- catalog abstract ""Health psychology has become very individually based, yet psychologists and other health care professionals are often working with families. The family plays a major role in determining the maintenance of health and reaction to illness; thus, there is a strong need for a family approach to health psychology. This book investigates the ways families affect and are affected by health and illness." "This volume, a result of the 1991 Third Annual Kent Psychology Forum, is divided into three sections. The first discusses family perspectives on prevention of illness, family health beliefs, and family dynamics as they relate to the maintenance of health. The second section focuses on family reactions to illness and successful and unsuccessful patterns of response. Various perspectives on the involvement of families in the treatment of illness are presented. Lastly, the third section focuses on professional intervention in family grief. Authored by psychologists, physicians, family therapists, social workers, and nurses, this book will be of interest to academics and professionals in those fields, as well as researchers and clinicians. It is also suitable as a primary or companion textbook for graduate-level courses."--BOOK JACKET.".
