Correspondence of family therapists' perceptions with frcccs coding rules for triadic interactions
Abstract
Family therapy theory, practice, and research across many orientations are concerned with multiperson interactional phenomena such as intercepts, disconfirmations, and indirect communications. This study reports a successful criterion validity test of the rules for coding these triadic features in the Family Relational Communication Control Coding System (FRCCCS) (Friedlander & Heatherington, 1989). Thirty‐five experienced family therapists observed two videotaped family therapy interactions and reported their perceptions of each of 25 communications. These perceptions‐the criterion‐significantly corresponded with the FRCCCS coding rules about the relational control aspects of triadic communications. Discussion focuses on the future use of the FRCCCS in research on family therapy.
