Analysis of Sher’s “Psychological characteristics of children of alcoholics”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page reaction paper to Kenneth Sher’s article “Psychological characteristics of children of alcoholics” (1997). In a analysis of Kenneth Sher’s article “Psychological characteristics of children of alcoholics” (1997), a good description of historical studies and categorizations can be found in regards to mental health issues involved in the study of children of alcoholics (COAs). In his article, Sher comments that despite the growing research in the area, results have been inconclusive and inconsistent and with examination of other research studies this claim has been found to be correct. Because of these inconsistencies, Sher basically does not try and tackle the controversial area of cause and effect of psychological characteristics in COAs but rather decides to adequately describe consistent characteristics found in COAs such as anxiety, depression and impulsivity among others. What Sher does not do extensively however is look at more of the research in the area which compares COAs psychological characteristic with those of non-COAs. When researchers have done this in more detail in their studies, it would seem that many of these characteristics may not be based on the fact that these are children of alcoholics but in fact that these are children of a negative role model environment and were not taught appropriate methods of coping and support.
Bibliography lists 5 sources.
