“…The FAD offers clinical utility in identifying levels of satisfaction in multiple domains of family life. Use of the FAD in clinical applications has been discussed elsewhere (Archambault, Mansfield, Evans, & Keitner, ). In addition to offering clinicians an overall view of family members' satisfaction with family life, which can be useful by itself, the FAD offers specific information about areas of satisfaction and dissatisfaction, which may differ between families and between members of the same family.…”

The current study set out to describe family functioning scores of a contemporary community sample, using the Family Assessment Device (FAD), and to compare this to a currently help-seeking sample. The community sample consisted of 151 families who completed the FAD. The help-seeking sample consisted of 46 families who completed the FAD at their first family therapy appointment as part of their standard care at an outpatient family therapy clinic at an urban hospital. Findings suggest that FAD means from the contemporary community sample indicate satisfaction with family functioning, while FAD scores from the help-seeking sample indicate dissatisfaction with family functioning. In addition, the General Functioning scale of the FAD continues to correlate highly with all other FAD scales, except Behavior Control. The cut-off scores for the FAD indicating satisfaction or dissatisfaction by family members with their family functioning continue to be relevant and the FAD continues to be a useful tool to assess family functioning in both clinical and research contexts.

“…Asynchronous, or delayed, telehealth technologies disseminate evidence-based interventions through the self-administration of intervention tools or by providing training materials through recordings of clinical protocols or documents through patient portals and websites (Epstein et al, 2008). Synchronous and asynchronous telehealth technologies show potential for distance training of community-based clinicians in evidence-based treatments of complex disorders (Archambault, Mansfield, Evans, & Keitner, 2014; Davies, Yeung, Mori, & Nixon, 2012; Siminerio, Ruppert, Huber, & Toledo, 2014; Socolovsky et al, 2013). …”

The McMaster Approach is a way of thinking about families, family life, and the ways that families organize themselves to manage daily living. It evolved from its origins at McGill and McMaster Universities in Canada in the 1960s and 1970s under the leadership of Nathan Epstein, to Brown University in the USA where the Family Research Program continues to refine, study, and teach it under the leadership of Gabor Keitner. The McMaster Approach is made up of three interrelated parts: clinical application, research, and training. Treatment evaluates family functioning across six dimensions of family life (the McMaster Model of Family Functioning, MMFF), provides a protocol for assessing how families identify and deal with problems, offers an approach to conducting therapy when problems in family functioning are apparent (The Problem Centered Systems Therapy of the Family, PCSTF), and provides a set of guidelines for managing the treatment process (McMaster Tenets). Research focuses on a set of validated instruments that collect empirical and clinical data on how family members (Family Assessment Device,
