Investigated problem-solving and conflict-resolution strategies, an important aspect of family functioning, in visually impaired adolescents and their parents. Visually impaired adolescents were compared to adolescents with spina bifida and a control group of adolescents without disabilities. Parent-adolescent dyads participated in a problem-solving discussion of topics reflecting family disagreement. Videotapes of these discussions were rated for patterns of interaction using the Marital Interaction Coding System (MICS-III). Examination of positive and negative reciprocal patterns of interaction using sequential analyses and contrasting frequencies of specific behavioral codes revealed no differences between groups for adolescents, mothers, and fathers on the problem-solving discussion. Results are discussed in terms of (a) the impact of visual impairment on family functioning and (b) the need to identify those subgroups of visually impaired and their families that may be at heightened risk for maladjustment.
研究了视障青少年及其父母解决问题和冲突的策略，这是家庭功能的一个重要方面。将视障青少年与患有脊柱裂的青少年以及无残疾青少年对照组进行了比较。亲子二元组参与了关于反映家庭分歧主题的问题解决讨论。使用婚姻互动编码系统（MICS-III）对这些讨论的录像带进行互动模式评分。通过序列分析检查互动的正负互惠模式以及对比特定行为代码的频率，结果显示在问题解决讨论中，青少年、母亲和父亲在组间没有差异。从以下方面讨论了结果：（a）视力障碍对家庭功能的影响；（b）识别那些可能存在适应不良高风险的视障亚组及其家庭的必要性。
