Sexual Distress and Marital Quality of Newlyweds: An Investigation of Sociodemographic Moderators
ConclusionHigh sexual distress is distinct from low sexual satisfaction and may indicate insufficient adaptive processes for partners experiencing chronic stress. Social context and factors beyond marital processes may influence the role sexual intimacy plays in marital quality.
ImplicationsFindings contribute to practitioners' understanding of how sexual distress relates to marital quality in diverse newlywed couples. (Source: Family Relations)

Stress and Relationship Functioning in Same ‐Sex Couples: The Vulnerabilities of Internalized Homophobia and Outness
ConclusionHypotheses were partially supported; high levels of internalized homophobia and low outness were shown to be potential enduring vulnerabilities for individuals in a same‐sex relationship.
ImplicationsHelping same‐sex couples cope with their own and their partner's daily stress, as well as working to decrease internalized homophobia while increasing openness about their sexuality, may help to promote relational functioning. (Source: Family Relations)

Scaffolding in Family Relationships: A Grounded Theory of Coming Out to Family
ConclusionThis study established a grounded theory of coming out for Taiwanese LGB individuals and their families in which disclosures are often absent and scaffolding to reach goals is key.
ImplicationsCultural background and the prolonged iterative process of coming out should be considered when theorizing about and providing relevant professional services to this population. (Source: Family Relations)

From Discovery to Practice: Translating and Transforming Work –Family Research for the Health of Families
In this article the meaning of translational research in the work and family field is examined. Specifically, we review findings from a longitudinal study of low‐wage workers across the transition to parenthood and examine how this basic discovery research informs the next step in translational research, that of clinical practice. The authors describe three specific sets of findings that hold direct and immediate implications for interventions and policy that could support working families. We close with a discussion of how both translational and transdisciplinary research have the potential to inform evidence‐based pr...

Adapting the Ideas of Translational Science for Translational Family Science
Family science has been doing translational science since before it came into vogue. Nevertheless, the field has been subjected to the same forces in the broader academy that have created a widening chasm between discovery and practice. Thus, the primary objective of this article is to translate the principles, concepts, and models of translational science to solidify an identity for family science and help the field move forward in broader academic, care delivery, and policy arenas. Alternative models of translational science, primarily from biomedicine but also from other disciplines, are reviewed and critically analyzed...

From Education to Advocacy and Activism: Alternative Approaches for Translating Family Science to Policy
Historically, translational family science frameworks focused on policy have delimited the roles family scientists can play and the approaches they can implement within the scientific realm. In this article, we call for an expanded translational research‐to‐policy framework that is inclusive of such roles as policy educator, scholar‐advocate, and scholar‐activist. We argue that, depending on the policy topic or context of one's research, different approaches and roles are needed to move family research to policy, especially when working with marginalized and disenfranchised families. We then present 3 approaches to...

Family Life Education: Translational Family Science in Action
Discussion of the foundational principles of FLE (education, prevention, strengths‐based, and research and theory‐based) and its key components (culture, context, content, and practice) provide a framework for considering the reciprocal relationship between family science and family life education in the context of translational family science. Further discussion is provided regarding possible barriers to progress and the need to better integrate discovery science and practice science. (Source: Family Relations)
