Abstract

Background/Objectives: Family spirituality is an important concept in family nursing that reinforces the meaning of the family's existence. However, no studies on specific family intervention methods have been conducted to date. The purpose of this study was to verify the effect of family interventions using the family life review (FLR) program on changes to family spirituality. Methods: An FLR was conducted on six families having older adult members and undergoing family spiritual suffering, with two sessions spaced one week apart. The FLR was conducted using the Plot of Family Story (PFS), a tool for reviewing family history based on the concentric sphere family environment theory (CSFET). Semi-structured interviews and scoring using the Family Spirituality Index were conducted based on CSFET at three points in time: first before, and then after, the FLR, then again one month later, and changes in family spirituality were analyzed using mixed methods. Results: The families encountered family spiritual suffering in the family internal environment system, family system unit, and chrono system according to the CSFET. The FLR, when used with the PFS, was able to maintain, enhance, confer, and actualize family spirituality corresponding to the spiritual suffering being experienced by the target families. Conclusions: Family intervention through an FLR using the PFS can improve family spirituality in families undergoing family spiritual suffering. In this study, the PFS became a legacy for the family and raised awareness of the value of their existence.

家庭生活回顾对家庭干预的影响。

背景/目的：家庭灵性是家庭护理中的一个重要概念，它强化了家庭存在的意义。然而，目前还没有关于具体家庭干预方法的研究。本研究的目的是验证家庭生活回顾（FLR）计划对家庭灵性改变的影响。方法：采用FLR法对6个有老年人且正经历家庭精神痛苦的家庭进行调查，两次调查间隔一周。本研究采用基于同心圆家庭环境理论（CSFET）的家族史回顾工具——家庭故事情节（Plot of Family Story， PFS）进行。采用半结构化访谈和家庭灵性指数评分，分别在FLR之前、之后和一个月后三个时间点进行，并采用混合方法分析家庭灵性的变化。结果：根据CSFET，家庭在家庭内部环境系统、家庭系统单元和时间系统中遭遇家庭精神痛苦。当FLR与PFS一起使用时，能够维持、增强、授予和实现与目标家庭所经历的精神痛苦相对应的家庭灵性。结论：通过FLR进行家庭干预可以改善家庭精神痛苦家庭的精神状态。在这项研究中，PFS成为家庭的遗产，并提高了对其存在价值的认识。
