Análisis de funcionamiento familiar mediante el modelo mcmaster de funcionamiento familiar mmff y propuesta terapéutica bajo el enfoque sistémico.

Abstract

The family is the context in which the affective bonds are established in each subsystem that integrates it. When it maintains a balance in its structure and has the capacity to create an environment that contributes to the personal development of its members, it indicates that it is functional. That is to say, the family functionality is the set of transactional relations that are developed inside the system that provide an own identity. When a mismatch occurs in any of the structural elements, a dysfunction is caused. The clinical case developed belongs to a nuclear family: father, mother and two daughters. Where the paternal figure works most of the time outside the home, the mother is more dedicated to domestic chores, while the interaction between the sisters, is presented when it comes to academic issues. The McMaster Model of Family Functioning designated in 1979, through six dimensions, problem solving, roles, communication, affective responsiveness, affective involvement and behavior control, evaluated the functionality of the clinical case. By applying the APGAR psychometric instrument developed by Dr. Gabriel Smilkstein in 1978, It was corroborated that the family NN, presents a punctual dysfunctionality in the affective responsiveness and control of behaviors. For this reason, the systemic approach allows to deal with these problems, using the restructuring of the limits that will facilitate the group to give a reorganization in their roles, norms and rules. While metaphors, are techniques that will help improve emotional and communicative relationships between family members.
