Abstract
Having an Eye for Families? - Standardized Family Diagnostics in Socialpediatric Centres In socialpediatric centres (SPZ) children and adolescents with mental and/or physical disorders/impairments are diagnosed and treated together with their families. This cross-sectional study researches to what extent standardized family diagnostic questionnaires are used in this context. One third of the 152 German SPZ participated in this questionnaire study (N = 50). While nearly all SPZ use intelligence tests (98 %) and symptom questionnaires (100 %) (s. Sydow u. Homes, in prep.), family diagnostic is applied remarkably seldom in German socialpediatric centres up to now: Only 14 of 28 family questionnaires whose use we had evaluated systematically, ever were used by the participating SPZs. Implications for research and clinical practice are derived.
