Confidence in protection: a developmental psychopathology perspective
Article Abstract:
The notion of family and the statistical notion of risk and protective factors should be taken into account when seeking to integrate attachment theory and principles connected with developmental psychopathology. It is important to recognize that confidence in protection is a construct with origins in the notion of organized social context. Confidence in protection is an intentional process carried out between the child and caregivers and is connected with immediate child outcomes. In contrast, risk-protection models are statistical attributions for assessing optimal or non-optimal child outcomes in the long term.

Predictive validity of coping strategies on marital satisfaction: cross-sectional and longitudinal evidence
Article Abstract:
A longitiudinal study of 506 French Canadian couples analyzed the connections between coping strategies and marital satisfaction. There are differences between coping strategies of men and women. Both use problem-solving approaches and there are some ineffectual strategies used by men and women. Coping strategies affect a person's personal satisfaction level with the marriage and impact a partner's satisfaction also. There is a curvilinear link betwen self-reported coping strategies and self- and partner-reported marital satisfaction.
