The psychosocial adjustment of patients who are experiencing physical disabilities is examined within the context of a family ecological approach. Historical and sociocultural characteristics of African-American families are delineated and explored in terms of their potentially positive impact on the adjustment process. Four family strengths are delineated: strong kinship bonds, strong religious orientation, family role flexibility, and strong education/work ethic. The authors demonstrate how these various assets interact reciprocally in the family lives of those individuals who are disabled. Contrary to the predominant deficit theories, a fresh asset-oriented approach is provided. A model of the family adjustment process of African-American clients with disabilities is presented, and some of the important strengths of the African-American family system are examined. Finally, a family strengths model is applied to the therapeutic process.
本文从家庭生态视角出发，探讨了身体残疾患者的心理社会调适情况。文章阐述并探究了非裔美国家庭的历史和社会文化特征，以及这些特征对调适过程可能产生的积极影响。文中明确了四项家庭优势：紧密的亲属关系、强烈的宗教信仰倾向、家庭角色的灵活性以及强烈的教育/职业道德观念。作者展示了这些不同的优势资源如何在残疾人士的家庭生活中相互作用。与占主导地位的缺陷理论不同，本文提供了一种全新的以优势为导向的方法。文中呈现了一个针对非裔美国残疾客户的家庭调适过程模型，并审视了非裔美国家庭系统的一些重要优势。最后，一个家庭优势模型被应用于治疗过程。
