本研究主要以Minuchin結構學派家庭治療理論爲基礎,探討婚姻衝突、家庭界限與青少年子女適應三者之間的關係,以台北市七所國中一至三年級學生爲研究對象,共計473名。本研究以問卷調查法進行資料蒐集,所使用的工具包括「婚姻衝突量表」、「家庭界限量表」與「柯氏性格量表」。其中,「家庭界限量表」爲研究者自編,以「接近性」與「代間階層性」兩大向度,九個分量表測量家庭界限的樣態。調查所得資料以典型相關分析統計法進行資料分析。本研究的主要發現如下:1.婚姻衝突各個向度構成的X組變項和家庭界限各向度構成的Y組變項之間有三組顯著的典型相關存在。2.家庭界限各個向度構成的X組變項和子女適應各向度構成的Y組變項之間有三組顯著的典型相關存在。3.婚姻衝突、家庭界限各個向度構成的X組變項和子女適應各向度構成的Y組變項之間有三組顯著的典型相關存在。
This study is based on Minuchin Structural approach family theory. The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationships among marital conflict, family boundaries, and early adolescent adjustment. The sample consisted of 473 students from seven junior high schools (ages 13-15) in Taipei. Instruments used in this study include ”Marital Conflict Scales”, ”Family Boundaries Scales”, and ”KMHQ 1998”.
