本文描述了一份简短调查问卷的开发和实证检验,该调查问卷用于评估有情感障碍的孩子的家庭的赋权。该问卷基于源自文献的二维赋权概念框架。一个维度反映了对家庭、服务体系以及更大的社区和政治环境的赋权;另一个维度反映了赋权的态度、知识和行为的表达。本文概述了调查问卷的概念基础,描述了其发展,并根据 440 名家庭成员的回答进行了信度和效度分析。讨论了该仪器在研究和服务提供方面的应用。家庭赋权越来越被视为改善残疾儿童家庭服务的核心目标。这一概念的出现反映了消费者、实践和研究界的最新发展。这些发展包括强调自助和自力更生的消费者运动的发展(Moxley, Raider, & Cohen, 1989),注重家庭优势而不是缺陷的实践模式的广泛应用(Cochran, 1987; Dunst, Trivette, & Deal, 1988; Poertner & Ronnau, 1992),将赋权价值观明确纳入公共政策和计划中。 (Gallagher、Trohanis 和 Clifford,1989;Stroul 和 Friedman,1988),并且人们越来越认识到可以通过促进或抑制自我效能的方式提供服务(Bandura,1977、1982;Dunst 和 Paget,1991;Dunst 和 Trivette,1987)。家庭赋权的概念还受益于许多不同学科同时关注一个想法的协同效应。事实上,所有为残疾儿童家庭提供服务的专业人士都在某种程度上采用了这一概念,因此它开始成为跨学科的共同价值观。康复心理学卷。 37, No.4, 1992 © 1992 美国心理协会康复心理学分部 由 Springer Publishing Company, Inc. 出版, 536 Broadway, New York, NY 10012
This paper describes the development and empirical examination of a brief questionnaire for assessing empowerment in families whose children have emotional disabilities. The questionnaire is based on a two-dimensional conceptual framework of empowerment derived from the literature. One dimension reflects empowerment with respect to the family, service system, and larger community and political environment; the other dimension reflects the expression of empowerment as attitudes, knowledge, and behaviors. The paper outlines the questionnaire's conceptual basis, describes its development, and presents analyses of reliability and validity based on 440 responses of family members. Applications of the instrument in both research and service delivery are discussed. Family empowerment is increasingly seen as a central goal of efforts to improve services for families whose children have disabilities. The emergence of this concept reflects recent developments in the consumer, practice, and research communities. Among these developments are the growth of the consumer movement with its emphasis on self-help and self-reliance (Moxley, Raider, & Cohen, 1989), the widespread application ofpractice models that focus on family strengths rather than deficits (Cochran, 1987; Dunst, Trivette, & Deal, 1988; Poertner & Ronnau, 1992), the explicit incorporation of empowerment values within public policies and programs (Gallagher, Trohanis, & Clifford, 1989; Stroul & Friedman, 1988), and the increasing recognition that services can be delivered in ways that either promote or inhibit self-efficacy (Bandura, 1977, 1982; Dunst & Paget, 1991; Dunst & Trivette, 1987). The concept of family empowerment has also benefited from the synergistic effect that comes from many different disciplines focusing on one idea at the same time. Virtually all the helping professions that serve families of children with disabilities have adopted this concept to some degree, and thus it is beginning to emerge as a common value across disciplines.
