1) Emotional Cut-off and Family Health (Robert J. Noone)

The health and well-being of the each generation is very much affected by their unresolved emotional attachment to their previous generation. Individuals who are willing to avoid cut-off and maintain viable contact with their families of origin will have better chance against developing physical, emotional, or behavioral symptoms.

Participants in the research project Observations of Change noted changes in their physiological measures of anxiety and cortisol to correspond their shifts in symptoms and functioning as they work on observing their contact with family, responses during nodal events and manifestation of symptoms through the years. Ms. Harrison brings to light how the participants differ in their ability to to reverse their symptoms as they practice differentiation of self in the face of adversity.

Panel Presentations 0/1

1) The Challenges of Doing Research Guided by Bowen Theory (Renee Chiu)

Ms. Chiu discusses a number of challenges of using Bowen theory for research in Hong Kong due to difficulties such as needing to differentiate the theoretical constructs of Bowen theory from other theoretical approaches, steer away from the conventional cause-effect linear thinking model, maintain a neutral and objective observer stance by the learner, have the availability of a personal coach and consultation rooted in the theory and have more scholarly literature on the theory in Hong Kong to test its validity for the Hong Kong Chinese population.

2) Development and Evaluation of a Group Counselling Model Based on Bowen Theory for College Students with Codependency in Taiwan (Shih-Hua Chang)

Ms. Chang’s research was to find if there is any correlation of development of codependency traits and the level of differentiation of self in college students of a Taiwan University. The result was that there is a negative relationship between the two. A treatment model of group counselling was set up to test the effectiveness of treating these college students from codependency. Clinical implications of such a model are discussed in the presentation.

3) Distance Regulation, Family Health, and Bowen Family Systems Theory (Sarah Worch)

Ms. Worch attempts to conduct a research on the correlation between family health and current partner distance regulation. She hypothesized that having a family history of diabetes or heart disease would result in less effective distance regulation. Her result shows that there is a marginal significant impact on distance regulation measures against a family history of the related health problems. An inference that physical health and the capacity to balance connectedness and separateness can thus be implied.

4) Opportunities in Intergeneration Ambivalence: Differentiation of Self in the Parent Adult-Child Relationship (So Wa Ngai)

Ms. Ngai has conducted an in-depth study of 20 adult-children on their relationship with their parents over their life course. In her presentation, Ms Ngai discusses her findings of 6 intergeneration issues faced by her participants and 5 stages of managing their conflicting thoughts and emotions towards their parents. These struggles facilitated the participants to make new meaning about their experience with their parents to achieve personal growth and a sense of self-agency for themselves.

Brief Presentations 0/1

1) Defining Self in the Room when Working with Trauma (Linda MacKay)

Bowen family systems theory guides the clinician to be vigilant of him/herself when managing very traumatized young clients to avoid being pulled into the urge to take in more responsibilities than the client’s own parents for its welfare. The role and responsibilities of the clinician’s supervisor towards the clinician, those of the therapist self towards the client, and those of the therapist with his/her own family are discussed. Considerations of avoiding burnout, secondary traumatic stress and vicarious traumatization by the clinician are also discussed.

5) the Family Projection Process, a Family Systems View of an Adopted Family (Laura R. Brooks)

Bowen theory hypothesizes why children of the same family turn out differently can be understood from the family protection process and this hypothesis is the same for both adopted and birth children. In her research of 8 adopted families over a 13 year period, Ms. Brooks will present data from a family with two adopted and two birth children and how nodal events experienced by the family as a whole intensifies the projection process onto the children to account for the variation in the children’s functioning.
