23-1 Capturing the Dynamic Picture of Family System: A Research Example of Exploring the Adolescent’s Autonomy in a Family
The purpose of this study is to propose a paradigm of using a research method which can capture the dynamic of the family system from the standpoint of the family counseling practitioner and researcher. The autonomous performance of adolescents in the family was the focus of the present investigation in order to demonstrate how the family coped with it and how it was related to family relationships. Initially, we explore the essence and the features of the adolescent autonomy, and discussion in the epistemological and methodological concepts of the family system research. Second, the article investigates problems of the family research methodology related to sampling, data collection, and analysis. Finally, one family example is presented to illustrate the steps of conducting family system research and results of analysis are reported.
