The family functioning of 30 nonhandicapped and 30 learning handicapped adolescents and their parents was examined. Measures of adaptability, cohesion, and communication were taken from the parent and the adolescent perspectives. Parent and adolescent perspectives on these areas of functioning were analyzed with a cluster analytic technique, which resulted in five distinct profiles of family functioning. These statistical groupings were confirmed by information gathered through participant observation from an accompanying investigation. The nature of the five clusters confirmed the existence of similar family functioning across the nonhandicapped and learning handicapped groups. Additionally, variations in reaction and adjustment to the amount of structure in the family environment by different families was documented. The importance of considering adolescent and parent perspectives separately was highlighted.
研究了 30 名非残疾和 30 名学习障碍青少年及其父母的家庭功能。从父母和青少年的角度测量了适应性、凝聚力和沟通能力。使用聚类分析技术对这些功能领域的父母和青少年观点进行了分析,结果得出了五个不同的家庭功能特征。通过伴随调查的参与者观察收集的信息证实了这些统计分组的存在。五个聚类的性质证实了非残疾和学习障碍群体之间存在相似的家庭功能。此外,还记录了不同家庭对家庭环境结构数量的反应和调整的差异。强调了分别考虑青少年和父母观点的重要性。
