to promote infant and early childhood mental health, 2010–2019
AbstractInfant and early childhood mental health (IECMH) has been defined as the capacity of infants and young children to regulate their emotions, form secure relationships, and explore their environments. For this special issue, we conducted a review of IECMH outcomes from evaluations of couple- and family-based psychosocial interventions not explicitly designed for trauma exposure published from 2010 through 2019, following Evidence Base Update criteria and the current convention of classifying general categories of intervention approaches rather than the former practice of evaluating specific brand-name packaged progra...

Helping couples achieve relationship success: A decade of progress in couple relationship education research and practice, 2010 –2019
This article systematically reviewed 34 rigorous evaluation studies of couple relationship education (CRE) programs from 2010 to 2019 that met the criteria for Level 1 well-established interventions. Significant advances include reaching more diverse and disadvantaged target populations with positive intervention effects on a wider range of outcomes beyond relationship quality, including physical and mental health, coparenting, and even child well-being, and evidence that high-risk couples often benefit the most. In addition, considerable progress has been made delivering effective online CRE, increasing services to indivi...

AbstractThis review details advances in randomized controlled trials of family-based treatments for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) conducted in the United States from 2010 to 2019, and the impact of these treatments on the domain of family functioning. Twenty-two studies were included in the review and three types of family treatments, integrated parent –child treatments, parent-directed treatments, and youth treatments with adjunctive parent involvement, were identified for children and adolescents. Studies point to considerable advancements in consideration of understudied and diverse populations, and ...

Couple and family interventions for depressive and bipolar disorders: Evidence base update (2010 –2019)
This article systematically reviews the evidence base for couple and family interventions for depressive and bipolar disorders published from 2010 to 2019.

Well-established interventions include cognitive and/or behavioral couple and family interventions for depression and psychoeducational family interventions for bipolar.

Family ‐based treatments for disruptive behavior problems in children and adolescents: An updated review of rigorous studies (2014–April 2020)
This article builds on previous work by providing an updated evaluation of family-based treatments based on results from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for three populations: (1) children with disruptive behavior, (2) adolescents with disruptive behavior, and (3) adolescents with juvenile justice involvement. Using a comprehensive process, 28 new reports on 27 RCTs were identified for the 2014 –April 2020 period, which when combined with the prior evidence base of all rigorous RCTs, resulted in 3well-established, 11probably efficacious, and 7possibly efficacious family-based treatment categories. Many of the RCTs le...

Review of family ‐based treatments from 2010 to 2019 for suicidal ideation and behavior
AbstractSuicide ideation and behavior are pervasive public health issues. Given that positive interpersonal relationships can be a protective factor against suicide risk, we conducted a systematic review to examine peer-reviewed publications from 2010 to 2019 that included empirical data, tested an intervention with at least some family component, and included a suicide-related outcome measure. We reviewed and synthesized findings from 22 articles covering 7 intervention categories with 12 interventions to examine the treatment components and the quality of evidence to support them. Using Southam-Gerow and Prinstein's (Chi...

Using systemic interventions to reduce intimate partner violence or child maltreatment: A systematic review of publications between 2010 and 2019
AbstractThis systematic review seeks to understand the effectiveness of systemic interventions to reduce Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) or child maltreatment published between January 2010 and December 2019. We found nine studies reviewing systemic interventions for IPV and 12  studies reviewing systemic interventions for child maltreatment. In our discussion, we added relevant articles published before 2010 to determine the overall state of the evidence for these interventions. We determined that parent training programs with in vivo coaching components for child maltre atment meet the criteria for well-established inte...
