“…Minuchin [21] described in great detail the devel opment of anorexia nervosa and its relationship to intricate family dynam ics. Liebman et al [14] observed that families of chronic pain patients demonstrated a high level of enmeshment, rigidity, over-protectiveness, and poor problem-solving capability. They had little or no regard for the autonomy or privacy of each individual.…”

This paper attempts to review the relevant literature pertaining to the family issues in chronic pain. To begin with, a rationale is developed for adopting a family approach to the understanding of physical and psychosomatic disorders. Pain literature is examined to demonstrate the significance of family factors in the etiology, perpetuation and treatment of chronic pain. Overall research in this entire field remains somewhat weak and thus the findings are of a tentative nature. On the other hand, the clinical significance of family factors in chronic pain are critical and cannot be ignored. The need for better designed research in this field is of utmost importance.

“…* Many other studies which have been published suffer from poor research design, and the claimed results require substantiation. For example, the Philadelphia team have reported outcome studies of family therapy for a variety of childhood problems (Minuchin, Baker, Rosman, Liebman, Milman and Todd, 1975 ;Liebman, Honig and Berger, 1976), but exclude details of the methodology, fail to define criteria for improvement, and have not used control groups. This is disappointing because the results claimed are spectacular.…”

“…La première intervention thérapeutique consista à fixer la tâche suivante : la fillette devait noter chaque jour sur une feuille les heures où elle avait mal à l'estomac et devait la montrer à son père (Liebman et al, 1976;White, 1979). Ce dernier devait décider quand elle devait ou ne devait pas aller à l'école.…”

Dans cet article, l'auteure démontre à l'aide d'exemples cliniques que la thérapie familiale ne doit pas uniquement considérer le symptôme comme l'expression d'un problème familial. Elle doit se centrer sur celui-ci, s'il compromet sérieusement le développement de l'enfant ou est le seul moyen d'obtenir la coopération de la famille dans le traitement, par exemple, des cas de phobie de l'école, de cysténose et d'anorexie nerveuse. Dans les cas où le symptôme ne compromet pas le développement immédiat de l'enfant, celui-ci peut être considéré comme un signal de détresse et l'intervention du thérapeute portera alors sur les modèles transactionnels et les règles familiales sous-jacentes.In this article, the author demonstrates, using clinical examples, that family therapy must not consider the symptom uniquely as the expression of the family problem. Therapy must focus on it, if the symptom seriously compromises the child's development, or if it is the sole means of obtaining the family's cooperation in the treatment, as in the case of school phobia, of cystenosia, and of anorexia nervosa. In cases in which the symptom does not compromise the child's immediate development, it can be considered as a distress signal and the intervention of the therapist will then direct itself at the interactional models and the underlying family rule
