Homelife Stressors and Their Long-Term Impact

/in /by

There are five theories on human development: Psychoanalytic, Behaviorist, Cognitive, Sociocultural, and Evolutionary- all playing a large role in how humans: interact with one another, battle unconscious impulses, respond to stimuli, form concepts, learn values of society, and develop the need to survive and reproduce (Berger, 2017). From a sociocultural perspective, a lot of these traits we learn are more nurture rather than nature. From birth to old age, connections are being made socially and cognitively from sensorimotor functioning levels to advanced formal operational levels. Family functioning is a very in-depth topic that be used to further examine the effects on children as they grow into adulthood. There are certain necessities that must exist in these family homes to insure a healthy development- physically, mentally, and emotionally. However, there are certain life circumstances that can serve as a barrier to a stress-free lifestyle. A few that have been annotated are relocation, divorce, and unemployment (Berger, 2017). All of which are understood to a more sophisticated degree by the parents and can affect their children depending on their child’s age, genes, and gender. It is not until the ages of six to eleven that children start to cognitively apply logic and begin to have a thinking experience from direct experiences.

A study was conducted to measure the effects of high-conflict divorce on separating families. The goal was to further understand the level of internalizing and externalizing problems that resulted withing the children of separated parents. The child’s perception was one of the measurement tools that were used to determine frequency of stressful situations that were displayed by the parents and it was concluded that parental quality (PQ) can have an effect on their child’s externalizing and internalizing problems, post-divorce (Hara, Sandler, Wolchik, Tein, & Rhodes, 2019).

Several adults were surveyed on their current relationship satisfaction, personal trauma history and other participant data history to further uncover complications that can occur in family homes that may have impact on the family function and the current mental state of these families. There was a total of twenty-two respondents who participated in a ten-item survey.

Methods:  This study was conducted in order to better recognition and understanding of MS disorder using radiologic MRI techniques and the main problem is the increase prevalence among public population   . The database registry was limited to hospitalized  patients whom diagnosed with  multiple sclerosis  using MRI techniques  and the population of the study was 80 participants  their age elder than 16 years old  in period from April  to  November  2020 .Normal condition or other neurological disorders were excluded.

Results: The most important results obtained in this study is that it is possible to diagnose Multiple sclerosis patients in an accurate manner using magnetic resonance imaging technology.  The outcome of variable detected prevalence of 80 samples 52.5% of them were male, and 47.5% were female and the big distribution group was 53% aged between 30-39 years. The obtained data also showed that the most affected brain region was periventricular matter with 30%, followed by the frontal lobe with 27.5%. clinical etiology big distribution data were achieved for vision Problems with percentage of   22.5 % followed by Dizziness & vertigo sensation with percentage of 18.7% The MRI techniques showed two appearance of MS lesions and plaques, the most distribution achieved for foci appearance with percentage of 75% and patchy appearance with 25% present.
