Die impak van die postmodernisme op voorhuwelikse verhoudings : 'n pastorale studie / R.S. SteynSteyn, Rian Stephanus January 2005 (has links)
The shift from Modernism to Postmodernism had a dramatic impact on different spheres
of life, especially on premarital relationships. The Song of songs has been used as
basis theory in this study on premarital relationships. The study attempts to lay down
guidelines for premarital relationships from the conviction that human relationships are
grounded in God's love for man. The perspectives which have became evident are
developed and evaluated through the meta-theory. Any study on young people in
relationships must consider changes in society due to the fact that young people perform
an important seismographic function. This is due to the fact that they are not only deeply
affected by these changes but are also acting as indicators for the demands and
challenges that changing times has on people and relationships. The lifecycle from late
adolescence to early adulthood is studied. Special focus is given to different areas of
development in this lifecycle as well as to different relationships young people are
involved with. Qualitative interviews have been used to determine the effect of the
Postmodernism and the specific lifecycle on young people in premarital relationships. A
practice-orientated theoretical framework for pastoral guidance of young people in
premarital relationships is drafted. / Thesis (Ph.D. (Pastoral))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2006.

The Relationships Among Self-Esteem, Marital Communication, and Marital AdjustmentCarter, Warren Leslie 02 1900 (has links)
This investigation seeks to determine the correlations among the three factors of self-esteem, marital communication and marital adjustment to determine if these factors are evidenced similarly in the marital system, and to determine if their relationships are consistent among a wide range of marriages. In addition, several demographic variables are isolated in order to determine their influence on the three factors under investigation. Based on the findings of the study, it was concluded that marital adjustment is dependent on married individuals' level of self-esteem and the ability to communicate effectively. It was also concluded that when there is a high level of either self-esteem, marital communiation, or marital adjustment, the other factors will also be at a high level. In addition, the consistency of the relationships among marital adjustment, marital communication, and self-esteem apparently transcend demographic factors.

Caring with women married to Dutch Reformed clergymen: narratives of pain, survival and hopeSwart, Chené 30 November 2003 (has links)
The purpose of this research journey was twofold: (1) to investigate the ways in which the lives of women married to clergymen have been influenced by their position in the Dutch Reformed Church and (2) to collaboratively present ways of caring and supporting these women living within this reality. Discourse analysis explored the taken-for-granted truths and power relationships that inform these women's daily lives. Fifteen women embarked on this feminist narrative participatory action research journey, not only to tell their stories but also to negotiate for change in current practices as well as their own contexts. This research journey challenges the institutional structure of the Church through narratives of hope, survival and pain, as storied in a book (Lamentations and Butterflies, 2003), that were collaboratively constructed by the women living these realities. This book and research journey offers a deeper understanding of the experience of being a clergyman's wife in the Dutch Reformed Church. / Practical Theology / M.Th. (Practical Theology)
