The study investigated whether sex differences exist in the perception of family cohesion and adaptability in various types of marital configurations as reported through the Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scales III (FACES). Analysis of variance (ANO-VAs) revealed that sex in interaction with educational level had a higher incidence of predicting ideal family adaptability score. The study highlighted the effects of level of education on perceptions of family functioning and brings to light the importance of considering educational level when interpreting the results of the FACES III for clinical purposes.

Abstract This paper describes when and how reversal strategies can be used within the school setting to modify problematic student behavior. Three common problem situations are described in which reversal strategies might appropriately be applied. In addition, guidelines are provided for introducing school helping professionals to the use of this class of change tactics.

ABSTRACT The authors describe an application of the Mental Research Institute (MRI) brief therapy model for working with schoolchildren who either do not want to change or feel they cannot change their problematic behavior. This short‐term, problem‐focused approach centers on changing the cycles of interaction surrounding a student's problem, in which school staff and/or family members may be engaged. Assumptions undergirding this approach are described along with specific working procedures.

ABSTRACT Asserts that ecosystemic (ES) therapy can be approached from 2 different epistemological perspectives, each of which provides a different way of thinking about the nature of human systems, the way problems develop, and the means by which a mental health counselor understands and works within these systems. The 1st-order view is demonstrated by family counselors and therapists who operate from outside of a client system in order to more effectively analyze inputs and outputs from the systems observed. In the 2nd-order ES view, the treatment unit is conceptualized as consisting of both the family mental health observer and the observed (client system) bound together as an "observing system." A case of a boy seen at age 12 yrs and again at age 15 yrs with his parents illustrates the different thought rules and actions underlying these perspectives and their relevance to family mental health counseling using ES therapy.

Explores the premise that family systems factors (family characteristics and structure) influence the likelihood of referral follow-up and success, noting that many families fail to follow through on referrals to nonschool agencies made by school psychologists. Family systems theories describing how families support child behavior problems and how family hierarchies influence the decision to follow through on referrals are discussed. It is argued that since the burden for referral follow-through is on the family, psychologists who ignore family systems parameters reduce the likelihood of referral success. It is recommended that school psychologists identify family hierarchies, negotiate support for referrals from family decision-makers, and establish a supra-system spanning family and school systems to increase referral efficacy.
