Question: 1 / 220

What is a perspective on family functioning that emphasizes interconnections among different family relationships such as marital, parent-child, and sibling relationships?

Family Systems Theory

Family Systems Theory is the correct answer. Family Systems Theory is a perspective on family functioning that emphasizes the interconnections among different family relationships, such as marital, parent-child, and sibling relationships. It views the family as a system in which each member plays a unique role and the interactions among members affect the functioning of the entire family unit. This approach helps social workers understand how changes in one part of the family system can impact other parts of the system.

The other options, Change Agents, Four Stages of Interviewing, and Nine Domains of Child Well-Being, do not specifically refer to the interconnectedness of different family relationships as emphasized in Family Systems Theory.
