Systematic Review of Self‐Report Family Assessment Measures
Published online on November 19, 2015
Abstract
A systematic review of self‐report family assessment measures was conducted with reference to their psychometric properties, clinical utility and theoretical underpinnings. Eight instruments were reviewed: The McMaster Family Assessment Device (FAD); Circumplex Model Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scales (FACES); Beavers Systems Model Self‐Report Family Inventory (SFI); Family Assessment Measure III (FAM III); Family Environment Scale (FES); Family Relations Scale (FRS); and Systemic Therapy Inventory of Change (STIC); and the Systemic Clinical Outcome Routine Evaluation (SCORE). Results indicated that five family assessment measures are suitable for clinical use (FAD, FACES‐IV, SFI, FAM III, SCORE), two are not (FES, FRS), and one is a new system currently under‐going validation (STIC).
Se realizó un análisis sistemático de las escalas de valoración familiar por autoinforme con referencia a sus propiedades psicométricas, utilidad clínica y fundamentos teóricos. Se analizaron ocho instrumentos: El “Instrumento McMaster de evaluación familiar” (McMaster Family Assessment Device, FAD); las “Escalas de evaluación de cohesión y adaptabilidad familiar del modelo circumplejo” (Circumplex Model Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scales, FACES); el “Inventario familiar de autoinforme del modelo de sistemas de Beavers” (Beavers Systems Model Self‐Report Family Inventory, SFI); el “Instrumento de evaluación familiar III” (Family Assessment Measure III, FAM III); la “Escala del entorno familiar” (Family Environment Scale, FES); la “Escala de relaciones familiares” (Family Relations Scale, FRS); y el “Inventario de cambio de la terapia sistémica”(Systemic Therapy Inventory of Change, STIC); y la “Evaluación de rutina de resultados clínicos sistémicos” (Systemic Clinical Outcome Routine Evaluation, SCORE). Los resultados indicaron que cinco instrumentos de evaluación familiar son aptos para uso clínico (FAD, FACES‐IV, SFI, FAM III, SCORE), dos no lo son (FES, FRS), y uno es un sistema nuevo sometido actualmente a validación (STIC).
我们对自我报告家庭评估办法的心理测量学特性,临床有用性和理论基础进行了系统回顾。我们对8个测量工具进行了回顾:麦克马斯特家庭评估工具 (FAD); Circumplex 模型家庭适应性和凝聚力评估尺度 (FACES); Beavers 系统模型自我报告家庭清单 (SFI); 家庭评估办法III (FAMIII); 家庭环境尺度 (FES); 家庭关系尺度 (FRS); 和系统心理治疗变化清单 (STIC); 以及系统临床成果常规评估 (SCORE)。结果表明五个家庭评估办法适合临床应用 (FAD, FACES‐IV, SFI, FAMIII, SCORE), 两个不适合临床应用 (FES, FRS), 一个是目前正在进行确认的新系统(STIC)。
