UM OLHAR CRÍTICO SOBRE A TEMÁTICA DA ALIENAÇÃO PARENTAL: RELAÇÕES FAMILIARES, GÊNERO E PROTEÇÃO SOCIAL
Este artigo tece problematizações em torno do debate da alienação parental, trazendo reflexões dos Conselhos Federais de Serviço Social e de Psicologia acerca do tema, além de apontamos de autores contrários e favoráveis à lei de Alienação Parental no Brasil. Trata-se de um assunto complexo que exige ser revisitado, posto que, em nome da prote- ção de crianças e adolescentes essa lei pode ser utilizada para interromper investigações sobre violências reais envolvendo filhos de pais separados, sob o pretexto da ocorrência do fenômeno, além de ser utilizada com enfoque machista quando atravessada por repercussões de gênero. Nesse contexto há que se considerar que as relações familiares não podem ser patologizadas e nem dissociadas na dinâmica social mais ampla em que se inserem. Para a construção desse artigo debruçamo-nos sobre estudos bibliográficos e documentais que versam sobre o tema com abordagem qualitativa.

Suicidal risk among Chinese parents of autistic children and its association with perceived discrimination, affiliate stigma and social alienation
Background
Caring for autistic children becomes challenging and may lead to negative psychological outcomes, even increasing the suicide risk (SR). Researchers have studied the SR among parents of autistic children in Western nations, but little is known about it in China and how it relates to perceived discrimination (PD), affiliate stigma (AS), and social alienation (SA). The current study aimed to reveal the SR prevalence rate among Chinese parents of autistic children, and clarify whether AS and SA may play mediating roles in the association between SR and PD.
Methods
A total of 645 Chinese parents of autistic children were recruited to complete a series of scales to evaluate SR, SA, AS, and PD using the Suicidal Behaviors Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R), Perceived Discrimination Scale for Parents of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (PDS-FP), Affiliate Stigma Scale (ASS), and General Social Alienation Scale (GSAS), respectively. Then, the SR prevalence rate among Chinese parents of autistic children was evaluated; and the multiple mediation analysis and structural equation modeling with the bootstrap method were conducted to test the mediating effects of AS and SA in the association between SR and PD.
Results
34.6% Chinese parents of autistic children had high SR. In particular, the incidence rate of suicide ideation, suicide plans, suicide attempts, and suicide likelihood during the previous year were 49.8%, 11.9%, 2.5%, and 13.8%, respectively. Additionally, PD was positively associated with SR (
r
= .40,
p
< .01); and AS and SA showed significant mediating effects on the association between PD and SR (
p
< .01).
Conclusions
The current study evaluated the SR prevalence rate among Chinese parents of autistic children, and clarified the mediating effects of AS and SA in the association between SR and PD. Findings might bring new insights and guidance for intervention of suicidality among Chinese parents of autistic children.

Owls do cry
First published in New Zealand in 1957, Owls Do Cry , was Janet Frame's second book and the first of her thirteen novels. Now approaching its 60th anniversary, it is securely a landmark in Frame's catalog and indeed a landmark of modernist literature. The novel spans twenty years in the Withers family, tracing Daphne's coming of age into a post-war New Zealand too narrow to know what to make of her. She is deemed mad, institutionalized, and made to undergo a risky lobotomy. Margaret Drabble calls Owls Do Cry \"a song ofsurvival\"--it is Daphne's song of survival but also the author's: Frame was herself misdiagnosed with schizophrenia and scheduled for brain surgery. She was famously saved only when she won New Zealand's premier fiction prize. Frame was among the first major writers of the twentieth century to confront life in mental institutions and Owls Do Cry is important for this perspective. But it is equally valuable for its poetry, its incisive satire, and its acute social observations. A sensitively rendered portrait of childhood and adolescence and a testament to the power of imagination, this early novel is a first-rate example of Frame's powerful, lyric, and original prose.

How perceived overqualification relates to work alienation and emotional exhaustion: The moderating role of LMX
The current study investigated the interaction effect of perceived overqualification and LMX on employee emotional exhaustion, and examined the mediating role of work alienation from the perspective of relative deprivation theory. Using a sample of 297 employees in 12 companies collected in China, we found that perceived overqualification was more positively related to work alienation and emotional exhaustion when LMX was high than when LMX was low. The results of the mediated moderation analysis revealed that work alienation mediated the interaction of perceived overqualification and LMX on emotional exhaustion.

The effect of social alienation on stigma among stroke inpatients in China: a cross-sectional study
Background
Stigma adversely affects the rehabilitation among stroke inpatients, which decreases the motivation and functional improvement. According to prior studies, there was a correlation between social alienation and stigma. This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing stigma among stroke inpatients, providing evidence for future targeted stigma interventions.
Methods
The study was a cross-sectional survey conducted in China from July to November 2023 using a convenience sampling method. Ethical approval for this study was obtained from the Medical Ethics Committee. A total of 220 stroke inpatients completed a demographic questionnaire, the generalized social alienation scale, and the stroke stigma scale. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the impact of the diverse factors on stigma.
Results
The results showed that the score of stigma among stroke inpatients was 47.36 ± 4.28, indicating a moderate level of stigma. Social alienation was positively correlated with stigma(
r
= 0.366,
P
< 0.001), indicating stigma increased with the increase of social alienation. Age(
B
=-2.105,
P
< 0.001), level of education[Junior high school(
B
= 1.545,
P
= 0.040), senior high school or technical secondary school(
B
= 3.480,
P
< 0.001), undergraduate or junior college(
B
= 3.716,
P
< 0.001), and graduate(
B
= 5.483,
P
< 0.001)], and social alienation(
B
= 0.158,
P
< 0.001) were all significantly associated with stigma in stroke inpatients. Among all educational levels, graduate(
B
= 5.483,
P
< 0.001) showed the most robust correlation with stigma. The results indicated that stroke inpatients who were younger and had higher levels of education had higher levels of stigma.
Conclusions
Findings suggest that social alienation is a significant contributor to perceived stigma among stroke inpatients, particularly among younger and more educated individuals. Tailored psychosocial interventions that address feelings of social alienation may help reduce stigma in these groups.

Long-term emotional consequences of parental alienation exposure in children of divorced parents: A systematic review
Although the emotional consequences of childhood exposure to parental alienation behaviors in children and adolescents of divorced parents are known, there is scarce evidence on their long-term consequences in adulthood. Therefore, this work aims to conduct a systematic review of the state of research in this area and its main conclusions and identify gaps and limitations to guide future research. A search of the literature was performed in electronic databases PsycInfo, MEDLINE, SCOPUS, Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, DART-Europe, ProQuest, Wiley, TESEO and Dialnet, and a secondary review of the bibliography; in February 2019 updated in December of the same year. Thirteen pieces of research were selected after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria; twelve published articles from journals and one doctoral thesis, both with qualitative and quantitative methodology. Children exposed to parental interference and alienation show in adulthood depression and anxiety symptoms, a higher risk of psychopathology, lower self-esteem and self-sufficiency. As well as, higher alcohol and drug use rates, parental relationship difficulties, insecure attachment, lower life quality, higher divorce rates, feelings of loss, abandonment and guilt. They also report repetition of these alienating behaviors on their children by their partner or their own children's grandparents. Some limitations of the study are described, and proposals are made for future research.
