Abstract

Despite burgeoning research about family distancing, researchers have yet to operationalize any family distancing construct. This paper describes the development and validation of a new measure operationalizing three components of family member marginalization (i.e., difference, disapproval, and exclusion). We evaluated the Family Member Marginalization Measure (FM3) using data from college students (Study 1; N = 191) and self-identified marginalized family members (Study 2; N = 285). Confirmatory factor analyses verified the three dimensions of perceived family member marginalization and the 39-item FM3 proved both reliable and valid. Potential applications of the scale and avenues for future research are discussed.

家庭成员边缘化测量（FM3）的发展和验证：差异、不赞成和排斥维度

尽管关于家庭距离的研究正在蓬勃发展，但研究人员尚未将任何家庭距离构建付诸实践。本文描述了一项新措施的制定和验证，该措施将家庭成员边缘化的三个组成部分（即差异、反对和排斥）付诸实施。我们使用大学生（研究1；N=191）和自我认同的边缘化家庭成员（研究2；N=285）的数据评估了家庭成员边缘化测量（FM3）。验证性因素分析验证了感知家庭成员边缘化的三个维度，39项FM3被证明是可靠和有效的。讨论了该规模的潜在应用和未来研究的途径。
