“…Overall, evidence from the field of substance abuse/dependence and other addictions is encouraging, although limited and somewhat contradictory. Adolescent substance abuse treatment generally relies on multicomponent interventions and little is known about the potential benefits of adding MFT to these complex protocols (Smith and Hall, ). In addition, the limited impact of MFT on family functioning noted in some studies deserves further investigation.…”

This article provides an updated and comprehensive overview of the empirical literature regarding Multiple Family Therapy (MFT)'s applications to major psychiatric disorders. It shows that MFT's strongest evidence base is for schizophrenia and chronic psychoses, making its psychoeducational model one of the best available practices for these disorders. There is also a growing body of evidence regarding the usefulness of MFT for mood disorders (particularly in children), eating disorders and alcohol‐substance abuse, but more controlled research is needed for these conditions. Other disorders such as anxiety disorders, autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder have been studied in a more anecdotal fashion and require more rigorous investigations. Future research efforts should focus on: (1) the specific advantage of MFT over other active treatment modalities, (2) the comparative efficacy of various MFT models for a given population, and (3) MFT's change processes. Practitioner points McFarlane's psychoeducational MFT model is considered best practice for schizophrenia and other psychoses (and possibly mood disorders), facilitated by its manual‐based approach The Maudsley model is a valuable treatment for adolescent anorexia nervosa. Family therapists who are less ED‐focused in their interventions can also use more generic MFT models MFT practitioners should attempt to operationalize their MFT model and include an evaluation component in their therapeutic implementation

“…It is common for troublesome situations with youths to involve alcohol or drugs, and when these events arise, the presence of family and adult members of the community can have a positive effect on antisocial attitudes and continued substance abuse. Within these single, extended, or multiple family circles, Smith and Hall's (2010) Strengths Oriented Family Therapy (SOFT) can be blended into the group processes to address relevant topics Downloaded by [McGill University Library] at 06:10 28 November 2014 like giving and receiving feedback, listening assertively, giving and receiving constructive criticism, coping with peer influences, building healthy relationships, fighting fairly, managing stress and addressing future substance use and abuse. Overall group processes are strengthened when these subjects are combined with culturally-relevant structures, ceremonies, and values.…”

This article describes some of the risks and challenges faced by Aboriginal youth living in Canadian cities. It evaluates four current drug prevention/education programs for this group and other at-risk youth. The lessons learned from these strategies lead to a proposal for a reflective education approach directed toward opening meaningful dialogue about drugs and alcohol with urbanAboriginal youths in group settings. The objectives of the approach are to create an open dialogue with youths, enhance problemsolving skills, minimize harm, and initiate a process of reflection about the role of drugs in the lives of young people. The goal is for the proposed approach to be implemented in various group contexts, including classrooms, workshops, talking circles, treatment centers and sports clubs. The article also explores the practice and policy dimensions of prevention-focused social work with Aboriginal youth.

Bireylerin iyilik halleri üzerinde ciddi sorunlar yaratan kronik hastalıklar, çoğunlukla yaşam boyu devam eden tedavini sürecini gerektirmektedir. Bu durum, bireylerin aile yaşamları üzerinde önemli etkiler yaratmaktadır. Hastalık gibi aile yaşam döngüsünün seyri üzerindeki bu etkiler karşısında ailenin karşılaştıkları yeni ve farklı durumlarda sağlıklı olarak işlevini sürdürmesi gereklidir. Bu işlevin yerine getirilmesinde de çoklu aile grubu terapisi son yıllarda dikkat çeken uygulama alanlarından biri olmuştur. Çoklu aile grubu terapisi, özellikle kronik hastalıkların bulunduğu ailelerde grup ortamında birden fazla ailenin görüldüğü terapiyi tanımlamak için kullanılan bir terimdir. Bu çalışmada çoklu aile grubu terapisi temel kavramları ve uygulama alanları çerçevesinde ele alınmaktadır.
