As of February 2007 SUMMARY OF PUBLICATIONS (Dr. Walter R. Schumm) THEME ARTICLES
MILITARY FAMILY & HEALTH RESEARCH III.
I. FAMILY THEORY, RESEARCH METHODOLOGY A. Family Theories and Models Integration: The Sourcebook (Boss, Doherty, LaRossa, Schumm, & Steinmetz, 1993) has been the standard volume on theory and research in the field of family studies for the past decade; it sold over 25,000 copies despite it high cost and over 900 page length. Schumm (2003) represents a summarization of five different two dimensional family theory models, derived from over 20 years of teaching family theory, including an elaboration of the family strengths model first presented in Schumm (1985). Schumm (1999), an invited paper keyed to Schumm’s extensive research on satisfaction in families, represents an integration of pleasure, happiness, satisfaction, and joy as four distinct but interrelated aspects of positive affect. Schumm (in press), Schumm (1987), Schumm & Bugaighis (1985), and Schumm & Kirn (1982) all represent Schumm’s expanding application of social exchange and equity theories to difficult and controversial aspects of close relationships.

B. Family Measurement Research Akagi et al. (2003) and Schumm et al. (2001) represent the continuing pursuit of further evaluation and development of the Kansas Marital Satisfaction Scale, observed by Sabatelli (Journal of Marriage and the Family, 1988) to be one of the most valid brief measures of marital quality in the field. Schumm & Hemesath (1999) is the most recent summary and integration of family measurement research published over the past ten years in the family field. Schumm (1990a, b) in the most recent Handbook of Family Measurement, a Behavioral Book Club selection, helped earn the author the 1990 Moran Memorial Research Award (Best Scientist of the Year) from the American Home Economics Association, now the American Association of Family and Consumer Scientists.

C. Data Analysis - Research Methodology, Scholarship of Teaching, and Critiques Integration: Schumm et al. (2002) represents a culmination of Schumm’s scholarship of learning with respect to student learning objectives for research methodology and statistics as applied in the family field. Acock & Schumm (1993) has remained one of the key papers on the use of multivariate statistical methods in the family area. Schumm (1982) and Schumm et al. (1980) were cited for many years past their publication date because of their success at integrating measurement, data analysis, and theory in the family research process, something few papers had done previously. Schumm (2003) represents only the most recent example in which Schumm observed a scholar publishing material that revealed an ignorance of the linkage between theory, measurement, and analysis, with the result having been the acceptance of conclusions that were, in fact, entirely erroneous. When the author of that published paper was asked to reanalyze his data, he avoided the issue by reporting that he had “lost” his data (the same year he had published it). Schumm, W. R.

D. Program Evaluation Research, including Evaluations of Premarital Education and Counseling Programs Integration: Silliman & Schumm (2000, 1999), as well as Schumm & Denton (1979) occasionally, are widely cited because of their comprehensive review of the premarital education and counseling literature over a period of 20 years. Schumm’s numerous articles in the program evaluation area serve his students well when they take FSHS 893, Program Evaluation, from Dr. Schumm. Schumm’s articles with Turek and others represent some very rare published field research with Reserve Component units with respect to the assessment of their training programs. Schumm, W.

E. Marital/Family Outcomes (Interaction and Satisfaction) Integration: Silliman, Schumm, et al. (2003) recently provided the field with an integration of what is known about marital satisfaction as it relates to the prevention of marital problems. In a variety of reports, the most recent being Schumm, Webb, and Bollman (1998), Schumm has tested the Jessie Bernard (1972) hypothesis of the “his and hers” marriage, finding that her view is correct for a minority of marriages, even though gender main effect sizes are typically rather small (0.10). Gwanfogbe, Schumm, et al. (1997) was one of very few recent papers to evaluate marital satisfaction and life satisfaction across monogamous and polygamous marriages. Schumm’s research experience in the areas of family communication, family violence, gender roles, marital quality, family life cycle issues, child discipline, and other topics serves well in his graduate teaching of the courses Marital Interaction (FSHS 862) and Family Studies (FSHS 850).

II. Military Family and Health Research Integration: Schumm and his colleagues (Bell & Schumm, 2005; Schumm, Bell, & Gade, 2000) have been the first ever to publish data that supports the hypothesis that overseas deployments are associated with increases in divorce rates among U.S. military personnel, overturning years of Department of Defense arguments to the contrary. They have also published many of the best recent reports on what the military needs to do to support its families (Bell & Schumm, 2000; Schumm et al., 2000), including papers published internationally (Bell, Segal, & Schumm, 2000). Schumm and his students have published several reports on vaccines and pyridostigmine bromide pills as possible causes of Gulf War illness; recently, the Government Accounting Office (GAO) itself released a report (GAO, 2002) which cited Schumm et al. (2002) as evidence that anthrax vaccine was a cause of Gulf War illness. Lea Steele, who headed up Gulf War research in Kansas under the Kansas Commission on Veterans Affairs and now heads up a national committee on Gulf War issues from her office at the VA Medical Center in Topeka, stated (October, 2003) that Schumm’s Gulf War research is being cited more and more frequently in medical articles on the topic. Most recently, Schumm and others have published research on organizational commitment in the military and its consequences. The only recent summary of what is known about humane treatment in prisoner of war operations was published by Schumm (1998). Also a bit ahead of its time, another report by Schumm et al. (1998) investigated the prospective attitudes of reservists if the military were to change its policy of mobilization frequency and begin asking reservists to accept frequent, year long mobilizations as part of their normal reserve career.

III. OTHER TOPICS Integration: Long interested in the role of religion in family life (Schumm, 2003; Hatch & Schumm, 2003; Cleveland, Kennedy, & Schumm, 1983) and Arab-Americans issues (Faragallah et al., 1996, 1997) Schumm has devoted some attention to comparative religion, specifically the relationship between Christianity and Islam, since 9/11. He has already exposed fallacies in much previous research in that area and is currently working with Professor Rodney Stark at the University of Massachusetts on the relationship of paradox and of gender differences across those two religions, using, among other resources, data from the World Values Surveys.

MISCELLANEOUS Integration: Schumm has explored a variety of topics in addition to the main thrusts of his research, the common denominator being the ability to apply statistics to novel situations in order to assess creative hypotheses. Notably, one report was awarded a prize as the second best paper of the year (Schumm & Webb, 1995) by the Defense Transportation Journal for a statistical analysis of transportation operations for the redeployment from the first Persian Gulf War. Another report (Schumm, 1986) was an earlier article (Schumm, 1985) reprinted in its entirety by a British military journal. And yet again, another conceptual analysis (Schumm, 1986) published in one military journal was reprinted in its entirely in yet another military journal (Schumm, 1987). Thus, Schumm’s conceptual and statistical research, even in relatively minor areas, has been recognized for its excellence, both inside and outside of the United States.

XHT1097 Provided to you by: Karen Delahaut, UW-Madison Fresh Market Vegetable Program Recently, several commonly-used insecticides for the control of insects in home vegetable gardens have been taken off the market. As a result, it’s becoming ever more challenging for home gardeners to find suitable insecticide products at garden centers, discount stores, and hardware stores.
Senator Loren Legarda Senator Legarda is the only female senator who topped the Senate race twice, with more than 15 million votes in 1998 and 18.4 million votes in 2007. As the only woman to become majority leader, Senator Loren Legarda authored the country’s landmark legislation (1) for the environment (RA 8749- Clean Air Act; RA 9003- the Solid Waste Management Act; RA 10121:
