The purpose of this study, which is based on family systematic paradigm, is to explore the phenomenon of using multisystem-multimethod to measure family system. The instrument was the scale of Differentiation in the Family System (DIFS). The samples consisted of 77 launching families and one family is including one child who is studying in college or university now, and child’s father and mother. The main findings were as follows: 1. The results revealed that the conjunction of agreement and inconsistency among family members was found in a family. The phenomenon showed that in “ the sameness has the differentness" and between “the differentness has the sameness" and it is the special result of system measurement. 2. It proved thesystem theory including “one adding one are not two", existence of subsystems. 3. Every family member has different perception to the same dyad relationship, so the subject should use the units of whole family, including father, mother, and one child or more. 4. The same members of this family had different perception to different dyad relationship, so the content of instrument should include different dyad. 5. In regard to analyzable methods of family system, the variance is between family members, and it is not adaptation to using average method and variance method. The implications ofthese results for future research of family system measurement, and counseling practice are discussed.
