“…Good reliability and validity of the SSRS were reported [33]. In this sample, Crohnbach's alphas were 0.91 (ages 6-12) and 0.89 (ages 13-18) for the parent version and 0.93 (ages 6-12) and 0.90 (ages [13][14][15][16][17][18] for the teacher version.…”

Objective: To assess factors that, in addition to childhood psychopathology, are associated with Quality of Life (QoL) in children with psychiatric problems. Methods: In a referred sample of 252 8 to 18-year-olds, information concerning QoL, psychopathology and a broad range of child, parent, and family/ social network factors was obtained from children, parents, teachers and clinicians. Results: Poor child, parent, and clinician reported QoL was associated with child psychopathology, but given the presence of psychopathology, also with child factors, such as low self-esteem, and poor social skills, and family/social network factors, such as poor family functioning, and poor social support. In multiple linear regression analyses the importance of parent factors, such as parenting stress, was almost negligible. Conclusion: To increase QoL of children with psychiatric problems, treatment of symptoms is important, but outcome might improve if treatment is also focussed on other factors that may affect QoL. Results are discussed in relation to current treatment programs.

“…Further, at the family/ social network level, the association between QoL and family functioning and stressful life events was studied. Previous studies reported a correlation between these factors and level of psychopathology [17,18]. However, the relation between QoL and these factors is still unknown.…”

“…The importance of investigating a range of family relationships (e.g., mother-child, father-child, and mother-father relationships) in the prediction of child outcomes has been noted by previous researchers (e.g. Mathijssen et al 1998), and we acknowledge our inability to do this as a limitation in this work.…”

This study investigated the prospective, longitudinal relations between parental behaviors observed during parent-adolescent interactions, and the development of depression and anxiety symptoms in a community-based sample of 194 adolescents. Positive and negative parental behaviors were examined, with negative behaviors operationalized to distinguish between observed parental expressions of aggression and dysphoria. Results showed that higher levels of parental aggression prospectively predicted higher levels of both depression and anxiety symptoms in adolescents over two-and-a-half years, whereas higher levels of positive parental behaviors prospectively predicted lower levels of depression symptoms only. Parental dysphoric behavior was not related to changes in either symptom dimension. These results suggest that patterns of parental behaviors may be differentially associated with depressive versus anxious outcomes in adolescents, and highlight the potential role for family-focused prevention or treatment interventions aimed at reducing an escalation of depression and anxiety symptoms in adolescence.

ResumoObjetivo: Verificar quais instrumentos têm sido utilizados na avaliação do funcionamento familiar no âmbito da saúde mental. Método: Revisão sistemática da literatura de acordo com as normas Cochrane nas bases de dados Medline, PubMed e PsycInfo, no período de janeiro de 1990 a julho de 2009. Foram considerados artigos nos idiomas inglês, português e espanhol que apresentassem a utilização de escalas, questionários e entrevistas na avaliação da relação familiar no contexto da saúde mental. Os resumos deveriam especificar o nome do instrumento utilizado, com aplicação em pelo menos dois membros da família, e apresentar objetivo, metodologia e resultados. As palavras-chave utilizadas foram: "family functioning" e "assessment" e "psychiatry". Resultados: A partir de 1.162 artigos, foram selecionados 20. Os instrumentos encontrados foram: Family Assessment Device (FAD), Family Environment Scale (FES), Family Assessment Measure (FAM) e Family Adaptability Cohesion Evaluation Scale III (FACES III). Os aspectos mais relacionados com disfunção familiar foram: desempenho de papéis, valores e normas, comunicação, envolvimento afetivo e resolução de problemas. A melhora do funcionamento familiar foi associada à recuperação do paciente com transtorno mental. Conclusão: A utilização de instrumentos de avaliação familiar pode contribuir para o planejamento de intervenções terapêu-ticas e na reabilitação em saúde mental.

Souza AbstractObjective: To determine which instruments have been used in the assessment of family functioning in the context of mental health. Method: Systematic review according to Cochrane standards in databases: Medline, PubMed and PsycInfo from January 1990 to July 2009. We considered articles in English, Portuguese and Spanish who presented the use of scales, questionnaires and interviews in the assessment of family relationship in the context of mental health. The abstract should specify the name of the instrument, applying at least two family members, to present objective, methodology and results. The keywords used were: family functioning and assessment and psychiatry. Results: This study found 1,162 articles and 20 were selected. The instruments cited were: Family Assessment Device (FAD), Family Environment Scale (FES), Family Assessment Measure (FAM) Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale III (FACES III). The most families dysfunctions were related to: the performance of roles, norms and values, communication, affective involvement and problem resolution. The improvement of family functioning was associated with recovery of patients with mental disorders. Discussion: The use of family assessment instruments can contribute to the planning of therapeutic interventions and rehabilitation in mental health.
