Beavers systems model

The Beavers systems model is a dimensionalized approach to the classification of family functioning. It provides for ratings of (1) competence (adaptability) in whole families who are engaged in current task performance and (2) the style of family interaction (centripetal/centrifugal patterns). From a grid of ratings on these two dimensions, a family typology is constructed that is clinically useful and empirically supported.
