Abstract

ABSTRACT This study investigated the relationships between different types of family resilience and various specific forms of family crisis. In recent decades, numerous studies have examined how people manage crisis and how resilience is developed to overcome periods of chaos and disruption. Most of these studies look only at individual cases, or focus on general concepts, theories, or fundamental frameworks addressing the basic interaction between resilience and crisis. This study uses the Family Adjustment and Adaptation Response model (Paterson, 1988) and the Family Strength Index (Orthner et al., 2003) to measure how family resilience relates to different kinds of family crisis. The results show that of the 6 types of family strength which comprise general family resilience, only economic, problem-solving, and family cohesion strength significantly predicted participants’ level of confidence in managing family crisis. Such a discrepancy from the findings of previous work may be explained by cultural factors, which are further discussed in this article.

家庭弹性与家庭危机的关系:基于家庭调整与适应反应模型的中国家庭实证研究

摘要本研究旨在探讨不同类型的家庭弹性与各种特定形式的家庭危机之间的关系。近几十年来，许多研究都在研究人们是如何处理危机的，以及人们是如何培养适应能力来克服混乱和中断时期的。这些研究大多只关注个案，或关注一般概念、理论或基本框架，以解决弹性与危机之间的基本相互作用。本研究采用家庭调整与适应反应模型(Paterson, 1988)和家庭强度指数(Orthner et al.， 2003)来衡量家庭弹性与不同类型家庭危机的关系。结果表明，在一般家庭弹性的6种类型的家庭力量中，只有经济、问题解决和家庭凝聚力强度显著预测了参与者处理家庭危机的信心水平。这种与以往研究结果的差异可以用文化因素来解释，这在本文中将进一步讨论。
