The genogram, or family diagram, is an assessment tool widely used by clinicians to study family members and their relationships over several generations. The standard genogram format is limited, however, because it does not show temporal patterns directly. An alternative, the Time-Line Genogram (TLG), which plots time on the vertical axis to display life events and changes in relationships when they actually occurred, highlights temporal aspects of family history that the standard format sometimes obscures.
系谱图，或称家庭图谱，是临床医生广泛使用的一种评估工具，用于研究几代家庭成员及其关系。然而，标准系谱图格式存在局限性，因为它不能直接显示时间模式。另一种选择是时间线系谱图（TLG），它将时间绘制在纵轴上，以展示生活事件以及关系变化实际发生的时间，突出了标准格式有时会模糊的家族史中的时间方面。
