In recent years, mediation has become an increasingly used approach to the resolution of interpersonal conflict (Coogler, Weber, & McKenry, 1979; Haynes, 1981; Jenkins & Steiner, 1980; Lowenberg & Forgach, undated; Ray, 1983; Schwebel, Moreland, Steinkohl, Lentz, & Stewart, 1982; Shonholtz, 1981).…”

Psychological/mediation intervention (PA/7), a form of single-session psychotherapy, is presented as a flexible approach suitable for use in a variety of situations involving interpersonal conflict. The dual objectives are first, resolution of the immediate conflict, and second, as a preventatiue measure, alteration of the interactional pattern that gave rise to the difficulties.PMI is contrasted with three types of increasingly used forms of mediationdivorce, issue centered, and neighborhood. The procedures of PMI, designed to meet the two objectives, are described and illustrated for each of its six stages.Mediation is a generic term used to describe approaches to the handling of human conflict in which an outside party (mediator) is invited to help others resolve their differences. The mediator, who remains neutral in the disputes, has no decisionmaking powers but, rather, works to promote cooperation between the disputants so they can develop what they consider to be suitable solutions.

“…Sometimes, however, the experience of success encourages them to work toward contact and a higher quality of "circumscribed mutuality." Therapists can help the ex-spouses in this effort by using mediation counseling techniques to teach them to communicate and problem.solve more effectively, as discussed by Schwebel, Moreland, Steinkohl, Lentz, and Stewart (1982).…”

Using an event-listing approach, this study examined the personal and societal future orientations of 15-year-old males and females in Singapore and Sydney. Three aspects were examined: content, affect, and time span. Overall, the study found that adolescents perceived their personal and societal features in separate noninterlocking planes, seeing more pleasant, proximal, personal futures, and more unpleasant, distal, societal futures, especially in relation to nuclear war and political problems. Demographic and personal construct variables influenced this general pattern of future orientation.
