While the sources of these frustrations may often be social structural and historical, their immediate management is interpersonal and intrapsychic. April Leininger, a postdoctoral fellow at the UCLA Center on Everyday Lives of Families, explores these issues by analyzing videotaped family interactions. She seeks to identify what the most frequent frustrations are (what are the things that are wanted and what proximal factors prevent the satisfaction of these desires) and how these frustrations are responded to by the self and by family members. This research grows out of her dissertation research with Vietnamese American families, in which she examined the role of culture in adult children's experience of and processing of motivational states that conflicted with their parents' wishes.
