Abstract
The Problem-Solving construct was designed to assess family problem-solving skills as observed in a laboratory setting. Families were asked to discuss two of their own problems, one selected by the child and one by the parents, and attempt to resolve them. The interactions, which lasted 10 minutes each, were videotaped and later scored by coders trained in the Solving Problems in Family Interactions coding system (Forgatch, Fetrow, & Lathrop, 1984b).
