Hi Ultimate Writer,

Structure & Function—Family Theory/Friedman (2003):
STRUCTURE: Refers to how family is organized, and how they relate to each other & to the whole. Four interactive & interrelated dimensions:
1. Role systems
2. Value Systems
3. Communication networks
4. Power Structure
FUNCTION: Refers to how families go about meeting needs of individuals and broader society. Family functions are what a family does. Five family function dimensions:
1. Affective
2. Socialization
3. Reproductive
4. Health care
5. Economic
Additionally…. How a family deals with stress, coping, adaptation, and SPIRITUALITY are all important in our assessments of families.
