This review discusses actual results of family-oriented medical sociology in the Federal Republic of Germany in relation to Anglo-American findings. Recently the paradigm of family theory has changed also in the Federal Republic of Germany from considering the family as a disturbing factor, to interpreting it as a system of support. In dealing with the contemporary research, now centered around social support by the family as well as by an extended social network, possible inconsistencies of terms like family dynamics, structure and system are discussed. A final methodological discussion shows that results depend on the methods. This leads to a possible concept of a pattern of research which is better adapted to the family as a whole.
本综述讨论了德意志联邦共和国面向家庭的医学社会学的实际成果，并与英美的研究结果进行了比较。最近，德意志联邦共和国的家庭理论范式也发生了变化，从将家庭视为一个干扰因素，转变为将其解释为一个支持系统。在探讨围绕家庭以及扩展社交网络提供的社会支持展开的当代研究时，讨论了诸如家庭动态、结构和系统等术语可能存在的不一致之处。最后的方法学讨论表明，研究结果取决于方法。这促成了一种可能的研究模式概念，该模式更适合于作为一个整体的家庭。
