Comparing the Circumplex Model and the Paradigmatic Framework
The circumplex model of marital and family systems (Olson et al., 1979) was developed to bridge the gap between theory, research, and clinical practice (Olson et al., 1989). The Circumplex Model (CM) is based on theoretical ideas from a variety of theorists and researchers who have worked independently (see Olson et al., 2019 for a comprehensive list). From this work, a conceptual clustering of over 200 concepts from both the general and family s…
Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems
This article provides an overview of the Circumplex Model and how it was developed and describes the three major dimensions (cohesion, flexibility, and communication) and how they were used to create the model. There are three major hypotheses and two assessments (FACES IV and the Clinical Rating Scale) used to test the hypotheses. The model is useful for describing couple and family systems and for plotting how they change over time. The model i…
Faces IV and the Circumplex Model
Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale (FACES) IV was developed to tap the full continuum of the cohesion and flexibility dimensions from the Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems. Six scales were developed, with two balanced scales and four unbalanced scales designed to tap low and high cohesion (disengaged and enmeshed) and flexibility (rigid and chaotic). The six scales in FACES IV were found to be reliable and valid. High …
Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems
The Circumplex Model focuses on the three central dimensions of marital and family systems: cohesion, flexibility and communication. The major hypothesis of the Circumplex Model is that balanced couple and family systems tend to be more functional compared to unbalanced systems. In over 250 studies using the Family Adaptability and Cohesion Scales (FACES), a linear self‐report measure, strong support has been found for this hypothesis. In several…
Enrich Marital Satisfaction Scale
This article presents reliability and validity data for the 15-item ENRICH (evaluation and nurturing relationship issues, communication and happiness) Marital Satisfaction (EMS) Scale. The scale was found to be reliable and to have strong correlations with other measures of marital satisfaction and moderate relationships with measures of family satisfaction and consideration of divorce. The EMS Scale offers an important alternative to researchers…

Circumplex Model VII
This paper reviews some of the recent empirical studies validating the Circumplex Model and describes the newly developed self‐report measure, FACES III. Studies testing hypotheses derived from the Circumplex Model regarding the three dimensions of cohesion, change, and communication are reviewed. Case illustrations using FACES III and the Clinical Rating Scale are presented. These two assessment tools can be used for making a diagnosis of family…
Parent-Adolescent Communication and the Circumplex Model
BARNES, HOWARD L., and OLSON, DAVID H. Parent-Adolescent Communication and the Circumplex Model. CHILD DEVELOPMENT, 1985, 56, 438-447. This study tested the relationship between parentadolescent communication and the Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems. While most studies of the Circumplex Model have focused on problem families, this study used fathers, mothers, and adolescents from 426 normal families. Family scores were developed and…

Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems
This paper updates the theoretical work on the Circumplex Model and provides revised and new hypotheses. Similarities and contrasts to the Beavers Systems Model are made along with comments regarding Beavers and Voeller's critique. FACES II, a newly revised assessment tool, provides both “perceived” and “ideal” family assessment that is useful empirically and clinically.
Assessing Intimacy
PAIR, acronym for Personal Assessment of Intimacy in Relationships, was developed as a tool for educators, researchers and therapists. PAIR provides systematic information on five types of intimacy: emotional, social, sexual, intellectual and recreational. Individuals, married or unmarried, describe their relationship in terms of how they currently perceive it (perceived) and how they would like it to be (expected). PAIR can be used with couples …

Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems
The conceptual clustering of numerous concepts from family therapy and other social science fields reveals two significant dimensions of family behavior, cohesion and adaptability. These two dimensions are placed into a circumplex model that is used to identify 16 types of marital and family systems. The model proposes that a balanced level of both cohesion and adaptability is the most functional to marital and family development. It postulates t…

A Diagnostic Tool for Marital and Family Therapy
Although marital and family therapists seek to treat the interactional pattern of a family rather than focus exclusively on personality dynamics, there are few diagnostic tools which provide objective data on marital and family interaction processes. If the family therapists have attempted to make a diagnosis using standardized tests, they probably have relied on traditional instrments such as the MMPI, the Rorschach, or the TAT. Thus, even thoug…
Validity of Four Measures of Family Power
This validity study compares four measures of family power (predicted power, process power, retrospective power, and authority) with a criterion measure of outcome power and none of these four variables proved valid. The interrelationship between all four measures was also compared. The only relationship found was that authority was related to both process power and retrospective power. While it was found that individuals were not able to report …

Inventory of Marital Conflicts (IMC)
The IMC is an interaction technique which was developed to provide valid and reliable interaction data on decision-making processes and conflict resolution in couples. The IMC consists of 18 vignettes which present various types of marital conflicts that are generally relevant to couples. The IMC has several advantages compared to other marital interaction techniques and a new 29-category coding system has been developed to score the interaction …

Separating and joining influences in courtship and early marriage
Transitional processes, such as getting married, are described in terms of the interaction of change-facilitating and change-resisting social forces. Lawful features of a transitional process include a non-arbitrary sequence of stages defined by reversals in the influence of particular classes of third party events
