“…Another difficulty leading to confusion is that the family, with increased frequency, was coming to be viewed by Jackson et al . as a system per se rather than as a construct based on a systems analogy (102; 126; 169; 140; 146; 65, p. 278; 66; 184). This shift, which was at first a subtle one, is particularly reflected in Haley's classic article, “The Family of a Schizophrenic: A Model System” (60), as well as several of his studies on family patterns (62, 69, 66, 74, 76, 184).…”

This article presents an overview of the primary contributions of the late Don D. Jackson. It analyzes and attempts to unify the central concepts of what the first referred to as "conjoint family therapy."

“…The utilization of the Interpersonal System in rating family interaction seems to fit particularly well into a communicational frame of reference, such as described by Jackson, Riskin, and Satir (7), and Riskin (21). Within this frame of reference it is assumed that the pattern of relationship messages established in a family is related to the self concepts and expectations of the individuals within the family.…”

“…Broderick (1993) viewed family rules as one of six major characteristics found in open, ongoing family systems. Riskin (1963) suggests that rules that govern family behavior are rarely explicit or written down. They are instead implicit—the “unwritten law” is what governs most families.…”

Family environment has been shown to be one of the factors related to the presence of eating disorders among young-adult females. Clinical experience and theories about eating disorders postulate that implicit family rules are an intricate part of family process that may have a great effect on the creation and maintenance of such problems. This study compared implicit family process rules (specifically rules pertaining to kindness; expressiveness and connection; constraining thoughts, feelings, and self; inappropriate caretaking; and monitoring) in families with a young-adult female diagnosed with an eating disorder-either anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, or eating disorder not otherwise specified-and families with a young-adult female without an eating disorder diagnosis. One hundred two families (51 eating disordered and 51 comparison) participated in the study. Mothers, fathers, young-adult female children, and siblings completed the Family Implicit Rules Profile (Harper, Stoll, & Larson, 2007). Results indicated that eating-disordered families are governed by a greater proportion of constraining family rules than are non-eating-disordered families. Additionally, eating-disordered youth reported a lower proportion of facilitative family rules and a higher proportion of constraining family rules than did parents and siblings. Theoretical, research, and clinical implications are discussed.
