Every family has different ways they have learned to communicate. This particular pattern impacts how we speak to each other, how we solve problems that occur, and the ways in which we care for each other.
In this episode of "All Together: The Family Science Insights Podcast," host Dina Sargeant is joined by Dr Jennifer L. Bevan, a professor in the School of Communication at Chapman University in California, United States. Her research interests focus upon the negotiation of difficult relational interactions, such as ongoing conflict, jealousy, family caregiving, chronic illness, as well as related psychological and physical health correlates of these experiences. She has published more than 75 scholarly communication books, articles, and book chapters appearing in such journals as Human Communication Research, Communication Research, Social Science and Medicine, and Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking. She was recognized in 2009 and 2016 as one of the most prolific and central scholars in the field of communication and received multiple book awards for her 2013 book The Communication of Jealousy (Peter Lang Press).
Dina and Dr. Jennifer delve into a deeper understanding of caregiving, widening the conversation to include not only elderly care but also the care for family members with disabilities. Dr. Jennifer also shares her valuable viewpoints, combining the communication patterns we observe and create in our families, which can significantly affect our relationships with those whom we take care of. Communication challenges that can either be taken the wrong way or get heated very quickly in many families are explored, and Dr. Jennifer offers practical strategies to reduce potential conflicts and arguments that may arise.
