Description
The FAM-III is unique in its ability to provide a multilevel (within family) assessment of family functioning across seven universal clinical parameters and two validity scales. The FAM-III's capacity for differentiation makes it suited for clinical assessment and monitoring response to treatment.
Features
Based on the Process Model of Family Functioning, the FAM-III can be completed by pre-adolescent, adolescent and adult family members.
It consists of three types of forms:
- 50-item General Scale - examines overall family health
- 42-item Dyadic Relationship Scale - examines how a family member views his or her relationship with another family member
- 42-item Self-Rating Scale - allows each person to rate his or her own functioning within the family
By comparing the three scales to each other, you obtain a rich picture of how family members view levels of family interaction.
The seven parameters are:
- Task Accomplishment
- Communication
- Role Performance
- Social Desirability
- Control
- Affective Expression
- Defensiveness
- Involvement
- Values and Norms
Reports
The FAM-III may be hand scored. The client's responses are transferred through to a hidden scoring page where you are guided through simple calculations to obtain scores for profiling.
Two types of profiles are available:
- the FAM-III ColorPlot of Family Perceptions is colour coded and present results in an easy-to-understand manner;
- the Progress ColorPlot shows changes in family functioning over time.
