A family's perception of a treatment program may determine whether ir becomes productively engaged or destructively withdrawn. A theory of family types, in conjunction with a standardized laboratory problem solving procedure, was used to predict the nature of families' shared perceptions of a psychiatric ward. The individual and shared perceptions of thirty families were determined by means of a specially designed Q-sort. Two dimensions of problem solving behavior successfully predicted significant differences between families in their shared perceptions. Configuration, or the family's capacity to derive effective solutions in the laboratory, predicted the subtlety to their perception of the ward. Coordination, or the capacity of family members to dovetail their problem solving effort with one another, predicted the family's sense of comfort and engagement in the ward setting.
一个家庭对治疗方案的看法可能决定其是积极参与还是消极退出。结合标准化的实验室问题解决程序，运用一种家庭类型理论来预测家庭对精神科病房共同看法的性质。通过专门设计的Q分类法确定了30个家庭的个体看法和共同看法。问题解决行为的两个维度成功预测了家庭在共同看法上的显著差异。结构，即家庭在实验室中得出有效解决方案的能力，预测了他们对病房看法的微妙程度。协调性，即家庭成员彼此配合解决问题的能力，预测了家庭在病房环境中的舒适感和参与度。
