“…In addition, “parental concern” and “parental control” factors are associated with the functioning of parents, which in turn reflects the significant role of parents in determining the functioning of families in mainland China. In sum, as stated by Wong et al (2022) , there are two perspectives to conceptualize family functioning, including process-oriented and result-oriented perspectives. The former perspective classifies families into different kinds based on the features of the family (e.g., see Olson’s (2000) Annular Mode model of family functioning), while the latter perspective is mainly concerned with the essential components for the development of healthy families (e.g., see Miller et al’s (2000) McMaster family functioning model).…”

Besides, although there are some existing Chinese family assessment tools, most of them are not comprehensive and only assess either family interaction (e.g., Wu et al, 2017 ) or parenting of Chinese families (e.g., Zhao et al, 2023 ).…”
