Adolescents in rural and small city high schools in the western United States ( N = 159) reported their perceptions of marriage and marriage education. They considered preparation for marriage important, but expressed lower familiarity with and lower intentions to attend programs than college students assessed previously. Youth valued parents, peers, volunteer couples, and personal experience as sources of information on marriage and were most interested in a brief, low‐cost program led by a volunteer ...

Three significant trends in youth development practice are discussed: movement toward consensus in models guiding practice, movement toward science‐based practice, and increasing resources available to practitioners. Consensus on an ecological framework for risk reduction and competence building among advocates for prevention, resilience, and developmental paradigms improves selection of appropriate strategies for all youth audiences, as does research‐based evidence on effective programs. Practitioners ...

This exploratory study seeks to better understand the link between peer-related violence (perpetration and victimization) and suicide risk among youth. The study uses data gathered from Arizona, Nevada, and Wyoming, where the highest rates of adolescent suicide in the United States are found. The data derive from in-school surveys of eighth-grade students conducted during 1998 and 1999. Higher levels of reported suicide risk were prominent among the multiethnic, urban, and female respondents. Male ...

Data from 1,285 recently married soldiers who participated in the 1989 Army Family Research Program survey indicated that premarital counseling by itself had little effect on subsequent marital satisfaction. However, those who had premarital counseling were more likely to use marital and family therapy services, at both subclinical and clinical levels of distress, than others who had not had such counseling before marriage.

In a subsample of 57 husbands and 120 wives who had participated in a larger study of retention of church members, an effect size of 0.23 was found between gender and marital satisfaction as measured by the Kansas Marital Satisfaction Scale. The results are consistent with previous findings of a gender effect, the “his and hers” marriage.
